Please join him.
Anyone who promotes Official Stories needs to just leave. We have NO idea what really happened, just like the cop shootings in MO last week. Shame on you!

(66,462 posts)Another "we don't know what really happened!" nutbag. And an un-gallant asshole, as well.
Sorry you had to see that, CalPeg. Not everyone receives a proper upbringing...

(581 posts)Republicans. Many of the radical law makers have been imported from other states since they could not win in their home states. If you review the bills in line to be passed or that have passed, they are the most radical. Arizona law makers never pass bills to make the people and state safer. We have no laws about trashing the state with cans/bottles and plastic. Republicans refuse to even allow a bill in committee. The AAA insurance recently disclosed they have given up on AZ law makers to pass any sensible auto or road safety bills. They have tired for years to work with the Republicans and they are not interested in a safe state.
