    That's exactly what I'm saying. A plane hitting the tower would NOT make it pancake into itself. So bottom line, it's very convenient of you to TRUST the government on THIS issue but no other one. I don't.

    And we should trust you on the issue because you are the foremost knowledgeable...

    So what is your proposal? Take guns away from Aspergers and Autistics? Deny them their "constitutional right? So it's ok to deny a certain sect of our population (and I really don't know why I'm debating with the guy who wants to blame Black people...) access to firearms?

    Well, I mean technically we already deny firearms to people who have been convicted of a felony or domestic violence.

    Logic dictates a tower to fall sideways... Not implode like a controlled demolition. Also, what about Building 7??? You know the one that imploded WITHOUT being hit by a plane?

    Typical media jumps on first version, which is more sensational than the other. Those 100 other reports are from the same early source - Boylan's dad who wasnt even there. When Boylan was actually interviewed she said he asks what their religion was, not whether they were Christian. Same thing happened at Columbine. Read the book columbine and you will see how a false narrative developed.

    Edit: And I should add, that in my opinion, it is really inconclusive what happened. In such a traumatic situation, what's remembered and how it is remembered is often blurred. Often people try to make sense of a senseless crime (when by definition it is senseless) and if it helps people to conclude that the shooter was on a mission to kill Christians, who am I to tell them that they can't believe that. However, after reading Columbine, I really don't put a lot of credence into one person's interpretation of what happened that day even if the media runs with it and it becomes the accepted version by most because of its repetitive telling. Here is another link discussing the dispute in versions.

    BECAUSE I'M USUALLY RIGHT.

    So...you wouldn't deny firearm access to people with diagnosed mental health issues?

    And I said what my proposal was, the most important thing to do is to recognize that people that are autistic and that have aspergers may have these tendencies and their parents need to not ignore them.

    I do know. The writings and philosophy of socialists are well documented, as are their deeds.

    During an interview on CNN's "State of the Union," Sanders touted his lifetime voting record of D-minus with the NRA.

    You want to deceive me into thinking he has a much better record on guns?

    It is argued his only support for gun is because Vermont citizens will not support anyone that wants gun control. This is further proof that he is controlled by political agendas like everyone else in DC

    Sometimes I really wonder about you, Mags. You complain that he's doing what the people who elected him want. How is that bad?
    Yes, all politicians are involved in politics. By definition. Do you think your boy Trump does not have a political agenda? He does. He's a politician now. Putting different people in office does not get rid of the politics.

    He absolutely does have a political agenda, but outwardly speaks that agenda, regardless if it's popular or not. Bernie wants gun control, but chooses not to push that agenda in Vermont because he won't get voted. Notice the difference?

    So, you are in favor then of Obama 'outwardly speaking' his agenda on gun control?

    I thought you've been whining about that.

    He's already done "thank God". We only have to endure one more year of his madness and he's gone. He doesn't have to worry about being elected any longer, so he can shove his agenda down our throats.

    Will we need to put you on suicide watch when Trump flames out?

    He seems to speak outwardly about banning certain types of speech, too.

    I can think of at least two examples. Maybe you can, too.

    Nope, can't think of any, not that I'm going too try to hard. I'll bite, what do you have in mind?
