You are correct there are plenty of cukes out there and it is suggested that the current media narrative is affecting their minds.
46 school shootings- someone said a long long time ago that we need to protect our students from such crazy people. Armed guards are at banks and stadia but our kids are not important enough to protect?
Like you I am skeptical of these suspects that are announced
Or maybe as Charlie Kirk said, we should accept that shootings are an acceptable by product of the right to own guns, just like road deaths are an acceptable by product of driving?Quote:

Guns are regulated to the hilt in America but so far no one has come up with a solution for keeping them out of the hands of criminals who have no regard for and never will care about the law. Just like the illegal drugs that kill thousands of people each year in this country.Quote:

That said you may want to move your focus to the lax bail laws that let repeat offenders back onto the streets time and again.
And lastly I hope you agree with me that the initiative by the current administration to put the national guard onto the streets of DC, which is reaping handsome rewards, should be employed in every major city?
Are you out of your mind. Having the military patrolling the streets is straight out of facist dictator handbook chapter 1. Hes using it as a tool to attack Blue cities only. When you have the President of the country saying things on Twitter that "Chicago is about to find out why it's called the Department of War", that is nothing more than a threat against his own citizens
Stunning logic on your part. So this policy has stopped crime in its tracks in DC. Murders, rapes, car jackings and muggings all down in numbers, and that's a bad thing?Quote:

I don't know how you think it's ok for people to be murdered in their droves everyday in these American cities (they're blue cities as you point out and mostly run by Dems) when a remedy is being offered to save lives? That logic just doesn't add up.
Ever wonder why trump is targeting cities in states that voted against him?
There's cities in the US with far worse records than Chicago, but are all in states that voted republican.
Mark is ok with the SS on the streets it seems
I wonder why the Democrats never seem to bothered about the appalling crime statistics in the places they run ?Quote:

Vast majority of high crime Cities in US are in Republican States.
There's a statement to beat the lot. The SS on the streets. The SS if I remember correctly were taking lives. The national guard are protecting lives. A little bit of a difference wouldn't you say?Quote:

Did you read what you posted? It lists a bunch of cities that are run by Democrats. I myself listed Baltimore in an earlier post.Quote:

I assume by Republican state you and Tets mean, the state voted Trump...?Quote:

Theres a solution. And f*ck Cletus from Buttf*ck, Montana.Quote:
