It seems every step we take closer to November leads to a higher level of lying, lying to a superlative degree that it almost defies logic.

For example it was claimed that 62% of California disapproves of Trump without revealing whether or not that 62% includes the millions upon millions of illegal aliens that the Democrats in California not only want to include in a survey but want to include in a vote. What Democrats are voting for is importing Mexican corrupt government and not maintaining righteous America principles.

@KaMillYon1 @VDHanson As for me, I would never suggest such be done.

@pookausa41026 @japan_nobunaga Please explain the Rape of Nanking.

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

I'm glad you got set off. I enjoy the conversation and the give and take. Is there anything else you'd like to know? What I would like to know, Jasmine, is how you would possibly consider 200,000 registered arms to be a disarmament. As well, a regulated process to acquire an arm if you wish. Then please edify me why a nation that committed such atrocities as the Rape of Nanking would do anything else.

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

@luluraeven @japan_nobunaga I have been in Japan several times and am acclimated to their culture and recognize that issues like the Rape of Nanking indicate a national barbarity that would, in any nation committing such infamy, Mandate self-control.

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

It is very incomplete, Karen. As I noted in other responses, the Japanese R*pe of Nanking and other cultural failures of that now-admired nation clearly explain why they seek to control themselves. America has never had that problem of self-control over barbarity like the Japanese have, and for good reason. We are not barbaric, but they have proven that they are. Nevertheless, 200,000 weapons is not insignificant and would satisfy a small army's need.

@SECPIALOPS @japan_nobunaga SECOPS, I am not a boomer! My generation is what made the boomers wealthy and smart, so smart you haven't been able to grab it all from them yet. If you were half as smart as you think you are, you'd be rich.

@RogerThat1961 @japan_nobunaga When I was a River Patrol Boat (PBR) captain in '67-'68, the most valued possession on our boats was a shotgun that could take out five or six Charlies with one round. Roger, you don't know shit.

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

Not so, Zero, because my reply was factually based and supported by actual data, but I do see that, because of social outrages like the massacre at Nanking by the Japanese Army, the country has worked to demilitarize itself. That being said, there are hundreds of thousands of weapons in Japan, not even including the Yakuza.

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

@BeIngRie @japan_nobunaga See my reply above, which applies to this counter-argument equally. You're right. Name calling is not necessary. Except when one is a total idiot.

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

I never said that it was not regulated. I only said that it was widespread. After what the Japanese did during World War II to its prisoners of war and civilian captives, especially considering the rape of Nanking, of course they had restrictions on monsters in disguise? Could be, but following their rules is not onerous or burdensome. Just think and correspond with the authorities before you act.

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

Sherry, your post reply brought a tear to my eye. My house was on North 1st Avenue below Foothill Blvd. I drive by as often as I can, but as the days go by, that becomes more rare. I see the now - ancient liquid amber trees that are there. The front door decorations my father made by hand; and then I drive to the "alley" and look at the concrete block wall that I helped my dad build in 1951. Such sweet memories your reply brought.

@BigWagWag I recently had a person who I've known for many years ask me, "Why do you think Christian church participation has declined so radically in our lifetime?" I'm wondering whether I should show that person this video. What do you think?

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

GLP-1 really has a horrible side effect on me. I took it for diabetic control and was never told at the time I had to increase radically my exercise, so a side effect was muscle loss. I really can't believe it is being sold for weight loss. I think there is going to be, in the future, a lot of people paying dear prices for weak musculature at tremendous cost to healthcare. Is this another side effect of the Democrat push for mind control through medical overreach?

@GDogwood6088 @CindyBurlison @TheSCIF This controversy is like forever. It’s sadly true. Not only is Hillary unfaithful to her unfaithful husband she’s equally unfaithful to our country. She exemplifies democrat standards because neither her’s nor their’s exist.

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

@AprilSpark1890 This kind of craziness is what happens when you cut off their ability to rip off taxpayers. There's no depth they will not plumb in order to get back their source of illicit wealth. No lie is too big, no act is too criminal to fight Trump applying law-abiding rules.

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

You are plainly a total complete absolute idiot. The man did a good deed by releasing the fish after catching it in an eons long tradition of masculine fishing. That’s probably what bothers you the most that men like to fish. You go to the store and buy a fish forgeting that some son of a bitch had to catch it for you.

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

@ofcrdeonjoseph Race should be no part of the equation today although admittedly in the past it was. Doesn’t two justices on the United States Supreme Court say anything?

[Charles Benninghoff @cfbenninghoff]

@02bekir63 I know Istanbul and Ghaziantep. I cannot find on the map where you are
