Don't knives also kill? In fact, being stabbed is much more damaging than being shot. So why not ban knives as well when in reality they do more physical harm than guns?

For those of you who say that guns have no purpose unlike knives, how about for hunting and self-defense?

Guns and other weapons don't hurt, mindless people do.

I mean the really attempt to give heartfelt answers to questions from trolls like this one from Angry Lib "Should I move out of MY mom's Basement?
Now any one with a lick of sense knows this is just a troll trying to provoke and the best way to answer in my opinion is to call it out early but even after you point it out people waste time trying to give a response to the nonsense, FOLKS WAKE THE HECK UP, there are trolls on these boards, if it sounds ridiculous it's because it is ridiculous, move along nothing to see here

Some people say that most people are opposed to deporting illegal immigrants. So let's take a poll and see what the results are. Would you like the illegals deported or not?

What is the waiting period for the state to go after someone for not paying thousands of dollars in child support.

This person who hasn't paid child support in years, keeps filing disability... gets rejected... and files again in the state we are currently in (Indiana). In Indiana, before the child support people can do anything about the payments, one can be denied and reapply for SSI disability. Even though this person will probably never get SSI disability, she'll never have to pay child support as long as she keeps pending applications for SSI because of the loophole.

HELP!

After letting Michigan's deficit balloon to $802 million, you would think that the state's lawmakers had finally done their worst. Well, think again. In one of its most irresponsible and incompetent acts yet, the state legislature slashed $179 million of that deficit on Friday by either postponing or cutting funding to state universities and community colleges. Quite literally, it borrowed from Michigan's future.

Here is a link to the amount of job losses in Michigan due to the Governors inability to do her job:
http://www.migop.org/jobs_lost.asp

I have lived in Michigan for the last 14 years and I have never had a problem finding work.
Having worked in the auto field for over 16 years and knowing how to customize and custom paint.
It is now next to impossible for me to find a job. I have been out of work for 14 months and I am about to leave the State like many others have already done.
As a EX-UAW worker, now out of work again due to Granholm, is anyone else sick of her ??????

Q: On Americans/anti-semitism

A: "southern_pride":
Because the jew media is brainwashing our children to hate their own race and accept "multiculturalism", aka rap, crap, mexicans, etc.


And you wonder why America is so hated even if we have the greatest freedoms in the world. It is ignorant right wing garbage just like that.

I am too much of a REAL Nliberal to lowere my standards to that brand of American Xtian Naziism.

Thank you.

Blue Staters lack the fortitude to win. This isn't old fashioned Jim Crow violence that BlueStaters are used to.... Lynchings by Dems after losing the Civil War.

How do they expect to manage the eradication of 1/3 of the World population. (the effort required to win)

I think it's clear that he doesn't have the support. Iraq just killed him as a candidate. That being said, I think he has been a profile in courage. He stuck with what he believed in - put more troops in there and don't come out till you win. I tip my hat to him - some things are more important than being elected President.

Do they really believe their inflated sense of power?

In 1992 and 1994, defense corporations gave contributions of 54% and 59% of total contributions to Democrats. After the GOP revolution in 1996 that shifted to 32% Dem to 68% GOP.

You getting this yet libs?

While you think you might matter, you really don't. The Dems will just use you to get elected and throw you in the dumpster yet again.

Why not vote Republican this time around? At least you know where we stand with you.
