The term "dweeb" fits him like a glove.

So I accept that mass shootings anyplace people gather are the collateral damage to gun ownership in the USA.

I would still put money on the fact that the majority of the millions of AR whatevers and the AK 47 owners wouldn't lift a finger to help a neighbor in distress.

Just my .02.

Regular guns? An AR whatever as you say or AK or any other rifle is as regular as it gets. The type of firearm used does not effect ammunition performance. A 223 fired from a bolt action varmint rifle does exactly the same thing as one fired from an AR 15.


The AR 15 does not magically modify the ammunition put into it into some sort of highly destructive Star Wars sort of thing. Honestly, where do people come up with this stuff?

If what was said is a death threat it's only because Dumba-- Beto said something that was effectively a declaration of war against the Constitution.

Hot damn the Democrats have a trash list of candidates if Biden is the smart, honest one...

Note: I actually respect Yang's attempt at trying to mathematically and scientifically solve problems (he might be wrong but, at least he is trying). However, since Democrats are the party of identity politics he stands no chance. East Asian males are as low on that totem pole as Staright, White, Christian males.

If Beto were to get elected and carry out this proposal of his, I have no doubt this country will experience a civil war of sorts. As divided and hate-filled as this country is, and he wants to throw gasoline on the fire.

at this point i think he'll say damn near anything to get his name in the news. his campaign is teetering on the abyss despite the tens of millions in donations he received.

Beto is irrelevant, and he knows it. Saying outlandish things gets him back in the spotlight. He knows that, too.


No publicity is bad publicity? I disagree, but I'm not a politician.
