Long story short of it, I have a little bit more acceptance of an opposer who doesn't try to disarm me first.
Exactly.

Biden should order all Federal Employees back to the office, the private sector should do the same. This would jump start the economy. Commuting, workers would buy gas, shop and go to restaurants for lunch Also, send the kids back to daycare. It would be a return to normalcy.

As for Jan. 6, I still can't figure out why they call it an insurrection.
Why would a state's rights ruling have anything to do with how women vote? I'd like to think most women are smart enough to know that Roe v Wade was a 10th Amendment issue, not an abortion issue.

Difficult to say for when it comes to politics, things usually have another meaning than what is said.

IE, one side says it is pro life yet supports the death penalty and is so ready to go to war. Another side says to get rid of guns for the children and yet, supports abortion to birth, if not beyond. Who can decide what a side stands for, what is the real reason behind this or that.

I sort of get a kick from some of my liberal sisters and brothers, of how they scream when a decision goes against them, that they talk of enslavement (nutshell) and yet, when someone wishes to say something that is counter to their opinion, those people are shouted down.

Just look at how men are told to shut up about matters of the womb for they have no horse in that battle and yet, their support is asked for, be their protest, vote, money, etc, to go against those who decide against women.

Hence, in this particular issue, admittedly, I may be like one political side or another in that I don't apply myself to the big point out front but another issue on the board. Take this issue, take another issue like, say, Bernie Sanders (who I would never vote for).....if someone wants to go hear him speak, I may give them lunch money to attend.

It is not that I believe what is on the platform but rather, I believe in their right of freedom of speech, the right to believe in who they wish.

Finally, one must keep in mind that even if one thing or another was this issue and not that.....there is always the danger of how another might misuse that decision for their own purpose.
