Not really broken. It's functioning very well for the wealthy.

only for the ones not concerned with diminishing returns.
contempt for government breeds unrest and unrest destroys nations by revolt and revolution.

It's happened in Russia, China, France, several countries in South East Asia, and a boat-load of South and central American countries. Don't think it can't happen here.

hope you don't mind ...
West Virginia Voter... last day to cast your absentee Balled ...

But if you can call your local court house and find a drop off box or just take to a voting place ... becouse with the way Louis De joy has made all the post office in America slow just to block votes from getting in before the deadline that he put in place...

for just that ... so demarcates can't be counted... becouse of the snail mail ... this is not right and is in ethical to do ... again do not put in the mail take to a drop off box or any voting place near you ...

or just vote in person ... or take to your court house ... will be open till Saturday for early voting... make all votes count ... which can change our lives ... with Biden... Trump has failed with this covid 19 virus just remember that as you cast your ballads

u will be doing the right thing for our country to be safer ... TCBS...

Trump sure is trying his best ...as he put in people to slow the mail down ... trying to say votes can't be counted after the third ... again is in ethical ... he has rallied with no face masks and his own cabinet has it now in mike pences end... he does not care how many people die ... and I say think of that while your casting your vote you may be next ... these could be your family ... and there is know med to help ...they have debunk all of them so far ... an the repubs never got the last stimulus ck out till they put in the new Judge they want to corrupted our country ...and take away preexisting conditions an want to over turn the care act that helps millions ... they have no plan ...just the one where ever it lands... u may die ... they do not care !


who to vote for ...should at this time ...be a know brainier ... look at the no. dead ...

I'll agree that lives will change with Biden

- They'll pack the court, leaving no checks and balances the forefathers so intelligently set up for the people - Democrats will have a tyrannical system in place

- They will try to take as many guns as they can. The unconstitutional and unabated things they will do with their newly stacked deck, the 2nd amendment (that the forefathers thought was the most important second only to freedom of mind) will be neutered

- They'll continue to play racial politics, take 1st amendment away by ushering in hate speech laws - and the media will be more than happy to help

- The radicals that the Dems support will take more and more, and when they don't get their way - will burn a lot more cities down while the Dems watch. Remember the summer of love in Chaz?

I can go on and on, on the changes. The most free country will lose it's freedom. It certainly won't be the America that the people bled and lost their lives for.

Again we hear from paid CANADIAN Trump troll #2 who like his employer and hero will not ever answer a direct question I'll try once more: what became of slightly less aggressive paid CANADIAN Trump troll #2?
Maybe he's working other antisocial media lately?
And I know you won't answer but I'll ask again, do you still get paid if your orange boy does not win?

Well, they are good ideas to consider. The way I see it, We can not control the news so we might as well not worry about it. Therefore, current events might as well be discussed as Fantasy that we all have common experience of, just a topic for philosophical discussion.

I have respect for Bobtail, I’veGotTheGirl, and even Trump. Might as well give him respect since the second election is ending.

It is unfair to take peoples guns away considering some people use them as hunting devices for living off the land. I agree it is unfair in general to take away peoples guns. I had not thought before that it is akin to protecting ones privacy and free thought. The right to free speech and to peaceably assemble are important for preventing disharmony from others getting under one’s skin.

Considering there are other weapons like Fists and pepper spray which are closer range and a significant deterrent, as well as perimeter alarm and barricade systems, I do not see the importance of guns. They seem to be more of a source of threats to others about their own business, actual taking of lives, hearing damage, roof damage and water leaks from falling projectiles, and lead poisoning from game meat and environmental contamination. This is tyranny too.

What would be more manly than using a gun would be to sneak up on an enemy with a gun, take their weapon away, and give them an old fashioned punch.

I can’t help but wonder if either candidate is going to do what they say they’re going to do.

Now here’s the real question. If Trump loses the election, will he still push to get the vaccine before his term ends?

I believe you didn't, I just said you were clueless about that topic.
One of the first moves of a dictator or someone that's a would be power grabber is to disarm the population.
It won't happen in this country, everyone is armed or there are enough guns in private citizens hands to arm everyone.
I just remembered; don't know if you've ever seen one and I don't think I have for several years but my dad who was a decorated Korean war Marine veteran for years had a bumper sticker that read:
"I'll give up my guns when they pry them from my cold dead fingers". and I promise you he meant it!
There are an awfully large amount of veterans out there that feel the same.........................

Of course he will. He genuinely cares about Americans. He's not a career politician like Pelosi who at this very minute is still holding coronavirus relief for ransom because she thinks it's a power grab. She cares about her party more than the people. This is the swamp that Trump is trying to drain - all of it an uphill battle especially with the help of big tech and the media

At least according to Ben Ginsberg, the single most prominent Republican election lawyer in the country,

"Trump has enlisted a compliant Republican Party in this shameful effort. The Trump campaign and Republican entities engaged in more than 40 voting and ballot court cases around the country this year. In exactly none — zero — are they trying to make it easier for citizens to vote. In many, they are seeking to erect barriers.

All of the suits include the mythical fraud claim. Many are efforts to disqualify absentee ballots, which have surged in the pandemic. The grounds range from supposedly inadequate signature matches to burdensome witness requirements. Others concern excluding absentee ballots postmarked on Election Day but received later, as permitted under state deadlines. Voter-convenience devices such as drop boxes and curbside voting have been attacked...."

"...This attempted disenfranchisement of voters cannot be justified by the unproven Republican dogma about widespread fraud. Challenging voters at the polls or disputing the legitimacy of mail-in ballots isn't about fraud. Rather than producing conservative policies that appeal to suburban women, young voters or racial minorities, Republicans are trying to exclude their votes."

How much easier should it get? Should we get the lazy people who can't even get their own food, uber eats to pick up their ballot? Perhaps they can vote by Xbox.

I wonder how much pissing and moaning people were doing back before cars. I'm pretty sure just the energy it takes to saddle up a horse to vote, is less than what is needed today.

They cared more about their vote than their inconvenience - because it's worth it. People that don't think their time during one day is worth it, probably shouldn't have a voice - how much can they really care?
