They don't value freedom. Talk to one of them about freedom and they'll roll their eyes and tell you you're a typical American. They've been ruled by the Crown their entire history

1. Trump has never declared bankruptcy so your entire “argument” is based on a false premise.
2. Even if he did declare bankruptcy it’s not that big of a deal, it shows he can fight back when he is down and out so to speak.
3. Why don’t you do a little research outside of watching the MSM. If you did, you would discover that several POTUSes have actually declared bankruptcy and went on to become successful POTUSes History didn’t GAF about their bankruptcy.
Sorry if these facts don’t support your “argument “.

Ooh man, that’s pretty dumb.
Pertaining to the border:
We have elected representatives who’s job it is to make laws, and have many already in place, that are designed to protect the border so as to preserve the sovereignty of this nation.
Then we have other government entities who’s job it is to enforce said laws; ice, border patrol, local law enforcement... etc.
We rely on this system. It is not perfect, but it is a system that we have elected for and if implemented correctly, we wouldn’t have the issue that we do.
However, if the government were to ever try to gun confiscation, there will be a civil war. For without guns, our elected officials can quickly become dictators and we have absolutely no power to stop it. See Russia, China, Venezuela.... etc.
also, gun owners usually are conservatives. Conservatives not only don’t like government handouts, they advocate against them. It’s the left that promote and participate in these parasitic cancerous policies. So you’re basically placing that which you and your ilk are guilty of on your opposition.

The people with the fiber to revolt for real still have too much to lose right now. Let the progs tax them into oblivion, totally kill the US dollar, remove every right to rule ones own destiny and see what happens. I’m approaching old man status, have some cheddar squirreled away and hella life insurance policies to make sure mama and the younger ones should be in decent shape. Too much to lose over some bullshite
Let these socialist cocksuckers get control and come after my money or try to take what I’ve worked for my whole life to the point I’m going backwards. Mama would probably have to find a new beau cause it won’t be good when I lose my shite

It could be prosperous, or it could not be. It depends. Given that it is heavily reliant on oil, it needs to diversify, but it probably won't. The paradox of plenty, as it were. Regardless of what Sanders said, it was always a developing country.

As for criminalizing speech, I'm not sure what you mean
I mean making it a criminal act to speak your mind on social media if what you say is deemed hate speech. A stupid meaningless made up term with an ever shifting definition which only serves as a tool to silence unpopular and dissenting opinions.

This is real. Say something deemed offensive on Twitter in the UK and the cops come to your door. People have been sent to prison for YEARS for "hate speech" in Europe and even Canada

Ok, so then what about the examples of China and Russia prior to implementing capitalist policies?

I hope one day soon some money backs a case all the way to the SCOTUS to strike down hate crimes.
It's a horrific law.

It's going to happen in the UK before it happens here. I think that it's funny, though based on comic series, V maybe a fortelling of things to come. The resurgence of the IRA, Liberal Scots pushing for Independence, and SJWism becoming on par with Wahabism in Europe , and the Brexit failures.
The UK will boil over one day.

1. Unsustainable debt, down the road, I see a complete collapse of the America's economy. No one knows that reset button looks like. For now, we print money we don't have...How long can we do this?
This is a problem we brought upon ourselves with the Federal Reserve.

3. The endless attack on white males...shaming them, mocking them and essentially beating us down for having a great country...we're called privileged and supremacists.
What puts me off is whites people are not suppose to have a country they can identify as theirs? ...America must be filled with every race and religion around the globe in one big melting pot? No other country welcomes this much diversity because they want to protect "their" culture.
This is very layered and is tied to our history. To be brief, the United States has never been a homogeneous country. It also has made poor decisions regarding racial relations that have created other long term problems.
To be fair, the US isnt the only country to make these mistakes. However , the US does not have a homogeneous culture to fall back upon.

4. The push to not build a wall at the southern board by own government is disturbing, thus allowing the flow of people beyond our infrastructure, not to mention the drugs and crime that comes along with it. Our compassion will play a part in our downfall? ICE reports are scary....
I'm on the pro-wall side. My issue is that the wall by itself will not matter once we get a new POTUS or Congress. You can always create sapping points in walls later. Or you can redirect ICE and other agencies to ignore certain problems regarding construction.
We need a total overhaul of the Visa system. Right now more Overstays are in the US than people border hopping.
7th year Visa Overstay > Border Crossing

9. The constant push from about 50% of Americans for more government (we can't afford the one we have now), 50% of Americans are in favor of Medicare for all. Congress fights over election results from 2 years ago, but Congress is going to take over a 2 Trillion dollar industry and make it work better? Put down the pipe
I think the bigger problem is "why is medication so much higher in the US?" And "if we have a concentration of the world's best doctors, why dont we see the benefits of cheaper healthcare"?
6 REAL reasons healthcare is high in US
quote:
11. Silencing conservative voices, censorship is a growing problem...Using the IRS as a political weapon, unthinkable
Conservatives are free to create their own platforms. Same for 16.
quote:
13. Public education is infested with liberalism corrupting the minds of young people. I know first hand having two children in public school..
Why dont Republicans vote these policies out? No Child Left Behind was the beginning of a disaster. It's coming full circle now.
quote:
5. The push to legalize drugs...take note of Seattle and San Francisco's homeless problem there. Complete disaster created by liberals who are tired of locking up drug addicts. So let them take over the streets. Colorado, drugs and drug dealing are a problem at STEM HS. Another school shooting ...not to mention the Opioids epidemic.
You could replace drugs with alcohol, opioids, or any vice of choice. That is a personal responsibility problem, not a government problem.
We shouldn't let moral guidelines dictate our legal system. Did Republicans learn anything from Prohibition? All you are doing is creating a Black Market and subsequently paying for jail instead of profiting.
Go ahead and downvote me but I want you to understand.

Thank God for our bill of rights. Why do you think they want to destroy the Electoral College and rewrite the constitution so bad?

70% of Americans are way too fat and out of shape to participate in a war that would last longer than 3-4 days or extend past their immediate neighborhood.

True, but we can still shoot straight from 200 yards. :)

The Civil War you speak of is already upon us.
It's just a cold war at the moment. But all you have to do is watch a few hours each of FOX, CNN and MSNPC and you'll see it.
The division is real, and the news networks are complicit in exacerbating the rift and fanning the flames.

1. Gun confiscation
2. Continual muslim pushing of their ideology as they abuse our laws, and telling me that my Christian beliefs are not acceptable anymore here in the US of A
3. Look at #2 and switch muslims for "the gays"
Sadly all 3 of these might hit there tipping points in our life time.

These things go hand and hand. People that lack personal responsibility are much more likely to seek government assistance. Look at all the single mothers on welfare.
