The i-chip implant will never sell to politicians as they don’t want the public to ever know what they really think, especially in situations like this.
i’ve been listening to various radio news shows this morning… wall-to-wall coverage of the shootings of the congressional ball team and the game last night, NOT ONE WORD about the UPS mass shooting in SF the same day, where more people died. Why are the lives of the congressmen and staff deserving of more coverage and outrage than the UPS victims?Also, i’m nauseated by all the “thoughts and prayers” being mouthed by all the pols… ENOUGH with empty “thoughts and prayers!” WHEN is real action hell, even honest discussion about firearms madness ever to happen?
Cowardly congress gets upset every time they meet actual reality. It upsets the pampered millionaire bubble that they live in. The republicans will soon forget it and move on to making more liberal gun laws while taking away health insurance for the mass to pay for tax cuts for the one per cent rich.
There’s so much death and disaster in the world — and so much coverage of it by the “if it bleeds, it leads” media — that we’re all suffering from compassion fatigue. It’s a defense mechanism to keep us all from a downward spiral of depression leading to suicide.
The Democrats scored more points at the ball game, but the Republicans won. Take a look at the great gesture the Democrats gave the GOP. Will this start people reaching across the aisle? Would the Republicans have responded the same way the Democrats have if the shooter hit someone from the other party?
Talking about cameras; did you see wayne lapierre in election mode, last year? The panic in his eyes, the terrorized voice, the hysterical gibberish… No, no one was threatening to cut off his pipi… He was just warning his fascist NRA members what HRC- if elected- was gonna do to their dearest pistols, rifles and assault guns… But this is the greatest country on earth! I really feel sorry for those poor buggers in Europe, Australia and New-Zealand, and many others… all those “civilized” people, how can they possibly live without GUNS.

SILENCE re VI’LENCE – {a limerick}
Will the gunner-subculture win
ag’in, ag’in, yet ag’in?
Will we keep silence
concerning gun-vi’lence? -

UN-CIVIL WARRING – {a rhyme}
America’s future is not so bright
when Righties shoot Left and Lefties shoot Right.
It isn’t mere sparring;
it’s UNcivil-warring.
Dangerously dark is America’s night.
