President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

I don't like the way this is shaping up. I'm not a doctor , but this is scary in a long-term way.

 

Are Georgia Voting Machines Secure? Frankly, My Dear, They Don’t Give a Damn

 

But the guy down the street got drunk, and beat his kids and wife. At least we have Ragu's "smoking doesn't hurt anyone except the smoker" opinion.

 

I think that the debate about whether alcohol is a net positive or benefit is a reasonable one to have.

I'm just responding to the assertion that there is absolutely zero benefit that comes from it. That's not the case.

 

Not necessarily. He's a Congressman. He's in a suburb of Washington, D.C., and a victim of a mass shooting. They'll have gotten him onto an operating table damn fast, and the odds are that he got top notch care from the best staff that they had available. A wound like that always has the potential for complications, but it's not like a field medic patched him up and he was going to take an hour to get to field grade surgery and then be evacuated to Germany to get it done dead right. Odds are that he'll heal pretty well... but understand that I'm talking in a general sense and know no details whatsoever. For instance it is entirely possible that he'll be wearing a colostomy bag for a couple of months while his intestines heal.

 

That's like a lot of things. It depends on how it is used. A cold beer after cutting the grass or while watching the game is one thing, a twelve pack every night and a case a day on weekends is quite another.

 

Understood. Public policy isn't pretty. That why most of it is so ineffective.

 

I agree with you 100%, @YankeeFan is not going to like this.

 

Getting laid is a tangible benefit.

 

This is surprising coming from you. Sounds like socialism. Take away rights to benefit the whole.
