Why not let the public decide in November? According to you guys, the Dems have screwed over a good number of Americans with this move, so by that logic those Americans will let their opinions be heard in the upcoming vote. This should be good news for conservatives! Rejoice!

Logically yes. However, I do not see Trump winning in Nov. even if Biden stays in the race. Election integrity is gone. Just too many doors open for fraud. In fact, I will go so far as to say unless the voting process changes there will never be a Republican in the White House again.

The interesting part is the Democrat voters, by and large, just go along with whatever their party instructs them to. A lot like the Cult of Trump voters.

Now it's the Republicans who have the old man candidate, one who is slipping and has trouble speaking and finishing a thought. I tried to watch Trump's Nom speech, good lord, that man has a rare talent to blather.

The real stakes are one candidate will allow open borders and one promises to enact the greatest deportation action since Eisenhower. I know which one I will be voting for. If I wanted to live in South America/Mexico, I would emigrate.

That's an understatement. He would have kept going if the network would permit it.

My two Swiss army pocket knives, have blade lengths of 6.5cm. They are always on my belt. I have no intention to comply with this idiots' law. I dont see it as "being armed", the blade also cannot be arrested, Swiss army pocket knives for me simply are small toolboxes.

They now even sell small pocket knives with the pointed tip broken off. They look like huge screw drivers, because a screw driver is harmless and cannot be used to injure or kill.

Originally the authors of that law wanted the ban from blade length of 4 cm on.

Enjoy your gun license. Sooner or later they will take it away from you again. Just wait and see. They cant get the cirminals, for many reasons, and they also do not want to go after them. Thats why they go after guys like you. You are the problenm, you see, not the criminals. The criminals are just victims of circumstances.

It is truly astonishing that 2 months ago Harris was seen as a substantial liability for Biden's reelection. She is now the "anointed one". Let's watch and listen to the laundry list of her political talent. Her being to the border and working tirelessly finding solutions and corrective actions.

I dont have the license yet. It will take some time and work to prepare for exams. But the next year the license will be harder to obtain.
Hope they will not be able to take them away, because we added right for defense into our constitution:

“The right to defend one's own life or the life of another person with a weapon is guaranteed under the conditions laid down by law.”

Yes, because of EU.

You are right - EU doesnt protect its borders which is increasing the criminality and they would like to disarm legal gun owners in this situation. Which is totally crazy.
The situation in Germany is very bad and I dont want to see my country in the same situation. I read the news about criminality there. According the statistics there are 2 gangrapes daily in Germany. Insane. How could they let those illegal migrants in and let them make those horrible crimes on own citizens?

The correct term are I think "cultural enrichment", "open society" and "cultural diversity".

Some days ago ministries in Berlin were all flagged in rainbow flags, replacing the black-red-gold-with-eagle's-head in it, which is the official seal of the federal republic.

Its all turning - no, its all being turned into a nuthouse.



The destruction of all social and cultural certainties and historically grown cultural identity is the desired goal. All social relations founded on "family", "mother-father-children" and "man and woman" should be destroyed so that the - left-extremist - state can take their place as the only source of identity - dependency. Thats why they also want to control children relations to their parents from as young on as possible. At best from before the age of one year of age.


Destroying the social order and biological source of identity-definition, that is what they want.

yeah, woke agenda - we have similar people in our government too. There are problems in our country to be solved but they instead waste time with woke stupidities and they follow orders from EU.
I am glad I did not vote them, I didnt trust them.

That is an unsupported opinion disproven by over sixty lawsuits, etc. The real voter fraud in 2020 was seeking to replace the electorate vote with fraudulent certificates.

Anyway, I would suggest the reason the Trumpist GOP is a losing brand is it's not in tune with the majority of US citizens. It's backwards thinking trying to force an American mythology down the throats of a majority that don't buy into it.

Also, the GOP has proven by the current Congress that it can't govern, that it is broken into infighting factions, that it can never admit it's wrong about anything, can never compromise and will just keep steaming into the iceberg.

But the Trumpist thinking was in tune in 2017? What happened? Was Democracy taken away? A war started? Was the economy good? How was the borders looking? It was not backwards thinking then? Who decided it is backwards thinking now?

I may be confused with the context when you refer to screwdrivers being unable injure or kill but believe me, screwdrivers can be used as deadly weapons.

Sadly I recall the time a colleague of mine was stabbed by one causing him to lose said eye.
