    It is definitely all about the latter. Unlike a girl's dorm where all their periods sync up together, the lefties tend to go into their own individual cycles of TDS that seems to last for a couple of weeks which manifists itself in a sudden rash of uncontrollable outbursts of venom and then they are gone for a while. All easily documented by one reading the titles and number of orange man bad threads they create over a period of a month or so.
    This hours rant is how and why it's OK to be illegal.

    So. You exaggerate when you say "the only thing" and then you pretend there is actually a list..

    If they're old enough to get killed in a school shooting, they're old enough to have a say in what type of weapons they will have to hide from.

    BTW, there is no such thing as a "democrat party".

    And most shooters are white males. Does that mean we should be suspicious of all white males?

    Since blacks shoot blacks in about the same number as whites shoot whites with about one seventh the population, I would say no.

    But I don't expect to be shot by a black man because I don't live near a ghetto and I'm not a black man.

    Well, in America, you're far more likely to be shot than you are on the Canadian side of the border. Just saying.

    I bet there is a point there somewhere, but I haven't discovered it yet.

    Don't waste our time. Come back to us when you're a bit more informed.

    (Mueller Page 181) For that reason, this Office 's focus in resolving the question of joint criminal liability was on conspiracy as defined in federal law, not the commonly discussed term "collusion."

    So you don't like the laws around here? Maybe Russian laws might be better suited for you? Or how aboutSomalia? You don't even have to pay income tax down there.

    BTW.... 34 indictments (so far) might give you a clue as to what Trump was obstructing.

    Most I like, some I don't. Does whether I like them have something to do with the subject? Periodically, someone will write an article on ridiculous laws in the US. This one appears to fit in a category all by itself, taking a perfectly good law and then contriving it to fit a situation.

    McConnell is the swamp tRUMP was going to drain. Now tRUMP and supporters are part of the swamp.
    They've been duped, yet again.

    tRUMP has employees that knowingly hired illegal immigrants at some of his golf courses. Those criminal that knowingly hire illegals still work there and are not in jail as they should be.
    Until we clean our easy criminals, it will be difficult to go after the difficult criminals.

    Like tRUMPS employers who knowingly hired illegal immigrants. When will you demand your own kind be jailed? Criminal employers.

    Not 1 single tRUMPer ever proved illegals get to vote.
    But you can be a hero to tRUMPers and be the 1st.
    Prove undocumented immigrants can vote.
    Else, like all other tRUMPers, we'll assume it's ALL made up.

    I don't exaggerate. It's a metaphor. I don't believe it takes too much effort to recognize rhetorical figures.

    The fact that they are here illegally means they are criminals, they have committed a crime by coming here (or overstaying their visa). No other crime is necessary to call them criminals. 100% of illegal aliens are criminals by definition.

    "Mexico is "the leading nation of origin for U.S. unauthorized immigrants," Pew writes..."
    https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/03/08/517561046/how-americas-idea-of-illegal-immigration-doesnt-always-match-reality


    "Any alien who (1) enters or attempts to enter the United States at any time or place other than as designated by immigration officers, or (2) eludes examination or inspection by immigration officers, or (3) attempts to enter or obtains entry to the United States by a willfully false or misleading representation or the willful concealment of a material fact, shall, for the first commission of any such offense, be fined under title 18 or imprisoned not more than 6 months, or both, and, for a subsequent commission of any such offense, be fined under title 18, or imprisoned not more than 2 years, or both."

    I wasn't deleting the post, I was deleting two extra copies of the same post. I have no need to start over.

    Dumb. There have been several school shootings at elementary schools. Are you seriously suggesting elementary school students should have the right to vote?

    .
    Actually it is not a metaphor.
    met·a·phor A figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. It was applicable, it just exaggerated the quantity.

    (Edit-Added) I'll put it another way, if Trump has said something like that, it would be called a lie.
