  1. “The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand! Repent, and believe in the Gospel.”

    1. @Brandon Thompson … greeting friend..my understanding is such….. being found in appearance as a man, the Lord humbled himself by becoming obedient to death– and as jonas was 3 days in the deep so was the Son of Man in the Grave. There a light shown in the darkness and the darkness did not overcome it, and the Good News is preached even in the grave. In the end EVERY knee shall bow, and every tongue will confess Christ is Lord. Those in heaven, those on earth and those under the earth. Such is the revelation of Jesus Christ. Peace Brandon

    2. @Brandon Thompson …. greetings friend. The scripture in Isaiah, Roman’s, and philippians does read EVERY knee, EVERY tongue, above, on, and under the earth. So yes I interpret Man will be saved and creation set right. Though it appears for the Angel’s that transgressed there is no salvation. Peace Brandon, if you would, share the Good News.

    1. The majority of all American homicides are committed by Democrats with their most loyal voter demographic commiting 52% of them.

      The gun laws may or may not change to your liking but nobody is stopping Democrats from surrendering their guns to the government and law enforcement.

      If every democrat turned in their guns, that’s at least 70% of American gun violence gone.

      Democrats keep pushing for gun laws when really they only need to turn in their guns

    1. When you join a well regulated militia, you can have a gun. In the meantime, you can have a BB gun.

    2. Actually, it refers to a flintlock musket. Good luck trying to reload one of those as the crown beats you into oblivion.

    3. “A WELL REGULATED MILITIA BEING of Necessary … ” begins the 2nd Amendment

      Look it up, illegal gun holder, you are undocumented

    1. Martin Feliciano. with a name like yours I would be a little bit afraid of Trump
      sending ICE after you. don’t worry Dems will fight for you.

    2. Oh look it’s troll martin again. Here’s your comment for rubles to feed your family. Is your effort paying off yet?

  2. “If he [Trump] could be consistent on this” That’s absolutely laughable. He purposefully obfuscates and the media facilitates him in it.

    1. you only looking at the local news . focus on the international. oh that’s right FOXS NEWS I hope they draft all you wannabes. Try fight some one who’s hunting you

    1. @Massimo O’Kissed You’re confusing Trump for the Clinton machine… you know, the family connected to Epstein and most of the corruption in DC.

    2. @Bucky Bazoo , no, I’m really not.
      And I wouldn’t cry about any and all of Epsteins friends dying in prison.

    1. @IsYitzach You’d be surprised how much people murder their close friends. Also shootings don’t happen at gun ranges cause smart people don’t attack trained gun owners, which is why 95% of mass shootings happen in gun free zones.

    2. @Joshua Matthews if I’m remembering correctly, the guy who wrote “American Sniper” (who was a former Navy SEAL) and one of his friends, were shot and killed at a gun range by a third friend.

      So yes, murders at gun ranges do happen, and do happen to highly trained gun owners.

    3. @Scarabswarm and how likely is that to happen? I said it can’t happen because of how extraordinarily unlucky you have to be and how very unlikely it is to happen.

    4. @Joshua Matthews “can’t” is an absolute statement that doesn’t mean “statistically unlikely”. Maybe it’s pedantic, but basing an argument around an assertion that shootings *never* happen at “hardened” targets is basing it on a false premise. If shootings still happen at hardened targets, then turning the whole country into a military camp won’t end shootings.

    1. Matt Renfro If everyone that owned a gun killed ONLY themselves, the world would be a much happier and safe place to be. ☹🔫

    1. @Dr Evilyou know she’s right. That’s why you went to insults instead of explaining your position.

    2. @Amanda Billings I will practice my right to self preservation and possible overtaking of the government as I see fit. It’s not like were literally carrying around chemical weapons or missiles.

  3. Funny I haven’t heard any main stream media talking about the guy in California that just killed 4 with a knife and injured 2 others.

    1. And you won’t because fake news stations and democrats can’t use this incident to bash Trump or threaten harsher “assault knife” laws in an attempt to gain votes.

  4. Every firearm purchase from a FFL licensed dealer has to have a background check first, no exception.

  5. There’s about one hundred village idiots out there protesting their natural born rights
    When politicians pushing hate rhetoric and violence and American citizens are about to be punished for their actions
