Punish the criminals
This person talking about a ban on assault weapons, I disagree with you. I have one, and I bought mine legally. I’m a good citizen. I’m a retired person. It’s nice to have one, just to practice in certain places. It’s fun to shoot off. But you moron, you must be a communist because you want to get rid of all the guns. It’s just a start to get good people in trouble. You need to punish criminals.
You need to check these things
This is for “No solutions.” Do you realize that Joe Biden had Mexico pay $1.5 billion for border security, something Trump couldn’t do? Do you realize that the inflation is because Trump couldn’t handle the pandemic and his tariffs on China backfired on us? You need to check these things before you write. I could go on, but I won’t, on what Trump has done.
Stop feeding these people
Folks in Waukegan: If you read this, stop feeding those people on the corner who refuse to get cleaned up and beg money from the citizens. You won’t be getting into heaven’s gate any sooner. They leave their garbage behind, they leave groceries carts behind and who do you think is going to pick that up? No one. So, if that’s what you want to do, then clean up after these vagrants that are on the corner.
So intolerant of ‘others’
A suburban bakery advertises a drag queen event. Personally, I don’t get the whole appeal of cross-dressing, but it is not my place to tell people how to dress, how to worship, who to love and how to identify oneself. It is nobody else’s business. People today are so intolerant of “others” that do not conform to their ideas. They lash out with violence against this bakery. It reminds me of Germany in the 1930s, and we all know how that turned out.
Off the rails
Darren Bailey is a Bone Spur train wreck waiting to go off the rails.
Tired of feeling the pain
What is wrong with this country? I’ll tell you what is wrong. You’ve got an administration that’s not thinking of the American people and how they feel. Why do we keep allowing undocumented people coming into our borders? People that are 80 years old? What contributions can they make to our country other than taking benefits for themselves and from our citizens. This 80-year-old is not going to be working and contributing to our society. I’m tired of feeling the pain, aren’t you?
All on you
While it is true that more people have died of COVID on Biden’s watch than Trump’s, that’s only because conservatives refused to take the vaccine. Instead, they put their faith in bleach, horse dewormers and conspiracies about magnetism and microchips. I could almost feel sorry for you that you need a boogeyman to explain all of your difficulties. My sports team didn’t win, Biden’s fault. Our picnic got rained, Biden’s fault. I’m a bitter angry conservative that nobody wants to be around. Wait. That’s all on you.
You are the problem
This is to the reality-challenged Trump lover. He says that the investigation of the Jan. 6 committee investigation isn’t even a fair trial. Well, that’s right, sir. It is not a trial. It is a committee investigation. You sir are a problem because you are a fact-denier and even if Bone Spur doesn’t want to call them facts, everybody knows what they are. They have people from Trump’s orbit in there. The very people that were in the room saying what happened. Those, sir, are facts and that is what this is based on. If you don’t want to believe it, that’s fine. The rest of the world can see the truth. Just because you can’t doesn’t make a difference.
