I was also about 13 when I got a 22 cal single shot rifle. I don’t think in the 50s, anyone was concerned about mass shootings and there wasn’t much gun crime. That I believe was because the death penalty was standard for first degree murder and prison and hard labor for other crimes.

Exactly. And the Teachers (union members) are indoctrinating these young skulls of mush with anti-American, anti-capitalist, pro-socialist brainwashing. The Dems know this and want more anti-American voters.

Please God, let this effort fall by the wayside.

Try teaching a sophomore (10th grade class) for a few years and then decide.

Should have known Ms. Pressley was a Democrat. Who else would introduce such a stupid idea? When an ordinary citizen can see through something like this, why it is it that a supposedly brilliant educated elected official cannot?

Times have changed a great deal!

The “social contract” was reinforced at home, at school, at church, in the work place, in the sports arenas, in public, etc., etc.

Then SCOTUS, Ted Kennedy, Jesse Jackson, NAACP, LBJ, ACLU, et al got busy and screwed America up!

Shame on us, we let them!

Hopefully, it is not too late

You fiend! The Crows were obviously an expression of your latent racism. That rattler was a Democrat! Squirrels?! Cute, talking squirrels from a Disney cartoon?! How could you.

Military age lowered to 16, and parents get to send them in against their will, so you have someplace to put them if they get on your nerves with their chutzpah and rebelliousness;-}

You were just profiling. How would you know it was rabid, unless it bit you and you tested positive for rabies? It might have been reacting to centuries of oppression. Next time, don’t rush to judgment!

Yes, we will.

And, we’d sure better make damn sure that the noxious/venomous/LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist/Fascist/Communist/Democrat thugs are not allowed to steal the election!

We “normals,” we “deplorables,” we believers in Making America Great Again folks best be alert to any and all forms of election cheating!

Then the thing to do is sign up as poll watchers and precinct workers.

I was smart enough to not let it bite me, and he did turn out to be rabid.

Mah daddy taught me the ways of wild animals and rabies - the problem was, he never taught me the ways of rabid people!

I had to learn about them mahself!

The hard way!
