    straw man
    /ˌstrô ˈman/
    noun
    noun: strawman
    1.
    an intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat than an opponent's real argument.
    wasn't a strawman. i wasnt claiming that it was actually somebody's position and trying to defeat it. it was hyperbole for comedic effect.

    You claimed it was my position and wanted me to argue against it. I thwarted it. You lost. Sorry this is happening to you.

    Authoritarian Beto wants to take away your guns.

    I was assured nobody was trying to do this. It's amazing how wrong leftists are and when you say something about the future "muh slippery slope".

    City of Uvalde bout to get sued
    If it goes to SCOTUS, in 2005, SCOTUS already ruled that citizens are not en led to protection by law enforcement.

    Legally, the 19 "hallway monitors" were not obligated to stop the shooter.

    I want to keep my guns but I agree with him from a strategic standpoint. Anyone serious about curbing gun crime has to curb gun ownership. It won't curb crime, but it will curb gun related crime. All these placebo suggestions like Biden wanting to ban 9mm ammo production after an event where 5.56 was used is really really ing worthless. I don't have to hope they succeed but I hope they try. It's encouraging to see American politicians courageous enough with career sacrifice to do what they feel needs to be done. This is really why many Americans voted for Trump in 2016, to get done what they wanted to get done. If they just wanted someone to be a name on a congressional voting record, that can be anyone more concerned about their career in politics than in doing what needs to be done.

    First they claim slippery slope.
    Then they deny something is happening.
    And then they openly support the thing that is happening.

    First its "oops wrong hole" then it's "just let me put the tip in" then it's "just let me get the head in" and next thing you know you're meeting Zed.

    I've been consistent about grabbing assault rifles the whole way. Common sense regulation of everything else would save a lot of lives, I'm for that too. The danger to public health posed by firearms needs to be curbed.

    Beto wants a lot of things, but he won't be able to get all of them. Props to him for addressing this head on though, instead of curling in fetal position until the next shootout.

    None of this can survive if it's illegal. If you don't trust our justice system, then that's a different problem that has nothing to do with the left or right...

    The Uvalde Police Department and the Uvalde Independent School District police force are no longer cooperating with the Texas Department of Public Safety's investigation into the massacre at Robb Elementary School and the state's review of the law enforcement response, multiple law enforcement sources tell ABC News.

    A spokesman for Texas DPS, which is running the state's investigations, declined to comment.
    -----------------------------
    According to sources, the decision to stop cooperating occurred soon after the director of DPS, Col. Steven McCraw, held a news conference Friday during which he said the delayed police entry into the classroom was "the wrong decision" and contrary to protocol.

    DPS won't cover their asses. There's a nonzero chance Uvalde PD ends up disbanded.

    Trying to limit legal liability and PR damage might be two rationales. If indeed they're not cooperating. If it's just Arredondo stonewalling that makes sense too.
