Look, the Orange Oaf was in office at the time. He could have ordered the Army up there to give the crowds fifteen minutes to disperse and then kill everyone who doesn't. Did he do it? No. As a result, you had all of the property damage as well as giving the impression that future riots would similarly be tolerated. It was the same thing with the so-called, 'Autonomous zone,' how did that experiment go, anyway? They should have been given fifteen minutes to leave the affected area, then those who failed to comply killed on sight. The D.C., "Insurrection," as well, obviously. THAT would have saved money, also. You don't have to have a trial for the dead. I mean, maybe if someone says they can't breathe and you remove your knee from that person's neck...just maybe...these simple misunderstandings about what actually caused that person's death can be avoided. I wonder if Chauvin went into the coroner's office and held up Floyd's head like he was taking a picture with a deer he fell? That's honestly what that still of him on the street kind of reminded me of. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T. Sherman |

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18768 | Never really looked at why the rumor went out about Biden wanting to ban gas stoves. He doesn't support it. But this must be it.
Well, my mom got leukemia in her 40's. Cooked over a gas stove all that time. Linked? I don't know. https://news.stanford.edu/2023/06/16/cooking-gas-stoves-emits-benzene-2/ You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Some cities are restricting and banning gas appliances as part of their climate change reduction program. Vancouver, BC is even banning gas furnaces in new builds. California has multiple gas appliance bans in name of climate change. "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you." Benjamin Franklin |

None of which has to do with Biden. Yet dumb righties like Ted Cruz keep lying about a Biden “gas stove” ban. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Cities bringing the fight to the enemy, and leading from the front. Good for them. |

| Gandler Member since: Aug 15, 2019 Threads: 27 Posts: 4256 | I am not a fan of gas, before I even worried about environmental stuff. Lots of dangers having gas lines in your home. Appliances are more expensive, (much more expensive if you need to install gas lines,) yes the average hourly cost of using a gas appliance is lower, but to achieve these savings you need to use the same appliances for many years. Also, it is just another utility account to track and deal with. I do not think it should be banned (though I support local governments being able to ban it if they choose, as the safety and logistical issues need to be worked out locally.) But, I do not think a Federal ban is the right answer (currently, it may be one day.) |

Correct. It’s not Biden. It’s just part of the liberal/progressive/Democrat party agenda many ‘middle’ voters are rebelling against. The Republicans are likely going to nominate by many objective standards the worst Presidential candidate in history, and he is leading in the polls. Despite the overwhelming opposition to Republican abortion stances. Is it his Trump) charming personality or the OVERALL DEMOCRAT AGENDA? |

That’s an easy one: it’s Biden’s age. The “Democrat agenda” keeps doing quite well in all these off-year elections that the GOP keeps getting shellacked in. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |
