QUESTION: You do not think that control will stop these school shootings?
JF
ANSWER: No way. If you do look on Wikipedia, you will see that we are approaching 500 incidents where a gun has been discharged in a school. This has been going on since the 18th century, Imposing metal examines and a note from a family doctor to get a gun that there have been no mental concerns is a good idea. Keep in mind, people who do these things are NOT criminals. They are more often than not deranges and have no criminal record.
Additionally, outlawing all guns is crazy. You run the risk of a government out of control like Venezuela and the people have no means to defend themselves or their property. Moreover, criminals do not walk into a store to buy a gun to go rob a bank. They buy them in the black market off the radar. You cannot stop crazy people by then taking guns away from everyone else. Once again the shooter was posting Nazi things online.
Hello? Does anyone look at behavioral patterns as a criteria

National Economic Council Chairman Larry Kudlow appeared on Fox Business earlier Thursday to talk about the ongoing U.S. China trade negotiations. Those who follow the Dragon -vs- Panda strategies of China saw earlier yesterday how Chairman Xi Jinping was positioning N-Korea as leverage for the current trade negotiations.
The DPRK dragon-play didn’t work because President Trump knows the dragon’s moves, and predicted their approach from the outset. Remember, POTUS Trump began executing a geopolitical economic strategy toward both North Korea and China well over a year ago. [During the first meeting with Chairman Xi Jinping in Mar-a-Lago (Feb, 2017)]

After over a year of discussions and structured way-points, China came into the current round of U.S. trade talks with outstretched steel fists. The line-up they sent to the negotiating table are some of the most loyal and die-hard communist leadership within their economic team.
It is obvious China is in dragon-mode knowing they are dealing with an entirely different administration than they faced before.
According to Reuters China presented an initial offer of $200 billion year-one trade deficit reduction. That’s just flat out narrative nonsense. Apparently the Chinese have spent too much time interpreting Trump through Western media who always focus on “deficit reduction” aspects. That type of approach pitches into Larry Kudlow’s wheelhouse but misses the actual substantive sector-based focus of Trump, Ross, Mnuchin and Lighthizer.
POTUS Trump uses the point of “deficits” because it has a familiar catch with the U.S. audience; however, President Trump knows the real issue is the amount of domestic production -vs- the amount of imported foreign goods. If the Chinese team frame their analytic offers from deficit reduction pitches, the actual deals will never materialize.
President Trump, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, U.S. Trade Rep. Robert Lighthizer, and Trade Adviser Peter Navarro are looking at sector by sector trade issues. It is not simply an import-export equation; it’s about a longer outlook and more balanced and stable manufacturing base.
President Trump is not focused on enhancing interdependency models (deficits), he is looking at expanding independence models sector by sector. Can this sector thrive independent of a need for imported material (raw good, part, service or intellectual property)?
The U.S. goal is for each individual sector (goods or services) not to be necessarily dependent or co-dependent on international import. This America-first approach reduces risk exposure and enhances investment perspectives favorably toward the U.S. by creating long-term economic stability.

The EU migration chief, Dimitris Avramopoulos, has demonstrated that politicians are just so out of touch with reality they are securing their own demise. Avramopoulos has made a speech that Europe is set to absorb massive waves of migration “for the decades to come” and that the EU will “never become a fortress” building walls to keep people out. He delivered this speech yesterday as the Euro broke the 118 level. By this very policy, the failed invasion of the Ottoman Empire back in 1683 has been fulfilled. Christianity in Europe will eventually decline to a second-rate religion. These people are just so far from reality refusing to admit that this decision is what is tearing the EU apart, that this refusal to admit a mistake is sealing the fate of the EU and will raise the stakes of disintegration by 2020-2021.
