What I think is, going forward it isn't the government's job to force any vaccine on anyone or make those who don't want to put the vaccine in a certain category of citizens, as it has been done during this pandemic. This should be up to the individual and their doctor. Its like another contentious...
Jump to postTrue, however the problem lies on the fact that big pharma, and the government force citizens to take vaccines. And when the government becomes a multi-billion client of these pharmaceuticals. That's a huge problem. My biggest issue is how both big pharma and big government colluded into forcing 'v...
Jump to postAs far as Kennedy's environmental work, I have no issue with any of that and give him full credit for it. But his other work on autism, vaccines, COVID, and by implication Fauci, has no merit and has been discredited by the scientific community. That is simple fact. The scientific community is not ...
Jump to postRFK2 is an anti-vaxxer. You don't suppose he's slightly biased. In books like this, you have to not just look at who is referenced, but who isn't. Everyone has an agenda. There's nothing wrong with the government pairing with private pharma. Some things are incredibly expensive to research and deve...
Jump to postThis guy gave me so many laughs as Paulie - such a flawed and hilarious character. And he was a class act to work with according to all who knew him.
Jump to postThis is going to be humorous. They got him to man up and sign a contract giving them 44 billion dollars. Money that he has! Money that is under contract, to them! Lawyers are salivating on both sides. A wing of a law school will be built thanks to this one. Elon is kinda smart, but 44 billion attra...

Jump to postThe fact that Japan has so little gun violence means that his security team was not prepared for this. BS. A security team should be ready for anything. They are trained to be ready for the unexpected. The homemade "firearm" wasn't exactly small and concealble. Japan does not have a recen...
Jump to postThere seems to be no motive disclosed so far as to this assassination of Mr. Abe. Japan's justice system is very harsh and the detained alleged assistant could get the death penalty Yes, Japan still has the death penalty, done by hanging, several are done every year - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Jump to postWe elect representatives and Senators to do something, other than all the rest of noise they do that doesn't actually do nothing for the people who sent them there.

Jump to postAnd gun control couldnt avoid the tragedy of the mass shooting in Norway. So clearly, even with gun control and.

No one has suggested any changes or anything to avoid this in the future. Based on what we know from the suspect thus far...
Jump to postIts seems to be close to impossible to having a gun, and obtaining an illegal one seems like a very difficult task.

Jump to postI'm British, too. I like democracy. As far as I can see Trump attempted to subvert the form of democracy practised in the US. That worried me, given the status of the US - world's most powerful democratic nation. I am aware that US politicians are so partisan that investigations they conduct are no...
