[w:97]Presidential debate #3

You are correct-but confiscating sporting rifles that are wrongly called "assault rifles" is something all of those candidates seemed to support

under the 1968 GCA, a private citizen couldn't own a fully automatic (ie assault rifle) that was fully automatic when it entered the country unless it was an "amnesty" weapon (ie a war trophy that soldiers could register, pay the 200 dollar tax) after bringing one back illegally prior to 68/ Thus, after 68, private citizens could not own real AK 47s or Sten Guns etc-what they could own were ones that were CONVERTED by a TITLE II manufacturer to fully automatic, then REGISTERED with the ATF by the Manufacturer in the USA. In other words, private citizens have never been able to own actual assault rifles imported into the USA unless they were once ILLEGALLY brought here and then made legal due to the 1968 Amnesty program

Well, correcting me about something I did not comment on. Well done!

Also, any law on assault weapons will define what it means by the term, so your definition is totally ****ing meaningless.
 
None of them are going anywhere but back home in November of next year, but Warren, Booty and Biden appear the least ridiculous.

Yang was hilarious, and Booty's sour reaction to him says it all about his sleazy, self-serving rigidity.

Gabbard would be wiping up the floor with all of them.

Gabbard????? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHA

Good joke.
 
I can't wait till they come to your door for your guns.

Good times coming!

Meh. They won't. There isn't all that much gun control that will pass muster under the 2nd. We have it, I don't like it, but I have to agree with the majority in Heller, and as long as it's there we can only nibble at the periphery. It'll be a few generations before there's any hope of repealing it.

(Naturally, this is why it's so absurd for people to act like government is coming for their guns)
 
We had best hope Joe can keep upright. Because if anyone other than Trump is elected we had best hope it's Biden or America is done. And we know what will come next

JMHO

I think the democrats have to put up a woman to have any chance at beating Trump

Biden is still front runner, but Warren I think is second, and Biden should be really worried.
 
Biden B
Warren B-
Sanders C+
Harris C--
O'Rourke B-
Castro F-
Booker B-
Klobuchar C-
Yang WTF?

Good rating except Casto IMO. He's really got a voice in this race finally
 
Will anyone ever ask Biden about the Juvenile Referral Process?
 
Also, they really do need to define "assault rifles." They're really just saying "scary name" to people, but it's a losing proposition to do that because an awful lot of people who vote Democrat carry and/or are supportive of the concept of the right in general. They just want to hear about why something is a bit too much - a bit too far beyond self-defense - to need to be sold.

The definition used by any law would be negotiated when the bill is being debated. Kinda hard to give a hard and fast definition until then.
 
Did Amy even hear the question or is she just rambling on as if she’s dipped into more Bourbon than I have?
 
Beto: shut up, sit down, go the **** home once it's over. We are not for open borders.




Honestly, Buttgieg is the best. He's clearly intelligent and knowledgable in general, with an even sharper understanding of the issue at question. He can take a gotcha question and turn it into an opportunity to say more while actually answering (the latter most other candidates failed at).

Trump has done so awful, that unlike 2012, I must vote against him. I lament that Buttgieg will probably not be the nominee, but that's going to be my vote in the nomination. He would make a fantastic POTUS. People who can speak off the cuff like that while being factually accurate are able to process a bunch of things at the same time: what's the question, how to answer it, what does it touch on, how can I present another idea in a way that lines up with answering the question, etc.




We need a President like him. Where Obama wandered around, Buttgieg cuts right to the point: here is my point, here is why it is my point, conclusion. Boom, in a minute maybe.

All the other candidates are on about "well I vaguely sort of like this thing, and things are good. You like things? I do. I like things. I like this thing more than that guy/gal (so vote me!)".

I'd vote Buttgieg if he was a Republican.

Through all the debates... Buttgieg is best answering on the fly and not being off-topic tangents guy when answering questions. His brain is clearly the fastest.
 
China and trade... should we make a drinking game centered entirely on the word “tariffs?”

That is like making a drinking game during a baseball game on the terms "ball' and "strike"...
 
Biden: “There’s enormous, enormous opportunities once we get rid of Donald Trump”

:lamo
Opportunities to screw things up beyond all repair. :roll:
 
I can't wait till they come to your door for your guns.

Good times coming!

Yes, I appreciate you stating what most of the anti gun democrats really want-government oppression of people who don't support the socialist swill.

...you don't play that game?

But he can't overcome being gay.

He is unelectable as POTUS.

WTF is going on up there? George asked a specific question on where is our leverage... and not a damn one of them on that stage is even answering that question.

Cheer up, Buttgieg has more than a 50/50 chance of becoming Biden's VP.
 
I don't think so; Biden is lost ... again ... (grin)


Moderator Jorge Ramos to Biden: “Are you prepared to say tonight that you and President Obama made a mistake on deportations?”

Biden: “The president did the best thing that was able to be done.”

Ramos: “What about you?”

Biden: “I’m the vice president of the United States.”

:lamo

Trump: "My hands are not small."
 
Just WTF are you confused about?

How you can be so gullible to never learn the lessons of what makes democrats fail. And that is sliding to the right to compete with the right. Get a goddamn clue and stop lining up to fail in all the same ways the dems have in the past.
 
You are projecting on Sanders, and you know it.

So Bernie didn't support gun bans in is 30 seconds? I guess we saw two different people.
