So glad I moved out of Buck$ County...growing up it was quite conservative...in mid 20s it was going south (or left) at a rapid rate. Not worth the cost to live there.

As a District Attorney, it's not his job to recommend laws, only to prosecute violations thereof.

Quite honestly, Bucks county is STILL majority Republican/Conservative. However, it's the younger "more hip" Republican generation---who don't really get out and vote and usually don't mind spending zillions of dollars on schools. Right now, Dems are energized and ALL of them are showing up for voting. We had one of the higher R voting for BOS, but the Dems simply were more energized.

With that being said, 9 years and I will move out of the North East. It's too expensive and I can see the writing on the wall.

The Dems are motivated by hatred and greed, but more significantly they abuse the absentee ballot process by signing people up who are perfectly capable of voting on election day, and they fill out the absentee ballot for them and mail it in.

Add in the fact that there's zero effort made (or allowed) to detect fraud, and you're going to get a lot of fraud. The fact that little fraud is detected is due to the lack of detection efforts. You may have radon in your basement, but the absence of any radon detected would be due to you never testing for it, not the absence of radon.

It's like a guy whose teeth hurt, but he never goes to the dentist so nobody tells him he has cavities. The cavities are still there, even if you close your eyes to them.

He feels his "job" is his next political move up the ladder. In his mind the DA job is a stepping stone to higher office, and this is a way to Virtue Signal to potential voters.

Seems that that's what it used to be.

Lately it appears that the position is a political stepping stone.Just look at the stuff that Philly's D.A. has been up to....moves to curry favor with a certain voting block in the city and establish his foundation .Just watch,in a few years he will be running for mayor.

All "anti" arguments are pure emotion. That is why you can't argue back. Laws that are based on emotion, feelings, or opinion, are the first fruits of tyranny.

An argument can be made against anything, and called "common sense". The use of "common sense", "Reasonable people agree", "We all agree", and simular speach is mind control.

You could argue it was a good thing an ar15 was used in FL. Read a news story a few days ago, of a kid that was hit several times. He's not feeling too good still, but alive. If a shotgun was used, he, and allot more than 17 would be dead. However, if you happen to win such an arguent, it will simply be shifted to ban shotguns, or get shotguns added to the list, since they(anti2A) are so emotionally invested. Logic will almost never work against emotion. That is why they want bills pushed thru asap. Don't give the "people" time to think.
