Republicon Prayer:

   "Dear Lord, we pray for those 17 innocent young people who were murdered in Florida yesterday by another kooky white supremacist with an AR-15... and we also thank you for the generous NRA bribes which helped us to get elected to block any efforts to prevent more of these senseless school shootings.  Amen."

Huh?  Your comment makes no sense, Harry. Could you fit this chart on a legible bumper sticker?

Are you referring to the omission of the $30 million the NRA/Russians donated to Trump in 2016, or what?

Bumper sticker mentality. And no, not referring to an omission. See if you can figure it out.

Stupid, false comment-- especially for a guy who usually comments on my analyses in soundbytes.

I thought you and Walt were complaining about my lengthy, overly-detailed commentaries-- e.g., about NSAM 263, CIA history, etc.

Now you have changed your story to "bumper stickers?"

Bumper sticker mentality, cut and paste commentary. That's all you got.

Horseshit, Harry.

Why do you always lie about this stuff?

In the case of outing the NRA bribery of the GOP, it's been a long time coming.

This GOP/NRA bullshit in the U.S. should have been shut down years ago. It's absurd.

Here's another "bumper sticker" for Harry... 



NRA-Backed Congress Members Refuse to Offer More than 'Thoughts and Prayers' as Student Survivors Mount Protests
Their responses are telling.

February 17, 2018


In Parkland, Florida, a single gunman killed 17 high school students last week. In response to the recent shooting, a new video from NowThis shows the reactions of NRA-backed representatives in Congress to a reporter asking them for “any solutions at all, other than thoughts and prayers,”regarding gun control. Their responses are telling.

After Rep. Masha Blackburn (R-TN) was asked, “Do you have anything besides thoughts and prayers to offer? Any solutions at all for this gun violence?” all she had to say was, “We are so concerned about those precious children and families,” as she ducked into the elevator as fast as she could repeating “this is a members only elevator.”

The reporter pressed on saying, “I know you’re concerned enough to pay for the funerals— are you concerned enough to do anything else at all?”

She responded by crossing her arms over her chest and repeating, “This is a members only elevator.” And when pressed again for any kind of solution, she said, “My heart breaks for these families.”

Rep. Ron Desantis (R-FL) responded to the reporter’s calm request for any kind of solution to gun violence other than thoughts and prayers with “I gotta go,” as he scurried rapidly away from the reporter down the stairs.

The reporter walked with him and asked again. Desantis responded with, “I mean praying for people, I don’t think you should diminish that.”

The reporter said he didn’t diminish it, just asked for anything in addition to prayers, and referenced the famous Frederick Douglass quote: “I prayed for freedom for twenty years, but received no answer until I prayed with my legs.”

Other representatives slammed doors in the reporter’s face and flat out ignored the questions.

Each of the Congress people in the video received thousands of dollars from the NRA.

In response to the general inaction on the part of Congress and the President when it comes to gun control, the Douglass High School students who survived this week’s shooting in Floridaare calling for a widespread movement of change,including school walk-out protests across the nation. They want this shooting to mark a turning point for this country on gun control.


“We are going to be the last mass shooting,” said Emma Gonzalez, a high school senior and survivor of the Parkland, Floridaf shooting in an impassioned speech at a gun control rally in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.



Gonzalez called out President Trump, Congress and the other adults around her for refusing to take action to prevent the kind of horrors she recently witnessed in her school.



“If the president wants to come up to me and tell me to my face that i was a terrible tragedy and how it should never have happened, and maintain telling us how nothing is going to be done about it, I’m gonna happily ask him how much money he received from the National Rifle Association.”


She followed up with the answer to the question she'd ask Trump: $30 million dollars.



"To every politicia who is taking donations from the NRA, shame on you," she said through tears.

Yep, more of your bumper sticker mentality. "Ban the NRA, school shootings will stop."  Simple solutions come from simple minds. Like yours.

The GOP/NRA complex has blocked every rational attempt to implement gun control measures that would have  helped to prevent mass shootings.

The problem has been clearly linked to gun sales and gun ownership rates in the U.S.

As one example, we have roughly the same prevalence of mental illness as other G-7 nations with much lower homicide rates--indicating that mental illness is not the essential factor in our sky high homicide rates.

As for "simple minds," what is YOUR solution?

I've said several times that a "the" solution does not exist. But, I do know things have to be done with reality in mind. BTW, your self serving bullshit above "indicates" no such thing. What it "indicates" is you jerking yourself off yet again, trying to sound profound. Your NRA phobia is just more of your bumper sticker bullshit. This isn't a linear problem, it's got many levels, which makes it out of your league to understand. Stick to what you're good at...i.e. donkey f-ing midgets.
