So much stupidity

Democrat Joe Biden is all for the new green deal. We are all seeing more green coming out of our wallets at the gas pump. So much stupidity coming out of this administration.

Wake up

We already have waiting periods on guns. Gun owners already have to have FOID cards, so where’s your brains at? You don’t have to register a gun; a gun is registered when you buy it. Use some common sense. Wake up.

So sorry for your existence

This is directed to the contributor of “Sick world”: You, sir or madam, are the reason we live in a sick world because you value what the gun lobby and the gun manufacturers contribute to our country more than the people who make it up. You live in fear, and you are afraid of anyone that is different from you. I am so sorry for your existence.

Parents don’t even care

I read this message from Charles Selle that the government can’t keep children safe by itself. That is so true. I see these kids playing these games, and their parents not even paying attention. With this computer stuff and these games that these kids play, like my own grandkids. I’ve caught them playing these games. I mean, it’s terrible. It’s not up to the police to parent the kids. The police are there to protect the people from criminals, and that’s hard to do when the parents don’t even care.

Look at what you’ve got to show

Remember when Waukegan in the ’50s and ’60s was a big deal? Waukegan was a big deal back then, and you imbeciles on the council and the mayors have screwed it up. This is what you got today. It’s such a shame. Now you’ve got a lot of money that’s going to come from the casino, and I’m not too sure you got the brains to fix it unless somehow or another you change your form of government, get an accountant and get an administrator in there to get the grants and bring back Waukegan to what it used to be. But I’m not too sure you guys got the guts to do it because that council lady said we had this form of government for 150 years. Yes, and look what you’ve got to show for it.

Not the U.S. anymore

Everybody talks about the gun laws, and this and that. There should be only one set of gun laws. One. You don’t get a gun unless you have a FOID card and if you kill somebody you get the death penalty, pure and simple. We are not the United States anymore. Every state is considered their own country because you’ve got some idiot governors doing what they want. Driving laws should be the same, gun laws should be the same and you should have a background check.

Cannot be trusted

Liz Cheney, you’re not a Republican. You’re a wolf in sheep’s clothing. You have a vendetta against your own people, the Republican Party. This woman cannot be trusted with either party.

Cannot wait

I for one cannot wait until the MAGA King replaces the Mega Disappointment.
