Cops are worthless, they don't give a shit about people and are not legally bound to protect people from danger.

Just to give you an idea at what a demonstrable failure America is as a country, here's a website that tracks gun violence across the country.

https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/

Last year alone is just one horrific example, with these stats standing out the most.

2021 Report

Total Gun Deaths: 45,009

- Murders: 20,919

- Suicides: 24,090

Total Mass Shootings: 692

Children Killed (Ages 0-11): 313

Teenagers Killed (Ages 12-17): 1,247

Police Officers Killed or Injured: 371

Shit country continues to be shit.

Then again, this is the same America that allowed 1 million people to die from a pandemic. A bunch of dead kids won't change shit because America doesn't give a f uck about human life.

Old people are literally going to kill this country and take all the young people with them.

You don't need old people you are doing a good job yourself.

You make a stupid statement and get called on it and you call it trolling. There is an old saying if you can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen.

Says the guy who has nothing but lame insults and offers no real thoughts or comments on the topic at hand.

Then again, you're as vapid as they come, so it's not surprising.

What more is there to say other than nothing will change, and there will be another psycho that goes on a shooting rampage later this year.

America is so trash, I swear. Having this many killing sprees annually is unheard of in other first-world countries.

Right wingers love feigning outrage.

Back on topic. What this clearly shows us is that none of our constitutional rights are inalienable. I can't think of a more important right that deciding what happens to your own body, but Republicans made that go away with the stroke of a pen. I only hope that in my lifetime Democrats are able to make the individual right interpretation, which has not been the interpretation of the supreme court for 250+ years, go away for the second amendment, in favor of the proper militia right interpretation.

Don't doubt that it could happen. Anything you do, the other team can do, as well.

Thing is how do we even debate the far right conservatives on the science of an issue?

You can throw all of the studies or all the relevant science organizations in the world at them showing they are objectively wrong on a issue. Everything but the kitchen sink. It doesn't matter, they will type "fake" or "that's your opinion" to 100% fact based study (even if peer reviewed). Without fail.

I guess just start ignoring the posts? But then your left with hanging disinformation. Although I suppose this sub-section is pretty deadish so that doesn't really matter.

Conservative stances on everything are shit because they don't have to be good arguments, because they're not trying to win an argument.

It's about keeping the argument going.

For example:

"You can't convince me global warming is real, you need to show me research and evidence!"

*Decades worth of research and evidence is presented*

"Well, I don't like or trust this evidence, you need to go and find more!"

And we fall for this routine, EVERY single time because we're trying to argue in good faith, and they're weaponizing that against us.

That the real reason they're like this, is because no one's given them a good argument for why they shouldn't be, and that it's our fault for not understanding them or trying hard enough.

In the end, they will never change, because all of these prominent people in the conservative movement in both the political and media sphere have staked their entire career on being against anything progressive or leftist in America. To concede any ground would be career suicide.

Why does America suck so much as a country?

The Supreme Court should be tossed out if it continues to take people's rights away since it clearly doesn't care about half of the population. The institution hasn't had credibility in a long time, but it's officially hit rock bottom.

Then again, so many Americans are fine with turning the country into a backwards cesspool just based on the amount of psychopathic, theocratic fascists in this thread.

Just remember that "pro-life" supporters stop giving a shit about the unborn, when they're born.
