Im 16 and I used to be much more addicted to my phone. My generation is more depressed & sleep deprived because of social media.

1. How? Limit the internet? Block websites? = censorship 2. Why? = since when does the government become responsible for my mistakes? 3. This means the government can dictate arbitrary issues of conduct, do you know what that potentially means??!

No. Government is not your mommy or your daddy (despite popular belief). Whatever happened to self-control and personal responsibility.

Why would anyone want more government intervention in to their life? Its not the responsibility of government to be all things for us as individuals.

No one's taking away my SquareOffs! Plus, it's far too subjective for the government to get involved.

And your sugar addition, and your alcohol and coffee intake, and your fast food intake...do you really want to give the government even more power?

We do need law and order. I can't believe you would pick illegal criminals over the safety of Americans. Gavin Newsom Maxine Waters need to be arrested.

We need law and order in our country. The rioters are violent and most are in this country illegally.

His actions are a heavy-handed intrusion into a very localized event. Moreover, it’s the height of hypocrisy for him to claim he is putting down rebellion. We all remember the Jan. 6 attack in the Capitol and how he pardoned all those who had been convicted.

That is the states responsibility and the federal government should only come when ask.
