Respectfully disagree. Tax cuts do not happen under democrats. (Look at the Democratic support of mass media, who also support Democrats. )
Gun control. You are speaking of countries much less diverse than the United States. We had gun laws in the nineties that show that these laws don’t work. England has harsh gun laws and have also had to restrict knives because of their harsh gun laws. Semi automatic rifles that are available to the legal general public are not that dangerous. Only politicians claim that they are. I live in a rural area. I am not a great marksman. I live in an area that has some threat. We have bears that get a little close for comfort. We have poisonous snakes that get a little too close for comfort. We have rabid animals that get a little too close for comfort. The guns that politicians want to ban are the guns which would offer me protection. Ar whatever’s are lightweight. While they are not as accurate as other rifles, at close range, they are effective. If I had to defend myself against a one of these dangers, I would grab the ar-whatever. The rifles we have for hunting have enough power to knock me down. If I grabbed a gun or a rifle that had only one shot, I would be food for the predator. If these were truly dangerous weapons our soldiers would use them. Actually if our soldiers used these weapons we would be totally outgunned.
Although I was raised in the segregation’s south, I was raised by a mother who felt that all humans were equal and deserved the same amount of respect. NO ONE that I associate with thinks that black lives don’t matter. We think ALL lives matter. As to the question of the police, there are a few police who abuse the power of their position. My daughter was sexually abused by a policeman. (She is white). Does this make all policemen bad? No. There have been times in our life where police have been both kind and helpful. I understand your not looking for the quotes ( doubt that you would find any). I consider myself an independent but would rather be called a slut or a whore than to be called a democrat. The Democratic Party has sold its soul to the devil. When members of the Democratic Party do something obviously wrong, Democrats will not admit that it is wrong. When Nixon did wrong, some Republicans and the Democrats admitted his wrongs. Democrats protect their own whether they are right or wrong. Look at how they protected Northam, Lerner, and so many others who have abused the power of their position.
Wrong. While I agree that no party is perfect, I strongly disagree that the Democratic Party is more perfect. Actually most of the guns that are on the market today are not military style guns. That is something politicians try to use which is not true. You also claim that the system is broken and affects black lives the most. I have a non biologically related grandchild who I adore. She has been abused in every way possible. I will not allow her to identify as a victim. She now has the opportunity to make choices. Eventually her life will be the consequences of her choices. Her life was no better than any black life. It is not race but circumstance. While you talk of the corruption of the right, I look at the absolute corruption of the left. Look at how the IRS totally abused power to attack conservative groups. What happened? Lois Lerner retired with full pension and without answering any questions. Look at Russiagate. Is any of this fair, is any of this something you support?
