I don’t blame Connecticut at all. Many states, actually most, have legalized medical or recreational cannabis. The DOJ has a long-standing policy that they won’t interfere with states for this.

The ATF has a 10+ year long-standing policy that purchasing or possessing a firearm as a marijuana user is not allowed. I think both rules are pretty clear.

Keystone pipeline was to Mexico and wasnt feeding America. The amount of crude was insignificant and of poor quality.

Nobody said Trump was responsible for covid, only for his hiding it and horribly incompetent management of the pandemic.

You know the pandemic that Trump called the China Flu.

Russias attempt to infiltrate the republican party and groom Trump himself starting in the 1980's is well documented and is not a conspiracy theory.

The Steele document was background info hired by Republican opposition. Nobody cares about Trumps golden showers with hookers in a Moscow hotel. The dossier came with a caveat that it was unconfirmed hearsay.

The Steele dossier is irrelevant to Trump's collusion with Putin, which is still on going. Try the Mueller report.

Most recently the head of the NY office of the FBI was arrested for selling info to Russia. The infiltration is deep.

The fact is Connecticut's government just wants to do everything it can to prevent any type of gun ownership.

Connecticut: Weed is illegal federally, but we will allow dispensaries to open and sell it recreationally

Also Connecticut: Owning guns and using weed is illegal we must enforce these laws.

It's already one of the most expensive states to obtain a permit, which must be held to purchase any firearm or ammunition. Also the state law says that police departments have 60 days to approve or deny a permit application but multiple governors and attorney generals have shown no interest in enforcing this law on police departments. Some process the paperwork promptly and you have your permit in 2 weeks. Some sit on it for 6 months or longer.

Trump lost by 7 million votes, lost the Senate and lost the House. He also lost all but one of his legal challenges to the election.

Guess he got tired of winning.

This weekend at CPAC he gave a senile babbling incoherent rambling whiny speech. The sad old man with dementia thinks hes going to be president again.

The BLM movement was based on the premise of equal rights and the statistically excessive number of police executions of black people, mostly male.

Philando Castile was shot and killed for trying to show his pistol permit after being stopped.

Dylan Roof, who randomly executed congregants at an AME church was taken into custody peacefully and taken to Burger King because he was hungry.

To sum, BLM protested a real problem. Jan 6 insurrectionists protested a made up problem.
