Cuda.. just stop. You are NEVER right. Read & learn... don't talk!

Looks like the dnc has told the sheeple to get out and make some noise. You think they will actually do anything good, besides getting the spotlight off biden and his mental health?

Neither Trump nor Biden should be president. because of the age,

Both are antiques, I know a few pilots, they force you to retire on your 66 birthday. for commercial aviation,

Not saying that should apply to political office,

But I do believe no one should be in political office in their 80's

Call it the Feinstein law, Dianne Feinstein would not retire, she lived to 93 and was not showing up for work, finally dying last year

I hope the NRA makes this next administration group understand that you DON'T punish the good in order to reprimand the bad. This is what happens in our schools and all the way thru life (a fight at recess in elementary="take recess away from everyone for a few days"-what a brilliant concept. As I said before, if the police can't do it then we as citizens need to step in, (we don't in most cases for fear of being punished for helping), that needs to change first and our whole world could be corrected.

Maybe we should all carry paint ball guns, shoot the bad guys and let the police find the ones with the most colors....

It's interesting to compare US murder rates suicide rates to other countries. The murder rate is much higher in the US then in other wealthy countries. One would not expect Americans to be more violent then citizens of other countries. The US suicide rate is only a bit higher.

Well David have you been to many inner cities that are mostly run by Democrats?
Go walk around New Orleans for a day and into the night and you will see a common thread develop.
This is not to say that nowhere even rural areas do not have bad people to, but crime statistics would plummet if inner city crime did not exist.

It's a certain demographic that is responsible for most. I'm sure you can see that. Just watch any news channel & you tell me. RR

Sorry, I don't watch TV news.

I did used to pass through Detroit on my way to work for many years. It's a bad sign when a fast food place has bullet proof glass between the customers and the staff. Sadly the suburbs are not safe either. There was a mass shooting at a high school near my old office. Co-workers had kids there.

Lies, damn lies, and statistics. More rural Americans die from guns than urban Americans. The lower homicide rate in rural areas is more then offset by a higher suicide rate. The difference in homicide rate between rural and urban America is not as great as the difference between the US and other wealthy countries.

Over 800 cops on duty for the parade, wife and kids, let's celebrate ...

Another "proof by history" note; my uncle was a gold/silver, coin, and antique dealer. He dealt in large cash bills only, openly carried a stainless revolver like most guys would a cell phone. Never in 40 years of doing shows and having retail stores was he ever robbed or dealt with a robbery attempt. He was like Earnhardt "the intimidator".

The US is the leader in traffic accidents, maybe we should get rid of vehicles.

Traffic deaths, our cars must meet safety standards, no so everywhere.

How about the thousands that die from cell phones being used while driving? No one in the govt wants to ban cell phones. Try to find a better argument for gun bans. The ones that are being proffered are just plain bogus.

This may not be popular. There are laws about driving while intoxicated, look at the amount of accidents that involve intoxicated drivers. Nobody seems to wanna touch that one.

The US used to be the world leader in traffic safety. I expect the US could catch up if it wanted to. There is a push for Vision Zero, ie no traffic deaths, in some parts of Europe, which seems to be increasing their lead.

I don't see how the US could reduce gun deaths to levels of other peer countries. There is the second amendment and a strong pro gun culture. I don't see a constitutional or cultural barrier to traffic safety.
