I didn't condition myself. I live in reality. Trump is a liar.
You didn't just say 'Trump is a liar' before.
You said 'Trump lies every time he opens his mouth."
Now we're all been paying attention to politics for a long time, and only the ones who are honest will admit the politicians you like don't always tell the truth and the politicians you hate don't always lie.
And the smart ones who pay attention to politics know the difference between exaggeration, when someone is favorably rounding, or at least close to being correct.
The difference is when a politician is purposely deceitful, but giving you own politicians a break because they're on 'your side,' while demonizing the opposing politicians for doing exactly what you excuse your own politicians are doing.
For example, if you think Biden was telling the truth about Trump going to bankrupt social security if he becomes President again, you have no idea how to detect a lie by your own politician.
Sorry if it hurts your feelings.
And once again, when you know you're losing on the facts, you attempt to personalize the argument.
The M-16 and ARs are different but are not hugely different. Everyone knows the AR isn't full auto and yes, I know that's not the only difference. I've shot ARs and AKs. I guess you can call that a lie if you like.
M-16s have Full-Auto & 3-Round-Bursts. That's what makes them 'Weapons of War.'
A-15s have neither of them, and are single-shot.
One trigger pull = One round fired.
Not unlike tens of millions of other semi-automatic firearms in the country, and across the western world.
The same with legal AK-47s.
In fact 3-round burst and automatic fire weapons are largely illegal and the process to have a license and buy one is long and expensive.
Based on Walz 'Weapons in War' speech he basically says they're the exact same weapon.
Trump lies so much I cannot actually even begin to keep up.
My first response to Zazen's post applies to you as well.
