How do you police,that? Who has the manpower to send an officer to every house with an AR15 to see how it’s being stored. You can’t do that just once. You would have to regularly check that. Does it violate a family’s rights to have an office come inside their home on a regular basis? Then you are also removing all guns from homes with persons who have mental health issues living there. Aside from the administrative burde, the manpower required would be off the charts.
Seems like a lot of infringing to me.
We are probably all for democrats willingly turning in their guns.
I know you're being facetious but Biden did get over 40% of white non-evangelical Christians. White evangelicals though? 15%. Illustrates how stark the divide is. Especially since he won large majorities among every other religious and racial minority.
It was an event with high schoolers and in no world is provocative lap dancing family friendly. Regardless. What is “beneficial” about that particular occurrence?
The trans community wasn’t “under attack” until they started forcing their wares on people’s children and everyone else demanding the world enable their delusions.
As I said it wasn't advertised as family friendly. No High School group was involved. if High Schoolers attended they did so of their own accord on their parents' recognizance. What is wrong with that?
So let me get this straight..... Republicans are passing laws all across red state America in the name of "protecting the children".
Well let’s see the book is “Red Riding Hood” which we do not have a problem with unlike books title “Daniel licks Keith’s crotch for the first time”.
Yea. Report that the reason behind the Biden visit to Canada was to get them to put boots on the ground because they don't want the political backlash of fighting there and sending extra troops to Europe.
So if Pub and Dem just flipped then why is the south less racist now than it was before the flip? How much does that make sense? LOL.
Hey look, billboards in the South calling MLK a communist during the civil rights era. I wonder why that looks familiar? Oh yeah, conservative media today call democrats or any "domestic enemies" communists.
Migration
People tend to stay close to where they are born, meaning their migration patterns tend to be localized to the area or region of their birth. I.e. a person born in Alabama will most likely stay there and if they migrate out it'll be to a nearby state.
This was even truer 100-150 years ago.
In other words, the family that sprung from those Democrats of the 1860s, for the most part, still reside in the South. Who do they vote for? Republicans.
The Typical American Lives Only 18 Miles From Mom (Published 2015)
The popular perception of Americans is that they are independent and rootless, but the reality is that people tend not to move very far from their parents.www.nytimes.com
Hey look, the electoral college map of 1860. Crazy how the democrats are the southern party and the Republicans are the northern party.
It's kind of like the Republicans were the liberal party of that age and Democrats were the Conservatives. I.E. y'all Republicans of today would be Democrats in 1860.
I mean you see Confederate flags flying in Charlottesville, at the Capitol or where any far right militia groups gather. Y'all literally call that flag your southern heritage and are against the tearing down of Confederate statues, statues put up decades after the Civil War in the era of Jim Crow to instill fear into African Americans.
Shoot, y'all are the same people against the teaching of history as it should be taught, the good and bad.
Luke 14:1-6 - One Sabbath, when Jesus went to eat in the house of a prominent Pharisee, he was being carefully watched. 2 There in front of him was a man suffering from abnormal swelling of his body. 3 Jesus asked the Pharisees and experts in the law, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?” 4 But they remained silent. So taking hold of the man, he healed him and sent him on his way. 5 Then he asked them, “If one of you has a child or an ox that falls into a well on the Sabbath day, will you not immediately pull it out?” 6 And they had nothing to say.
And that is why Ron is tanking in the polls. He went from dead even or a little ahead of Trump to trailing by 10 pretty quick. We are done with the Bush's. DONE!!!
So do you think that the gay people in "Gays against groomers" are homophobic and hate gays? That would be really weird. Stop sexualizing kids my man. You'll do better in jail without that on you rap sheet.You guys attack the LGBT community all the time on this board. Conservative media vilifies them all the time. Calling the entire group "groomers" is literally attacking them.
Clarence Thomas talking about making gay marriage illegal is attacking rights of that community.
Florida and their attacks on the community but also minorities in general with their attacks on diversity programs.
As for kids "mutilating" their bodies, this is another scare tactic by the right. Taking puberty blockers is not "castration" as people here like to claim.
If an adolescent child decides to stop taking GnRH analogues, puberty will resume and the normal progression of the physical and emotional changes of puberty will continue

As for the athletic argument the number is so small it doesn't make sense to waste resources trying to make bills that attack trans people.
Think about it, trans make up under 1% of the population. Say half of that are men transitioning to women. Of that number how many played sports? You can break it down even more and really it gets to the point where the number you come up with is so small that it becomes pointless.
An example, Wyoming has 500k ish people, there's one trans high school athlete in the state and yet the state government is creating laws to attack trans people. They're basically attacking this one kid who literally just wants to play sports.
Lastly, drag shows. There's nothing inherently wrong with drag its only when it's done in a sexualized nature that it should be in a private setting away from kids.
Comedic drag has been a thing for centuries if not millenia and banning that from the public seems like another waste of resources.
Your last point about flavor of the month. My issue is when I see something that comes across as bigoted I call it out. It's conservative media that has these stories blaring from high heaven about LGBT, wokeness, etc. They're the ones keeping it as the flavor of the month, not democrats.
They shout it and y'all repeat the talking points. I say this because the phrase "groomer" just started appearing in this thread just a few years ago. LGBT have been around forever but only recently did conservative media feel like they needed another boogeyman.
Blair White did an interview with a trans female that regretted her choice at the age of 20. She tried to be a boy for 6 years and when she went back she did not go through puberty. She will never have children and her body is forever changed from the hormones and she has no breast. Its only temporary if you stop taking it before your biological clock stops its puberty countdown.Bud, blockers pause puberty. That Mayo article I linked literally says this and points out its reversible.
If that 10 year old takes blockers because they think they're a woman and they change their mind at 18 then quitting blockers will have them go through puberty in their born sex.
You say mutilation but like I said earlier surgery should not occur until one is an adult.
You need to read this and stop believing the crap you see in this bubble.

To be fair though... She has jumped to the head of the world wide environmental church so that is is worth a theology degree.
Insanity is passing sweeping legislation targeting the 80 trans kids in Ky, mandating that daughters give birth to their daddy's baby, pulling books about racism off library shelves,and stopping dudes in dresses from dancing in restaurants......
Where is the tape for the call? If they taped Trump while he was in DC then whoever taped it committed a felony. Politicians made sure to protect themselves from being taped saying incriminating things decades ago. That is a whole lot of quote marks like its from a tape. Surely they wouldn't just attribute 100% certainty to phone call they didn't hear...Here is an interest article of how Trump treated Kemp during COVID. Trump demanded he shut down the state and Kemp did not agree. No wonder Trump lost Georgia and will never win it again. Not with Kemp governor. Kemp should be given a medal for courage.
Age. Younger generations coming up are less bound by the racist conventions of the past. The old people who were racist to begin with are still around but dwindling. Hence slowly it moves in that direction, even among the racists.
To borrow one of your favorite phrases, "Fight fire with fire." Right?I read leftist twitter.
No, they have no clue how disjointed from reality they've become. Some of the jukn I've read lately is particularly disturbing, this manifesto is going to be something if/when it gets released.
One should distance themselves from people like this, the whole gamut of the leftist posters here likewise. You dont want these people in your lives in any capacity.
Doesn't seem like a group to particularly be afraid of, does it? Mighty Americans with their ARs are scared of nerds concerned about disabled access. 🤣
If dems gave a shi+ about protecting kids they would end abortion today. It is not about protecting kids and it never was.
