    That's such a crock and really highlights that you have nothing reasonable to respond.

    If anyone would know about lacking reasonable responses, it would be those posters on this site from Mobilhoma...maybe you should ask...oh wait. Yeah. You already know...

    Really? Are you telling me Abraham Lincoln wasn't a Republican? Or are you telling me he and his party wasn't responsible for the Emancipation Proclamation?

    He's too busy admiring Manchin for not always blindly following the other Dems.

    What would Lincoln think of drag queens in schools?

    I'm saying that the Republicans of those days were NOT the Republicans of today. The response to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and associated things such as the Southern Strategy migrated the GOP to what they are today. Using the Republican heritage of Lincoln to apply to today is as silly as referring to Whigs/Tories or me calling for DKR stadium to be painted crimson because he was a Sooner from Hollis. You're better than that. mb's not, but you are. :)

    I knew the party switcharoo nonsense was coming. Predictable.

    Democrats haven't changed. You hear the same arguments about abortion as you heard them say about slavery. "It's not really a human being"

    Hell, I posit the democrat party still wants blacks to be enslaved. The only difference between today and the 1860s is that today the demx want them enslaved to the federal government via handouts and welfare programs.

    Someone remind me. Which party had the most votes Against the Civil Rights Act.
    In the House it was
    Demx 152 for 96 against
    Reps 138 34

    Senate
    Demx 46 21
    Rep 27 6

    That is a whole lot of Demx against equality for blacks.
    Maybe someone needs to remind The race hustlers

    Don't be daft. The parties switched poles between Lincoln and FDR. The pushback from the Civil Rights Act and the 50 year pro-life movement have migrated red states to Republican. Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, Alabama had conservative Democratic politicians.

    I've lived in the south long enough to know many southern democrats when I was a boy. They don't even resemble modern republicans at all.

    What politician said the following :

    "They're gonna put ya'll in chains"!

    Now think how ignorant that comment is. Now tell me what political party uses and manipulates blacks.

    What I find remarkable about this is that the Left views this as discrediting the "good guy with a gun" mentality. The exact opposite is the logical conclusion. It discredits the idea that individuals should disarm and rely on the police to protect them.

    I also challenge the assumption that few to no teachers want to arm themselves. If I was a teacher and saw that video, I would be training with my Sig every weekend.

    A teacher in Duncanville shot a killed a would be murderer a week or so ago. I guess they were having summer school there. No one was killed other than the bad guy. One teacher or school staff member with a gun prevented a crime. Never reported except on the dark web.

    I know nothing about this bill, but often it gets voted down due to what is attached to the bill that is completely unrelated.

    Why is it lunacy? I can't see how an amber alert type of system for active shooter situations is going to be helpful.

    Amber alerts are broadcast to hopefully help find a missing and possibly abducted child.
    Silver alerts do the same for demented elderly (amazing we haven't needed one for Joe yet)

    How would a system like that make an active shooter situation better? I can't see it, so please explain.

    And it looks like your boy in DC didn't have enough balls to keep his tweet up, so maybe he found out the Republicans were voting against yet another non-sensical and wasteful spending bill proposed by Democratx.

    So you don't know how it would help an active shooter situation. Got it.
    All you want to do is try to bash Conservatives.

    I scanned it and did not see anything attached that is secondary to the bill. Like others have stated already, I’m not sure what that accomplishes other than potential panic by some in the population. So many Amber alerts already go off in big cities, I think a lot of people ignore them.
