The source has to be from a conservative organization other than government.

It can't be from a left-wing Clinton group that are known as anti-gun.

The reason the second amendment is there is to protect citizens from the government.

Your premise might just be flawed. Are the people being killed democrats? If so, that might be part of the plan. It is okay to kill off the opponents party as long as you preserve as many of your own votes as possible.

No one’s premise is more flawed than kenarman’s: We can’t look at murder rates, only raw data of murders per city.

So if a city of 5 million had 500 murders and a city of 500 had 100 murders the 500 murders would be the bigger deal in his eyes. An absolutely ludicrous position to take. But when you are on the losing side of an argument, sometimes that’s what ya gotta do!

Exactly.


That's one way they control their voter mentality.

They're being scammed by deceiving info but the voters can't see it.


Meanwhile, voters in Chicago vote for a person more left than what they had.

Gosh, you'd think they'd figure it out the info is biased by now.


They even blame Walmart for closing shop.

They don't have an ability to look into the mirror.

Always blame others for their shortcomings.


Remember, you are talking the same people who cheered to have their rights taken away to "stop the china virus!" Not to mention that they now think a man is a woman if the man thinks he is a woman. You expect rational thought from them?

Donald Trump Jr. is calling for the end of a conservative-led boycott against Bud Light, which is owned by Anheuser-Busch, over the parent company's partnership with the trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney.


Wow, DT jr is showing some actual non-bigotry sense.

Oops, my bad.

Certainly not.

Most here think differently for sure.


I just hate to see innocent folks being scammed.

At least give them a chance.

You mean like the non-bigots who pointed out that there was nothing wrong with Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben on products?

It’s almost like Duffman gets off on making the dumbest arguments possible.

He's a fan of the confederate flag. Maybe he's a fan of racist myths of happy Black servitude.
