Re: “When Evil Assaults Innocence”

“I would offer that the entrainment industry should be held to task for inciting rage in our youth. The amount of violence in movies is upsetting, but the video game industry’s ‘shoot 'em up, bang 'em up’ games are beyond disturbing. These ‘games’ are teaching our youth that killing is fun and inconsequential. If they are ‘low on life,’ they can simply run under a magic tree, receive magic pixie dust, and they are off and running again. I’m not sure if our government wants to tackle big business to get to the real root of the evil — it’s too easy to side with the Unites Nations and disarm a free people.” —Oregon

Re: “A Uvalde Attack Timeline and Deterrence Reality Check”

“Dirty little secret — many or most of these horrific mass shooting perpetrators were on, or had been on, Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs), which include Prozac and the like. It was only after the introduction and widespread adoption of these drugs (now an epidemic in the U.S.) that these mass shootings began. And yet all the Left can do is cheer these shootings on as a means to take away our right to defend ourself from the Left.” —Florida

Re: “Busting Biden’s Buffalo Bluster”

“‘I condemn those who spread the lie for power, political gain, and for profit.’ As he himself stands there spreading the lie of white supremacy and racial hatred! Meanwhile, people of color continue killing each other in an astronomical disproportion. Just once I’d like to hear the ‘uniter-in-chief’ actually say something that would help bind us together as a nation instead of tearing us all apart. 
Sadly, I’m NOT holding my breath.” —Maryland

“The Democrats’ refusal to recognize the Republican Party and the newly elected President Lincoln was part of the beginning of the first Civil War. Mr. Biden’s hateful attitude towards today’s Republican Party could be the precursor to the second Civil War. His ‘existential threat’ rhetoric sounds like the excuse made by dictators for repressing opponents — this would be his insurrection against the Constitution. Pray for our nation. Pray that we soon get the wise leaders we so desperately need. Perhaps God will have mercy and relent from the impending disaster.” —Minnesota

“It seems so apparent to me that when Biden moved into the White House and removed national treasures, he also removed all the mirrors so he wouldn’t see himself for the fool he is. For all the division he’s accomplished in these 16 months, I’m glad we don’t have kings. He’d have destroyed our whole nationality in his 47 years prior.” —California

Re: “Scary Mary Gets the Gate”

“Leftists wailing about the supposed demise of the ridiculously bizarre queen of misinformation is a dodge. The lesson vile Democrats are taking home is to bury their Thought Police deep in DHS then deny they exist. No consideration of the First Amendment injunction, ‘Congress shall make no law’ — so speech police shouldn’t exist at all. It’s one thing to house a counter-misinformation operation aimed at foreigners in the State Department or CIA; it’s another to house it in DHS that has domestic police power.” —Illinois

Re: “Christians Hijacking Homeschooling?”

“Whatever the motive and however students are taught, the NEA and other associated Marxist groups need to be driven out of education. The Department of Education should be abolished and all instructional criteria returned to the states and the states only. What is currently being (not) taught will lead to all indoctrinated students acting as voter drones. Nice country we had.” —Massachusetts

“Homeschooled children are usually ahead of public school children academically. Case in point: My son and his wife homeschool their children in New Mexico under strict state standards. When two of the boys were in 1st and 3rd grades, they mistakenly received the final exams for 3rd and 5th grades … but they aced all of them. If mothers would quit their jobs and homeschool their kids, I believe you would see drastic beneficial changes in our culture within a decade.” —Pennsylvania

Re: “The Real Three Mile Island Story”

“What is the difference between any commercial nuclear power plant and those on nuclear submarines? Size? Yet nobody cares about the poor sailors who have to eat meals 50 feet from their plant. After three years on a nuke, one might think I was affected. In reality, I know the safety of these plants. I’ve never watched ‘China Syndrome,’ as I don’t watch other half-truth dramas and ‘documentaries.’ Maybe, 50 years from now, with power outages, the American people will rethink their biases and it will be too late. Color me green.” —Nevada

“I was a Nuclear Operator in the U.S. Navy, and in any industry equipment is going to fail (we try to prevent that with Preventative Maintenance). In 1988, I was on an aircraft carrier just outside the Persian Gulf and we had an electrical fire and then a second mechanical problem that eventually led to what we call a ‘Loss of Flow Accident,’ where we lost coolant flow in the reactor. All the training and drills that we do kicked in, and even though it took us four hours to get the reactor, electrical, and steam plant realigned, we were able to start back up safely and continue operations. At no time was anyone in danger from the reactor melting down or losing the ship, and we continued on. Today, that carrier is still sailing the world.” —Illinois
