And mandatory insurance policies as well. If I have to have insurance for my car potentially hurting others, you have to have insurance for each bullet that may harm others

No, K1, I'm not. I'm speaking about something hypothetical without precedent (that I could find by googling). Not sure how to phrase this or how any laws would would be jargoned, but the effect would be that the weapon itself (and potentially ammunition) would be insured against use in homicide. Either the owner or the manufacturer would have to pay the insurance. Either way, the price would be exorbitant, and that's the entire point. I'd imagine there'd be a liability cap the insurance provider would have to pay out (maybe $1M per death and $100K per non-fatal injury, no idea), but the offender would not be held harmless for damages in excess of the cap, nor would they be indemnified from criminal prosecution.

I'm sure I've screwed up the legalese here as this is not my domain, but unless I'm even more ignorant than I realize (possible), I don't see why this would be unimaginable.

How about we also increase the pain of punishment.

If your child (of any age) is the perpetrator of a mass shooting, both parents and all direct siblings are charged with 3rd degree murder and given 30 years in prison. Your fault for failing society and raising a terrorist and not spotting it earlier.

Change the prison time to probation and financial restitution in perpetuity. Parents can keep working, but half your salary will go to supporting victims and their families for as long as they need it. Price you pay for raising a POS.

Going back to 1984, Biden’s current supporters are really an outlier in that 60% say they are voting against Trump instead of for Biden. Assuming Biden wins, will this hurt his leverage and ability to govern. Seems like he could be a POTUS without really strong support in his own party.

Serious question: how have we got to this point? ~20 million people are willing to go to war against their neighbor and “willing to die” for Donald Trump. A 75 year old who ran casinos, golf courses, and had a private 757 who pays over several thousand for “hair care” throughout the year. That’s an army 2.5x the size of NYC. Canada is no longer a joke.
