June Inflation Highest Since February, CPI +2.7%

What I used isn't a vulgar term

Yes it is. Either way it's still name calling.

pedophilia, government officials murdering American citizens on US soil, and stealing taxpayer money

What pedophilia? Who is the victim? Who is the perpetrator?

I'm not aware of any government official murdering an American citizen. What are you talking about?

What stealing taxpayer money?

You spout all this random nonsense that isn't based on fact. For someone who:

I'm willing to speak truth when it comes to financial matters

You sure like going off topic. Stop getting your news from The View and stay on topic please.

I do speak the truth. Do you think you live in a utopia where facts don't apply to your understanding?

• There are credible allegations that Trump sexually abused children and used his wealth and status to cover it up.
• ICE agents murdered Renee Good and Alex Pretti, those are two names you may recognize as even the obscure conservative media picked it up.
• Tariffs levied on trade by the president were deemed unconstitutional. Tariffs are money that we taxpayers paid in excess the cost of goods. The money has not been returned and the premise of the tariffs being unlawful constitutes theft.

But stay on topic, it's not my job to educate you on current events. You should know that national gas prices are at $4.02/gallon because of an unprovoked war on Iran.

Who are the children? Who is making the allegations? It's all made up non-sense.

Renee Good tried to run a officer over. Alex Pretti pulled a gun on an officer while being apprehended. In both cases it was justifiable homicide, not murder.

The mental gymnastics you list as tariffs = stealing tax dollars, be serious.

Iran has been calling for death to America and threatening to nuke Israel for the last decade. It seems you support the Iranian government?

You could inform yourself instead of insisting on ignorance, that is a choice you've been informed of in many discussions revolving around your denial of certain facts and events.

I'm absolutely serious on tariffs. Taxation without representation, it's one of the central reasons we left England and formed the United States where we have laws against having Kings.

I don't support the Iranian government and certainly haven't supported their brand of extremism since the 70's, but I'm beginning to wonder if you do, since the conflict has only emboldened their extremist resolve which resulted in increased killing of their own citizens who resisted the regime, removed sanctions on their oil to improve their trade with Russia, and hurt everyday Americans, killed American troops.

In November 2024 we heard from voters that the cost of things was the most important thing on their minds. $4.02 average for a gallon of gas and a resulting 15% market correction isn't what people asked for, along with no foreign wars. But here we are.

$1.50 Per dozen for eggs this week. Cheapest I've seen in a while.
Gas is still under $4 here.

Who are these children being abused by Trump?
If government agents are murdering people why aren't they being prosecuted?

You can make up all the outlandish claims you want, that doesn't make them facts. Your world view is delusional.

If you have so much curiosity, why doesn't it lead you to reading primary sources on the issue? I'm genuinely curious... what "news" do you recommend for reading which leads you to this obscene viewpoint of yours?

What's the price of gas near you right now, and what was it in January 2025?

$3.699 for regular as of yesterday. I'll have to check my personal expense spreadsheet and cross reference my fuel consumption chart to determine what the price was earlier this year.

It's obscene that a woman who tries to run a cop over gets shot? It's obscene that a man pulls a gun on a cop and gets shot? Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Yea that deal was just plain stupid.
Jump into a tussle with law enforcement and the very best scenario you can hope for is to get violently taken to the ground and physically roughed up by a group of cops, cuffed, stuffed in a squad car and hauled to jail.
Expose a gun into this mix you'll be darned lucky if you don't get shot.

That proves you don't actually read anything about either of those events. Alex Pretti was shot after he was restrained and disarmed. And video also proves Renee Good was retreating. But that's the kind of "enforcement" that happens with a politically-motivated gestapo. People have a right to carry firearms, and they have a right to retreat from police brutality.

This is just absolutely untrue.

He was out in the street, in law enforcements faces, pushing them, probably cussing them, etc.
During the scuffle as they were trying to restrain him the gun was spotted by law enforcement and he was shot. He was violently resisting, was not in cuffs and who knows what he might have done.

I'm not going to try to judge if the law enforcement shooting was within department policy or not, but what you have stated is simply false.

Both victims had a right to be where they were and doing what they were doing. The videos show exactly what they were doing, and none of it appears to have warranted a federal agent shooting a US citizen, and then withholding lifesaving aid.

There are literally videos showing the entire events in both cases. He was restrained and disarmed before he was shot. She put the car in reverse before the officer lunged at her through the window, and in the forward motion her vehicle was pointed in the direction of traffic trying to get away.

But I'm sensing it's useless to argue. Your viewpoints align with your own morality or lack of, and your understanding of justice. Those of us who believe in the US Constitution and eyewitness, recorded accounts, just have to live with the fact that some people are so easily duped. What's even more egregious is the federal agency has refused to cooperate in investigations, withheld evidence from state authorities. But I guess I shouldn't be surprised that those things don't matter to people who don't understand right from wrong. I can't change that, I can only accept it.

I wonder what ICE policy is on the number of rounds they should fire into a US citizen once they're detained and they've been stripped of their legally carried, holstered gun. Federal agents in the case of Alex Pretti seemed to think 10 rounds between two agents at close range was the appropriate number.

Is that really bad training, lack of confidence in one's marksmanship at close range, or just anger?

If we apply that same logic to gas prices, we've won the Iran war at least 7 times now and gas prices keep going up. If we keep winning, it's the right thing to do and has more and more effect, right?

You don't draw to intimidate. You don't shoot to maim, you don't shoot to slow down.

You target center of mass and you don't stop firing until the target is neutralized. And by neutralized, I mean deceased.

One shot, or twenty, you don't stop firing until the target is dead. Then you call an ambulance.
