The Unknown Poster

Interesting discussion this morning about Kane and how his stock has fallen lately. He could be the steal of the deadline...or the bust.

I guess there were no Indian chefs in India that knew how to cook Indian food.

The idea of armed teachers is kowtowing to the bottom feeders. I can accept that Trump is really stupid. But my goodness, I'd love to have him explain this. Military-trained teachers. Who are training them? Who's paying for that training? Are those teachers paid more? Are they wearing their guns in a holster all day long? If so, what about the inherent risk of someone taking the gun? Are they locked in a gun safe? If so, who has access? What happens in a lock down scenario? Do teachers parole the hallways with guns drawn? Are guns just left in the top drawer of every desk? And ofcourse, even if he could answer those questions, explain how teachers firing back when a mass shooter is in a school and a 1000+ kids are running screaming through the halls works? I guess when the teachers inevitably pick off a bunch of kids with friendly fire, its okay. They are "heroes". Considering the idiot president needed notes to remind him to say "I hear you", he sure wasnt listening.

lol the "last word" thing is silly. Speaking of which, Dregger on 1290 explaining that top players are willing to waive no trades to come to Winnipeg.

Trump is bought and paid for. Officially pushing to arm teachers as a detrrrent to school shootings. Insanity. More guns is not the answer but the NRA and their puppets are actually going to benefit from these shootings. What a world.

Yikes

Not remotely.

Jets also have that first round pick they are willing to part with. EK would be a great pick up! Rumour has it Edmonton is interested too

So you agree with me. Because that’s what I said was overblown and you began debating as if I said something else. Jets have signed some free agents. Others they have not. Other teams have the same issue. It’s obvious. Yeesh

Unbelievable.

I actually watched some of that. I very much enjoy Ken Burns. I should not understate the cultural influence of prohibition.

I wonder if that idiot thought he could make threats to the PM and get away with it because it was just Twitter. Throw the book at him.

Yes. And to not just beat up on Conservative groups, Unions do the same thing. I wish lobby spending would be outlawed. Election donations should be private citizens and limited. And entire campaign expenses should be limited as well.

Prohibition wasnt a cultural thing, was "new", was a denial of rights rather then an actual right and it was believed the repeal would help law enforcement since prohibition wasnt working anyway. It was very unpopular. The NRA has helped make guns a cultural right that many Americans who are not gun owners feel is somehow a God-given right. People debate the amendment but realistically, I think it is pretty clearly not relevant today.

If the NRA ever thinks critical mass against guns in general is on the horizon, then they will support an assault weapons ban. If the Dems ever get control of Congress and the White House they should try to repeal the 2nd amendment altogether since its outdated and completely misunderstood by the general public anyway. The pushback would be enormous...and then would be forgotten.
