How To Make Sure That TFG Does Not Run For Prez In 2024.....

Have Congress enact a law that requires any person running for president is required by law to make his/her tax documents public. No exceptions.

This would be required the moment they declare their intentions to run. Even in the Party Primary for the nomination.

That would keep the grifter out on the sidelines in 2024.

Does Anyone Know How I Can Get A Letter To Michael Beschloss - the Historian?.....

I'm not on Facebook or Twitter - so I'd like to get a snail mail letter to him or maybe an e-mail to him.

Any idea as to how I can contact him?

I Just Finished Watching The 2 Part History Channel Program On Theodore Roosevelt......

I must say I found it very enlightening and it gave me a new respect for the man they called TR.

Talk about History repeating itself. Many of the things TR faced back then seem to have been recycled in very much the modern way of today.

I'm curious of what others here thought about this program if you watched it.

I can't wait for the next one they will feature on FDR.

I'm Watching Showtimes 'First Lady' And This Last Episode Was....

very timely. It featured the Sandy Hook shooting and the cheerleader that walked in Obama's 2nd Term D.C. Parade that was shot and killed a week later in Chicago. It was a very sad but timely episode.

When Congressman Steve Scalise Was Shot In The Baseball Field Ambush.....

were any new gun control laws put in place by Congress because it was one of their own that was shot?

What did we learn from that incident?

If This Shooting in Uvalde Didn't Happen - What Would They Be Talking About At The NRA Convention?..

If Tuesday didn't happen and there was no mass shooting at Ross Elementary School - none of the entertainers would have dropped out of the convention. Gov Abbott would have been there in person. Some of the gun companies that dropped out - wouldn't have dropped out of exhibiting.

It would have been a normal NRA Convention (if you could call their conventions normal).

What would they have been talking about? What was on their agenda that they had to preempt? What other schemes would they have been devising to unleash on the American People?

Would they be talking about the latest in gun killing technology? Would it be about bigger guns; clips; faster performance? What?

Does anyone here know?

For Cars They Use Sophisticated Crash Test Dummies To Determine Effects Of A Car Crash On Humans....

Have they ever applied that technique to determine the effects of various guns and bullets on a human body?

I've heard how unrecognizable a body is after being hit by shots from certain guns and types of bullets.

I've seen posts here on DU where people have suggested that they publish the pics of these kids that have been killed in these school shootings in convincing people that certain guns and bullets would be banned once people see their results.

I don't think that it's appropriate to show those types of pics and I don't think I'd want to see them anyway.

BUT

I do think it would be appropriate if the 'crash test dummy' type of technique was applied to the effects of what guns and bullets do to a human being and then show us those results.

Does anyone know if such testing exists?

Do We Know Who - Names And Faces - The Gun Lobbyiest's Are That Walk The Halls Of Congress....

doling out money to our Congressmen and Senators - to keep guns in the forefront and out of touch to laws that would protect us from these horrendous killings?

Who are these people? Why don't we expose them and let all American's know who stands between sane gun laws and the carnage we see on a daily basis in America.

Name them. Show us what they look like. Let us get familiar with those people that don't care about these senseless killings.

They need to be exposed and shamed.

So The Repugs Must Be Happy That This Shooting Effectively Took The Abortion Issue And The....

J6 Insurrection Committee off the front page and the whole of the news.

They can at least deal with the gun issue as they have been for decades.

The other issues - not so much.
