Facts and truth.

You love socialized medicine. It's socialism. My father emigrated from Canada. We have lots of relatives in Canada. Their socialize medicine is not the rosy picture you portray. Think of the VA on a national level where people die waiting for treatment. Canadians get their health-care outside of Canada of they can afford it. That is a fact you conveniently forgot.

Unwarranted assumption Dr. Freud. I pointed out that Canada's system for half the price produces a health outcome, as measured by the World Health Organization, that is better than ours. Those are the facts. Does that make me a socialist? Hardly. Basically Canada is Medicare for all. Is Medicare perfect? No. Should we extend Medicare to all? A question to consider in my book along with is paying twice as much for less care a good thing to continue? I do not think hurling insults will answer those questions.

Hardly the facts. And telling the truth about you, is truth. If you consider that hurling insults - too bad.

I've watched you defend Obama and Obamacare for years - years.

By the same token, Trump advances a conservative agenda and rolls back 8 years of Obama at a steady pace, and you post nothing but hate for Trump. Pretty telling.

Is Trump prefect? No. Is Trump the greatest thing since sliced bread? No. Was Trump my 1st, 2nd, or 3rd choice? No. But considering the alternative - Hillary. Trump is a God-send.

You assume the WHO is honest and reliable. It isn't. The WHO is an agency of the United Nations. The United Nations is an anti-American, pro-socialist organization.

Dude step back. YOU have hijacked this thread regarding Trump and guns to go after me personally and debate whether I am a socialist, a Hillary lover etc etc etc., all because I said we should not believe what Trump said yesterday regarding gun control. None of your rants have ANYTHING to do with Trump and guns. If you want to rant on, start your own thread and rant away.

Lets stay on topic here. This thread should only be in regards to the public, confirmed comments that Donald Trump made stating, step 1, take away the guns. Step 2, due process.

No rants. I comment on your comments. And I don’t think you are a socialist. I said you like and defend socialist medicine. Which is true. Deal with it.

Are there lawyers around who know if you can constitutionally seize guns and then give due process? It was something Trump suggeste yesterday at the meeting with Congressional leaders. I had assumed that forfeiture laws are kind of like that and that there no absolute ban. Is this correct?

Trump is just a bigmouth who will say whatever if it gets him an audience. I'm not sure he fully understands or even cares about what "due process" is or means. The meeting made for some great reality TV, so mission accomplished. I doubt much of anything happens because his main fanbase isn't going to approve of new gun laws.
