MonkeyPox was discovered in 58.....and the 1st human cases around 1970. Not to mention the long existent smallpox vaccine is rated at 85% effective in preventing it in humans. They will have a hard time selling me on this being the next crisis.....

2nd Amendment Fallacy

Posted By Greg Shaffer

This is the debate you want to have? AGAIN? 

The 2nd is all about the right to protect yourself, whether it be from an individual or a collective of individuals, yes, even a rogue government.

So lets see.....which of these events are you referring to?

1839 - Daguerreotype photography process announced

1861 - The 1st shot of the Civil War was fired near Charleston SC

1914 - Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Inc officially recognized at Howard University (1st Black Fraternity)

1923 - The 1st autogyro flight

1973 - Secretariat won the Triple Crown by 31 lengths

2007 - The 1st ever iPhone was unveiled

None? smile

Hillary sat for 11 hours facing questions on Benghazi and nothing came out of it. These guys are too chicken to even testify because they know they are implicated. 

Trying to understand.....what has June 9th got to do with Jan 6th?

19 kids and 2 teachers dead at Texas elementary school

Right....so at 18 they can buy a house, vote, borrow money without a cosigner, join (or be drafted) the military and go die for their country but they cannot buy a gun, that about sum it up? If you are old enough to do all that AND DIE FIGHTING FOR YOUR COUNTRY then you damn sure should be able to buy a gun..... and buy/drink alcohol as well.....

There are no mods here...... the one admin corrected you regarding auto recurring charges, there are none. What else did you need?

Were you expecting someone to beg you to stay? LOL

It turns out there was NO school resource officer on the scene inside the school, so the killer wasn't confronted.

Either you are drastically wrong or 90% of Americans are the worst sort of hypocrites......

So ok to draft them to go die but they cant defend themselves here right? Horse shit. If you are old enough to do all the things adults do then you are old enough to buy a gun and that includes drink as well. Either raise the age to 21 on everything including voting, draft or join the military. Make it all 21 or make it all 18.....anything else is severely hypocritical......

From The Company That Sold The Rifle...

Posted By Greg Shaffer

Yep.....nothing wrong with teaching kids to respect guns early. My Dad started teaching me to shoot by squatting down with me standing between his legs because I couldnt hold the rifle up.....
