Such criticism is part of healthy debate. It is not okay to criticize a person's character or directly insult them, regardless of their position or actions. Derogatory terms such as "loser", "idiot", etc are not permitted unless the context clearly implies that it is not serious.

Kerfuffle Posted February 16, 2018 Author Report Posted February 16, 2018 (edited) Im under the impression that BC and Dog caved to these ways of reducing gun crimes lol Some ways of reducing gun crimes 1-Spend more on mental health 2-Laws to keep guns out of the hands of people with mental illness. 3-Banning assault weapons and weapons with high capacity magazines/clips. 4-Laws to make gun owners more responsible for the guns registered to them 5-The public to form an association to compete with NRA donations to members of congress to secure there vote for gun controls.

-TSS- Posted February 16, 2018 Report Posted February 16, 2018 There have been these school-shootings and other massacres in the USA for years with no regard to which party has their man in the White House so trying to say that it's this or that party's fault is just trying to capitalise politically on the issue.
