Bill Belichick says no to Trump
-
How is "the founding fathers couldn't have envisioned an AR-15" an emotional argument?
The american exceptionalism idea that we have a monopoly on freedom is nonsense. Many other free nations exist with stricter gun laws. Passing reform here won't immediately tailspin our country into tyranny...
Their emotional appeals are where they drag the carcasses of very select gunshot victims out and pretend to cry crocodile tears over them when, in reality, they couldn't give a shit less.
The "founding fathers couldn't have envisioned ar-15's" argument is their attempt to "protect people from outmoded language and ideas" in the constitution.
You know what the founding fathers could and did envision? Tyranny. That's why everything they laid out was designed with the ability to remove the government. Not to protect the people from harm. To remove the government.

I see- that's a huge part of Trump's base- the Second Amendment crowd. Along with some easily deceived mentally weak folks, white supremacists, and xenophobes.
You have it backwards, and you're entitled to your opinion. The Founding Fathers specifically set up the Government to protect it from potential tyrants- like Donald Trump. He failed- barely-this time to overturn an election he clearly lost.
Then if you don't like Trump I don't get why you're so up in arms that the Democrats are going to destroy Democracy- when Trump did his level best for the last year.
-
Meanwhile you'll get to see over the next four years what a real power grab looks like. There might be some things in there that you like on the surface. Medicare for all sounds great, yeah? It does. It's ok to say it sounds great. But it's intent is to beholden you to the state. Take away your options. Why do you suppose that so many foreign doctors leave their home countries to practice here? Why do you suppose so many foreigners with the capital to do so come here for health care?
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -

How many people, in real life mind you, not the anonymous and semi lawless internet land, do you know that are very vocal trump supporters? I know several. I work with a couple of them and, living out in the country, they're my neighbors. None of them, to my knowledge, is a stated white supremacist. I see lots of attacks on whiteness, though. White privilege, white "supremacy", white fragility, white white white ad infinim. I see that through overt attacks and resentment actually creating the boogeyman they want to fight. A self fulfilling prophecy. Who do you imagine is behind that?
Also even though trump is an absolute piece of human shit please detail the rights he's stripped away. I await your reply with baited breath. What you mean to say when you say trump is trying to destroy democracy is that he's in direct conflict with the aristocrats and they cannot and will not allow that threat to their supreme control.
The storming of the capital is a principle that the founding fathers argued for after their own, successful, coup and revolution.
I don't agree with their cause, and I don't agree with their motive, and I certainly don't like their figurehead. Their attempt was half-assed at best but the response to this will be the death of everything the founding fathers convened to argue for.

Well, Cysko let me just comment on the Medicare for All stuff. I worked in healthcare for over 40 years. Medicare has been around for over 50 years- and it hasn't ruined the country. As someone who's currently on Medicare, I can honestly say I don't have much to complain about it. If they don't like something and disallow a claim, my supplemental insurance takes care of it. Biden isn't pushing Medicare for All, just maybe letting people that want to buy in. The problem with that is GASP!! your taxes are going to go up. When you come right down to it- nothing is "Free". Those roads you drive on are paid for by a gas tax. PS- Trump's tax gift to his uber wealthy pals is going to go away. I'll hold Biden to his word if you make less that $400,00 a year your taxes aren't going up.
My final point is the United States is one of the few developed countries that doesn't have universal healthcare coverage. Ah, paranoia rules.... Just look to the our neighbor to the North- Canada. They have universal healthcare. And golly gee- why are people here trying to get their prescriptions filled in Canada? Because usually- it's way cheaper to do so? Maybe it's because lame Congressmen gladly accept big campaign contributions from Big Pharma. I'm sure you realize Canada's gun laws are way more restrictive than ours. Less gun murders up there? Yup. So you can have both- and the country isn't going to go to hell because of it.

The problem with white supremacy is that it used to mean something. A white supremacist was exactly what it sounds like. One who believes whites are supreme. There's no place in my heart for such an individual.
However through insidious means white supremacy means something very different. Now that it has been established that the system is white supremacy and systemic racism encompasses all aspects of everything america stands for - you can burn the whole country to the ground. All the institutions and everything it's ever stood for. You, hoorta, are a white supremacist by virtue of being white. You just don't know it yet because, pesky detail, you don't actually hate non white people, I assume. That little prerequisite has been removed, but you haven't got the memo yet.

You failed to answer the very straightforward questions I posed to you.

Meanwhile you extolled the virtues of medicare for some while ignoring what that implied - choice. The right to choose.

That's ignoring that there are a bunch of true white supremacist, racists still running around this country. And sure, it's gotten out of hand- that we should pay reparations to black folks because one other distant relatives was a slave 150 years ago.
You failed to answer the very straightforward questions I posed to you.
Well, if you mean that any Government program is a restriction on your freedom? In regards to Medicare- if I was a multimillionaire- I did have a choice- I could have self insured. And hope I didn't need open heart surgery- the bill for my pal's wife was $400,000. They don't put a gun to your head and say you have to enroll. If you take away laws- you have anarchy. The Capitol rioters broke the law. Period. The ones who get identified and caught are going to jail.

That’s ok Cysko, the newly elected President with Alzheimer’s is going to take care of the white folk.

I worked in healthcare for over 40 years.
That’s part of the problem, try looking at people who work outside of certain professions. I would say people that work in the medical field (like my wife) and various government agencies are insulated from what the rest of the country is experiencing with health care costs. I work at a large manufacturing company, and since Obamacare went into effect our healthcare premiums have tripled. My coworker has a family of 4 and his healthcare costs are over $1100 per month. The Affordable Care Act is only affordable for those getting it for free, certainly not for the working men & women of this country.

Funny you mention Canada, my sister in law works at the Cleveland Clinic (35 years) and she tells me they average 20 - 30 Canadians a week coming in for life saving surgery. Socialized medicine may sound good, but when you have to wait 6 months for surgery...it’s not good.

Well done Cysko. Them’s some big fatty pieces to chew on. Good pondering material.

Many, many, many other "free" countries have managed to enact stricter gun laws without being taken over by a tyrant. That type of thinking is from the same american condition that refuses to wear masks because "freedom".

They specifically added a byline to that one. Maybe you've heard it before? Shall not be infringed.
it gets a reaction from liberals similar to pazuzu reacting to "the power of christ compels you" in the exorcist.

If you want my feelings about the capitol protestors here they are: they effectively gave the left exactly what they were looking for: the excuse to end american freedom forever.

With the help of the unscrupulous press but don't think that the left isn't just overjoyed about it.
