[Nick Young]

Bernie is not the best candidate.

Kasich and Webb are.

[Draz]

Dam Bernie just mauled that guy

[Nick Young]

CNN trying to stack this debate with these audience plants:lol

[Nick Young]

Bernie is murdering Clinton. It doesn't matter.

This race is over.

The Superdelegates have rigged this.


Clinton is going to have Bernie assassinated if she ever comes in to power.

She's giving him the murder stare right now.

[Draz]

Bernie getting dirty with it I like

[Draz]

God dam this getting hot

[Nick Young]

:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

[Jameerthefear]

:lebronamazed:

[Draz]

Holy FCK this is getting NASTY holy SHIT

[Nick Young]

what a time to be alive

[Draz]

Team Bernie

[Nick Young]

Hillary's only come back is lying and making things up.

Bernie fights back with facts.


Unfortunately, it doesn't matter.

[Draz]

That's right
Fck the billionaires

God dammm

[Draz]

Hillary has this look my ex has when she hates me

She's going to kill Bernie with her claws after this

[Nick Young]

Poor Bernie is going to have a heart attack on stage. He can barely handle all of this bullshit coming out of Clinton

[DonDadda59]

Dam Bernie just mauled that guy

But what is his d*ck game like? That's all America really wants to know.

[Draz]

I think bernie just lost his VP spot

Clinton gonna treat him like an ex bf

[Jameerthefear]

bernie goin in

[Nick Young]

I think bernie just lost his VP spot

Clinton gonna treat him like an ex bf
he never had a VP spot.

[Draz]

Bernie won this debate so far

But he can't beat Trump one on one

[Nick Young]

Hillary smug as ****. She knows the fix is already in.

[CJ Mustard]

Bernie calling out the Democratic Party. This man is truly the realest to ever do it. Won't comprise his integrity for big corporations or party politics. :bowdown:

[Draz]

Wonder how Bill feeling about Bernie giving his women the shloong

[DonDadda59]

Bernie won this debate so far

But he can't beat Trump one on one

Bern is massacring Drumpf in all the National polls taken so far. Double digit leads every time.

But the Republicans are shitting their pants with Hillary, they think Bernie is the cake walk

[DonDadda59]

But the Republicans are shitting their pants with Hillary, they think Bernie is the cake walk

The Republicans are running a Chinese fire drill right now. Nothing but chaos on their side. Nobody knows nothing.

[Draz]

That smile Hillary has.. MY GOD, it's the smile you get when your girl wants to be dogged as hard as possible

I'm feeling a sex scandal between these two

[Draz]

God dam bernie a nice old man, the kind you hold the door open for

I can trust this goy

[FillJackson]

I think bernie just lost his VP spot

No chance in hell for Bernie ever to be VP even before you get into politics or personality. You wouldn't pick a 74 year old from a very small New England state. It just wouldn't help you.

Obama as a younger candidate could pick a Biden and get balance from it. Clinton wouldn't get an advantage.

More importantly, Bernie only joined the Democratic Party last year.

[DonDadda59]

Finally, they address the Al Craqa problem in America.

[Jameerthefear]

it's funny how much tougher the questions are on the dem debate. no ****ing softball questions like the republican debate

[Jameerthefear]

this is gonna be a tough question for bernie

[Nick Young]

Bernie calling out the Democratic Party. This man is truly the realest to ever do it. Won't comprise his integrity for big corporations or party politics. :bowdown:
He shot himself in the foot there. The party leaders are going to purge him.

[DonDadda59]

Big d*ck Bern's hands are too large, too powerful. Not an issue. So they talk about actual National issues.


He shot himself in the foot there. The party leaders are going to purge him.

I think Bern wasn't even officially a Democrat until last year. The party doesn't trust him. Hence the Super Delegates burying him.

Bernie probably would beat the Republicans, but even with the general election polls like they are now, he would not be a general election candidate than Clinton. In fact, there are a Republican super-pacs running pro-Bernie ads against Clinton because they would prefer to face him in the general. The larges population doesn't know that much about him yet and if he became the nominee they would unload on him.

They are going to want to unload on Clinton too, but it would be old news with most of the country already having made up their minds. They would get to define Bernie.

[Draz]

Medical records prove Bernie doesn't use viagra at age 74

[Draz]

it's funny how much tougher the questions are on the dem debate. no ****ing softball questions like the republican debate
Agreed. It's good training for them. While Republicans are worried about building walls and shouting about irrelevant shit.

[Nick Young]

Medical records prove Bernie doesn't use viagra at age 74
Bernie is going to cement his loss with this response. The media and Clinton's people (o wait, they da same, whoops) are going to take him to town on this response.

[Nick Young]

I think Bern wasn't even officially a Democrat until last year. The party doesn't trust him. Hence the Super Delegates burying him.
Politiicians gonna play politics. Been this way since the days of ancient Mesopotamia sadly.

[Draz]

Why CAN'T we have fingerprint scanners on guns tho..

Apple starts making guns.. Unlock the gun within 0.3 of a second.

Foh.

[Nick Young]

Appeals to emotion, logical fallacy, straw manning, indirectly blaming Bernie for Sandie Hook, Clinton going to town with the dirt

[Jameerthefear]

hillary is shilling so hard

[DonDadda59]

Why CAN'T we have fingerprint scanners on guns tho..

Apple starts making guns.. Unlock the gun within 0.3 of a second.

Foh.

They already have the technology. The NRA is spending tons of money to kill it.

[Draz]

Lol 1 and 3..

[shlver]

Hillary reaching for emotional gambits while Sanders stays reasonable and logical.

[Draz]

They already have the technology. The NRA is spending tons of money to kill it.
Not that 0.3 of a second is a long time.. It also gives you enough time to aim for proper target and not "react"

It makes sense. The technology is there. But there's still a lot of guns out there without the technology.

[Draz]

God dam Hillary don't like 1 in 3 blacks

[Jameerthefear]

They already have the technology. The NRA is spending tons of money to kill it.
shit's gonna be like Psycho Pass

[Draz]

We need to take all the blacks out of jail and hire them as cashiers at McDonald's


These lines getting longer

[Draz]

Bernie got all the blacks votes right there from here on out

"white man gets arrested trying to desegregate"

God dam you blacks want a second Obama or what

[Jameerthefear]

not enough people watch this for it to matter too much :(

[dkmwise]

Damn crowd there seems to have never heard of the 2nd amendment

[Jameerthefear]

i honestly think ALL debates should be free and on network television

[dkmwise]

Liability on gun manufacturers? Are they supposed to make guns that don't hurt people?

[Jameerthefear]

Damn crowd there seems to have never heard of the 2nd amendment
shillary was up to no good

[DonDadda59]

"white man gets arrested trying to desegregate"

God dam you blacks want a second Obama or what

The craziest thing about the Dem primaries/caucuses has been Hillary outright massacring Bern with the Black vote in the South. Sanders easily wins the majority White States in the North/East. I know the Clintons have long-standing ties with Southern States like SC, Arkansas, etc but she murked him like 86-14 in one poll. :biggums:

[Draz]

These questions seem a million times better than what the Republicans got.

Insane.. Makes me wonder wtf are they really debating for

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Shillary definitely seems apropos. Saying anything and everything to get votes.

Could this mean the same 1 in 3 blacks refuse to be helped because of their pride? You tryna say the blacks WANT to remain in jail? Are you saying the blacks prefer the adrenaline rush smoking their weed?

Isn't is both :confusedshrug:

That's a Republican thing.. That's why they're shitting bricks when it comes to her :roll:

I hate Trump but I would love to see him go after her in a debate :lol

A bill that sends people to jail for committing a crime is responsible for people then committing those crimes :biggums:

:kobe:

[Draz]

Isn't is both :confusedshrug:
Yes. Logically it is, because there are black market dealers out there trying to beat the system of untaxed dollars and prices on the legal market.

But, the users themselves, shouldn't be considered criminals. There are plenty of successful users time and time again.

[Draz]

90's kids, please stand the fck up

[DonDadda59]

:kobe:

Facts. Everything since then has been absolute shit.


90's kids, please stand the fck up

They can be successful and still be committing a crime. This isn't about morality, it's about simple law. You can be pro gun but recognize that if you have a 30 round magazine in New York State that makes you a criminal, even if you never shoot with it. If it's against the law then by definition you are breaking the law by using it and therefore acting criminal.

[dkmwise]

Facts. Everything since then has been absolute shit.



:applause:


Gotta agree on the 90's, but then again I'm sure I'm biased

[Draz]

The GOP debates attract viewers because if Trumps stupidity, we should be giving them harder questions and challenge their views

Both candidates here are handling their shit well

[dkmwise]

The GOP debates attract viewers because if Trumps stupidity, we should be giving them harder questions and challenge their views

Too many people on the republican side, they have so many debates anyway, why not break them down and do them 2 people at a time

[Draz]

You can be pro gun but recognize that if you have a 30 round magazine in New York State that makes you a criminal, even if you never shoot with it. If it's against the law then by definition you are breaking the law by using it and therefore acting criminal.
And the same 30 round magazine in let's say, Texas, doesn't make you a criminal? Geographical lines shouldn't exist when it comes to both drugs on you and guns. It's a universal subject. JUST like the legal age for sex should very well be at one fixed age entirely. States individually shouldn't have different laws. I've always been against that.

[Jameerthefear]

'98 bitches! I'm in this!

[FillJackson]

clinton has been campaigning for the black vote for over 20 years. she won the black votes over obama for pete's sake
She did not.

She polled well against Obama among black voters in 2007. She did not win the black vote in 2008. Once Obama proved himself to be a viable candidate, the black vote overwhelmingly shifted to Obama. Obama had to show he was the real deal and had a chance of winning before black voters shifted.

http://espnfivethirtyeight.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/2756362342_33f3655ed7_o11.png

The black vote tends to be very, very pragmatic.

[dkmwise]

Can someone explain to me what is racist about the justice system? Serious questions, do people think judges and jury's are just composed of racist people, or are they saying it's more of an economic thing and when people can't afford good lawyers they don't get a fair shot? Also, do people think that black people are going to jail for crimes that they never committed at a high rate, or that white people are getting off on crimes that they did commit. And if it's the latter, then shouldn't the argument be that we need more white people in jail?

This issue seriously confuses me

[Draz]

'98 bitches! I'm in this!
You're not one of us fam
We round your ass over to the 2000's baby's

God dam you lil shit

JUST like the legal age for sex should very well be at one fixed age entirely. States individually shouldn't have different laws. I've always been against that.

I completely agree with you on the gun issue since it is a constitutional right. And the other issues I think there should be more consistency, and I personally don't think people should go to jail for drug use, but there are a lot of laws that I don't agree with, that doesn't make breaking those laws legal though.
Again, not passing a moral judgement or defending laws, just saying if someone is breaking them....

i think the issue is that blacks are serving more time for the same crime and are being incarcerated at a higher rate.

[Jameerthefear]

Dammit!

Don't know if saying that's when born or graduated high school, LOL. Guess that makes me old.

born

[dkmwise]

i think the issue is that blacks are serving more time for the same crime and are being incarcerated at a higher rate.

So the real issue isn't that there are too many people in jail, it's that we need more white boys in jail.

If you commit a crime that has a sentence of 3 years and you get sentenced to 3 years, and someone else commits the same crime and gets sentenced to 1 year, I get that that is a problem, but it's still no ones fault but your own that you are in jail for 3 years.

[Draz]

Again, not passing a moral judgement or defending laws, just saying if someone is breaking them....
I also want to come out and say I actually feel less safe knowing I'm in a legal state of guns. I won't completely agree whether people have the right to bare arms right now, but I feel like people are more prone to react and more prone to using their armed capabilities during a time of duress and dramatical trauma.

You just never know when someone who legally qualified for gun ownership, completely educated and nice can flip. We've seen this countless amount of times.

[dkmwise]

Haha, that's what I was afraid of :oldlol:

actually it's the opposite, the argument is that we need FEWER people in jail

[Draz]

This girls voice LMAOO

Certainly a lot depends on the type of area you live in. Where I live I am way more comfortable knowing that most people have guns in their home, now the town I grew up in, that would be a different story

[dkmwise]

actually it's the opposite, the argument is that we need FEWER people in jail

But if the argument is that white people are committing the same crimes and not getting the same punishment, shouldn't the answer be to punish them correctly for their crimes, not don't punish other people for crime?

[Draz]

Certainly a lot depends on the type of area you live in. Where I live I am way more comfortable knowing that most people have guns in their home, now the town I grew up in, that would be a different story
I live in NY.. I actually would rather feel unsafe walking down a block knowing someone approaching may have a gun or a knife compared to walking down a block knowing majority of the people have guns.

When we're thinking about people owning guns for protection, we're thinking using those who bare arms to serve as police themselves and stop crimes. That's the bigger issue. We shouldn't have to depend on civilians in our community to help US feel safe. That's their job. The issue is above and beyond our reach and we're failing to realize that.

[Jameerthefear]

But if the argument is that white people are committing the same crimes and not getting the same punishment, shouldn't the answer be to punish them correctly for their crimes, not don't punish other people for crime?
no, the answer is to give other minorities the same time that whites are receiving

I hear ya, and that all does make sense for where you are. And where I grew up I would have felt the same way. But where I live now is more rural, at night the local police doesn't have anyone on so the entire COUNTY is covered by 2 State Troopers, so if you call 911 it could be 30-60 minutes before a single officer arrives at your house.

[dkmwise]

no, the answer is to give other minorities the same time that whites are receiving

If it's a serious crime I want people to serve their time regardless of color.

If it's for 'drug possession' then none of them should be in jail at all IMO, but that whole issue has become more a talking point than reality.

[Draz]

But where I live now is more rural, at night the local police doesn't have anyone on so the entire COUNTY is covered by 2 State Troopers, so if you call 911 it could be 30-60 minutes before a single officer arrives at your house.
And that's why owning guns and baring arms makes sense. I won't lie, that sounds very convincing. There's times I want to personally own one because of how the world is operating the past several years with mass shootings, having one in your home in case a break in. Then you think about the backfire this can lead too even just defending yourself.

Like I said.. I'm not going to completely support or disown the gun laws, because I'm being more aggressive as a person walking down the streets of NY ready and always prepared. Whenever someone walks towards me, I'm always on my senses and ready to defend myself. Whenever I'm walking down a street at night, I'm logical about who's around me and behind me every few minutes.

It's this paranoia we have to deal with as people. When I'm walking with family, my senses are magnified because you need to protect them before yourself.

Different states train you psychologically by nature. There is no real answer.

It is sad having to deal with this 'safety' concern all the time. I wonder if our parents or grandparents felt the same way, or if because we intake so much news now that we just see this shit 100x more than they did

[Draz]

Hillary is right. "Making America great again" is bs. We're great as a country. We just aren't whole. We need to be more progressive as a country. There's things we all agree and disagree on. That's perspective.. But we've lost our integrity for decades and we need to stand united, regardless of what party we support.

With that said, Draz for ish president.

[DonDadda59]

Berns had a great night (along with winning Maine comfortably on the low). But I don't think it'll be enough to win Michigan on Tuesday and that's a big one.

[Draz]

If Obama is a black Muslim, why can't we have a sub 500k net worth Jew?

This isn't to compare trump to obama as a candidate or person, but the 'make america great again' thing reminds me so much of 'hope and change'.

If bernie was 10 years younger he'd have this in the bag. His age is the only issue honestly.

[Draz]

"My good friend, secretary Clinton"

My man still wants that VP spot.

Should of gotten Anderson to ask the Republicans how they feel about gay rights

:lol

He wants to be the Czar of Wall Street, LOL

[dkmwise]

:lol

Haha, they did ask about the gay marriage issue in 2 of the debates, at least some of the candidates

[Draz]

Haha, they did ask about the gay marriage issue in 2 of the debates, at least some of the candidates
Yah i know, but Anderson asking as a gay man himself would be hella awkward

[Nick Young]

If bernie was 10 years younger he'd have this in the bag. His age is the only issue honestly.
Bernie has no chance even if he was 40 and looked like Brad Pitt.

He keeps it too real and does not play the politics game enough. Hillary is the opposite. That is why she is winning in a dominant fashion.

[dkmwise]

Yah i know, but Anderson asking as a gay man himself would be hella awkward

good point, have to have Don lemon ask. Oh wait, shit

[NumberSix]

Should of gotten Anderson to ask the Republicans how they feel about gay rights

:lol
There are no "gay rights" only individual rights. Everybody has all the exact same individual rights. We don't do rights by which group you are in.

[Nick Young]

There are no "gay rights" only individual rights. Everybody has all the exact same individual rights.
What? Egalitarianism? How dare you!

[dkmwise]

Wow, Hillary spun that fracking question like a BOSS :applause:

[dkmwise]

Bernie said that his fathers side of the family was completely wiped out during the Holocaust, but earlier he said that he can't begin to know the struggle of minorities in the U.S.

Is it just me or is having your entire extended family killed during a genocide pretty bad.

[Nick Young]

To Social Justice Bigots, Jews don't count as minorities, despite being the most persecuted minority in human history.

To Social Justice Bigots, we need to forget about the Holocaust and support Hamas, because it's 2016.

[FillJackson]

There are no "gay rights" only individual rights. Everybody has all the exact same individual rights. We don't do rights by which group you are in.
Oh yeah?

When do you date this practice to?

[NumberSix]

Oh yeah?

When do you date this practice to?
July 9th 1868

[Patrick Chewing]

Hillary cannot be President.

She wants to go after the gun companies forcing them to close down factories here in the United States. That is as Un-American as it gets. If you're going to run on a platform of bringing more jobs to the Middle Class, then you cannot have it both ways by shutting down plants and manufacturers just because you want to shut down the 2nd amendment.

Trump is and has always been a shill. Basically handing the election to Hillary.

Seriously this is all the democrats have a criminal and a old half communist. GAWD DAMN, what a shitty party. That Webb dude was really the best they had, but the democrat party has been hijacked that a real dem can't make it today. You have to be some extreme lefty or part of the Clinton machine.

Liability on gun manufacturers? Are they supposed to make guns that don't hurt people?

Yeah, I don't understand that whole argument from Hillary.. Put it a different way. Lets say I buy a badass BMW and do reckless driving while speeding. I kill a bunch of people in a massive car accident and get out fine myself. Should BMW be held liable for me breaking the law? Same thing applies here in this situation.

If it's a serious crime I want people to serve their time regardless of color.

If it's for 'drug possession' then none of them should be in jail at all IMO, but that whole issue has become more a talking point than reality.

Yeah, it is not drastic. Only 14% of the prisoners are due to drug offenses. I guess it is still something. It would save money for sure. Drug offenders don't need to be thrown in jail. Save that for the drug traffickers and drug dealers.

According to the Bureau of Prisons, there are 207,847 people incarcerated in federal prisons. Roughly half (48.6 percent) are in for drug offenses. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, there are 1,358,875 people in state prisons. Of them, 16 percent have a drug crime as their most serious offense. There were also 744,600 inmates in county and city jails. (The BOP data is current as of July 16. From BJS, the latest jail statistics are from midyear 2014, and the latest prison statistics from year-end 2013.) That

Never understood why Democrats want to keep American citizens from owning guns.

I mean, if you don't want to own a gun, then don't. I don't want to scramble a fetus around with a coat hanger and suck it out with my Dyson vacuum, so I don't. I don't like that people do, but it is what it is.

Why is that so hard?

The prospect that big government knows whats better for me than I do speaks volumes about the party's end goal. You see the same behavior on this board, people who don't like anything want it banned. You see it on college campuses all over the country.

Don't like it? Ban it.

What can I tell you? Democrats are bad people.

By the government?

What can I tell you? Democrats are bad people. Cute, but it shows your 1868 assertion to be fiction. Also the President who signed the 1964 Civil Rights Bill was from what party?



By the government?Yes, you could certainly have been fired by the government for being gay since 1868. Remember don't ask, don't tell?

Currently the are a couple dozen states that do not prohibit you from being fired if you are gay. That includes cops, fireman, legislative workers, etc. There's a guy who is suing The Library of Congress because he got fired after liking a facebook page called Two Dads.

And there's a fireman in Atlanta who was fired for writing a book after he was given permission from the department.

Shit happens.

If a company wants to fire you, there's no law that will protect you.
