War on Drugs, War on Poverty, War on Terror, etc...

It was to fill privatized prisons when they concocted that billion dollar idea and joined ALEC.

i have the same view on the 2nd as if you do not know how to properly use, operate and secure a weapon you should not be able to own one. AKA darwin/God will work it out just fine in the end. we need not more regulations on any of it is all i am saying. Human Much?

I guess your new Jesus I'll take away all the pain make everything right in the world.

Two of those have led to terrible outcomes in the American system.

They will *always* exist in one form or another

War on terror? Everyone submitted their rights for 'security'.

Like the government was some sort of bloody mob boss.

It is insane think there are any differences between Democrats or Republicans

Both are owned and operated by wealthy business interest

I always refer to the political parties as different tenatacles on the same beast

Why is there not the will to enforce anti trust laws currently on the books

give me my 2nd i can take care of my own Security fine "GET OFF MY LAWN!"

For sure, I'm all for people to have access to their 2nd amendment rights.

Which is also another reason I fucking despise the war on drugs.

Gun laws *only* affect the Law abiding, *never* the criminal

Great, so the government gets to choose who does and doesn't have rights.

Platitudes

Are not action

For whatever reason.

Why should prior drug offenders have their rights revoked?

Even a reshaping of the rhetoric better than

Because they're 'criminals' in your mind?

Ruin their lives and make sure that they'll never become productive members of society

yea i thought the Linwood rally was way cringe myself in GA but i do respect his right to speak about it. i do not think most trump rally's are like that again just IMO

The American concept from its inception is that Rights are inherited by their Creator (whichever Creator they may believe in) and not from man and thus, What the Creator has bequeathed, no man may revoke.

@ShittyKitty Yeah, never said he should be deplatformed.

@Bey Well unfortunately the government can just take them away!

at will.

Lol yup. Can and do.

Is prohibition of drugs one of the Ten Commandments

I don't seem to remember it

Unfortunately, they do revokes one's Rights and the People have allowed it.

Just like they allowed the PATRIOT act.

Just like civil asset forfeiture

Just like trial by jury

Effectively

If the government can just take your rights basically at-will.

Are they really rights?

What percentage of cases that your firm handles actually go to a trial and are not plea bargained

Or are they a privilege?
