The Real timschochet

Can you explain the difference? Because I can’t see it. I don’t pretend to be a gun expert but it sure seems like the same thing.

I thought owning machine guns was illegal. Aren’t bump stocks basically allowing folks to own machine guns? Whats the difference?

This won’t mean anything to them. They WANT to believe that Biden is senile- it makes their willingness to vote for Trump slightly more palatable to themselves.

Trump says he may lose the first debate on purpose: https://www.yahoo.com/news/

You know buddy I have pretty strong views for sure but on serious stuff like this I’m pretty honest. Or at least I try to be.

Sure but the State of the Union was a speech. He’s not thinking off the cuff.

No.

I believe the upcoming debate will prove you wrong. This won’t be a speech and if Biden is as senile as some of you believe, he won’t be able to hide it. I’m going to watch carefully (though a few days after) and offer an honest opinion: if I think he’s lost it I will let you know. On the other hand, I hope that if you guys are confronted with a mentally alert Biden you will acknowledge it (even if you disagree with what he has to say.)

Dont feel bad for him. Chances are he will have another 4 and half years to prove you wrong.

How could anyone want this? What a catastrophe this would be.

Zionism is the belief that the Jewish people deserve a national home for themselves, and that home is the State of Israel. Zionism does not seek to relocate the Palestinian people, or any other people. It’s not fascist. It does not deny the rights of any other people, or the right of Palestinians to establish their own state. Zionism is a secular idea. It was originated by Theodor Herzl, a secular Jew who did not practice religion. The State of Israel was founded by secular Jews, essentially atheists, who regarded Judaism as a nationality and not a religion. One can be pro-Zionist without supporting the current government of Israel. One can be anti-Zionist without being anti-Semitic.

You have now brought up this subject in several threads, none of which are related to the topic at all. Anti-semitism from pro-Palestinian types is not a new thing. It should be condemned when it occurs. It has no bearing on this topic, or on Trump’s conviction, or on the race between Biden and Trump.

Sounds like the Trump immunity decision will be released tomorrow. Should be interesting

Yes

Also this is a shameful interpretation by you.

Which makes it even worse, doesn’t it? Teen suicides as a result of bigotry towards transgenders are all too common.

That’s been our history from the beginning. And we haven’t collapsed yet.

1. I’ve addressed Chicago violence elsewhere. It has nothing to do with this topic. 2. There is nothing funny about the violence and bigotry that transgenders face in this country. 3. Your own ignorance and bigotry contributes to this sad situation.

DeSantis would have made a terrible President just as he has been the worst governor of Florida in modern American history. However he would not have been a threat to our democratic institutions, so he is infinitely preferable to Trump. And agree he would be way ahead of Biden right now.

My logic is this: it is not safe in this country to be a transgender person. Too much ignorance, too much bigotry, too much violence against them, especially in rural areas (and yes @Fireballer that includes Oklahoma.) San Francisco is responding to that by declaring “At least here we will do our best to try and love you, accept you, and keep you safe.” Good for them. And the hell with anyone who finds issue with this.

53% isn’t a toss up. It’s close but it’s an edge for Biden. And I’m not ignoring anything. I post good stuff for Biden and bad stuff for Biden. Are you expecting me to post everything? Personally I still don’t feel good about this race. I have no clue how it will go but Trump is doing way too well to make any Biden supporter feel confident. Still, currently, the trends are moving in the right direction. Hopefully that will continue.

Not by me.

I wish I hadn’t been correct about that. But look what happened to Nex Benedict: https://www.advocate.com/news/transgender-student-death-raichik-walters#toggle-gdpr
