America got a little greater again thanks again to President Biden and the wise majority who voted him in.

In my world...today is the 25th anniversary of the "Port Arthur Massacre" ...
dozens of people having lunch at the Broad Arrow Cafe, including 2 little girls...slaughtered.
Slaughtered with an assault rifle.

We the people went nuts with outrage.
Prime Minister John Howard listened...introduced new gun laws.
Bye bye assault rifles, semi automatic rifles, pump-action shotguns etc in the hands of the general public.
Bolt action only allowed.

The People wanted it...not so in America...there the good people want guns because the bad people have them.
In my world, the bad people cannot drive over the border with trucks full of illegal weapons.

You are talking about US to Mexico traffic for the most part. Mexico would benefit from the violence reduction if the US adopted an Australian policy toward private possession of firearms, but not as much as the US.

Too bad so many good people here die because of them. What's the "occasional" kid shooting his friend with a parent's gun?  Just the cost of doing business, right Bambu?

“This, in fact, was a fatal wound to the back of Mr. Brown’s head as he was leaving the site, trying to evade being shot at ARRESTED by these particular law enforcement officers who we believe did nothing but a straight-up execution,” Mr. Kendall said.

Joe Manchin on federalization of elections:

How in the world could you, with the tension we have right now, allow a voting bill to restructure the voting of America on a partisan line?
That would lead to anarchy.
"I just believe with all my heart and soul that’s what would happen, and I’m not going to be part of it,"

Well there is at least one democrat Senator with common sense.

And given your fix, therefore he deserved to be killed in your opinion.

Got it.

But your "fix" is conjecture, especially given what has been happening. Trying to avoid getting shot is pretty believable.

You fixed it into an admission of a crime on the part of the police.
