Re: Fascism... check the boxes

You're welcome. :D I am not implying either of those. I just read his words and the first thing I thought was he has a point, and it isn't a bad point by any-means, but a point is just that a point. As an author and/or commentator you need to expand upon that as well and he didn't. He tried, I will...

Re: Nashville Christian School massacre

So let me get this straight. You wanted to find out the answer if more guns, on a state by state basis, would increase the homicide/suicide rate and decided to look at all homicides/suicides, committed by any means, and correlate that back to gun ownership. I mean you can certainly argue that premi...

No, Charlie. The legal system is indicting Trump because he committed crimes.
Then Bragg's case should be a slam dunk shouldn't it?

Nice to see some common sense these days. In principle, no COVID-19 vaccination is recommended for spring/summer 2023. Nearly everyone in Switzerland has been vaccinated and/or contracted and recovered from COVID-19. Their immune system has therefore been exposed to the coronavirus. In spring/summer...
