Why is the GOP trying to groom our kids in to Gun Violence, and killing, and away from empathy, understanding and working together, on our problems????
The GOP? Who is pushing guns that's only uses is killing groups of people fast, who is trying to ban talk of empathy, understanding of people that are different, banning is not working together on problems, who is banning investment in the earths future? The GOP, that's who! Broadly speaking, if it is not hard right, white christian, the GOP will try and ban it!

True!
Do they ever do anything positive or helpful? Oh, I don't know things like making sure pot holes are filled, litter is picked up, laws are passed to protect child labor, criminals are punished and not pampered.
Or, are they too busy making personal appearances on TV instead of doing the job you and I are paying them to do?
Christian? Oh, please stop. This is not a Christian nation. Far,very far from it. Besides, we do not have a national religion. We are supposed to have liberty, and justice for all. ALL! That includes people who have no religion. You know that separation of church and state thing. Remember that?

When you get right down to it, it's all about control. Life styles not approved are not allowed, non whites are not allowed to flourish and women need to be kept in their place. Unfortunately this kind of thinking has been around for eons and humanity (read white males) isn't likely to abandon it easily or without a fight. People fear and mistrust change - even if it's ultimately in their best interest

I agree with you, Dragonlady, it is all about control. Sad but very true.
I don't know if it will ever change.
