We'd better never hear anything more about how sports teams should "require" their players to stand for the National Anthem.

Does this also go for the military, and all of the vaccinations they are required to have? ..Vaccinations that kids are required to have to attend public school? Shall we just drop ALL of the mandates and become a half-vaxxed nation?

"IT'S NOT FASCISM...WHEN WE DO IT"

So. Are you admitting then that it's fascism when YOU do it?

We already have guns that we already know how to use. We just think some guns should be much harder to get.

Same. But I seriously doubt if we're representative of a large cross section of liberals. And the guns that you would like to be harder to acquire...? There are way too many in circulation already to put that genie back in the bottle.

I think that ship has sailed. Instead of banning guns, liberals had better start buying them and practicing.

I don't blame you. But I would only say: as goes America so goes the rest of the world.

Biden's first "official act" since this ruling should be to revise the number of justices on the Supreme Court and impose term limits upon all of them. His second act should be to eliminate the Electoral College, as it has become obsolete.

Currently, EV's that can be charged at home make sense as daily commuter vehicles, for around town. They still seem highly inconvenient for road trips further than a couple hundred mile. Hybrids make much more sense for longer trips.

but only 0.7 in 10 buy them.

Because only 7 percent can actually afford them.

We're all going to die of something. For me, the benefits I think I get from cannabis outweigh the possible problems. There are many ailments I would rather treat with cannabis than pharmaceuticals.

Fat from munchies? Stereotype much? Seems like his own laziness. I know many cannabis users who are very active and in excellent shape.

I'd rather give the money to the shelter or food bank. Around here, the guy standing on a street corner with a sign is often a scammer who has someplace to go home to, probably even a car down the street. Or, even if they are homeless, a direct cash contribution to these people has the best chance of supporting a drug dealer or liquor store.

I will at times give these people food. Their reaction can be quite telling. The ones with real financial hardship are typically grateful.

how about I take care of the camps and work projects and you pitch in and offer a hand with the mentals.

Mental illness and drug addiction are a huge problem. Years ago the country had treatment facilities available to almost everyone. Then conservatives decided they shouldn't have to pay for that.

Pinky and the brain?
Is that a reference to Pinky Tuscadero?

Biden isn't a 34 time felon, sexual predator, grifter or insurrectionist. And he'll hire competent and reasonably honest people to work within his administration. That's good enough to vote for Biden over Trump.

Kevin Smith has had a number of reasons to be concerned about his health.

If it's the smell that bothers them, then just ban it in the cities. Rural Americans live with the smell of actual skunks, along with a number of other "smells of nature", all the time.

I'd suspect they're just grasping at reasons to protect other industries who lobby heavily against cannabis. Pharma and cotton come to mind.

This isn't really a fair discussion without going into the economy Trump inherited from Obama, which was also fantastic. Trump had to do very little for that to continue. And he should get very little credit as it did continue.

There are photos of Trump getting pretty pervey with Ivanka. And quotes about how he'd date her. I'd call that more damning than a little girls diary. Just saying....

I guess Biden should do these things mid afternoon... before bed time.

Also the same climate change that is creating circumstances that push refugees all over the world.

As bad as Biden looked last night, I do not think what we're witnessing is dementia as the CONnies want to convey. I'm not a medical expert. But having been around a number of the Parkinson's afflicted, I think Biden is suffering signs and symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's is not often associated with cognitive decline. Although, Parkinson's could certainly compound the speech impediment that the President has already had for most of his life. Parkinson's and fatigue would easily explain his performance last night

No matter what he was suffering last night, Joe Biden still has far better cognitive ability and integrity than Trump, who DOES show genuine signs of dementia. I also trust that Joe Biden will employ far better people, people with much more integrity, to manage this nation. There is already a stark difference in ethics and morals between the cabinets and staff of these two candidates. Just in sheer volume of indictments and convictions the Democrats win that contest, hands down.

I wish Joe had kept his word to be a one term President. Problems do to his age may very well cost our nation its democracy. I hope the populace can see past Joe's problems for the sake of the country. But alas, especially on the right, we now suffer a nation of low information and disingenuous voters.

The favoritism towards corporations by the conservatives on this SCOTUS is completely shameless.

In case anyone is interested in more information about which mosquitos carry the most common mosquito-borne diseases:

I'd trust Hamas more than the IOF.

They are both terrorist organizations. The only major difference... the Israelis are way better funded and are given legitimacy by the backing western governments.
