"Can't Count Votes? Just Draw Straws."

Journal by fustakrakich

That the Democrats lose House seats, do not win the Senate and barely manage to drag their demented presidential candidate towards a stalemate tells a lot about their lack of sane policies. A donor party completely disinterested in what the people really want - medicare for all, no fracking etc. - will have little chance to survive a future onslaught of conservatives with a more competent figure head than Donald Trump. ...should Trump lose this election, Trumpism will only grow and make the U.S. ungovernable.

    If you were in a well regulated militia and you showed up with the wrong weapon you would be punished. But somehow a well regulated militia didn't have gun control...

      Define "punished". Often times, punishment means a senior petty officer bludgeoning you with a verbal "dumbass". Worse, your mates might laugh at you. Showed up with the wrong weapon, you say? You mean - Guns told me to bring my M-14, but I brought a .45? It's going to take some seriously aggravating circumstance for that to turn into either Mast or a Court.

      ...shall not be infringed.. by the state.

      If they wish to flog themselves and each other, by all means!
