People say "flipflop" like it's a single word.

Myself, I prefer to distinguish between flips and flops.

I like flips.

I don't like flops.

There's a huge difference between the two.

Which do you prefer?

"the simplicity of PLCAA"

January 17, 2016

I feel good going into this debate.

Now that all Democrats are united on repealing the PCLAA, Bernie has shown that he can listen to the American people, and has the flexibility to be President.

Go Bernie!

Is that the NRA I see there under that bus?

Thank you, Martin, for your leadership in uniting ALL Democrats against the PLCAA!

This never would have happened without your voice and your leadership.

Yours is truly a voice that should never be silenced.

Please stay in this race till the very end, and raise your voice loudly!

YES!!!!! Bernie supports repeal of PLCAA!!!!!! Fuck the NRA!!!!!!

Democratic Sen. Bernie Sanders is announcing his support for legislation that would reverse a 2005 law granting gun manufacturers legal immunity that he once supported

CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — On the eve of the next Democratic debate, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders announced his support for legislation that would reverse a 2005 law granting gun manufacturers legal immunity that he once supported.

Sanders' changed position came in a statement issued after days of attacks from rival Hillary Clinton, who had attempted to use his previous vote to undercut his liberal image.

The two candidates, along with former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, will meet Sunday for the last debate before voting begins in the Iowa caucuses — a match-up that's expected to be far more contentious than their previous three forums.

The debate was scheduled to take place just blocks from the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, where nine parishioners were killed in a mass shooting last summer. Gun control has emerged as a central theme in the race, with Clinton citing it as one of the major differences between the candidates.

Should pacifists be imprisoned? Should we bring back the Draft?

This weekend, as we honor a great American Pacifist, it seems like a good time to ask whether or not Pacifists are sufficiently patriotic to be allowed to walk the streets freely.

There are some calling for a draft, so that Pacifists and others opposed to war can be imprisoned as traitors.
