"2) He's offering support for Red Flag laws"

Guaranteed to lose the 2020 elections. There's no proper due process or sufficient body of evidence required with those laws.

This does not mean the other ideas are not worth pursuing.

I agree that we need more mental institutions and in some cases involuntary institution. If this cuts the problem by half, it is doing a good job.

1 point plan: It’s time for the country to turn back to God and beg forgiveness for trying to make it on our own and screwing everything up. End the persecution of Christians in this country, allow prayer in public, promote the common good using God’s plan and word and I guarantee everything will start to turn.

And these "Red Flag Orders"? Pretty soon, Demonrats will morph "take guns away from those who are a threat to others" into "no white Christian Republican needs a gun." Can't people see that?

I can !

Yup.

You can be rest assured that most of the red states will be all too eager to aid the Fedgov with enforcement of this law.

Will we see sanctuary cities for refugees from this new sanction?

At the same time they went for “mainstreaming” in public school. These problem start with parents, but are exacerbated by the commie controlled public schools. We now have the second and generation of parents who went through the “PC” schools raising children. What our society is seeing now is the product of leftist indoctrination.

The only sinister ideology that has many adherents in the U.S. is Islam, but we can’t talk about that......

“...those firearms can be taken through rapid due process.”

It sounds too much like the unconstitutional FISA court nonsense. If a person is too dangerous to have a gun then they are too dangerous to remain free. If you are to deny someone’s God given rights the a trial by jury must be required with no plea bargains allowed and those found to be too dangerous must be institutionalized for treatment and public safety.

To do otherwise is an abuse of our natural, God-given rights and freedoms.

They’ve already normalized people who desire their own genital mutilation. Enough said.

Has anyone ever heard of the varsity quarterback being a mass murderer?

I haven’t.

There were photographs yesterday of the last three murderers.

They are almost identical.

They look like Harry Potter with a bad haircut.

“1) He’s calling on the DOJ and FBI to investigate white supremecy...with help from social media companies.”

The social media companies cover up the truth by deleting it. Copies are saved, though, and voters will know the truth in 2020.

“His parents’ Facebook accounts are active. Their names are Moira and Steve Betts. On Facebook, his mom posted pictures of pumpkins, family, Christmas ornaments, Christian religious statues and a graphic that declared ‘stop the alt right.’ She labeled a photo of Betts and his sister Megan, ‘My loves.’ His dad wrote on Facebook that he was a technical lead for a technologies corporation. Betts’ father posted about net neutrality and funny parody videos. He also shared a video that criticized the rhetoric of President Donald Trump. Here’s his dad’s post the day after Sandy Hook:...”

As I recall the ACLU was big on that, and in TX, Governor Ann Richards was happy to empty State Hospitals. Alzheimer/ Dementia pts were supposed to be placed in private institutions. Drug and Alcohol treatment, unless dual diagnosis pts were SOL.

The focus became “mainstreaming”, remuneration, and good old Ann replaced competent caring directors with her friends. One charged $35,000 cuff links on his state credit card, another a luxury sports car. it was a disaster. Beds were cut, catchment areas denied beds for emergency detentions.
I still feel anger that I had clients die while I was trying everything I could to get them in for treatment.

That’s what the Satanic ‘justice’ minded Left is counting on.

I would call Progressivism a sinister ideology and it has far more adherents in the U.S. than Islam.

You cannot stop some individual from doing harm if they’ve a mind to.
