Maybe you should stop arguing emotion and go read the 14th Amendment. All kids born here are US citizens. The. End.

Denying birth certificates to American citizens? Hmm, seems legit.

I am going to feel the Bern SO HARD next year.

Not to be over dramatic, but that is nothing short of assault.

Those same men are on record as saying that the constitution should be torn up and rewritten frequently.

They also owned slaves, declared slaves to be 3/5th a person, sure they were smart....250 years ago. How about we stop acting like everything they wrote is exactly as relevant today as it was back then.

This. It is always amazing to me in these mass shootings the contrast between the lives of the victims and the shooters. The victims always have bright futures, people who love them, hobbies, interests, talents, etc. The shooters are always lonely, angry, small-minded, frustrated people.

Despite what some say, the Constitution isn’t sacrosanct and the framers did make some mistakes in writing it. The wording of the 2nd Amendment was one of them, with perilous results.

Yeah, and that made sense in 1789, when the strongest a military could be is an army of a few thousand men, unarmored, firing slow-loading muskets that had terrible aim. There were no automatic weapons, or planes, or bombs, or rockets, or grenades, or tanks, or night-vision goggles, or nuclear weapons. It also made…

It depends on what you mean by “smart”. They were certainly gifted thinkers but they were also unmistakably men of their time. Just about any modern Med school student probably knows more than the smartest Doctor of the 18th century about curing disease. Likewise, we know a ton of shit about governing that they…

Don’t forget the NRA! They work mostly to ensure that gun manufacturers make a profit... So it’s also good for them to rile up the base with this “only a good guy with a gun...” nonsense. Sometimes I doubt they even believe it.

There is a happy medium at home defense and hunting that civilised countries have long ago figured out, but here in ‘Murica, yahoos want to carry assault rifles into Wal-Mart.

Stop. I’m not a gun advocate, but this is the type of response that shuts down any type of discussion just as fast as “BUT IT’S IN THE CONSTITUTION”.

Ban all guns. Make them illegal to posses. Getting caught with one is an automatic jail sentence. This nonsense has gone on for too long. This amendment was authored by people who were okay with slavery. It does not, and should not, translate to 2015 America

I told my family about the neighbor years later, when I was in college. They responded with an uncomfortable silence, and it has never been brought up again. Thankfully, I have good friends that I am able to talk to (many who experienced similar things).

Thank you for sharing your story. When I was 9, and playing softball in little league, a girl on my team accused the coach of touching her inappropriately. Everyone accused the girl of lying, because her family was poor, and her dad was an alcoholic. My parents wouldn’t let me play with her anymore, and I can remember…

I’m so glad you shared your story. I kept a secret about my father for a long time -nothing sexual or physically abusive- but something I could not share with anyone outside the family because our family didn’t “air our dirty laundry.” a few people close to me know now but it’s taking a long time for me to realize…

I don’t tell my story about the old guy on my paper route who would corner me and tongue kiss me. I felt I was brave and strong when I handled it by quitting the paper route. Even when my family called me a quitter and I didn’t have that cash. Even when I saw him with other ten year old girls. Even when he died,…

There’s also no guarantee that the person who interrupted him has her heart in the right place. Especially since she is a Republican and a Sarah Palin supporter. Bernie has done more for civil rights then his detractors ever will

You’re actually defending this?! He walked with MLK for gods sake. There were so many better targets and they pick him? So yeah, Sanders can’t save black people and should no longer try.
