MM, just a heads up. I'm not going to tolerate your argument by weblink loophole where you throw some gratuitous insults or irrelevant opining which fails to capture the relevant points from the article. If you care for me to read what you link to then you need to at least point me in the direction of the relevant points.

2) I would favor removing / revising the laws which prevent investigation of these issues, as would I think most "on the left."
More details about the President's commission, again assuming you're genuinely interested and aren't just playing dumb again.

Seriously, this stuff isn't hard to find. I can only assume a lack of interest on your part.

Another reason to not vote for Biden, well, the same reason as before actually: He is an idiot.
Biden: “Instead of standing there and teaching a cop, when there’s an unarmed person coming at them with a knife or something, you shoot them in the leg instead of in the heart is a very different thing."
How are you "unarmed" if you have a knife? And shooting them in the LEG? Doh!

If you happen to be in a situation where there are other people around, it's FAR less injurious to innocent bystanders to shoot "center mass" than it is to risk missing by trying to hit an arm or leg. Even if you managed to hit the arm or leg, the bullet would likely continue traveling on and could hit an innocent bystander.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostIt is, once again, a choice of the evil of two lessers.
Look, we know who Trump is, and an election is coming .... the fact that the Democrats can't do any better than Uncle Joe BIDEN is..... staggering.
He wasn't my first choice. I would rather have gone Klobuchar or Harris or Buttigieg; I liked both Steyer and Bloomberg. I was even hoping that some moderate non-Dem challenger would make a substantive mark, like John Kasich, etc.
