Just plain stupid!

This is the most stunningly stupid argument for ignoring the evidence that we need to act to protect our planet and its inhabitants. Just plain stupid!

Give Congress Mueller's report....

With all the indictments, this investigation was not a waste of time and money. Americans paid for the investigation, we deserve to see the report, the whole report.

Big thanks to those who are "green"....

It would do a world of good if our President would begin advocating for "green" innovations and legislations. And, a big thanks to those who do.

60 years and nothing done for our planet...

My generation was ready and eager to step up to the plate on climate change. It is hard to believe it is so, but... since then, nothing much has been done by our democratic capitalistic leaders on both sides of the aisle.

A lesson to be learned...

John McCain, Barak Obama, and Hilary Clinton are all targets of Trump's blame. Interesting that there is no reciprocal drama from any of them. The blame just bounces off them and ends up right back in the lap of the blamer. We can all learn something from them.

Americans want sensible gun laws.

Sensible gun legislation is what the majority of Americans want. Sensible meaning, there is no good reason to have a bump stock or a semi-automatic in your closet. Americans want sensible gun legislation. Those who argue against it value profits more than lives.

A dangerous precedent...

The one who is calling out "false news" is the very one who is responsible for most of the false news. This is a dangerous precedent for our country when the "believers" of the false news believe what they hear.

Buying our guns doesn't make us friends...

Who and what do we stand with and for? Human rights and environmental protection should be our first criteria when becoming chummy with other nations. Just because they buy our guns and bombs does not make them friends.

Nuclear bombs are a travesty...

I describe myself as a "militant pacifist". I have never understood how it was more important to spend our money on guns and bombs rather than on education, health care, and saving our planet. Defense is one thing, nuclear bombs are a travesty that the few use to get rich.

Threats are not "free speech"!

In a democracy, all opinions about how to run our country are protected speech. Name calling, threats, put-downs, and lies, all done under the guise of "free speech" are not to be protected.

You are not free to harm...

I support your freedom to express your viewpoint, but there is no freedom to ridicule, put-down, or threaten any other person for who they are. You are not free to harm with your words.

This is the government we want...

No matter what evil name it is called, Democratic Socialism is the government "of the people, for the people, by the people". Running our government into debt for the benefit of the hyper-wealthy is not what we want.
