  1. Reduce guns and crime over time, not overnight:

    – Amend the 2nd Amendment (“militia” “arms”)
    – Make it harder (age, background etc) to buy
    – Ban AR-15s, similar weapons (reduce w/ time)
    – Increase sentence for illegal guns
    – Embarrass suspect(s) to reduce copycats
    – Pay cops same as pilots to improve quality
    – Build more prisons to demonstrate oversupply
    – Reform the bail policy; lock repeat offenders
    – Shame, recall judges and DAs who reduce sentences

    1. an AR15 is just 1 squeeze 1 bullet. No different from a pistol. Which pistols are used 7-10 times and is the leading one used in school massacrers

    2. Paying cops more doesnt nothing. Need higher standards, better training and move cops to different units. Just like the military does youll know if the person knows their job or is bad. Keeps people on their toes and do better.

    3. Agree again on this one, but guess who puts light sentencing and put DA in charge of reduce sentencing? Democrats
      – Reform the bail policy; lock repeat offenders
      – Shame, recall judges and DAs who reduce sentences

  2. Thank-You!! Speaking the Truth and Understanding the way it is and what’s going on.
    America needs a Serious Course Correction🙏

  3. Protect the Black community too. I work hard and put myself through college. Me and my son. You think I like all these damn shootings in my neighborhood…So sick and tired of all the Bullshit these politicians say. As long as I live, nothing will be done.😡

    1. @silverpairaducks You said: “You will die a slave without [the second amendment]”

      I say: How do you justify this statement?

    2. @silverpairaducks You said: “ou will fall under the boot of an oppressive government. The government should fear the citizens not the other way around”

      I say: Why do you say that? Why should either the citizen be afraid of the government or the government be afraid of the citizen? Can’t these two entities work to support each other? Isn’t it better for both perhaps to cast a watchful but not a distrusting eye over the other’s actions?

      I support a government that does for me what I cannot do for myself. I therefore think the government allows me to have things I could not have if I alone tried to arrange them. I therefore think a government that serves my needs is a government that works for me. What’s wrong with that?

  4. 🫵😎💬It’s just way to much money ladies and gentlemen THOSE DRAAAAAAWWWLLLLS!!!!!!!!!!

  5. Highland park must not be close to the southern borders, or she wouldn’t show up .

  6. She really is the bottom of the barrel of Vice Presidents. This is what happens when you pick someone based on their gender and skin color.

  7. She is going to get on top of the Tree Diversity issues in Highland Park. Can’t have tree racism.
