    Australia projects its own deep-seated anxieties in a different fashion than America, and it’s response to COVID is a reflection of this.

    Correction - anytime a republican points out a reality, some kook accuses the republican of being an 1860's democrat that fought to preserve his right to own African humans like they were livestock.

    Republicans fought to END slavery - not the other way round.

    I support the removal of the racist Confederate statues, I have no clue if you do or not

    all I said is it was southern conservatives back then, which is true, thus not sure why your reply?

    It was democrats that started a war (started killing people) to preserve their Right to own African humans like they were barnyard livestock - not Republicans.

    Whether you, or they, called themselves conservatives or something else, ignores the far more disgusting historical fact in favor of some irrelevant label that is designed to cover-up the truth.

    I supposed that next you're going to tell me that Lincoln supported LGBT rights?

    I don’t plan on doing anything, the law is typically enforced only when an incident occurs.
    Often known as CAP laws — already implemented in 14 states.

    again, how will it be enforced? Do you support door-knock checks without cause? What would be cause to check on my guns?

    My guns have never been violent. My guns have never assaulted anyone.

    Religious, conservative southerners belonging to the Democratic party at the time.
    That you ignore geography, beliefs and ideology to focus on a party title that is no way similar to how it was shows the real dismantling of historical fact.

    You would be charged should a child ever obtain one of your non-violent guns and harm themselves or another person. Police do not need a ‘door-knock check’ when there is a dead child in the bedroom due to a gunshot wound. I support making those penalties much more severe and universal.

    That you ignore that they were, in fact, democrats, that were obviously NOT faithful to the Christianity you are compelled to disparage, to cover up the truth, shows the real dismantling and re-writing of historical fact.

    I literally said they were Democrats in my post. Reading comprehension

    Also you do not get to dictate what is faithful religious practice.
    These people used religious belief to justify their conservative ideology and were primarily based in the south. That is wholly represented by one political party today.

    So your argument is, now, that Christian Americans today, want to bring slavery back? Do you see where you are going with this? It is an adolescent re-write of history to cover up horrible sins on the behalf of the democrat party, and shift the blame onto people you dislike.

    Let me understand - democrats, pretended to be northern republicans, to fight republicans, that were pretending to be democrats so they could continue to own African humans like they were mules?

    Cognitive dissonance much?
    You want to blame the democratic party but not religious Southern conservatives…

    I see you have also jumped in with strawman fallacies

    Fascinating

    how do you feel about holding people accountable for having sub-par tires, bad brakes or a poorly running engine and their vehicle is involved in an accident?

    There are many states that do not have vehicle inspections. Since driving IS NOT a right protected under the Constitution unlike guns, maybe go after that first?

    Or, is this just about a protected right that gets under your skin for what ever reason?

    Tread carefully because you are the one pushing the slippery slope. Democrat voters scare the bejeezus out of me with how much power they want to give to incompetent politicians

    So if a few of those folks were Muslim democrats, then Islam/Muslims were responsible for American slavery too - but not democrats?

    This must be quantum debating?

    Again — it is already law in 14 states including several very red ones. The USSC has already ruled there are limitations to constitutional rights.

    Democrat party history

    deny voting to women
    leper colonies
    internment camps
    Jim Crow
    slavery
    killing of unborn babies

    the Democrat party is rich in evil things.

    Gotta love cnn. Dozens unde 10 killed in Detroit this year. 4 shot in one week. And not a peep from cnn.
    Guess the 2 y/o killed didn’t fit the cnn narrative? Don’t recall seeing the posters thread on that either.

    care to address the slippery slope? Is your goal to reduce deaths? If yes, why not focus on heart disease which kills more folks?

    Or, is your goal to target guns for some reason only known to you?

    Doubling down with more strawmen isn’t a good debate strategy.

    I simply acknowledged there were four primary characteristics of these type of individuals, you would prefer three of them are ignored. Facts seem to have upset you.
