Well, he can use ONE weasel-power.(And I’m told it was a Sig Sauer MCX this time.)

Congress has been rendered impotent by lobbyists for years and years… I wouldn’t expect mass murder of Americans on American soil to change anything.

If the Airlines had the lobbying prowess of the NRA, we’d be able to walk right onto a plane with none of these tedious TSA checks.
Of course, every few months a plane would go down and we’d all say “oh, if there were only something we could do about it” but at least we wouldn’t have the government infringing on our Fourth Amendment rights protecting us from unwarranted searches!

Pardon for the double clutching. GC is doing that a lot today and not just with my posts. I deleted the double post ( I hope ).
I wasn’t running away – time constraints are exactly that.
Re: my Troll post . I was NOT , as the individual I replied to, calling anyone, specifically, a troll. That name gets used too often when someone disagrees with someone else.
I posted the characterization precisely to point out the absurdity of calling someone a name !
I’m surprised. You usually know when I’m either being sarcastic or ironic.
Have a great weekend.

Apparently, there is… it’s the Capitol building. Absolutely void of any bipartisan political discourse.

“For those of you who don’t agree or aren’t willing to read logical analtsis, how do I reach you ?”
I don’t know what “logical analtsis” is but it sounds nasty.
Anyway, to answer your question: It would probably help immensely if you trimmed your outbursts of incoherent word-salad to a hundred words or less.
