I don't know of a less reliable source.Do you know of a more reliable source?

Like mandates and lockdowns? Killing energy production?So you believe that it is not possible for our government to turn into an oppressive authoritarian government?
Why not? Everyone else here has.You pretend to speak for "founding fathers"?
First of all, Thanksgiving was not instituted by the founding fathers. It was instituted by William Bradford, Governor of Plymouth Colony. The meat they feasted on (five deer) was provided by the Native Americans who would naturally have killed the deer with their weapons, which at the time was bow and arrow. That was in 1621. America, as an independent nation, would not be declared until 155 years later with the Declaration of Independence - long after William Bradford and everyone else involved in the first Thanksgiving were dead. This story says nothing about founding fathers, the 2nd amendment, or even about guns more generally. But I'm glad you brought it up to refresh our memories.How quaint. So on Thanksgiving day all the men went out and shot fresh meat to prepare the thanksgiving feast.
What assumptions do you mean?Why are your assumptions relevant? Are your opinions more valuable than a middle-schooler's??
So, you will not commit to naming a more reliable source, eh? That says a lot.I don't know of a less reliable source.
Mandates can be good or bad, depending on what is being mandated. If you have a specific mandate in mind, please name it. As far as lockdowns, there never was a broad-based lockdown. There was a brief and very partials lockdown of just some activities - nothing at all like what is going on in China right now, which is unpopular enough to spark wide-spread protests. That is what happens when you have a government that is not accountable to the people through any kind of democratic process. Actually, to stay on the China lockdowns for a bit more, initially the targeted lockdowns in China were reasonably popular with the people. But then the Omicron variant hit China and blew apart their zero-covid strategy. Because they had relied exclusively on lockdowns, they did not put any emphasis on vaccination. Only a tiny fraction of the Chinese are vaccinated against covid, and the vaccine they are using is their own Sinovac, which is not as effective as mRNA vaccines from the West. But for political reasons they are not importing any vaccines from the West. So the people of China are relatively inexperienced with covid, either from natural immunity or from vaccine immunity, which leaves them no choice but lockdowns, and now even those are failing.Like mandates and lockdowns?
He is going to be disappointed. Today crude oil continued its downward slide, now costing $77/barrel, as compared to the high of $119 back in March. Part of the reason, oddly enough, is the lockdowns in China. When large portions of China are locked down, Chinese businesses use less oil, which reflects back to the world market prices.Saturday I had a chat with an oil man from Texas. He started off saying he was Republican and voted for Trump. he is all excited and really believes Biden wants to see oil go to 200 dollars . Based on that, he says he may vote for Biden.
Key word is "rates"Sorry, doesn't pass the smell test when Illinois, NY and Cali are not there.
It is Not about the gun. It is all about who has the gun and who doesn't.I mean.... a nation of 330 million people, a great many of whom possess guns, in a place that has tons of conflict built into it with all the political and social division...
Yeah, it's not surprising there's a lot more gun violence/mass shootings here than in other places.
That kind of reminds you of tea Boone Pickens big investment in windmills.Like mandates and lockdowns? Killing energy production?

Just about any media source that you choose to point to that didn't spend six years committed to vindicating the "Trump Russia collusion" narrative. The list is pretty long.So, you will not commit to naming a more reliable source, eh? That says a lot.
Our vaccines don't impede transmission in any way, as far as our current evidence is concerned.Only a tiny fraction of the Chinese are vaccinated against covid, and the vaccine they are using is their own Sinovac, which is not as effective as mRNA vaccines from the West. But for political reasons they are not importing any vaccines from the West.
Every source they didn't spend six years screaming "Trump Russia collusion" from the house tops. What is so hard about acknowledging that answer?Do you know of a more reliable source?
densely populated areas have more of everythingSo crime is not a problem in states or cities run by democrats?
My first laugh of the day.
They don't have more space, they don't have more freedom, they don't have more self-determination, they don't have more happiness. The fact is the densely populated areas seem to have less of all the most important things.densely populated areas have more of everything
Have you ever heard of listing stats on a per capita basis?densely populated areas have more of everything
what an absurd, troll questionCan you guarantee that the election process will always be honestly administered? I will answer for you, You lack the ability to make that guarantee.
Name the best one - the most reliable one - or one right there at the top in your opinion, and we will see. That is, if you don't mind having your favorite news source scrutinized too much.Just about any media source that you choose to point to that didn't spend six years committed to vindicating the "Trump Russia collusion" narrative.

That is false.Our vaccines don't impede transmission in any way, as far as our current evidence is concerned.

The more people you pack in a small area, the more problems will occurThey don't have more space, they don't have more freedom, they don't have more self-determination, they don't have more happiness. The fact is the densely populated areas seem to have less of all the most important things.
When you're dealing with sources that aren't part of the "legacy media constellation" reliability turns on the plausibility of what is being said relative to other information that you can pull together. What we know about our "legacy media constellation" is that it is very unreliable and has been lying to us for years. This is not just something I'm whipping up here as I respond to your post, this is widely acknowledged by virtually all Americans.Name the best one - the most reliable one - or one right there at the top in your opinion, and we will see.
