And .......

[FairHooker11]

make schools a hard target with funding that provides armed security

make this a first step to level the threat with a response

why is that hard for the left to understand?

Like WSS refers to Chicago,  a HUGE hypocrisy in the claim on gun control

I know it is easier to just assume things like this are real, because you like what they say. But just an ounce of investigation will show you this is clearly a fake account

Her actual handle is MaxineWaters, and it is verified.

That's MaxinePWaters, and it isn't verified. Also, all of the tweets by that account are clearly there to make here look bad.

Of course, enough people think that is real and it has probably reinforced their political opinions...

so, here's some real quotes by stupid maxine waters

[calfoxwc]

Guess what this liberal would be all about? This liberal will be about socializing...uh, um...Would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies.

Maxine Waters

It's time for the bully pulpit of the White House to bring the gangstas in, put them around the table and let them know that if they don't come up with loan modifications and keep people in their homes that they've worked so hard for, we're gonna tax them out of business.

Maxine Waters

We do not have a crisis at Freddie Mac, and particularly Fannie Mae, under the outstanding leadership of Frank Raines.

Maxine Waters    (because he's BLACK)

 

I think that when you saw Donald Trump absolutely calling Hillary Clinton crooked, the "lock her up, lock her up," all of that was developed. I think that was developed strategically with people from the Kremlin, with Vladimir Putin.

Maxine Waters

Riot is the voice of the unheard.

Maxine Waters

 

I am not afraid of anybody. This is a tough game. You can't be intimidated. You can't be frightened. And as far as I'm concerned, the Tea Party can go straight to hell.

By the way didn't mean to get hijacked into an entire Maxine Waters thread. Anybody have an opinion on the unfortunate fact that only Zero Tolerance will have any effect on gun violence?

Unfortunately the mere discussion of guns in America is being framed improperly, it's about practical real life experience and not idealism.

Looks like there's a very real chance that is fake. So good start there Cal... But I can't say I'm surprised. You only know how to find info you agree with, not reputable info.

I'm sure you didn't, but that shed a light on a very real, underlying problem with any political debate. How are we going to debate the merits of gun control when you, and so many others, believe a fake twitter account? When you believe whatever fake news goes in front of you because it reinforces your beliefs? 

It's hard to have any real debate there. The other side has to first tell you why your info is actual fake news. And then if you're presented with real info that disagrees with your worldview it will be called fake news.

I get you think that Maxine Waters stuff was off topic... But it's at the very core of what's wrong with our country politically today. 

[OldBrownsFan]

I think the gun control debate should be this: How do we protect gun rights for law abiding citizens and keep guns away from those who have no business owning one much less something like an assault rifle? In the latest case it sure looks like the FBI dropped the ball when they were tipped off about the shooter in Florida and failed to do anything. In the church shooting a few months ago the shooter should not have been able to have a gun with a domestic violence in the Air Force that failed to get entered into the system. We have to be honest and admit that there are no laws that can prevent these shootings but we can take steps to try to minimize them. Like most issues with terrorism we should look to our friends in Israel and use their models in our own schools with armed teachers and better security. Designated "gun free" zones are just plain stupid and probably even make things worse as murderers know they will be facing unarmed people. What I don't want to see happen is law abiding citizens losing their second amendment rights over the actions of a few evil people.
