And domestic terrorists (BLM, et al) are running freakin rampant at the moment.


Obama brought out the absolute worst and enabled domestic terrorists...period.


How many times were these anarchist tyrants BLM invited to his White House? Absolutely and truly deplorable, if there were ever deplorable acts by a sitting president.


No more of these BLM frauds now, Mr. Trump. Let authorities lock them up and deal with them accordingly.

The main reason to own firearms these days is the government has a proven track record of failing to provide security. Katrina was no man's land. Other urban areas have the police just come in to haul away the bodies.

And some of us own guns, because, well, we're just enthusiasts. Owning a 1929-date stamped Mosin-Nagant is kind of like holding a piece of history in your hands.

precedents have been set. 1. Future presidents don't have to show their taxes. 2. Your kids can handle your "blind" trust. 3. Calling your opponent names is acceptable along with convicting them in public for crimes they haven't been tried in a court for.

We'll have to agree to disagree on this.

MOST Americans own firearm's for reasons other than pleasure or a tyrannical government. Terrorists have demonstrated more than adequately your firearms are useless as either prevention or mitigation.

I responded to a poster who entered the gun crappola to the thread and have no wish to continue the off-topic with you.

Better than setting a precedent that you can allow soldiers to die while you do nothing, have the mysterious deaths of multiple people investigating you hanging over you, and can potentially get away with a serious mishandling of classified information. Oh and better than being known as the person who also allows her cronies to go to an island where they sodomize people for fun. She is the prime example of a truly sick individual who cares about no one but herself. At least Trump did say that he wanted to have ALL parties work together towards resolutions.


Her time will come. No one said she will be convicted yet. But Trump did say he would have a prosecutor go through her case with a fine tooth comb and if she were convicted she would be locked up.


Hillary has called everyone and their brother so many derogatory names it's appalling. Does it only count when it is done on national tv?
