Border standoff between Texas, feds intensifies as governor defies Supreme Court ruling
  • No, you see I do know. I was able to get many people to go searching for some examples because they were so sure but came up empty handed just like you. Throwing around terms of murder and racism in here like they lost their true meaning.

  • Alabama completes first execution by nitrogen asphyxiation
  • That made me chuckle. However it seems to go against the premise of your argument. Kill more to prevent the killing of one? I’m afraid there is no good solution. Maybe neuralink will one day allow us to read the memories of those accused for definite convictions.

  • Alabama completes first execution by nitrogen asphyxiation
  • I would not say executing innocents is a good thing. I understand your compassion though. It speaks well to you. Unfortunately there is usually no being made whole when it comes to tragedy. I believe the bar for proving guilt when the death penalty is involved is quite high. I have seen the cases of the few exonerated from death row and I am thankful for that. There are people out there fighting for those wrongly accused. However, there are many more clear cut open and shut cases of those not deserving to exist among their fellow man who have done things to the innocent that are hard to even read.

  • Gov. Gretchen Whitmer to ask lawmakers to make community college free for all high school graduates
  • I can see where you are coming from and do not disagree. However these decisions have to be made in aggregate and proportionally, the “geniuses” that failed or dropped out of highchool, are most likely a small minority compared to the overall population.

  • Gov. Gretchen Whitmer to ask lawmakers to make community college free for all high school graduates
  • My guess is it has to do with effective use of resources. The tuition is free to the student but not the taxpayer. Teachers and administrators don’t work for free. If you can’t get through state funded education up to high school then the chances probably aren’t great for college. Those seeking a second chance could always complete a ged and get the benefit, hopefully.

  • Trump Says Anyone Who Donates to Haley Is 'Permanently Banned' From MAGA
  • I’m glad you took the time to write that out. You took it exactly where I wanted to continue my original comment but didn’t want to over topic a single comment. I have lived in several different countries and am very aware of how America is perceived around the world. Unfortunately I believe that reputation is beyond repair due to decades of abuse of our standing by many presidents.

    You really hit the nail on the head with the two-party system. The blind voting along party lines is the greatest threat to the country and the left vs right clashing could be our downfall. Politicians that want to do the right thing don’t even have a chance because “the party” decides their fate. George Washington warned against the party system in his farewell address. It is why I will not be voting for either party at this next election, but I will be voting. Thank you for showing that there is still civility among Americans and here is to hoping for a better future for us all.

  • Trump Says Anyone Who Donates to Haley Is 'Permanently Banned' From MAGA
  • He’s not “my guy”. Just putting things in perspective around here. This is fat and content America and not Weimar Germany so good luck putting together a path to a “final solution”. Almost hysterical. Trump seems to be the only one against war unlike almost all establishment politicians. Biden is slinging bombs and artillery like our GDP depends on it…oh it does. I’d love to see some examples of these threats towards “The Others” because I don’t see them. Illegal immigrants, sure, they can gtfo, we have laws for a reason.

    We can agree that Trump should not be the President. That is obvious but we should not fear whoever holds the position. The foundational structure of our branched government with functional checks and balances along with the constitution are the reasons America has and will continue to persevere.
