Hi
zendi:
They want to seize the guns with which to manage the midnight home invasion moment.
They also want to defund (weaken) the Police that should respond swiftly to your distress moment, in lieu of gun possession.
Anything, and everything to make job easy for the midnight home invader.
Then as crime skyrockets, they run to purchase guns, while at the same time voting to "elect" a nationwide gun confiscator.
Makes me remember a friend on Foxnews Comments area with a username like this: liberalismisamentaldisorder735.
In other words the left wants power by all means, they want no opposition .A disarmed population can be controlled. Then the left can perpetuate themselves in power forever.

---Suspect is Syrian Muslim Arab---Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, a 21-year-old from Arvada, Colorado---regardless of political ideology---'mental evaluation'---should be considered before gun purchase---

---The only sad thing is that the armed cops didn't finish him off---another case that will cost so much tax-payers money for many years to come---
It has not been acknowleeged he has mental issues. Some other reason could have him do it too .
As I pointef out he could have used any other means to commit his crime if he did not have a gun. Its him who wanted to kill, not the gun.

The cops would have been condemned had they shot him if he dropped his weapons. They would be the ones facing murder charges .Murdering a killer who had been disaemed.

So Trump supporters are now finally outrage for a mass shooting because the shooter is not a white male grin
Its the hypocrisy of the left. Colorado has ban on high capacity magazines, exrensive background checks but that did not stop the killer.

Basilico. I am sure you are a married man. There are several ways before the woman is ready, but which one of them is 100% foolproof?
None is 100% foolproof. A combination of several is guaranteed to work. Most married couples do not get endless babies, so the unmarried shouls not tell us that they need abortions that they could have avoided in the first case.
Case in points Catholics generally do not use some family planning methods Yet you dont find married couples getting endless kids

The Colorado shooter whose name was being covered up has been named as Ahmad Al Issa. He is a Trump hater.

So, let us ban the guns that kill people, right? Then the people with mental health issues won't be able to use guns to kill.
Sure sure If we ban guns mass killers will not have any weapon of choice.

pompeiimagnus:
That's why young women are always advised to "marry before you carry". If we want to be real here, we all know that very few married couples talk about getting an abortion. Carrying a man's child is the highest honor a woman can give any man, it's her body so she has to choose wisely and take responsibility for whatever happens after. As I also said earlier, if the man decides to leave the relationship at any time, he must continue to shoulder his financial responsibility towards her and his child.
My problem with my body my choice is the move to "include" abortion as a family planning measure funded by taxpayers.
If one cannot wait to marry before carry There are very many ways a woman can prevent getting pregnant.

Why does the left want

Strict gun controls if not outright ban guns
No voter ID
Uncontrolled migration.
Race baiting and race divisions.
Climate change acceptance as 'settled science'
Adding more genders
Lying about almost anything.
To be as antichrstian as possible.
etc


Guns dont kill people. Some shooters usually have mental issues whether its from brainwashing; in several cases some of these shooters were under Fed watch who did nothing but were more interested in sending 15 agents to investigate a garage door noose.

NRA raised about 30m in 2020 elections. Trump spent 1B or so.

The most annoying thing is that the city banned AR15.Many of the mass shootings that have been carried out AR15 was used what on Earth is a civilian doing with an AR15.Former chief justice Warren in 1991 said the second amendment is a fraud and he did not lie.The NRA went to sue the city and one judge allowed for the use of AR15 and 6 days later this happens.The NRA needs to be dealt with and gun control reforms must be passed by the Dems or this nonsense won't stop

Joe Biden knows not where he is, what's he doing and must have a handler behind him all the time. Either Jill Biden or Kamala Harris.

To think that any sane voter cast his ballot for this demented idiot is truly insane.

Joe Dementia is just signing off on Obama policies of divide and rule, racial grievances, gendering activism, anti white policies, anti christian ideals etc.

Joe dementia is a puppet. Obama could be the guy running the show through Susan Rice and or Valerie Jarrett.

Here they come again spewing rubbish......let's have someone kneel on your neck for 5 mins and let's see if your skinny bones won't snap
I like engaging someone in some intelligent discussions.A back and forth

According to Michigan Police Department kneeling on a subjects neck is reserved for someone actively resisting apprehension.Maybe you did know that guideline because CNN never said it
anyways

How long does the MPD guidelines say you should kneel on a criminals neck in order to fully subdue him?

My only concern is that the police officers will be wrongfully convicted by a corrupt democrat controlled court, because of too much political inteference by the presidency and democrat in the case and also pressure from the media and the woke mob.
I am afriad that joe biden will want to used this case to score a political point. I am afraid the officers might not get justice and fairness out of this trial.

Dummy, he is not suppose to give press conference every day. That is the job of his press secretary and Ms Psaki do a good job of that. There's a big difference between a man of honor Biden and a worthless racist and grifter named Trump.
He cannot give press conferences like Trump because he is mentally incapable.
He has problems reading from a 60 inch teleprompter.
Jen Psaki has a new term circle back.

You are ashamed to admit you voted for a senile man, who even forgets where is is, what EO he is signing, who the hell is that guy running the outfit ( the defense secretary).

Liberals are parhetic. You used to post videos of Trump holding onto the railings while walking down the stairs, or even standing upright suggesting he has health problems.

Too ashamed to admit this Biden knows not where he is or doing And yet you voted for him.

Why is Joe Biden not allowing press to ask him questions you Trump hater. Trump used to talk to the press every minute. Joe Biden is the first president to not hold a press conference for over a hundred years.

Government can not just issue guidelines. Its like asking government to issue guidelines for paying tax or do not steal or shoot someone with no way of enforcing the line.

People like trump will come along and steal and not pay tax and shoot people on New York streets and get away with it. I don't want that, thank you very much.

But see irony and your hypocrisy. You say "govt should stop poking its nose into people's lives", but you want government to poke your nose in my gay bedroom and the inside of my womb!
I meant common sense guidelines. Paying tax is a must.
Govt should protect life too, not force me to pay for those who dont want to know they can get pregnant in only 5 days a month and can take measures to prevent it.
Gays can do their thing but should not force me to accept their beliefs that they was born dat way.I also have a mind too and I know that walking into an exit point is weird.And especially an exit point that needs to be meticulously prepared for an invasion.

Indeed automate is an option, and has already happened with the likes of Ford half a century ago, McDonalds and Walmart a decade ago, and just yesterday, Amazon opened a fully automated supermarket in UK. And that's not because of the minimum wage but because of profit seeking by reducing their wage bill, so it would be wrong to blame the minimum wage for it. If you were old enough in the 80s and 90s you'd remember "Productivity" was the management buzzword of the time as companies sought efficiencies and cost reductions by further automating.

Like I said, tricky, as companies will find ways to get around paying the minimum wage since you'd not find it easy to impose US tax on robots in China or Mexico.

By the way, are you aware US companies keep their revenue abroad? They buy US debt in the form of treasury bills and earn interest from US with it too, to show you how dubious company managers can be.
Big companies like Amazon have automated as much as they can. They can afford to buy robots which work all day n night without complaining, no medical covers, no pension matching etc.
However they put a human face. I like face to face shop when I can, a bit of online.
Technology is a way to beat manrdated minimum wage Many companies can almost literally eliminate human workforce but have not been forced to so far.

My take is that govt should stop poking its nose into people's lives, how they work, buy, get paid, sleep etc. Govt should just issue guidelines not force some matters especially to small businesses like voodoo shops.

I'm beginning to be bothered with this $15 minimum wage, which I have supported in the past so companies don't pay $0/hr as they might want to, but companies will just shift staff to China or Mexico to avoid it.

What America needs is "buy America" like Ghandhi introduced in India, but Americans seem to prefer cheap wherever they can get it from, and don't seem to do collectivism unless it involves guns or qnonsense, which is why I like the proposal of his as stated below.

Earlier this week, Hawley unveiled a separate minimum wage plan that would send quarterly refundable tax credits to workers earning less than $16.50 per hour, though only workers with valid Social Security numbers would be eligible.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/sarahhansen/2021/02/26/republican-sen-josh-hawley-proposes-legislation-requiring-15-minimum-wage-for-billion-dollar-companies/


They should get the quarterly refundable tax credits from taxing company itself to pay for it, and include companies who rely on imports too. And do one of those Kennedy propagandas "Ask what your country can do for you and buy American!" That should do it, but I know I'm just being naive and it's more compkex than that.

This is as tricky as trying to pay a living wage in Nigeria in my opinion. Government can't afford to pay it and would be hypocrites trying to get the private sector to. But it should remain on the agenda all the same.
Big companies might not shift to China.
They will simply automate, have robots do tasks performed by humans.Including making pizzas and flipping burgers.
Joe Biden advice: Learn to code ( That was in a very different context by the way)
Democrats really dont want that.Someone was proposing taxing robots.
