Yes, our Democracy is at stake, but they can't bring themselves to say who it is that is actually threatening it?  It isn't both parties.  Just one.
Yes, the democrats now led by a Socialist Bernie Sanders and the Progressive Wing who proposed health care-education- jobs-guaranteed pay-old-age care FOR ALL and just any other catchall that can be paid though “ social insurance” and, therefore, labeled FREE!

Fortunately the Constitution stands in their way for now so they would have to change the Constitution. But the Soviet Union wrote such a document.
You remember the Soviet Union don’t you?

REDSTATEWARD had only two choices to choose from, and he still got the answer wrong.


No, REDSTATEWARD.  Healthcare for all is not a threat to our Democracy.  And you might want to educate yourself on the difference between Socialism, which is an economic theory and political ideology, and Democracy, which is a system of government.  Many happily Democratic countries elect Socialist governments.
Thanks for the lesson. You might too, one day, become the next Alexandria Octavio-Cortez.
If you consider that a compliment.

The leader of Red's party is going to be impeached and he's worried sick about a Congresswoman  who hasn't even been sworn in yet. Red is a fraidy Cat.  Don't worry, Red.  You'll get to keep your money.

It's pretty clear that you don't know what "embarrassed" means.  I'll stick with afraid.  Thanks just the same.

I hear the organization that runs such things is having a hard time getting Alexandria Octavio-Cortez and George Soros in the same room for the boogeyman torch-passing ceremony.

“When being choked to death [me] by a big fat f-wit in the crowd at the end of a football game, his big fat sweaty hands around my neck, I really needed a gun to get his "hangman's noose" hands to let go. I was to the stage that I didn't know how much longer I would be able to breathe.”

I’m not at all surprised that even your own countrymen have this reaction to you. Everything else in your post is rubish, but it goes a long way to explain why you wind up on the wrong ends of chokings and why you should never be permitted to hold let alone own a gun.

One drunk and overweight giant does not 'countrymen' make.

The football scenario happened just as I described...he, and his verbally and then physically abusive skinny buddy [kicked mrs bambu in the shins at the end of the match] were drinking Coke out of a large bottle [no doubt mixed with rum or vodka].
When skinny kicked mrs bambu [who was sitting two rows down in front of me with some girlfriends] I went down and said words to the effect of "ok let's all go home now [in peace]...it was then that the red headed giant attacked me.

The rest of my post is 100% correct...well 10 yrs in prison in Australia and 40 years in America for a punch death.

One punch can kill...and does.
Best to teach the boys to have strong minds and call the police/teachers to deal with the bullies.
Even call the cops from the school playground, that'll get some action, I bet.

And the latest...modesty shorts for men at the gym.
Oh dear, what next, MAMILS [Middle Age Men In Lycra] made to wear modesty shorts everywhere including cycling?

Christmas market shootings in France today, people dead and wounded.

The bad people have guns, the good people must have them too.

Americans are so lucky...they can carry guns for protection.
Anyone starts shooting at the Christmas market, Americans can shoot back!

Anyone pulls out a knife and goes to stab them in a road rage situation, Americans can simply pull out their guns and shoot.

http://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/man-charged-over-alleged-road-rage-stabbing/ar-BBQMdGK?li=AAgfYrC&OCID=AVRES000

Video emerged of last month's confrontation, obtained by Nine News, which showed two men yelling at each other after they stopped their vehicles on the M7 motorway before a 42-year-old man was allegedly stabbed in the stomach.

Never get out of the vehicle....it's when bad things happen.

I'm sure that parents of kids killed playing with legally-owned weapons consider themselves "lucky".

A lot of people get killed inside their vehicles by gunfire. Many of them having no connection to the reason shots were fired in the first place. Just dig your hole, hide in it, and never come out.

Individual 1 can’t get a wall built any better than he could create a university, a mortgage company, run an airline or a casino. He’s happy to lie about it. And frothing at the mouth to shut down the government. It looks like Mike Pence will be asking Nick Ayers for a job in Georgia soon.

Kids should never have been allowed access to the guns.
The parents should've been wearing the guns or the guns should've been locked away.
