To be fair, we have a cockatiel and it freaks me out every time it lands on me, but I also don't claim to be some tough guy. This guy is a colossal sally.

 

It just amazes me how much he gets away with. He is such a phony, but some people still buy everything he says even though the evidence shows he isn't about anybody but himself. And maybe Ivanka.

    Jenks, this is the stuff that I'm talking about in the other thread though.  We can't normalize this type of authoritarian behavior from the President of the United States.  There needs to be forceful

    I will never own a gun. That's my choice. That said; I will never say as an absolute that no one should own guns. There are parts of this country where guns are important for personal protec

    Im with you.  Its all of the politicians.  they are so fucking afraid of the 2A people its shocking.  The amendment is there to make sure only the right people have guns, there are ways to do that.

Yeah, Trump would have gone in there without a weapon. For sure.

 

has admitted to finding the sight of blood “disgusting.” In a 2008 interview with Howard Stern, Trump told the shock jock that he turned away from an injured elderly man who had fallen off the stage at a Mar-a-Lago benefit because he couldn’t stomach the sight of blood.

 

Dont forget Megyn Kelly and the reaction to Mika’s plastic surgery...

How many national guards do you propose for each school? Do we reverse the recent tax breaks to pay for this?

Until we can get laws changed, as many as needed. Private schools will have to double their tuition. Public schools, tax the public to pay for the guard. Maybe it will force the politicians to get the guns off the streets. There is absolutely no reason to have these weapons in the public's hands.

I actually agree with Greg on this. Let's figure out what the true cost of protecting our schools will be if we do nothing else on guns. Once the thought of raising taxes is proposed, maybe then people will be outraged enough to do something about it.

The odds of that getting voted in are less than zero if it comes with increased cost, plus armed security guards arent going to make it safer. Many schools already have them.

He also looked like he soiled his pants that one time someone lunged at the stage at one of his rallies.

Why didn't he run after the guy and tackle him himself?

He certainly didn't react like a guy who would go in after a gun man unarmed. But as Colbert said, maybe he would stab him with his bone spurs. He is also on record from getting away from someone who fell at Mar A Lago, because he was sickened by the sight of blood. How would he have done in that school? Of course he is also on record bragging about assaulting women. Yet the women who accuse him are all liars.

 

All because he put an R after his name.

Thanks, Soxfan. I was thinking the tax hike would outrage people to do something, as you wrote. That did cross my mind as well. I want the kids protected. If you watched the kids speak on TV, they were pissed. One of them said they are coming and they will overturn the system someday when they get elected to office. They know it's ridiculous to have these guns on the street and they will change the laws to protect their kids but it may take years til they become our politicians.

Here's a good one:

I’m surprised the NRA was affiliated with car rental companies at all, considering Hertz and Avis enforce tyrannical rules like "age restrictions" and "having a license."

They haven't been for years, but were sold at Field & Stream, which is owned by Dick's. They'll no longer be sold there either.

Now we know how they have survived while Sports Authority and friends have had to shut down.

Can you imagine if social media was around when Michael Moore helped get Target, or was it Walmart, to stop selling guns and ammo in the early 2000s?

Dicks is kind of a step above those places IMO, at least in quality of space and merch. I love going there for some gear, but I honestly have never noticed weapons being sold there. I've always gone to Cabellas.
