The most amazing thing about the original assault weapons ban of 1994, from a contemporary perspective, is it passed with less than 60 votes in the Senate and was not filibustered. Just a totally alien form of government and politics to what we live with today.

Stoneman Douglas had an armed guard. Pulse had an armed guard. Mandalay Bay had enough armed personnel to occupy France. Fort Hood is a military base.
....If a potential “sicko shooter” knows that a school has a large number of very weapons talented teachers (and others) who will be instantly shooting, the sicko will NEVER attack that school. Cowards won’t go there...problem solved. Must be offensive, defense alone won’t work!

I happen to be a Democrat and a lawyer so let me see if I can help you out. Florida law is subordinate to the United States Constitution (the supreme law of the land, btw) and federal law both of which protect people’s right to vote. And a three point kick is called a field goal.
Imagine if NFL team was trailing 24-22 but in final seconds hits a 3 pt kick to win. Then AFTER game lawyers for losing team get a judge to order rules changed so that last second field goals are only 1 point
Well that’s how democrat lawyers plan to steal

What Trump is saying here is that he modified an important US foreign policy stance toward Israel in service of an end-of-days biblical prophecy credited by Evangelical Christians that features the great battle at Armageddon and ends with the Jewish people in hell.
“And we moved the capital of Israel to Jerusalem. That’s for the Evangelicals. You know, it’s amazing with that: the Evangelicals are more excited by that than Jewish people.”
