    Following the decision by the SCOTUS today, the fear mongers start to spread the lies to create the doubt and fear in the people in a fit of pique, acting like spoiled children who's favorite ***** supremacy toy just got taken away from them.

    CNN starts with

    https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/24/politics/abortion-ruling-gay-rights-contraceptives/index.html

    Which, of course, is a lie. A deception to scare people. Why? Because they didn't win. And because they didn't get to continue their exercise in genocide against the minorities they are so afraid of.

    When you think about it, this is exactly what many of us predicted the left would do. Lie. And they did.

    MSNBC says....

    In their dissent in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, Justices Stephen Breyer, Elana Kagan, and Sonia Sotomayor said that today’s ruling doesn’t just turn back the clock on reproductive rights, it also “places in jeopardy other rights, from contraception to same-sex intimacy and marriage.”

    The ideologues are frightened. And it shows.

    What specifically is the lie? Saying something COULD happen is not a lie. Saying something DID happen when it didn't would be a lie.
    It's funny, whenever gun control laws are talked about there are those who claim the govt WILL end up trying to take all our guns away. So are they lying?

    What’s the point of fear mongering when no matter who wins in November it’s the same Supreme Court?

    Many in govt have been quite vocal about wanting to take all our guns away. Claiming they want to do it is just repeating their words. Have you been living under a rock?

    Fear mongering lies about what could happen would be, the Dont say Gay Bill, which doesn’t exist by the way, will kill people. Fear mongering lies were when we were told if Trump becomes president, he’ll start WWIII. That kind of stuff:)

    Who specifically has stated they want to take all our guns away? How many congressmen and senators are we talking about?

    Why "could" it happen? The ruling today sets out why it won't . Of course, this is the foundation of fear mongering. A tactic the pejorative left know all too well. We predicted that the left would use these tactics, and they are. Why again?

    Biden says he wanted to confiscate all assault weapons. Considering every gun is a weapon capable of assault, he just said the quiet part out loud.

    Obama stated he didn’t think people should be able to own guns. Dukakis said something similar. Feinstein has been quite clear. Beto has said so. Pelosi also said the quiet part out loud when she let it slip that she hopes there’s a slippery slope with gun control.

    You can’t be this naive. Or maybe you’re one of those people who think, if no one says the actual sentence, “I want to ban all guns”, it doesn’t mean anyone wants to do it. They can say the same thing 100 different ways but I guess you need exact wording to believe it;)

    Both sides do this. Duly noted you ignored the example I provided ;)

    Maybe this is why people believe it...
    "In future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court's substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell," Thomas wrote, referring to decisions on contraception, sodomy and same-sex marriage.

    Hahahaha....you know damn well what he was referring to. He was referring to AR type guns and you know it.

    Wait...you DO realize Obama and Dukakis aren't in congress right? Please tell me you know this. What position does Beto hold again? So just for kicks I'll give you Pelosi. Wow...that's quite an uprising. Surely all guns will be confiscated by next year....derp!

    One vote. Show propensity. And since those details in those cases are predicated entirely differently, the rest of the decision clearly concludes that these aren't in future scope or harm. But you failed to read that far, and like the pollyanna media, chose to spread more fear.

    Francis isn't in congress. None of the others have stated they want to confiscate all guns.

    “AR type”guns are less dangerous than hand guns so I couldn’t give a **** what a brain dead moron claims he meant. Assault weapon is a catch all. It’s a meaningless EVERYTHING word. It means nothing to those educated as to what a gun is and it means everything and anything to the sheeple herd who think AR stands for assault rifle. If you can ban an assault style weapon, NOTHING is stopping every other gun from being banned because they’re more dangerous and they’re ALL assault weapons.

    Perhaps they were reporting what Justice Thomas Said today. If that's the case how can it be a lie?

    The conservative Supreme Court justice wrote a concurring opinion Friday in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization ruling, which overturns Americans’ constitutional right to an abortion.

    Thomas said justices should also reconsider other cases that rest on the right to privacy — specifically cases protecting contraception access and same-sex relationships.

    Nope. Assault weapons is not a catchall. Don't piss on my head and tell me it's raining. You know damn well they mean "AR type" guns.
    You DO realize the US at one time had an "Assault" weapons ban right? It was from 1994 to 2004. Tell me, was every other gun banned? The answer is no

    Democrats have at least three votes, and frankly, the WH, and both houses of congress. They are actively populating the federal bench with their minions who will make activist rulings to take guns because folks can't possible defend themselves from the government they worship. We acknowledge the inclination and comment on it isn't fear mongering. It's simply pointing out the facts. It isn't speculation like you're engaging in.
