Sadly true
Why do you think so many are misguided and weak of mind?
partially due to lack of parenting, no doubt
but I feel like even many with two parents are not being parented. too many progressives who think "its good for kids to experiment" allowing their children to pursue dangerous paths has ruined too many lives.
And thats why despite this generation being ruined, they will serve as a perfect example as to how not to raise your children
It's kind of helped us a bit
People without that kind of guidence either get things right or wrong.
They learn things first hand, they get stuck in the mud.
That's why some are saying Gen Z is one of the more conservative generations.
I think even Gen Z blacks, which I think have an over 70% single parent situation are saying that they have, or are optimistic in finding, a home in the republican party.
Depends on the state, state laws and the officers. I know a great many LEOs (own a gun range with several officers that caters to law enforcement) from Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma. I've had this discussion with dozens of officers at every level, local state and even federal. So far I haven't found a single officer that would enforce any kind of gun confiscation,but then most of the folks I deal with are solidly pro-gun. Very few would enforce most of the gun control laws being promoted by the left. There have been a couple of officers who have moved away from the street and into the politics of department management who have made statements about "if it's the law we enforce the law". When pushed though they waffle on being the guy knocking on MY door to ask for MY firearms. They are only ok with it if they can send someone else to to the dirty work. That is the same reason these coward politicians are ok with making such laws, they are never the ones having to enforce such illegal laws.
In Texas, Law Enforcement at nearly every level takes an oath to "preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution and laws
of the United States". That oath, in Texas, will prohibit LEO's from executing state laws that violate the clear and precise language of the Constitution of the United States, and will make that officer criminally and civilly liable for his actions in that regard.
++++ Universal Background Checks – Just how will that be implemented?? I’m at an estate sale in Pandale Texas on a Sunday afternoon and the guy has an old Mossberg .410 shotgun for $150. How do we get a background check on that sale, and how much will it cost?? ... and what prevents us from saying screw ‘em and make the deal anyway?? We could NEVER be prosecuted for the crime. No one knows who owns that firearm (or any other firearm), they have no way to prove any law was violated. In order to enforce a universal background check, law enforcement MUST KNOW who owns EVERY firearm in the nation. That will REQUIRE them to search every square inch of every home, business and vehicle of every citizen in the country (a violation of the Fourth Amendment). That law is merely a facade to make the leftists believe "something is being done".
I wonder how many people would support universal background checks if the question was posed like this: ""Do you support universal background checks which will require the repeal of the Fourth Amendment and allow the federal government to search EVERY home, business, building, vehicle, safety deposit box of EVERY person in the country at any time they wished??”"
YES we have too much gun violence in this country, but it has been DECREASING since the mid 80’s such that the gun crime rate now is HALF of what it was in the mid 80’s. Panic mongering in the media and ill-informed articles have the sheeple believing that the gun crime rate is soaring exponentially higher every year, when the FACTS show quite the opposite.
YES there is way too much gun violence in this country. Placing more laws on the backs of people who are NOT committing those crimes will do NOTHING to change that level of violence. According to the FBI website, over half of ALL gun violence is gang/drug related. Over 90% of all “children” (under 18) who are victims of gun violence is gang/drug related. We don’t have a gun problem we have a gang problem. Remove gang/drug violence from the stats, and this nation has a comparable gun crime rate with the UK.
Thank you, Bar. I appreciate your input and you really bring a lot to this conversation.
I guess in terms of my question, it's a sort of mutual respect. Like, being incredibly thankful for the hard work officers do in this country and the respect from the police of your constitutionally protected rights.
But seriously, you bring up a lot of good points, thank you for chiming in.
ya man. she was a good dog. 😦
also what's with the paragraphs of text, too early for this much reading
I get up at like 2
better yet, we have a population capable of defending itself in times of crisis when the police can't do their jobs effectively
i dont know how to get my thoughts out in a concise manner. :/
lol you're good I'm just joking
ik xD
I finally finished the paper i was doing on gun control
it comes up to around 6 pages, 7 including the Bibliography

The Japanese: "What's that whirring sound?"
I bet its great! care to share it? if not, I understand.
im gonna be honest im not that confident with my writing skills
They’ll investigate that but not political corruption.
eh, no problem spicy. neither am i. I really dont like sharing my essays with people either, so its cool. :)
I was always told by my English professors that I was too short so I kept trying to make them shorter while saying the same thing
yes samee. It was fun at private school, b/c they assigned us 2000 word essays. made it super easy for me, but when I switched to public school, my teachers said "i only have time to grade a 600 word essay, and know i probably wont even read more than the first paragraph." :\
I'd like to read it, just to see if you hit the same points I've thought about.
