The same companies that outsource jobs overseas, hire experts on work-visas to control them, and exploit every aspect of our economy want you to teach their A.I. how to replace you...

One again we see that armed security/law enforcement are more of a problem than it's citizens. We must end the idolatry of guns, for the sake of our nation.
Have you seen the video? He clearly didn’t even hear/see the guys in the high vis vests and started running AFTER they shot at him.

Violence begets violence, either directly or indirectly. Greed is inherently self-defeating.

Every American has a common cause; the prosperity of our nation.

Undocumented immigrants (“illegal aliens”) commit crimes at a rate lower than HALF that of U.S. citizens, per the report linked in this thread, and recently deleted from DOJ’s website.
