    No doubt people get caught with guns and say they didn't know it was illegal or wrong since they are used to doing it
     
    I think they just confiscate your gun if you forget, and give it back when you return in my area.

    I have a friend who is a cop.  Every year, they dress in civilian attire and test the TSA by trying to smuggle weapons or contraband thru security.  Hr says they are about 97% successful.  Told me of one female cop with long hair who puts a rusty old 
    38 revolver on her head, wraps her hair in a bun around it.  When the main alarm goes off, they hand wand her.  When it alarms near her head, she says, "Oh, that's just my Bobby pins," and they wave her thru.  She has been using that same trick for several years now.
     
    Another time, modeling clay was packed inside of a hair dryer to mimic C4.  The agents caught it, opened the the hair dryer, and believed the cop when she said it was how she transported her modeling clay "to protect it".  Reassembled the dryer and sent her on to the plane.

    No doubt!  I am surprised they didn’t go all the way and propose eliminating the Seante as well.

    As a child i grew up in a lower class household so I guess you could say I was poor. I really do believe despite all of our problems the US really is the land of opportunity compared to other places. When I visited the Philippines I came to the realization that even the poorest in the US are better off than most of the population in most other countries around the world. In the US it is unusual to see young children on the streets on their own. In the Philippines I saw it everywhere I went. I believe in our current circumstances with a few exceptions if you are not successful at something in the US you aren't trying hard enough.

    Remember when quoting the bible:  Where it was written, when it was written, and why it was written.  I don't believe there were terrorists with IED's in Egypt.

    The TSA hires the people that McDonald's rejects. Both times flying to the Philippines I found them to be extremely rude and unprofessional. One time there was a Chinese man ahead of me in the screening line who had a hard time with English. The TSA agent was demeaning towards him and insulting him in front of everyone for not being able to speak English. Then it was my turn. I was carrying two laptops (taking one to my wife) and forgot to remove one of them from the bag at the xray machine. I get through the screening and a TSA supervisor was standing there holding my laptop very angrily asking who's it was. I told him it was mine and he flipped out on me. Like I said very rude and unprofessional.
     
    Contrast that with the communist Chinese security at the Hong Kong airport who were professional and polite towards everyone. Same goes for the security at the airport in the Philippines. In fact everywhere I went in the Philippines the security people were very polite. One time in a mall one of them even helped my wife and I carry our bags (funny sight seeing a security guard carrying an M16 helping us with our bags). It's pretty sad that security personnel in a communist nation and a third world nation are more professional than our TSA. I say when the government reopens leave the TSA permanently shut down.

    THE WALL.  So how much money is 5 billion dollars?  Well, if you take 5 billion dollars and divide by the United States population of about 325 million it comes to about 15.38 each.  To the ignoramuses claiming that a wall is "ineffective".  Then why do people that own houses or property build fences and walls surrounding them?  Why have locks on the doors?  In fact, why have doors at all?  I would suggest these people who claim a wall is ineffective they should demolish the walls around their property and remove the doors from their homes.  Just allow anyone to come and go as they please.  Let's see how that goes.  And by the way.  Where do I send my check for $46.14 (family of three) for my share of the wall?  I would be more than happy to pay.  My wife came from the Philippines after months of documentation and fees, etc...  Why should we allow people to just walk in?  Let's build the wall.

    Becuse of another minority voting block for the democratic,  without the minority vote the party  would not exist.  That's why as they started to lose mainstream America they did a 180.

    Yeah he did actually that we would replace social security with a 401k type system. It basically went down just like @TBoneTX said it would and thus it was never voted on.

    U.S. December Nonfarm Payrolls Grew by 312,000; Jobless Rate Rose to 3.9%
    WASHINGTON—U.S. employers added jobs in December at the fastest pace since February and wages surged, suggesting the economy maintained strong momentum at the end of 2018 even as financial markets sank.
    U.S. nonfarm payrolls increased a seasonally adjusted 312,000 in December, the Labor Department said Friday, the biggest jump since February. Average hourly earnings rose a seasonally adjusted 0.4% from November and 3.2% from December 2017, the best full-year gain since 2008.
      A separate survey of households showed the unemployment rate climbing to 3.9% from 3.7% in November, though this was mainly due to more workers entering the workforce.
    Economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal had expected the economy to add 176,000 new jobs in December, wages to rise 0.3% from November and the jobless rate to fall to 3.6%.
