Rolls of these coins will be used to -------- detainees in ICE custody.

I have often stated, illegal aliens should leave the Country.
But I have always added the caveat of the effect that upon the economy.
So, maybe, Spain has come to a similar determination?

This is what Reagan did in the 80s. Amnesty for a few million undocumented people here with no criminal record.

Republicans would shoot Reagan down like a rabid dog if he did that today.

"Fact is, if you're being honest, Democratic policies all favor corporations and capitalism."

The economy itself does better when Democrats are in the White House.
Could there be a better endorsement of Capitalism?

But they'll never accept the economy does better under Democrats.
That would be like accepting a black man for their family doctor.

The fundamental challenge in trying to have a discussion with these hidebound ideologues is this:
"You Cannot Reason People Out of Something They Were Not Reasoned Into"

They never reasoned themselves into the belief that Republicans are better on the economy.
They just grew up hearing it and ended up believing it.
It's like someone who goes to church and says their prayers but has no concept of what the hell a peroneal connection to Jesus could possibly mean, but they just go along with it because that's what everybody else does and they see what happens to people who ask too many questions.

Some of them like KWRX25 here occasionally show sparks of intellectual curiosity. So I try to keep them on the line.

you pushed back about the left NOT moving.

Because you don't have any examples, and you still don't.

I've never really been referring to the politicians or the parties but the public that identifies as their basis.

Okay. This time it's so vague it's pointless to ask for evidence.

Maybe by moving left, you mean gay people feel empowered to be openly gay in high school nowadays, unlike when we were in high school.
Or maybe you mean there's more black and brown people in your neighborhood than there used to be.
Seems like you're the kind of person who would look at all of these things and blame liberals.
Blame, because you think it's bad.

"Hopefully the feds charge him."

Why would the Feds charge him when he's carrying out the Federal agenda?

"I am sure this is the type of mental stability is who Lumpers want with guns "

You spelled Republicans wrong, but aside from that I'd say you have a valid point.

"Pretti was not a peaceful protester."

How'd he compare to J6?

Point is, he wasn't even a protester when he got shot.
He was an innocent bystander.

"Illegal aliens took the majority of hooker jobs from the black women, that caused high unemployment."

^
So you're saying Trump isn't deporting the illegal alien hookers, like his own wife.

I'm not sure what kind of work the word "regulation" is doing in that statement...

The Gun That Won The West didn't win because it's such an effective tool in the fields of bureaucracy and legislation.

"Its requirements are for regulations contemporaneous with the drafting of the Constitution or earlier, ie English Common Law."

See, I wouldn't really mind this, if those laws were matched to firearms contemporary to their period...

Wanna open carry a Musket? Okay. You'll get off one shot before the crowd beats you to death, and good luck concealing it.

Wanna open carry an AR-15? Not a sensible gun regulation.

"Because Nunn is too late historically for the Bruen test."

How can it be too late, when Nunn is the first time the Second Amendment was tested?

"Melanoma Fumes As Pretti Execution Upstages Her Movie"

People who have seen both are saying the point blank execution of a civilian was much easier to watch.

"Looking back, it was Springsteen's long live concerts that really excited his growing fan base."

Valid point. As shows go, he's James Brown for white people.

Huh. I figured this was more of a techno fetish for you, not the other option.

Perhaps I was negligent in discharging my neurons.

Has RFK Jr. offered to pee in South Carolina's mouth yet?

You think posting on this forum holds Republicans accountable.

I think individuals hold themselves accountable.
Or don't.
Your call, tootsie.

"The Nunn court ruled that while the legislature could prohibit the concealed carry of weapons, it could not prohibit the open carry of weapons."

Curious how the Bruen standard feels about that. Because it's not legal for any state to outright deny concealed carry in 2026.

"For all 47 (get it, after Pres#47) days of 'training' they get,"

We have a cop of 37 years who believes 47 days of ICE training makes them professionals of impeccable character.

I'm not kidding.

Remember when you pretended to be a Democrat for a few weeks?

Yeah. Accountability.

I don't much care for RHCP overall but John Frusciante really carries that album.

"BJ projecting about what he thinks Springsteen 'would be doing'"

This is a weird avoidance strategy thing that some people do. MadBomber does it too.
They always invoke hypotheticals instead of simply addressing reality.

Sounds like fun, where do I get in line.

The fact our President incites hatred towards Rep Omar on a seemingly daily basis is why that's such a bad comparison.

"That was something that got the lefties giddy and jocular. "

It was the pathetic attempt by the impotent Trump administration to win what should have been an easy case that had people laughing.

You laughed too.

"and nobody here at the White House, including the president of the United States, wants to see Americans hurt or killed "

"Americans hurt or killed"

But it's not so bad if immigrants get hurt and killed.

If you can't hear that dog whistle, your name just might be Eberly.
