President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

No home build permits in January in our town.

 

What’s your explanation for the pro-Russia plank?
What’s your explanation for Trump wrongly taking Putin’s word over that of the American intelligence agencies?

 

You're talking about closing the barn door after the horses have gotten out.

This guy bought his gun a year ago. Adam Lanza used his mom's guns.

The next school shooter likely already has a gun, or access to one. So, maybe we should try to identify him, or at least follow up on specific, credible threats called into the FBI.

 

It means I don’t know why liberals are so opposed to providing extra security at schools.


Narrator: He knows why.

 

Manfort was a lobbyist, in it for the money. It's really that simple.

 

I mean, for these gigantic schools, you would be talking about a huge undertaking.

You'd also have to deal with arrival and dismissal, where kids would be vulnerable, and as we've seen with things like airport security, if you move the security perimeter out, you just change where a terror attack can happen.

 

Body armour would help as well.

What a sad state of affairs that kids have to go school as if they’re entering a prison.

Sad thing is, you’re right. Nothing is going to change. Kids need to be protected.

 

Take away science and math, fake subjects, and just teach them to be coal miners and landscapers. Then you’ll have the money to pay for each teacher to have a glock .40 and training.

 

And I understand that. I want my children to feel safe AND free at school. I’ve said I don’t think we should make schools into prisons, but we protect adults and all the inanimate objects we love with varying degrees of security, so why not kids? I don’t think a middle ground should be dismissed so easily if your goal is protection.

 

I'm not opposed to it. I'm also not opposed to mocking the intelligence of people who think it will make a dent in the problem. Schools have good security now. The school in question had an armed guard and locked points of entry.

It's Good Guy With A Gun delusional bullshit hoping to deflect away from the real problem.

 

What guns do you own, YF? Just curious.

 

Versus people who are desperate to punish law-abiding citizens so they can jerk off to a “gun-free” America.
