Biden did okay with the speech, which was really about rallying the base for the midterms. He seems to be finding his groove now that he's finally left his abusive relationship with the Republican party, one based on post-Watergate 1970s style bipartisanship rather than slash and burn Trump fascism.
But he's a dim bulb Wall Street Dem who did mostly bad things for the country as a legislator (deregulating banks, supporting every stupid war he could, sucking health insurance/big pharma dick, greasing the rails for SCOTUS Judge Clarence Thomas, etc). And now he's half-senile. We need a fearless, fully-cognizant earthshaker to lead the world out of the current mess and he ain't it.
>>19989Home invasions in the suburbs are really, really rare — that's why they get Wiki pages when they happen. In fact it's more likely your kid will find your gun and top themselves accidentally, rather than you living out your Master Protector jerkoff fantasy. Imagine having time to find and load a gun with three armed criminals barging through the door, or kill them once you do with your 25 hours of paper target practice. You have about 10,000x the chance of being killed in a car accident on the way to Target, but unfortunately this kind of craven illogic is what led to the gun crisis we suffer.
That said, I've all but given up becuase it's way too late to solve it, what with all the weapons already out there. To get gun deaths down to a rational level with the rest of the developed world there would have to be a bottom-up cultural shift, and that ain't gonna happen.
