Trump just called for mental health reform in our gun laws. Watch as Democrats decry this and claim he’s demonizing the mentally ill.
(In case you didn’t know, I know this because they do it every time it’s brought up. Hard to enact something when a party wants to pretend men cutting off their dicks and thinking they’re a woman is a sane and rational action)

You’re aware Trump banned bump stocks last year? Obviously you’re not, but he did. They’re illegal now.
What guns were banned under the 94 assault weapons ban. Tell me. Could you still buy an AR-15 or SAR-1 in 1995?
You’re aware straw purchase have been illegal for decades? Do you know how many people are prosecuted for straw purchases or lying on their NICS form?
It’s like you’re completely unaware of what laws exist, but have really strong feelings on the issue. If you care so much, you should take a couple hours to get educated, rather than advocate for laws that already exist.

When those of you demanding action start posting about this kind of shit that happens every weekend in our major cities, let me know.
But the majority of firearm murders in this country are black on black violence, so you won’t even address it.
But some white Antifa nut shoots up a night club in Dayton, and it’s Trump’s fault. No posts or concerns when Antifa tried to blow up an ICE facility 3 weeks ago or a Bernie Bro shot up congress. I don’t recall PASnow’s outrage at his favorite people’s rhetoric.
I mean, none of these shooters were declared mentally ill, and they passed background checks. So PASnow trying to blame the reversal of Obama’s SS disability ban is so disingenuous, it says all it needs to. You do know that Obama’s ban only applied to those on disability for being mentally impaired. I agree Trump shouldn’t have revoked it, but to pretend it factored into this tragedy is just fucking dishonest, and shows a complete lack of understanding. But ignorance is bliss and emotions trump logic in this day and age.
When people are selective on their outrage based on race, lack any understanding of the law and statistics, and quickly look for an escape goat because they can’t intelligently argue their point, you have to ask if an informed, intelligent position even exists for their views.

Unless the economy tanks, I can't see any of these people beating Trump.
If Biden survives the primary without selling his soul, I still think he can. But no one else has a chance.

Really, an ignore feature would be great. Really great discussions devolve into stupidity. I don't want to see Mitch banned but I don't want to see his posts.
I asked for this over 2 years ago so I could avoid the truther. I’ll reiterate now what I said then, I’d gladly chip in to upgrade this forum to support modern features.

Honestly it's not just mitch. You are all as bad as each-other. Embarrassing and you all should be embarrassed.
If you can cite where anyone else repeatedly states objective falsehoods and can’t remember what they or the poster they’re quoting said, I’d love examples.

Seriously mods, it’s time for this clown to go.

That's your response? Dang, I didn't know I buried you that far. RIP bitchslappedmitch
Child please...you ain’t nuthin...
You’re so boring....you’re not even top 20 worst things said to me on this board.
You best get to bed...you probably have one of those knuckle dragger jobs to get up early for...
Holy hell, you’re a piece of work. So if someone showers after their job, they’re somehow less than you? Never mind Buzz has said he’s some kind of recruiter for a Health company - no one expects you have that kind of retention.
But to attack his home and hypothetical type of work? I guess you’re not the bleeding heart you claim to be. You’re just a bigot who proudly professes that he intentionally remains ignorant. So you’re an ignorant bigot - everything you accuse the rightwing and Trump of being. You’re all class, Mitch.

hmmm, seems you like it when Trump is a bitch but you hate it when Kamala is a bitch. What could possibly explain it into the system? Why is it OK in one context but not the other? Will have to think on that one won’t we?
Is it possible that you were judging people unfairly? Is it possible that you’re not being consistent in your evaluation?
One of the cool things about not being a bleeding heart liberal is that you don't really care about petty things. While most conservatives would prefer Trump to choose his words a little more wisely, they don't really have an issue with the message being delivered bluntly. Frankly the message needs to be delivered even more bluntly, but certainly a little more eloquently in an ideal world.
Liberals on the other hand are a bit sensitive. They need safe spaces where nobody is going to speak bluntly to them or tell them the truths that need to be said. So while Trump can get away with being a "bitch" as you call it, Kamala can't. Not because she's a woman or because she's not white as snow, but because the bleeding heart liberals don't like it. They don't embrace toughness.
SG isn't judging people unfairly; he's acknowledging the playing field isn't the same. You have never understood any of the differences that exist on both sides...you're too busy labeling everyone racist or sexist to even begin to comprehend any other options. These things that make us different are actually the best thing we have going for us as a nation. Too much of either side is bad; balance is needed because we can't survive being too liberal or conservative. Either option would destroy the fabric of the country.
Bravo. This is the best post in this thread in months.

Sorry to hear that, man.
