When I read it I looked at your Location: North Dakota.

It was one of those things where accelerationism wasn't a first choice. Both parties have used the tactic. But not that awesome quote.

I only trust news from authoritative sources like Tim Pool, Subverse or Styxhexenhammer.

Oregon Portland and the East side of Eugene around the Universities is progressive. But Bend and Redmond are getting a lot of dry-land Californians so that may be skewing the result everywhere else.

This probably has no interest, but it roughly represents the nation as a whole; with large cities and coastal areas left leaning, and everywhere else right.

BTW, this is the shape of Oregon

I recently read about certain parts of Oregon with extremely low rates of vaccines.

Arizona democrats are up in arms because the head of the Arizona republican party said they would stop a democrat candidate "Dead in his tracks. I looked at five major dictionaries and each described that expression as a normal term indicating surprise, etc. Claiming this means "We are going to murder him" is one of the most absurd things that I have heard lately and I spend a great amount of time on the Internet. Arizona GOP boss: Stop Senate candidate ‘dead in his tracks’

Yes I am in North Dakota, and have been my whole life. I take an interest in politics nation wide though, as our legislature seems to want to copy everyone else.

I believe that we have discussed that there is not one consistent definition for black rifles.

FBI. Four or more shot.

No, it’s not complicated. Not subject to vagaries of place or extraneous.

A new ABC poll shows roughly 3/4 of Americans believe that better mental health care would prevent mass killings more than new gum laws that won't be enforced.
Last year the same question netted 77%.

I cannot find FBI statistics for other countries, just this article which keeps saying it is an apples-to-oranges comparison: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...her-countries/

Frankly I don't care about the 1:30 and follow up 4 am shooting in Chicago 2 weeks ago that fit the more than 4 injured, those people are up to no good and should be excluded from the US "mass" shooting statistics. As should be when a woman or man kills their spouse and kids via firearm. Those are not the random mass shooting that make the news, but are counted in the statistics.
