The right to bear arms, was not for hunting, it was to protect us from an illegal government.

They didn't cover female privilege over males.

You don't care about the tax code? You want healthcare for all? Where does the money come from? I don't understand how that works.

[tinadiggs]

When it all boils down we all have issues whether your White, Black, Red or Yellow.

[raymondwaynenash]

Shameful. Trying to shame people into not voting republican

[lindacianchetti]

They didn’t treat Bill Cosby like that though...

[RadagastBrown]

Just because you worked two jobs doesn't mean we haven't had 300 years of systemic racism.

The BEST two woman to speak were FABULOUS! WTG to the young AMERICAN from Puerto Rico and the slightly older woman who spoke just before her!

As a women this is disgusting. Vote on FACTS, not emotion! In a court of law you have to have something called "EVIDENCE ", this case would have not gone to court! ! If these women had been falsely accused as he was, they wouldn't be angry? What if it was their son ? Their husband? Yeah, I am so sure they would be sympathetic to the person who accused their husband or son of a sex crime from 30 yrs ago w/no evidence! ! If some of these women really had brains they would do their own research! ! Oh as for suicides, so you think bc they dont havea gun they won't find another way? Guess we need to bann rope/ cloth so people don't hang themselves! ! Again logic is key !! Read Thomas Sowell, educate yourself! !

Always remember. This is just ENTERTAINMENT.

I'm surprised they didn't call the cops on him for being a suspicious black guy in a room full of white cackling hens

Megan hit that "No ma'am" go on SIS!!! 👊🏾

Let's do some math using CDC numbers.
32, 000 gun deaths last year
-60% are suicide - 19, 200
-3% are accidents - 960
-4% are justified - 1, 280 (thousands of instances of firearm self defense occur annually, most go unreported)
-33% are homicides - 10, 560
-but 80% of homicides are gang related - 8, 448

That leaves 1, 712 people in a country with a population of 325 million people.
You have a 0.00003% chance of death by a firearm, but if you're not part of a gang, don't commit a crime, or don't plan on committing suicide,
you actually have a chance of death by a firearm in this country.
Guns are not the problem.

I'm so happy the former mayor said the truth about how blacks being disbarred from owning land.

[isabellaramirez]

This is ridiculous white women have so much privilege and and trying to show “their take” is ridiculous, we have nothing to worry about, Me being a half white and half Mexican individual know that we such a big platform to help women of color and stop the discrimination against women of color but instead we push it to the side because women love putting other women down not saying all women like to do that but it’s a fact

[lindacianchetti]

Get smart, sisters!
