We will stop the radical indoctrination of our students and restore patriotic education to our schools. [...]
And we will live by the timeless words of our national motto, In God We Trust. Right?

I don't see how any adult with basic history education doesn't find his propaganda incredibly alarming. And this was just a mini excerpt of the last few sentences.
If you replace the word God with Allah you pretty much have a speech of Erdoğan.
Ok.

1. Pointless to compare or argue as its used to attack the 2nd amendment. Move on if it doesn't make any sense.

2. Abortion is a hot topic. A woman has a right to her mind and body, she can think first and keep her legs closed.

3. Elderly complain about rising prices. This fed into why we have Obamacare, having a good system isn't good enough and it needs to be great, even if that means destroying the good system to try for the great. Remember they said "Free Healthcare" and Americans think about the options here currently. Different systems.

4. Some claim communists and commie thought are found in Universities. Kicking them out would be patriotic to some.

5. Born and raised in the south. There is a church on every street corner (mild exaggeration).

I see you are one of those comparing the US to the middle east. Fun times online these days, eh? Is this all you are worried about.. I mean you are neck deep in another countries inner politics..shut the laptop and step outside. Enjoy the day.

I am disappointed there was zero talk about cannabis legalization.

It's a cash crop both the pot and the hemp.
Decriminalize is the only real option for us. Society isn't ready for legal, at all. Might never be. Leave it under the table where it belongs. Up to 2oz is confiscated and you are let go, some captures donated to (real) cancer patients and the rest is burned. Over 2oz faces state legal issues and possible jail time.

The tax revenue didn't help Colorado. It's also incredibly stupid to go to a legit doctor to acquire a pass to buy just because of "headaches". Keep it off sidewalks, schools etc. Last thing I want to see is a hippy puffing pot on a bench downtown but I don't think a jackboot should kick down the door to your house when you are relaxing after work.

This is the only "recreational" substance I have this position on. The rest can fuck off, my views are not changing for them.
