Calm and to the point why the talking points on gun control are spot on
Bevin was a Republican. And this was a carefully crafted political informercial. I agree with it, but it's a BS post.

He is our Ex-Governor and a Republican.
(Kentucky is a red state and most people here hated him.)

I don't care if you label him a Democrat or Republican, by any name he was just a bad Governor. Period.


At times, he could come across alright, but trust me he wasn't.

I don't know anything about this guy or his views and policies on other matters, but he is absolutely correct on this issue. Guns or no guns, if we promote and champion a thug society, why would we expect anything other than a thug society when the rubber hits the road?
It's about being raised properly. The high rates of single parenthood brought to us by the welfare state which encourages the birth parents to live apart. The crime comes from males 16-25 raised in a single parent environment. 85% of the males in prison grew up without a father.

He was an outsider. Not sure how he got elected. Even Republicans hated him. I guess they voted for him because he was a Republican.

The welfare state didnt cause single parenthood, freedom did.

Mom doesnt have to stay with her abusive husband, and no one can force them to get married anymore. women also have the freedom to work and dont need their fathers to sign off on apartments.

Freedom didn't cause single parenthood to sky rocket. Welfare state did.

lol That you actually think an overwhelming men are abusing the birth mother is absurd. It's about never living together in the first place.

And what's wrong with a father or any family member helping?

The conclusion you reached is not based on any studies. None. Just more victimhood mentality from the left. When will it ever stop?

I mean, come on people.

Why are dates hard to check, and basic facts so hard to confirm?

Because it is easier to post a link and run then do 15 seconds of checking.
