Sooooooo indictment coming ? Any normal citizen would already be in jail.

Racist or not racist, lol.
But I guess you'd have to live in central Maryland to understand why I'm asking.
Prince George’s Co. to enforce teen curfew to combat crime: ‘These kids don’t just need a hug’
Prince George’s County marked its deadliest month in decades — with 24 killings investigated by police in August, alone — and a rise in violent crime by repeat offenders, Alsobrooks said during a news conference.
There have 350 reported carjackings in the county so far this year — a 52% increase over last year, and juveniles make up more than half of all carjacking arrests.
Of the 84 juveniles arrested for carjacking offenses this year, 55 had prior arrests and 34 had prior arrests for a previous violent crime or a gun offense, according to Prince George’s County Police Chief Malik Aziz

Hi Arizona1, Women are registering to vote in numbers I’ve never witnessed.
They should have registered in the same large numbers in 2020 .... and more importantly they should have in 2016.
But if the story is true, the more conservative folks on this board need to accept that there's a lot of contempt of the current right-wing and if they lose elections, it aint cuz they were rigged.
The real question now is .... will Trump be indicted for one, two, or three criminal offense ?
lol good one, Al. But I have sympathy for young people at the bottom of our economy who tried to advance themselves. But when college tuitions go up 8% per year for 20 years, and starting salaries only went up 2% per year, the system was rigged against them.
In the 40 years since I graduated, college tuition has gone up TENFOLD. As for starting salaries .... not so much.
Hi Gmenfan, I agree with that. I mean in 2000 the Republicans controlled the ultimate Florida vote recount. And guess who won.
But in the case of 2020, 2 of the states AZ and GA were republican controlled. And PA and Michigan weren't even close.
If the popular vote had been close, there could have been reason to question the outcome, but that vote count wasnt close either.
You have to accept that Trump lost cuz so many voters hate his gutz. And his antics after the election justified their voting choice. Remember, there was no blue wave of election results. More proof the voters simply wanted to get rid of Trump.
Hi bbotcs, ya know, if Trump hadnt spent 3 hours ENJOYING the attack on the Capitol, and had called off his loyal misguided followers, you might have a case.
Also - how'd that Arizona recount go ? I think we landed on Biden ending up with even more votes.
Asking the Georgia state government to "find" 12,000 votes is not the same as asking for a fair count. Its asking to end run and ignore our democratic process.
The media didnt fabricate these things.
Hi bbotcs, The disintegration of America is getting worse.
I agree.
Traitor to the US Constitution insanely demands he be reinstated as President.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-demands-either-new-election-immediately-or-make-him-rightful-president-now/ar-AA11eDBr
The real question, what do you call people who are still loyal to the guy who violated his constitutional oath of office, tried to pressure election officials to fabricate votes, and lied about having Top Secret documents in his home ?
Trump PAC paid nearly $1 million to defense lawyers in July alone as Georgia and New York probes heated up
Nice to see that peoples' donations are going to a worthy cause, lol.
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/08/22/trump-pac-paid-lawyers-almost-1-million-amid-georgia-new-york-probes.html
wow. I'm sorry to hear that.
Trump lovers and Capitol stormers are the RINOs.
Reagan Republicans are the true Republicans.
Hi Al, yes he does, but it needs to be done through a procedure. And the higher the classification, the more stringent the review. And in the case of TS or TS/SCI what usually gets unclassified is a redacted version of the content. You know this as well as I do.
You cant just say "I'm the President and I declare this super sensitive stuff unclassified".
And the FBI raid .... was because repeated requests to return the documents were ignored.
"The National Archives and Records Administration had confirmed in February that it had sought to recover 15 boxes of records from Mar-a-Lago that it deemed improperly removed, including some marked as “classified national security information.” The Archives confirmed at the time that it had been in touch with the Justice Department about the recovered documents. At the time, the Archives said it had had “ongoing communications” with Trump’s team about recovering missing presidential records."
If Trump had magically unclassified them, he could have told NARA that he did, make copies of them, and send the originals back. But he didnt and I cant wait for him to be charged .... along with Geogria election racketteering.
Hi Al, if they were secret documents or even top secret documents I'd say maybe. But TS/SCI not a chance. But as we all know, trump and lawyers will say anything :)
All Americans must be able once again to pledge allegiance to “one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”
Hi Al, how are you ? To be clear, we should be pledging allegiance to the US, not to a political party, or to Trump .... right ? Cuz the people who stormed the Capitol in an attempt to violate our constitutional process and who are a representation of right wing America, werent doing it for America, they were doing it for Trump.
Also - where does having highly classified documents fit in with allegiance to America ? It's kinda the opposite.
Stop complaining about FBI's Trump search and pay attention to Georgia. That's the crime.
As I've been saying for some time now.

Attorneys for Giuliani were told Monday that he is a “target” of the criminal probe.
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-election/rudy-giuliani-testify-grand-jury-wednesday-georgia-election-interferen-rcna43473
So here's how it works - Step 1. Make it clear to Giuliani that they have enough evidence to put him away foir what's rest of his life,
Step 2: Convince Giuliani to testify against Trump in exchange for leniency.
Step 3: Indict Trump with charges that if he's convicted, will prevent him from running for public office.
Tucker Carlson: Trump ‘obviously’ going to be indicted
https://news.yahoo.com/tucker-carlson-trump-obviously-going-151615858.html
The first of many I suspect.
Trump supporters are the RINOs, not the Reagan Republicans.
Hi arizona1, I think we all agree its ok to demand a state official fabricate votes out of nowhere to change an election outcome.
And that its perfectly ok to storm the capitol building, perhaps to lynch elected officials without a trial, for a reason that's not even true
And that its perfectly ok to have TS/SCI documents in your possession even though you no longer have the clearance to possess them.
I mean why would anyone have issues with people who believe such things ? lol.
Yes you can campaign, and you can even get elected. I just said it would be difficult.
I still think its a race between Trump announcing his candidacy and the Geogia AG filing election interference charges against him.
But the FBI also found envelopes addressed to Vladimir Putin c/o The Kremlin, Moscow, Russia along with the documents too.
It's tough to campaign from a jail cell.
Hi Al, all of these irreconcilable differences can be easily solved by secession.
I dont think I'm stretching it at all. Based on the voting last week, over 200 republican representatives and most republican senators are against raising the legal age for purchasing semiautomatics from 18 to 21. When in fact 25 would be a better age - and yet even 21 isnt acceptable to them.
And as for the fathers taking responsibility - you mean they'd offer to drop out of college or quit their jobs to supervise the baby for a few years. I seriously doubt that.
GM Al, let's take a look at the facts. MAGA America:
1) Thinks the election was stolen
2) Thinks its ok for college aged kids to buy semi-automatic weapons and go berserk with them
3) Thinks its ok for a guy to get a woman pregnant and give her no choice but to have the baby with the guy having no legal responsibility for any of it.
The wide brush was already there. I'm just pointing out what the brush entails.
I still think the west coast will secede first, but only cuz they can afford to.
Ex-AG Bill Barr testified there's an 'obvious explanation' why other Pennsylvania Republicans fared better than Trump in 2020, and it wasn't voter fraud
Ummmm a lot of voters get turned of by what is known as the "flaming asshole" factor. Just sayin'.

Sorry Arizona1, it isnt just the guns any more than its the cars. But insist all you want. But you may want to take an arithmetic refresher course too. And them explain arithmetic to Mr. Hoyland.
It's sad that the right wing can't distinguish between the right to own guns and keeping guns out of the hands of people who are immature or mental unfit to be trusted with them.
Does the dumb-fuck right wing think 5 year olds should be able to buy and use guns ? Why arent they in Washington right now protesting the gun rights of 5 year olds are being infringed upon ? Cuz the 2nd ammendment says nothing about age restrictions.
They should just form their own country and get it over with.
Hi Arizona1, for starters, Canada has 1/10 the population of the US. Second, America has a culture that glorifies violence. Did Canada make the TV show "The Sopranos" ? or "Breaking Bad" ? or "The Walking Dead" ? The US entertainment industry did. You know - the institutions that claim "violence has no place here" because one guy open hand slapped another. lolol.
Did you know that Canada has about 3,000 car fatalities per year compared to 36,000+ in the US. Just like you, I blame the cars.
GM Al, if anyone uses the word “insurrection” to describe January 6th ....
Is the far right really concerned about semantics ?
Whatever you want to call it - it was a violent attack against Congress for the misguided purpose of attempting to prevent the procedure that confirms the states elected Biden.
And as it turns out, the far right had weapons staged nearby to be used if Trump invoked martial law or whatever.
So in conclusion, there was no voter fraud, Biden won the election, and the people being sent to jail for their roles on Jan 6 deserve to be there.
People who believe otherwise are the "hopeless, non-thinking, brainwashed tools ". I give the US another 15 - 20 years before it dissolves.
Hi arizona1 - and 68 in 40 years is that much worse ? Especially given that 65% of our population is white and 15% is black ? Do some math for once.
And this conversation started with you saying you cant recall any mass shooting committed by african americans. Clearly you are mistaken.
And why do you ignore non-mass shooting that claim thousands of lives each year ? Do you not care about them ? You may not but I do. And check out the gun violence stats by race. Dont be too shocked at what you find out.
By the way, my wish to see the legal age to purchase semi-automatic weapons raised to age 25 would in fact address the male aggression problem regardless of race.
Electronic safety locks would prevent or at least seriously deter young men from using stolen guns.
Hi Arizona1, who cares about anything before 2005 ?
But your chart still proves my point - plenty of african american mass shooters. So Thank you.
Hi bbotcs, for the past 20+ years our culture has descended to where there are almost no consequences for lying or other bad anti-social behavior. We all grew up in fear of our parents, school authorities, and just about every other authority.
That fear has disappeared for a long time now. Adults dont want to be the "bad guys" toward their younger generation. For one thing, its a lot of work, lol. So the younger generation knows they can get away with a lot more than we did.
Hi Arizona1, do you only care about mass shootings or do you care about ALL gun violence ? By the way, that you claim you cant recall any mass shootings committed by african american men says so much about your media sources and how you filter information to fit what you want to believe.
I care about all gun violence and there's a specific demographic that is responsible for most of it. But we also need to deal with angry social-misfit white (and asian) young men too. So increasing the legal age for purchasing hand guns and semi-automatics and establishing a waiting period for those types of firearms would be a welcome change - and wouldnt violate the 2nd amendment - which my Maryland representatives have trouble understanding.
Here's some info for you that might help. This is not the only source for it - its a widely accepted statistic.

I'm just the messenger.
Hi Al, wellll it's not completely racist cuz increasing the legal age to buy guns and extending the waiting period along with better background checks addresses gun violence cause by angry despondent white kids.
Thanks for these stats Arizona1. Based on them, this is the legislation congress should approve:
1. Let the deep south secede from the USA. That would solve a good portion of our gun violence problem.
2. Do nothing about Wyoming and Alaska. They only have 1.3M people combined so their stats have no overall effect on the USA gun violence stats.
3. Did DailyKos print stats on racial demographics ? Hawaii, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island have far fewer african americans than the national average. And as this link indicates, african americans are easily 10 times more likely to commit violent crime than anyone else. So I approve of increasing the legal age, and having a long waiting period for purchasing guns, but if DailyKos cares about stats, what we really need to bring down gun violence is "young lower income african american men control" legislation.

Manchin: ‘Makes sense’ to raise age for buying semi-automatic rifles

Thanks. We have to accept that our kids dont grow up as fast as they used to. And they dont switch to "too much to lose" mentality until their mid-20s.
Different solutions for different problems. Most of these multiple shooting arent done by criminals. They're done by young adults who want to be on the news -- posthumously.
My approach to criminals is pretty simple. They tend to use stolen guns. You can electronically lock your car. You can electronically lock your phone.
Electronically lock fucking guns.
1 down and 49 states to go - although 25 would be a much better legal age for handgun and semiautomatic purchases
