It is the Nation I born in, lived in, served here, and abroad.
Once I felt pride now I feel shame. This not the nation members of my family fought for and or died for. It has become cruel, piety, and vindictive to the foreigner and @threadreaderapp unroll
our own. My nation has become a place to kill the dreamer's dream, to bury a man debt and debt is slavery.
We have seest to lead but how can anyone lead when there is no light and our leaders have into practice the very things that our enemies
do and have done, the things of the totalitarian rulers use.
Shame on us for not seeing the threat and stopping it and shame on those in power who allowed it and damn those who supported it.
The good news is this America will survive this and we will rise again. Hopefully wiser and smarter this, taking steps to make sure this nightmare will not occur again and remember what sort of people ought to be. @threadreaderapp unroll

There is only one reason to have high-capacity magazines and that is if we are at war and the enemy is in our front yard. Further, we do not need fully automatic weapons. The military with regards to rifles uses semi-auto over 97% @threadreaderapp UNROLL
of the time, auto burns too much ammunition. Semi-automatic weapons have been used by civilians for over a 100 years. The first mass shooting I member were done by people with bolt action rifles acting as snipers and illegally obtained weapons.
Now we have to with AR-15 type weapons that use the .223 AKA 5.56mm X 45mm. these shells fire a lite weight high-velocity bullet that has radically tumbles in the body and deflects easily and produce a low recoil for the shooter.
Biden Announces Gun Control Executive Actions, Says Second Amendment Not ‘Absolute’ news.yahoo.com/biden-announce… via @Yahoo
These executive orders will not address gun violence in fact we need to address violence in the nation as a whole. People are the @threadreaderapp unroll
problem. Do people really think that taking guns away will stop violence? It will not. What would come next, bows and arrows, spears, axes, swords, knives, clubs, rocks, or maybe even our hands? We have an angry nation that is filled with hate, stress, and uncertainty.
You can not stop violence by taking weapons you have to address the real problem. We have mental health issues and that needs to be addressed vigorously and it is the pink elephant in the room.
1/9 This is flagrant LIE you demon spawn!! You Godless TRUMP REPUBLICANS have done more harm to the Nation and the US Constitution than I dreamed was possible. I am a former Republican 1. You do not defend the Constitution you abuse it. @threadreaderapp unroll
2/9 2. Globalism you keep giving tax breaks and benefits to those who have left our economy in shambles and taken jobs overseas at 10 cents an hour. 3. We do not need a WALL to protect our border we have a desert. 4. There has never been open immigration in my lifetime
3/9 or my dead parent's lifetime. 5. NO ONE WANT A WEAK MILITARY and people do not want an abusive Police Force, 6. It has been a long time since Republicans have given a damn about equal rights, in fact, evidence suggests otherwise. 7. Your comments about Protest
1st we know Trump (w/19K+ lies) and his Admin lie about most things, so it is easy to figure they are lying about when they knew about the Russian bounty on US and Allied Troops. We have to face the fact that we have a @threadreaderapp unroll
weak and corrupt President and Admin. As for what to do about this? Burn the Taliban poppy fields, hunt down anyone involved in this bounty program tried and executed assuming they are guilty.
Put Russia on an enemies list and accept the fact that we are in a de-facto war with Russia. Russia has tampered with our elections, actively interfered in US interest and security with the assistance of Trump, Trump's Administration, and his cronies.
