    Honestly, the only thing that's ever been shown to work is time-consuming. Take the dude to lunch. First couple of lunches, listen and try to understand the intense fear. Ask good but sympathetic questions.

    But yeah, I think *anything* on the internet will not help the situation. It is hard-wired to make things worse, and that's why we are where we are, in part.

    Is there a cogent reason for the term "radical Islamic terrorism"?

    Acevedo. The police chief that had his minions set up and kill that old man and his wife in that manufactured and corrupt "drug deal."

    If ever there was a reason for citizens owning guns -- the more powerful the better -- he is it.

    So you suggest citizens taking firearms and killing the police chief?

    Can you think of no other or better solution to the problem of corrupt officials? Really?

    You have policeman now who can’t even defend themselves and they want you to give up your right to defend and protect yourself and family. As Dana Carvey said doing his George Bush impression, Na Ga Da.

    No, as I said, I'm on a sparsely populated island in this regard. Most democrats I've talked to about guns want to maintain the right to arms. So, it's probably not popular enough to be called an agenda, and I can't find enough leftists to agree with me to call it leftist.

    As for controlling lives, yes, I want to make this change so I can get more control over my life. Unfortunately, I'm tyrannized by the majority that want to be able to tote guns around.

    So then Elizabeth Warren is responsible for Dayton?
    Democrats are responsible for James Hodgkinson?

    It's one or the other. Either both sides are guilty or it's alltogether wrongheaded.

    Meanwhile, Joaquin Casto doxxes private citizens over their political donations. If Trump did this, there would be howls from the left.

    Hypocrites.
