    somebody is going to have to explain how this member of
    the cabal formerly known as republican
    can be,
    1) anti abortion (“pro-life” as they chose to call it)
    2) anti gun control (kills people)
    3) anti healthcare for all (kills people)
    4) anti living wage (kills people)
    and so on….

    He is a great argument for an old thought that I’ve had about Cajuns there are some that aren’t worth anything except to be used as target practice meet a target

    Ok, how about we get rid of all stupid people in elected offices. Maybe, that will finally help your fix the mass shooting epidemic in the US.

    The best way to shut them down is to tell them that if they want to equate guns to cars, then first all gun owners need to take a class, get 20 hours of range time, pass a test for a license, and register their firearm yearly. I have yet to have one of them retort after that.

    Is it just me or does Kennedy whistle when he speaks…just like Herbert the Pervert from Family Guy.

    That’s not a real cop! She didn’t threaten his life, use racial slurs, or call for backup because she “feared for her life”.

    I believe Sen Kennedy hit his head in a detrimental way as a child … how else does one explain the nonsense coming out of his mouth?

    NO, we don’t have many drunk drivers anymore…it just make sense doing so, unless they live in some backwoods in some foresaken part of the country.

    Every week, Kennedy is on the news being a dumbass. But Bill Cassidy is the one the people in my state want to get rid of because he did ONE good thing.

    Gunfire deaths-roughly 40,000 with roughly 15,000 being homicides per year.
    Alcohol related deaths-roughly 88,000 with roughly *15,000 being homicides per year.
    *Alcohol related homicides includes the roughly 10,000 killed by drunk drivers, but not the roughly 1,000 drivers who got themselves killed while driving drunk.

    If everything was compared to the death toll from driving there’d be no need for murder laws.

    Does Kennedy not know what a straw man is; or does he simply not care?

    When guns are treated like cars, with registration, required safety features, licensing of drivers, periodic checks and controls, fines for improper use, and limits on use, then the problem of gun violence might start to improve.

    I wonder if the Republican is in favor of giving convicted felons there guns back. Remember they are American citizens still and the constitution give them the rights to bear arms.
