US Politics

[Jimenez]

That might of held water when the constitution was written but not in the last 100 years. You would hope it would restrain Trump but when it’s his supporters who are the most likely to use guns that’s unlikely.

Restraining hate speech and defamation and introducing IDs that can assist is nothing for the average, law abiding, citizen to fear. This one welcomes it.

Something the Democrats oppose when you go & vote

What I really want to know tho, is if tylenol effects pregnant men in the same way as pregnant women?

Don't be silly. Men can't get...oh.

That’s stupid. Rather than frighten women unnecessarily they could simply restrict the availability, as we do.

By chance I was talking today to a group of midwives and paediatricians all of whom were disgusted by Trump’s comments and the likely effect on the confidence of their clients.

So they can go into loads of shops and get a pack in each. Another full proof cunning plan. 😳

 

[Rudi Hedman]

No worries. Not been in one for at least 50 years and always have spare clothes in the car anyway. I am naturally risk adverse.

The truth will out. Possibly much more quickly than you could possibly imagine.

It’s risk averse, dear Morris Minor driver.

If you went in a betting shop you’d probably faint being near several working class people rather than the bowls club.

Sisters who trashed Kirk memorial 'are homeless' as they beg for cash

Kerri Rollo, 23, and Kaylee Rollo, 22, were arrested last week and charged with vandalizing a makeshift Kirk memorial outside the Benton County Courthouse in Arkansas.

These 2 women vandalised a Charlie Kirk memorial ""Kirk 'lived as he died - promoting violence.'"

So ladies what you are saying is that bad things happen to bad people? I guess that's why you lost your job and are now homeless.

Jimmy Kimmel show enjoyed record ratings but that is to be expected as people tuned in to hear what he would say. The real test will be in a month's time when the fuss has died down and the social media crowd have moved on to the next new shiny toy.

I read somewhere that his contract is up for renewal in January? That will be an interesting conversation.

 

[Spindle]

How does that make the shooter a “lefty”? Or are you making assumptions?

Yes it does duh

They can, and do. It’s far from foolproof but it is a barrier that perhaps stops immediate harm.

Not this one. Nor apparently do a majority of Democrats in the USA.

The opposition is to it being required as a political tool to disenfranchise the poor who may not yet possess an acceptable ID.

Once a national scheme is established requiring everyone to hold a particular card, and not just show one of a variety of different cards, then there ought to be no objections at all.

It will have done him, and the pod casters opposing Trump, no harm at all.

Many have suggested this will cost Bob Iger his job. Kimmel has clout.

ID cards in America are issued free to those who can't pay.

Great, pleased to hear this. Kimmel should lose his job too.

And they could also stop constructing high buildings people might jump off.
Or shoppers could go to more than one shop and buy some Tylenol in each one or order them online.
In any case aren't politicians elected to make these decisions?

We elect politicians who we trust to be sensible enough to listen to the consensus of scientific advice and not just that which matches their own prejudices.

The type of scheme that’s under debate here and that I want to see and would also hope the Americans would, is not voluntary. It would have to be held by every citizen and be the only card acceptable for official transactions.

Someone could be motivated to open random fire at an immigration processing centre for a variety of reasons. They might think they aren’t doing enough, just as they might think they are doing too much. We don’t know. You are making assumptions.

Nut cases exist.

How do voters know how sensible these politicians are before electing them?

They can, and do. It’s far from foolproof but it is a barrier that perhaps stops immediate harm.

Exactly thoughts of suicide are often a fleeting momentarily mood change and a smile by anyone can alter the mood and the descent into depression is ever so slightly lifted, even the time to visit six shops can be vital.

Why? Is voter fraud a big problem?
