    Being fat costs society money. Having assault weapons puts society at risk

    What if I want to get a non fattening big gulp drink?

    As for assault weapons you do know what an "assault weapon" is don't you? What they call assault weapons are just semi automatic rifles that have certain cosmetic features such as barrel shrouds, adjustable stocks, pistol grips, bayonet lugs, ect. that might make it look like its something used in the army although it isn't. In the army they use full automatics or burst fire weapons which are generally not available to the public.

    The fact that you not only accept the govt telling you how much soda you can drink but your applaud it shows why your type can't run the country. You have no backbone at all and will trade freedom for perceived safety at every chance.

    So does 100 other health related choices people make daily, you going to control that as well?

    So do 100 other daily items that can cause death and injury, your going to control those as well?

    Grab a handful of self responsibility and try to be a adult for once, see how it feels.

    The only one with more dark parts of his closet that Trump is Bloomer. After attacking Trump daily on it for years how is the left going to try and defend Bloomer during a election? He can not win. How much has he spent and Crazy Bernie is still beating him so it's a dead issue anyways.

    Bernie can easily be beaten.

    I bet your said "Trump can not beat Clinton" too.

    I certainly did.

    His adds are dishonest.

    He is side by side with Obama talking about reducing crime by passing gun laws but . All his laws did was take away peoples rights
    .. so. No respectfor him on my part.

    Trump won. Quit being a 'sore winner.' That is TDS behavior. Bernie can beat Trump. Bloomberg can beat Trump, and his skeleton closet is nothing to Trump's skeleton mansion. Take a deep breath, accept what is going to happen, and live a nice life.

    Now for 'what ifs'? If Bernie takes more than half the minority vote in SC's dem primaries, all Trump fans and all other Dem fans better take a deep, deep breath, and get to work, for it is going to be a Bernie season.

    So your going with the "Bloomer is a asshat but not as big of one as Trump is" strategy.

    That's going to work ya think?

    Bloomer was a freaking lost in the debate against the lightweight dems on stage, worse than that he looked weak. He won't win the nomination baring any dirty tricks. If he does Trump will flay him on stage.

    I'm not a sore winner. I did not vote Trump in 2016 as I have said on here many times.

    Rugglesly, old friend, that is your silly "asshat" belief that understanding people do not hold.

    MayorMike held his own against the pack, and Trump will be minced if Mike is his opponent.

    You surely acting 'sore' about something. What is it?

    Any successful entrepreneur deserves my respect. I would take him over any non-businessman but I wouldn't vote for him.

    Held his own?

    Your delusional. He was the worst of the lot.

    I'm not sore, I want Bernie as the nominee as I've said. But if Bloomer gets it by the DNC screwing Bernie over again then the party implodes. So I'm O.K. with that as well.

    Bloomers said he would release 3 females from their NDAs ? Not the others? Asshat 101 right there......

    Oh I believe you would vote for a zombified Hitler before Trump, while calling Trump Hitler the whole time.

    The logic of the left.

    You keep misusing words you apparently misunderstand.

    Daffy Duck could beat Trump this time around. And, yes, you seem sore.

    Link a source that says Bloomberg held his own in that debate.

    What on Earth am I sore about? The DNC keeps setting up their poster nominees like Biden and Bloomer and they keep getting knocked down. It's downright joyous to watch! I love the DNC and lefties in chaos!!

    Oh please, OK lets go through a quick check list to see which of these items do you take responsibility for self regulating. You can respond identifying which ones you take responsibility for as opposed to delegating responsibility to the governments and agencies responsible.

    Do you personally set standards for;
    - what goes into the processed food you buy at the supermarket?;
    - the manner in which fresh food products are transported, stored and displayed in your local shops and how long they are allowed to remain on sale before disposal;
    - the safety features built into the cars you drive the planes you fly on;
    - the amount of lead in the fuel that powers them and the presence or not of catalytic converters;
    - the materials used in the construction of your house and all the consumer goods in it?
    - the connection of your property to public utilities including electricity, sewerage and gas? etc etc

    You see the thing is I'm pretty like me you've acquiesced to the State making decisions about these kind of things on your behalf - for the betterment and safety of the community as a whole.

    I mean I suppose you could choose to take responsibility for disposing of your own waste and dam the government for telling how you do it because its yours and you own it! But I have to say electing to to disconnecting from the public sewer system and digging a drop toilet in the back yard is probably going to annoy the neighbors a tad. Not to mention the public health issues that might crop up if everyone else decides to tag along and dig their own.

    My point is this. Why is suggesting a mandatory reduction in size of soda portions because consumption of soda is a major contributor to obesity in the US (true) a infringement of anyone's rights? It doesn't stop people from drinking soda after all, it just encourages them to drink less. How is this one issue different from all of the above? Obesity, like smoking and alhohol consumption etc is a major public health issue in the West, so why nitpick this one issue as (apparently) being an important reason to criticize Bloomberg.

    I mean if that's really is the most serious policy objection anyone on this forum has with his proposed election platform the man should probably be made President for life tomorrow. In reality? I think some people are just looking for a reason, any reason to attack Democrat candidates no matter how ridiculous that issue is. And, given the above this one is ridiculous.

    My friend, you are angry. It is obvious that Bloomberg held his own. If you think Sanders is a pushover for Trump, you are living in la la land.

    Many liberal pundits disagree with you:

    Don't like FOX writing that up? Howzabout CNN delivering the goods on LW pundits unanimously panning Bloomy?

    Perhaps you can explain how you are right when the LW pundits say otherwise? What argument do you have to counter theirs?
