    VP Kamala swoops in to save unemployed West Virginia coal miners

    You realize she's the mouth piece of those "two criminals", right? They're the ones who chose her for the job and they're the ones who vet everything she says. Who's really more "despicable" under these circumstances?

    Yoda's pandemic advice

    I'm tired of the whole "leads to the dark side" schtick they're on in the franchise. Yeah, yeah, yeah..."fear..." I get it. But this, from Yoda to Luke: "Attachment leads to jealousy. The shadow of greed, that is…Train yourself to let go of everything you fear to lose." And this from...

    No consequences

    Because they're politically useful.

    Why the death penalty should never be abolished.

    We're not going to get it right 100% of the time with anything we do. We're not perfect and we never will be. Using that as an argument not to do something is a feeble argument at best. It's not achieving perfection that's the goal, but the pursuit of it. With executions, control over the...

    Why the death penalty should never be abolished.

    This is why I don't have any problems with convicted criminals being on death row for years while the appeals process grinds slowly along. A death sentence should never be expedited in favor of the government.

    California Gun Control fails again

    There's still room for appeal on this matter. Let's see how this progresses.

    Enlighten me please?

    As another menu option, this falls under "who cares?" for me. It's an option on the menu. Choose it or not, just as you would any other menu item. As an agenda-driven issue for some, who would seek to eliminate meat-based foods, I don't care for it. That's about it for me.

    Medium Rare or Medium?

    I'd say you were right on the money.

    Good Riddance !!!

    Nothing about white supremacists makes any sense, other than an obvious ploy to suppress other people.

    Obama's son? Or De Blasio's?

    My point is that mixed race is an unbelievably common factor in the United States, but human nature tends to make people simplify their descriptors. Even without those insane purity laws of bygone years. And there are people who recognize both these things.

    Obama's son? Or De Blasio's?

    When we talk about people being of mixed race we're taking about REALITY, not the rainbows and unicorn farts of fantasyland that deniers pushing "racial purity" BS in our history talked about. Even Morgan Freeman pointed out Obama wasn't our first black President... was out first mixed race...

    Obama's son? Or De Blasio's?

    Quite a large percentage of "black" people in this country have white ancestors. In fact, almost all have mixed European and/or Native American blood. So Obama's mixed heritage shouldn't even come up in such matters, in my opinion. Big. Effing. Deal. As for "hate" crimes...also BFD as far as...

    Biden surprises me by making sense

    It doesn't matter what he said. He's pandering, like all politicians do. He won't do anything, his political party won't push any legislation on the matter, and even if they do it'll be so useless nothing will come of it. There's value in the political pandering on this subject, therefore...

    NO politician advances gun rights, not willingly. It's ALL a power play for them.
