Lmao.


Are you laughing at his rhetoric or his grammar? The word "most" can precede an adverb, and terrifyingly is a real word.

I think it could be c) that this is the most terrifying thing is Nausi's world. That we could be trying to prevent those with psychological disorders from hurting themselves or others.

I understand his point, that it's a potentially easy-to-abuse system.

But if that's the most terrifying part of the scenario...

The media made the bed, now they have to lie in it. They created the opening for Trump to exploit their lack of credibility because they incited the initial public mistrust. "The Boy who Cried Wolf" is a lesson in sociology that they clearly still don't get. Why should we take them seriously now?
That's an excuse to not think for yourself. So instead of following the media people have chosen to follow whatever Trump spray farts on twitter. That's not even a lateral move.

That's like the commentary that Trump was a protest vote to stick it to the coastal elites. Despite the fact Trump is one of the coastal elite.

Uhh, there are plenty of people who don't take stock in either source. It's not an either/or scenario.

Right and all those irs abuses of tea party groups were totally benign too!

Liberals never come out and advocate for their ideas. If hey did they would get schilacked.

I know I left my Passive-Aggressive to English dictionary around here somewhere. I used to be fluent, but I haven't had to deal with ex-girlfriends for a while.

I know which post you're referring to, I just couldn't tell if it was a shot at me or a group of people in general. It's whatever to me either way since taking potshots at each other is half the fun so long as nobody takes it too personally. I was just trying to clarify.

You can't make any legitimate case that he cares about guns getting into the hands of the wrong people anymore.
Operation Fast and Furious is an even better example.
Started under W's watch I would note. And whoever thought up the term gunwalking should be strung up by the thumbs right next to whoever thought up the scheme.

Fast and Furious was on Obama's watch, but there were other similar "gunwalking" schemes under W's, so you're partially right.

Technically you are both right.

Fast and Furious was thought up and implemented very lightly during the Bush admin, but the Obama admin took it 10 steps further. What's worse is, how the Obama admin bungled it up so badly that it cost the lives of American citizens, and Obama has the audacity to blame that on Bush.

He was willing to give guns to the cartels just so they would use them against Americans so he could further the need for reform.

Hate to break it to you Chanti, but the DOW doesn't the economy make.

And as the clock slowly winds down on Obama, remember back when I called it at the beginning of what is termed the "stupidity of Obama."
