Im amazed people are defending the cashier

Having spent a fair amount of time working in retail, it's pretty easy for me to always side with the person working in retail given how awful it can be dealing with the general public.

If you're absolutely certain that it rung up wrong, go ahead and tell them and don't budge until they correct it. That said, of the half dozen years I spent in retail and of all the dozens of times a customer claimed something rang up the wrong price, it was always because they were just too dumb to read the signs properly and the computer was correct.

Oh and... two simple facts before you claim the Republicans are "selling out" on the bump stock issue:

They were rejected by the ATF as machine guns twice under the Bush administration
They were accepted by the ATF under the Obama administration's instruction

So... if Trump does have these devices reclassified as machine guns, the previous Republican administration rejected them as well so the Republicans are nothing but consistent. The Democrats on the other hand allowed simple sporting rifles to be turned into automatic firing weapons of war and are now bitching about gun control. That's more than slightly hypocritical, but that's all that can be expected of the Democrats, so it's kind of a catch 22. They're reliably hypocritical.

I'm going to reveal three truths that some of you aren't going to like.

You don't have to be the president to be impeached.
You don't have to still be in office to be impeached.
A former Secretary of State can very much be impeached.

You have to hold a high office to be impeached. She can be charged with a crime but not impeached.

Three facts YOU'RE not going to like:

"Being charged with a crime" is LITERALLY the definition of impeachment.
Secretary of State is fourth in line of presidential succession, behind Senate President, House Speaker, and VP. That's a high office.
You don't have to still be in office to be impeached.

Yes, you do. She wouldnt be impeached. She would be charged with treason. She is no longer Secretary of State hence she can no longer be impeached.

This isn't even a partisan issue, both sides agree on this one.

Bush Legacy: Presidents Can Be Impeached After They Leave Office

http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/explainer/2001/02/can_congress_impeach_bill_clinton_again.html

Can a former president be impeached?

Apparently, yes. Obviously a former president would not be subject to removal from office, but scholars say that Article I, Section 3 of the Constitution, which says that impeachment may result in "disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States," could apply.

Good. No need to let emotions dictate policy. Wait until everything has calmed down a bit then talk gun control.

Or... We wait until people calm down, and then do nothing. Like we always do. Enough is enough. Children are dead. Surely thats an important enough of a problem that we address immediately, whether it be gun control or some other plan.

At the risk of sounding cold... no, it's not. Telling thirty million people to hand over their weapons because one psychopath slipped by the FBI isn't a rational course of action. You're letting emotions dictate the course of action and that's NEVER a good plan.

wasn't this tried after the Vegas shooting? whatever happened to that?

What happened to that is that two of the biggest gun grabbers, Nancy Pelosi and Diane Feinstein, got caught on camera admitting, respectively, that gun control WAS a slippery slope and that no laws would have stopped the Las Vegas shooting. With no avenue for further gun control after that, coverage of the event fell off the radar.

Teachers in May: "You guys have NO IDEA how HARD our job is!"
Teachers in June: "Woo, off for ten weeks!"

You do realize that most teachers have a 2nd job and work during that period, not to mention they still have to plan and create a curriculum for the next year during this time.

Must be nice to get a full time salary for a part time job and then have two and a half months in the summer to do side work.

If a claim is made, I want to see proof of it one way or another. I operate on facts, not feelings.

It's very, very easy to verify whether these kids are students at that school or not, and I'd like to see actual evidence.

i mean im not about to generalize gun owners as crazy gun nuts, i just don't think people should own firearms. if they absolutely must, i dont think they should be allowed semi automatic or automatic weapons

Automatic weapons require intense background checks and are outrageously expensive. An actual select fire AR-15 will run you at least $15,000 and take months of paperwork and red tape.

should be impossible imo

The number of people killed using class 3 firearms last year is... none. They're collector pieces stowed away in gun safes.

It's always interesting seeing people who are so scared of things that aren't dangerous but have no qualms eating fast food or driving cars when heart disease and MVA deaths FAR outnumber rifle deaths.

Slippery slope isn't a fallacy. It literally happens. It's already happening.

Nancy Pelosi directly confirmed that it's not a fallacy in this case. "I certainly hope so" were her exact words.

The government should give every citizen 8 pistols, 3 rifles, a sack of hand grenades, 2 shotguns, a silencer, a hefty supply of ammo for everything and 1 rocket launcher. That would be best imo

Can I trade the 8 pistols for 3 more rifles and two more suppressors?

No substitutions, but all citizens are allowed to trade amongst themselves.

why even have laws against violence and murder then

it's

Because murder and violence are crimes with victims. You want to take guns away from people who haven't done anything wrong. You want to create a victimless crime.

Because a Gun primary design is to kill or inflict damage to something.

A gun is designed to propel a projectile down a barrel. What it's used for is completely up to the operator. A truck is designed to transport a payload, but what it's actually used for is also completely up to the operator.
