do or die

I lean towards a drinking copiously one....

Remember the good ole days when Trump "would grow into the job" and mainstream Republicans would act as a buffer against him flying off the reservation?

But manly teachers would just hunker down.....and slap leather.

Better yet....after arming them.....we could have a parade!

President Trump on Thursday raised the idea of awarding bonuses to some teachers who are willing to carry guns in schools. http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/375108-trump-suggests-trained-teachers-who-are-armed-could-receive-bonuses So what would a teacher get for a kill shot? Trump needs to hit the bed and his Cheetos for a while, and just shut the hell up.

MAGA

No argument, actually....

Bad hombre.

Yup, on the Alt-Right sites......you can hear these patriots prattle on..... about their great fear of being "disarmed" - leaving them at the mercy of government death squads, Black Lives Matter, Antifa, Jews and non whites of every description

Being a ancient Hebrew with probably a dusky hue.....

NRA cashing in, on their 30M investment in Trump. http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/375031-trump-praises-nra-leaders-they-love-our-country

Held off on the Disco party....for two. Doubling down on sacrifice.

To be fair....almost immediately after the shootings, Trump did reach out to the grassroots. He went around Mar-A-Lago asking members at the resort, about what should be done.

Yes, but only the "best" teachers would have these guns.......education requires a certain set of standards, you know. Meanwhile: Florida lawmakers on Tuesday passed a resolution declaring pornography a public health risk, less than an hour after they rejected a motion to consider a bill that would ban assault rifles. http://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/374816-florida-house-votes-to-declare-porn-a-public-health-risk-within-an-hour Seems there are public health risks.......and uh, public health risks. Florida is clearly a pretty enlightened place......

Props up and influence peddles tinpot dictators.......so in retrospect, perfectly logical choice for Trump's National Security Advisor.

Why, Trump's reputation being besmirched, of course......

I fail to see the levity, in such a tragic event........besides it probably not impress 35% of the population.

What a coincidence...... Alex Jones over at Infowars, has just set me straight.......Sandy Hook was a staged event.

Yup, have to remember that the Hollywood Access tape was doctored.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team is reportedly investigating whether former Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort promised a White House job to a banker in exchange for home loans. http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/374869-mueller-investigating-whether-manafort-promised-banker-a-trump ....and the heat goes on...

Haven't been on this board for a while. Need an update. Has the Prince of Vapid done anything, lately?

Well, I hid my shuttlecock.....

For all the talk of NRA money.....it is their ability to mobilize a certain voting block, that allows them to hold sway over legislators in the House and Senate. Give them credit - they have instilled quite the Pavlovian reflex, among their supporters. Any minute piece of control legislature on guns..... is immediately translated via the 2nd amendment, as big government oppression and attacks against personal liberty. The historic gun mythology - red blooded patriot, strong man, steely eyed, and quick on the draw, also hold these folks in thrall. A sort of objectified porn, if you will. Happiness is a warm gun, bang bang, shoot, shoot......

His "apology" was simply code for "crap I got caught"

Upon reflection.....was thinking that this "Arm the Teachers" idea just might be alright......as perhaps a stopgap measure. Until we can arm the bus drivers, pastors, mailmen, checkout clerks, ticket takers, sanitation engineers, box store greeters, mall Santas, zoo employees, aid workers, pageant contestants, diplomats and astronauts.
