My cousin has one for their dog. Before I would use it while pet sitting I tried it on my hand. I didn't go up to the max but I could imagine what that would be like on the throat. It wasn't horrible on the hand, but pushing the button, knowing you were going to get the shock was awful.

I don't think I would have much issue pushing the button on Meghan's screeching.

I do not like paying taxes to support the military complex, however. Why does the most militarized nation in the world need to sink more money into producing more military might? I am all for a strong military, but it is getting ridiculous.

As that is also a socialist funded entity. The reason is, just like other nations have figured out with medical needs, that its cheaper to pool money together and centralize spending for the whole country. Imagine if for instance, every county, or even every State was say, ordering uniforms independently from different clothing shops. Instead of pooling their resources and buying power to order enough uniforms in bulk for more soldiers across the country? And of course that point is multiplied when talking about buying planes or other weaponry.

I wish more people would counter some of these pro-military right wingers with that fact.

We are in favor of single payer health care, welfare, worker's comp, unemployment assistance, forcing drug companies to lower prices, consumer protection, financial regulation, progressive taxation (which means much higher taxes for the wealthy than the middle class), government support for education, government support for scientific research, government support for the arts, job training, etc, etc. We are socialists.

The Blue states pay more in taxes than they get back from the government. The Red states are the beneficiaries of this government largess as they receive more from the government than they pay. In essence the states that didn't vote for Trump are subsidizing Trump states. In other words, the Red states are getting the benefits of (wait for it)

Bada Bing, socialism.

where the top 1 percent of households own more wealth than the bottom 90 percent combined we may be able to have European style socialism but not in our lifetimes. It will be up to individual states to get the ball rolling, much like what Canada did. But we all live under socialism, public roads, schools, fire, police, military, ect… but paying for all of this has been put on the shoulders of the bottom 90% while the rich get uber welfare.

She always yells over everyone and seems to look towards the the camera to make sure she is on. Her Faux/Republican talking points are nothing but lies. She has no worries in the world because she was born with a silver foot in her mouth. She cannot relate with the poor and disenfranchised in our country because she has no empathy. I have lifed in AZ my entire life and am very aware about how her father became a senator and the circumstances under which he married Money, I mean Cindy. I respect his service but I don't respect how he has represented our state.

MM is the WORST. She won't let anyone speak and it drives me insane too. One day she'll defend IQ45 and the next, who knows! But she hate Socialism that's for sure. My gawd, did you hear her? She's keeps talking and I think she looks at the camera because the clock is there showing how much time they have left in that segment. I wished she'd shut up already! gaaaaaa

There are so many things wrong with this spoiled bimbo. Honestly I think she’s losing her mind on The View. I will say it must be difficult to sit there and be exposed for being a hypocrite to the party of Trump day after day. She doesn’t have the temperament nor any logical information to withstand the barrage of embarrassment. Her only qualification is she is the daughter of the US senator who has gained notoriety for being referred to as the Maverick, when in fact he has been more of an embarrassment and a clown in Congress, at times, than anything else.

Time to ship her out and back to FOXNews she was surrounded by other bimbos who will pat her head and confirm to her that she is “OK”. Worthless clown. No real qualifications nothing worthwhile to add...ever. She only attempts, and fails, to make excuses for her fellow tRumpanistas. Deplorables...every one of them. Sorry...if they STILL support this disgusting con artist after all is said and done, they are evil, ignorant deplorables.

Republicans manipulate language for political gain. They imprint bumper sticker slogans on their base so that when challenged they only know how to respond by preaching those slogans, not listening, not discussing, not ever hearing anything that might chip at those sloganistic ramparts they have constructed. It also illustrates the fallacy of the idea that the Democratic Party should make any attempt to modify their platform or language so as not to offend these benighted people in the vain hope that they might bring them into the large tent. They are lost.

The time for conciliation has passed. Ostracize and isolate, boycott and ban.

Every single day she appears, she epitomizes why it is so important to vote.
Every grating filabususter reminds me of who these selfish, self-absorbed repukes are. Her sanctimonious, self-righteousness reflects exactly who she is. She says I don’t listen to conservative voters. But I do. I watch all the time and I listen to her. So they can’t say I wouldn’t listen.
Can you believe they ousted Nicole Wallace and worked their way down to McLump?
Anyway, they would replace her with someone more odious like SC Cupp or that horrible Periero or whomever.
So I’m sticking with McNut.

PS. Don’t let the outrage of a stupid label divide us. If they want to call me a Socialist, have at it. I know who I am and what I believe and they’ve actually called me worse.
