Yeah. Democrats.

It makes perfect sense. Dems trend center-right. GOP are hard right (fascist), & name-call to score points.

The founders believed in God, sure. But the country was founded on them not wanting their businesses to be subject to British taxes.

Under the assumption of "active shooter," why would you use less precaution for someone with a non-violent history?

In which case, their record is STILL immaterial, as it wouldn't matter if they were spotless, either.

I'm going to be charitable & assume you mean when police are pursuing an active shooter, not just "Someone who shot a gun in the past." 1/

Every Libertarian candidate I've seen has just been Republican Lite. Anti-abortion, anti-public funding. No goddamn thank you.

None of that centrist, false equivalence, both sides bullcrap. The left and right are not equivalent in goals, tactics, or outcomes.

Fair. But this started with you asking what rights they don't have, and I am trying illustrate just one example to you. It goes beyond this.

And 1 of 2 parties in the US, and a lot of British politicians, want to make it illegal. Pretty hefty rights violation, no?

The inverse can be especially funny. When someone makes a dumbshit argument, just hit with the ol' "*they're" and then fuckin ghost em.

I read it more as the root causes of many of our anxieties are unassailable at an individual level. You can't therapy away crushing poverty.

Trump lost the popular vote twice. Are you suggesting that they have a larger voting population, or just more voters per capita?

So tax the income of the business so you can pay the workers? Isn't that just paying the workers with, like, extra steps?

Don't move the goal posts. Stay on point. What is the point of a business if it cannot support the livelihood of its employees?
