    Funny, people like you always say that, and yet when it’s suggested that we massively fund mental health care, people like you always balk at that.

      People like me? You literally don’t even know me. And funding health care alone isn’t going to fix the problem we also need economic reform to address the rising wealth disparity in the country.

      Please do not try and lump everyone you encounter into boxes as a means of discrediting them. If you have an issue with anything I’ve said that’s perfectly fine, but do not blame me for the actions of others.

        I have yet to meet someone who believes gun ownership should be totally unrestricted and unregulated who doesn’t also think we shouldn’t have universal healthcare, but you could be the first.

          Having a certain opinion on one topic doesn’t proclude you from having a certain opinion on another topic. You have no duty to adhere to the party lines of political parties you didn’t form.
