In the end don't we all want the same thing. That's the beauty of the Golden Rule. So why can't we empathize with others?

@charliekirk11 Calling some of these border walls is a misnomer. Some are walls, some are extensive no man land zones that would be impractical.

But a wall just isn't that necessary in light of the private land rights, environmental concerns of putting up a border wall.

@MarushiaDark Me too 👍

[John Lasley @JohnLasley]

@MarushiaDark Similarly we hear accusations of cheating, claims against character of athletes. Often with no REAL underlying basis for it.

Just like in politics and religion...😖. Too often moral arguments are poor excuses to do what you want

[John Lasley @JohnLasley]

@MarushiaDark What I am saying that morally none of us hold any high ground. Our moral arguments often aren't that morally valid. Nothing moral about owning a gun, having an abortion, or being gay...but ppl act it.

And people DO get violent over sports teams....

[John Lasley @JohnLasley]

@MarushiaDark First date? Pfft.

I am talking arguments, two differing sides...not hookups. Lol.
We argue over sports, religion and politics everyday in almost every arena.

[John Lasley @JohnLasley]

@MarushiaDark And moral high ground has become a sink hole on the right recently, but which has been more out of desperation to strike at in disdain of people who aren't like them.
So much that Humanism is overtaking traditional religion morally.

That said, the left is really no better...

[John Lasley @JohnLasley]

@MarushiaDark I'd say people enjoy it as if some catharsis. Simple as that. Doesn't matter if its politics, sports, religion, etc.

I often think it's more tribal than anything principled. That's why I mentioned sports. Political discourse is often like two fans of two rival teams arguing.

@valeriefinnigan @navy_brat_1972 @marcorubio @POTUS Again, guns are the cause of half of the lives lost in suicides. You can keep putting fingers in your ears and tweet "La la la"...but it still true.

Red flag laws, not bans btw, keep guns out of hands thus saving lies. Pee-ree-odd. Nuff said.

[John Lasley @JohnLasley]

@valeriefinnigan @navy_brat_1972 @marcorubio @POTUS Well I am looking at figures that go far beyond your very limited, narrow and purely anecdotal experience.

Go away.

[John Lasley @JohnLasley]

@dpmaturo @leemzeldin @ChatByCC Well that's your opinion. Regardless he got those deals done, got Obamacare passed. Your dismissal of his economic performance is absurd if you praise Trump in turn.

@William34908661 @MrAndyNgo @benshapiro @PortlandPolice We need bans on Dairy Queen blizzards and Arby Jamocha shakes.

@miriam_yaniv @JessikaYaniv Burt?

@TeddyPersians @Gorgo2005 @kae_stoddard @chuzalong Just saying cause people are saying it is her upbringing. She still deserves to get smacked up.

[John Lasley @JohnLasley]

@CarpeDonktum @1traviswilliams IDs are not readily available to everybody, especially poor and elderly. Concessions need to be made for when documents are missing to get IDs, bypassing transportation to BMVs, and making it affordable or free.

Providing IDs are a good idea although fraud is not a problem.

[John Lasley @JohnLasley]

@Gorgo2005 @kae_stoddard @TeddyPersians @chuzalong TBH, whites often say racist shit cause its powerful and they want to go full asshole...but they don't subscribe to the attitudes.

[Fred Harding @OPCGhost]

I didn't believe Trump had Epstein killed.

Until he accused the Clintons, with absolutely no evidence.

Now I think he did it.

[John Lasley @JohnLasley]

@valeriefinnigan @navy_brat_1972 @marcorubio @POTUS I know. Irrelevant.

I mentioned lives saved.

[John Lasley @JohnLasley]

@MarushiaDark I think people use political arguments to make others look bad, so they won't feel inadequate, morally or otherwise, especially on Twitter.
