I agree with Tom's premise, if not the content. nossy Send a noteboard - 15/06/2017 09:46:57 AM

We all know it isn't just navel fluff, so I'm not addressing that. However, I think the elements within the media that are saying the ridiculous things the article discussed would be doing it without much pushing. And some of the politicians, obv for the same reasons.

I can't quite bring myself to respond to the article, because I feel as you do. It has a sound core point (which was also true before this administration), but there is a lot of crap to wade through. Hanging out on a conservative political website is wiping me out.

The funny thing about violence is you can't control it. Tom - 14/06/2017 04:31:35 PM 952 Views
So you thought that would scare me Tom? Roland00 - 14/06/2017 09:30:34 PM 911 Views
The aim was not to scare anyone. It was to show that violence is not controllable. Tom - 15/06/2017 04:24:12 AM 873 Views
I thought everyone already understood that? I was wrong? Roland00 - 15/06/2017 10:26:04 PM 998 Views

I think the gunman has more in common with people who beat their wives than Bernie Sanders Roland00 - 14/06/2017 09:08:54 PM 822 Views
Do we know conclusively Bernie doesn't beat his wife? *NM* Tom - 15/06/2017 04:24:54 AM 539 Views
