Maine's Gun Laws Allowed a MADMAN to Own a GUN and He Murdered 18 People... OUTLAW GUNS, COLLECT GUNS, MELT GUNS. It's Not Complicated.

Did You Know that Melted Guns can be Recycled to Build Useful Products? Cars, Washing Machines Air Conditioners and Refrigerators are all made out of Metal...

Currently People in Foreign Countries Mine Metal and Sell it to the USA... We Have an IMMENSE SUPPLY Of American Metal: GUNS! We Could Simply Outlaw Guns, Collect Guns and Melt Guns... That Would SAVE LIVES and Improve Our Import/Export Balance of Payments... DUH!

FUND THE POLICE. I'm Totally in Favor
of Police Arresting REAL CRIMINALS.
For Example:
TREASON, Insurrection, Murder, Rape, Fraud,
Income Tax Evasion, Robbery, Kidnapping,
Crazy People with GUNS, muggers, arson,
wife beaters, BRIBERY of Politicians and
Seditious Conspiracy.

People That DO EVIL Really Need to Be Put
Behind Bars... For Example: Donald Trump...
#LockHimUP #ArrestTrump
and we ought to release all Cannabis Prisoners.
We'll need the Jail Cells to House Crazy

Christian Suicide Cults - #RUNAWAY From These People... Jonestown, Waco, Heaven's Gate... The Child Molester Catholic Priests are Evil TOO! #RUNAWAY --- I've Never Heard of an Atheist Suicide Cult... Makes Me Wonder...

Could it Be That Jesus is NOT the One True God? 

The Peoples Temple Agricultural Project, better known by its informal name "Jonestown", was a remote settlement in Guyana established by the Peoples Temple, a US-based cult under the leadership of Jim Jones. Jonestown became internationally infamous when, on November 18, 1978, a total of 909^[1][2] people died at the settlement, at the nearby airstrip in Port Kaituma, and at a Temple-run building in Georgetown, Guyana's capital city. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonestown

The Waco siege, also known as the Waco massacre,^[6][7][8][9] was the siege by U.S. federal government and Texas state law enforcement officials of a compound belonging to the religious cult known as the Branch Davidians between February 28 and April 19, 1993.^[10] The Branch Davidians, led by David Koresh, were headquartered at Mount Carmel Center ranch in the community of Axtell, Texas.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waco_siege

Heaven's Gate was an American new religious movement (often described as a cult) whose members committed mass suicide in 1997. It was founded in 1974 and led by Bonnie Nettles (1927–1985) and Marshall Applewhite (1931–1997)

Another Christian Cult... The death toll at a ranch in Kenya owned by a pastor who is accused of leading a religious cult and ordering his followers to starve themselves in order to “meet Jesus” has reached 90... "The Good News International church" Was Not Such Good News After All!

Robert Reich: “Tucker Carlson might be out at Fox News, but if you're counting on the network to suddenly start telling the truth, don't hold your breath.”

“As long as there’s money to be made by selling lies, weaponizing Trump's viciousness, and peddling conspiracies, Fox News will continue to do it.”

“Profiting off of dangerous lies has become a big business in America.”

“It’s one of the core challenges to the future of democracy.”

ChatGPT replies:

Does God exist?

Answer:

The question of whether or not God exists is a deeply philosophical and theological one that has been debated for centuries. As an AI language model, I do not have personal beliefs or opinions, but I can provide a neutral perspective on this topic.

Beliefs about the existence of God are diverse and vary greatly among different cultures, religions, and individuals. Some people believe in the existence of one or more gods or divine beings, while others do not. The debate about the existence of God centers on the nature of evidence, reason, and faith. Some arguments for the existence of God include the design argument, the cosmological argument, and the moral argument, while arguments against the existence of God include the problem of evil and the argument from the lack of evidence.

Ultimately, whether or not God exists is a matter of personal belief and interpretation of available evidence, and different people may arrive at different conclusions on this topic.

'One of the first conditions of happiness is that the link between man and Nature should not be broken.' Leo Tolstoy.

When all this with the climate and ecological crisis is over, this will be how the survivors who have come out of the Earth's Great Tribulation will work to restore their broken links and connections to Mother Earth. And once that ancient lost link between humanity and Mother Nature is restored, it will not be broken again. For some of you here, you will witness this great restoration between ourselves, the Earth and all life on this planet. For those of you who are especially fortunate and blessed, you will be part of this restoration. You will help educate and guide humanity into forging a new peace treaty and covenant with the planet.

Most, however, will remain in darkness and self-serving human egotism and will be swept away with the tides of change without ever realizing or understanding the crimes they have committed against the Mother of all Life.

 Family Separation and Detention... 

https://www.americanbar.org/advocacy/governmental_legislative_work/priorities_policy/immigration/familyseparation/

In April 2018, Attorney General Sessions announced a “zero tolerance” policy under which the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will refer all migrants who enter the U.S. without authorization to the Department of Justice (DOJ) for criminal prosecution. This policy expands “Operation Streamline,” a program which began in 2005.

As a result of the zero tolerance policy, the government separated more than 2000 children from their parents at the border during the period of mid-April to June.  Since children cannot be held in criminal detention, the children are designated as “unaccompanied alien children” and placed in the custody of the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR).  ORR places the children in shelters until they are released to a family member, guardian, or foster family.

Family detention is not the answer to family separation. It's a failure and a disgrace. Asylum seekers are fleeing chilling violence and threats. They deserve help, not inhumane, sometimes terrifying treatment at family detention centers.

and on FaceBorg, SG Asked: 

WHY IS fox news Allowed To lie, Deceive, and Promote Murder???

and JB Said: 

All news outlets are allowed to lie according to the 1996 Telecommunications Act (Media Deregulation Act) Bill Clinton signed into law. That saw the birth of Fox News and all other corporate news channel’s becoming Advertising Arms of Corporate Interests rather than Objective News Providers.

CNN, MSNBC, Fox, etc all lie to promote their corporate interests of choice.

and I Replied:

It's entertainment... NOT NEWS... Fiction Shows often have Strange Events - Witchcraft - REDRUM - Kidnapping etc etc etc

How in the world can nuclear power reactors be considered clean and safe sources of electricity?

.

For the first time in history, six nuclear reactors and thirty-seven years’ worth of high-level nuclear waste are in the middle of a battlefield in an active war zone—one artillery shell, on site or off, could interrupt the control and cooling of the operational reactor, or the cooling of the waste in storage, leading to a catastrophic release of radiation that could spread throughout the Northern Hemisphere. https://progressive.org/magazine/its-all-about-the-bomb-meyer/

And I Replied:

Uranium Fission Reactors are a Great way to make Plutonium used to make the Atom Bomb. Thorium does not do that.

A Vote for Trump is a Vote for Four More Years of Total Failure - Everybody Says that Trump was the Worst President Ever... His Big Accomplishments Were the Tax Cuts for the Rich Law, the Help Crazy People Buy Guns Law. H.J. RES 40 and The Trade War With China... Which Hurt American Farmers and Consumers but Helped China get Great Grain Deals with Russia... All Three Actions Made America Worse... and While it is True That He was a Disaster... Some Say George Bush the Son was Worse! After all, He Allowed 9/11 to Happen and then Started TWO Crazy Wars... Where Millions Died for No Reason... Remember: Neither Iraq or Afghanistan had anything to do with The Events of 9/11... That was a Saudi Arabian Action... Osama bin Laden Was a Saudi and 14 out of 19 Hijackers were Saudis...George Bush the Son: "OOPS, I BLEW UP THE WRONG COUNTRY!"

and on FaceBorg SG Said:

So, I went to church today...

It was great! I'm still agnostic right now, but it was nice to be able to spend a Sunday in Church hearing the teachings and prayers and songs and not feeling like I didn't belong or was in a hostile environment. I was able to listen and interpret things in my own way. I never, ever thought I could do that.

I mean, this is a BIG church in the city center with the rotunda, steeple, bell, organs, the whole nine yards, and yet they hoisted a pride flag, the pastor spoke up against the fascist forces that attacked Old Nick's Pub in October, they had pronoun pins that people as old as 80, 90 years old gleefully wore, and they even had a MLK Jr painting on the whole backside.

That's what more churches should aspire to.

I honestly hope to be able to share more experiences like that in other religious places as well. I'm very interested in religion. I'm not against atheism, but I'm not against religion. Religion has its place (which is always outside of government). It can fill you with hope, joy and determination if you let it. However, religion is inaccessible to a lot of folks because it hasn't progressed everywhere. Hopefully God or whatever divinity or spirituality the people of the world have will lead them to see how we've done things wrong in the past, how to raise their level of consciousness in the present and how to manifest peace and justice in the world into the future.

Good for you! Decades ago I joined in a church so that I could sing in the choir. I loved their acceptance of LBTQ people. Our choir conductor was a woman with a female partner, top notch choir too. Our organist was an openly gay man who married his female wife before he understood that his sexual preference was for men and stayed married because he loved his wife and they had some kind of mutual understanding. I felt that church accepted people for who they are and also openly respected other religions. The pastor would preach from the Bible and also bring up what the Buddha had to say about the same thing. The woman’s group incorporated some nice Wicca rituals at times. It was a good group of people. I don’t consider myself a Christian but like it when a church follows the words of Jesus which are about love,acceptance and forgiveness.
