  1. No, the laws do not deter them significantly. Everyone who commits those crimes believes they can get away with it. Criminals simply get smarter. Based on your belief stated above, do you believe that there should be no laws against murder, rape, drunk driving, child abuse, terrorism and fraud because those laws are as ineffective as you claim? IMO, the laws provide a reasoned path for punishment not so much for effective deterrence. One way to effectively deter habitual drunk drivers is to impound their vehicles. Force them to find rides if they have jobs to go to. I'd institute this after the 2nd DUI.
  2. Hillary Clinton needs to STFU. She's the wrong person to be blasting Trump on his Weinstein-like sexual improprieties. Complete and total hypocrite. Plenty of women accused her hubby Bill of the same things, and she herself helped railroad them to protect him. Man, what a buttsore little bitch she is.
  3. There is another amputee skydiver in Texas (mx757 on here) who is a left arm amputee. There have been at least 20 amputees jumping at one time or another across the US. So, no reason you can't do it. Spaceland in Houston is a good place to start.
  4. Several women have accused him of rape as well. Of course his lawyer denies those accusations. He's already had one lawyer quit on him. And he's been fired from his own company. Basically, his life is in the shitter now. You reap what you sow.
  5. In 2015, 10,265 people died in alcohol-impaired driving crashes https://www.cdc.gov/motorvehiclesafety/impaired_driving/impaired-drv_factsheet.html 33,636 deaths due to "injury by firearms"(2013) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_violence_in_the_United_States DUI deaths are usually not intentional events. Vr. gun use where a few hundred may be accidental. You should fact check. How about total deaths from all vehicular accidents? I'm sure that number comes close or beats total deaths from firearms.
  6. 15 yard penalty and loss of down? Who knows what the NFL will do, but the Dallas Cowboys already have their own rule. Kneel and you don't play.

  8. I could hazard a guess and say about 250-300 wounded by gunfire, and the rest injured from being trampled on trying to flee. But I'll defer to the sheriff to make the final tally.
  9. Mandatory licensing with psychological screening as a component, as is common in many countries. You finished yet? I don't think that would have stopped Paddock. He was about as vanilla as they come, no police record, nothing.
  10. There are some really fine people on both sides. Wouldn't surprise me if the shooter was an Antifa sympathizer. Tell me... What kind of demographic loves country music? Mostly white conservative rural Republicans. What we KNOW is that he was an older white rural male from Mequite, NV who had no political affiliations according to his brother. All else in your post is pure speculation and wishful thinking. There are pics of him at Trump/KKK/Nazi protests already out. Try again. Take those blinders off. You're not a horse.
  11. Which is why I'm leaning to the thought that he was an Antifa sympathizer/Trump hater. Same thing with the DC baseball game shooter. You don't have to be a white conservative republican to amass a bunch of guns.
  12. Interesting history of the shooter's father... No bearing on why the shooter did what he did with no prior criminal record himself... http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/breakingnews/las-vegas-shooters-father-bingo-bruce-lived-colorful-life-of-crime-and-deception/ar-AAsNIFW?li=BBnbkly

  14. Dude was shooting from a 30something floor hotel room with a fully automatic rifle. I'd think trying to shoot him with a handgun while on the ground would be pretty difficult.
  15. Yeah, none of them want to give up any of their territory for Kurdistan. So there's the rub. I'm for the Kurds having their own country.
  16. Or you realize you're a significant public figure with a huge platform, and you use that to highlight something wrong with society. I'm pretty solidly in favour of that. And their employers seem to be for the most part too. Only as long as the employers are on board with it.
  17. I think the #Takeaknee started with Tonya Harding... Just saying...
  18. China detests Kim Jong Un, but they don't want him removed from power. Kim Jong Un hates the Chinese for even going along with the UN resolutions against him and North Korea. So there's that.
  19. Simple fix, require a reputable doctor's note with a verifiable phone number to call to see if the need is legit. Far as I know, only the blind and those with seizure disorders should be allowed service dogs.
  20. These are professional athletes and playing pro sports is their job. You keep your personal politics out of your job. And yes, an employer has every right to fire you for your personal politics. Which has happened many times. The difference here is, these are rich spoiled athletes that the owners need on the field to win games... But hit a woman, and they kick you to the curb.
  21. Actually, the womanizer, Bill Clinton... doing a deal with NK that didn't do jack shit.
  22. LOL, you are a typical liberal trash bucket to make that kind of statement. Just saying. Plenty of liberals in both states too. Although Texas is a strong conservative state, large cities tend to be full of liberals, and Houston got walloped. How many EC votes did Houston cast? Who cares? Trump won. Hillary lost. Get over it.
