Yeah for someone who doesn't want to sound anti-Semitic, he did a pretty poor job I'd say.

Try and force through a massive gun bill and guess what happens? This problem did not happen overnight. Taking steps to regulate and licensing may not be enough to combat the carnage. Until tried who knows.

Getting out the voters is the key. By using solutions that will be accepted by the most seems the way to go. They may well need to be increased in restrictions when proven inaccurate.

Until then my hope more victims will use our legal system to sue. Sue the paints off the gun manufacturing industry, advertisers, sellers (retail and private), family and friends, associated with weapons and the shooters.

Even sue the elected officials for taking their stand on guns.

The secret to success will be in getting officials to be willing to agree on action. This means it is up to the voters in this country.

Speaking of gun control,

3 Tennessee Democrats face removal from office in Thursday vote after gun control protest on state House floor

Quote:

The Tennessee House of Representatives is scheduled to vote Thursday on removing from office three Democratic lawmakers who protested on the chamber floor with a bullhorn to call for gun reform following last month’s school shooting in Nashville – and now are accused of breaking House rules.
Guess First Amendment does not apply in the Tennessee House of Representatives.
Similar to "My Body, My Choice" does not apply to abortion.

They could make the case for use of a bull horn, but an eviction?

Do you see a practical approach to an eventual resolution? Maybe something like the Swiss model?

I been seeing this since last night's reporting. The Republicans are making no secret who they are supporting. Not the children or other victims of violence. Pretty much gun industry money. Much akin to the abortion issue. Climate change ...

Why they get the number of voters puzzles me to no end. Voting against their self interests like they do.

Via radio (Limbaugh) and then Social Media (Brietbart), the Republicans have branded the Democrats as evil (Evilcrats). So owning the Libs gets them the votes without having to produce any tangible results on their own. On what other planet would Trump be a candidate again and leading their party? Corruption, mayhem, chaos are he is ever capable of.

How does outlawing abortion and forcing people to have children they do not want or cannot afford help our society?

How does proliferation of guns and easy access to assault weapons leading to mass shootings and killings help our society?

How does not providing basic healthcare (Medicaid expansion) help our society?

How does banning books from libraries help our society?

I will leave religion and the homophobia parts alone, but please check this out.

Its always the Three G's that gets them the votes.

There is the problem with Free Speech without accountability and liability. For the use of Free Speech is now being abused with very little in the way of recourse or punishments.

When one can freely openly spew untruths and lies drumming up hateful unrest with no penalties. This practice is squarely at the center of most of the unrest in this country.

The Romans crucified Christ, because they wanted to retain law and order in Jerusalem, but they did not have enough boots on the grounds to fight the Jews until 70 years later.

They did not even want to do it because Jesus had not broken any of their laws, only the Jewish law of blaspheme against a God they did not believe in.

The "white supremist christian nationalists" have not been been in power and control of the US economy for over 100 years, the Zionist have this control, and they will retain this control even over the Democrats.

We just have be thankful for these boon years. And they have been good. Now it's time to pay up what we owe, and die homeless without proper medical care or food. Or join the military in it's crusade against Communists and the enemies of the Nation State Israel.

I'll be back to addres the "blood libel bullshit". It's not what Ike thinks it is. Gotta go to work, and be a good slave.

Heard it all before. Every one of you puts your own little twist on your anti-Semitism. In an attempt to ward off the accusations of anti-Semitism. But it's always the same blood libel bullshit. Jesus of Nazareth was a revolutionary. A religiius and social revolutionary.The establishment rabbis didn't like him, and he wasnt fond of them either. But the Romans crucified revolutionaries...the rabbis never crucified anybody. No Jew killed Jesus of Nazareth.

"Bllod Libel" carries with it several meanings. One of them is all about drinking the blood of murdered christian children. But is also refers to the "Jews killed jesus" bullshit from anti-Semites like you. Crucifixion is a Roman invention. The Romans executed revolutionaries.
