Welcome to DU, egold2604!

Good to have you with us! Sounds interesting, but seriously - WHEN has a CEO ever had to answer for any crimes that a corporation commits? Hell, most of the time there isn't even any trial! Just a pissant "settlement" of some sort that slaps 'em on the tip of one of their fingernails.

Welcome to DU, JackHughes!

Glad you're here. This just makes me feel sick. As I write this, I just wanna scream and then cry!

Sounds like it might be worse than that.

Who the hell is arguing the case on our side? Bozo the Clown?

Are those the same "laws on the books" that the GOP typically wants to tear into little pieces

or fray at the edges, or defund, or refuse to enforce, or the ones they rail against because they hate regulations 'cause they just gotta have their freedom-freedom? Those laws?

And if there ARE such "laws on the books," WHY do we still have this problem that those "laws on the books" are presumably designed to address?

Oh for God's sake...

Okay let's see… "suspect has been arrested before…"
...and can still get a gun?

Good Grief. This is getting RIDICULOUS.

Say WHAT????

"The problem with Obamacare is that it allows people to wait until they’re very sick to purchase insurance" - Say WHAT??????

Where are they getting that? This claim is made while people are being urged to purchase insurance NOW? Regardless of the state of their health at the moment?

Gone mad, alright.

What. The. Fuck???? Guns in BARS???? Dear God! Just what we want - guns and alcohol in close proximity. GREAT. And when the police are called, how are they gonna know who's the "good guy with a gun" and who's the "bad guy with a gun" if they have to walk in another neighborhood Shootout at the OK Corral?

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
