Too many here are playing a dangerous game, and a profoundly un-American one. I do not believe the vision for this was to become what it has become, but it must be called out plainly: calls to political violence have become commonplace here. Here is a random sampling. "Kill all democrats" Said...

OMG I hope this passes. This is the dumbest thing ever that we're still doing this! https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-senate-approves-bill-that-would-make-daylight-savings-time-permanent-2023-2022-03-15/

Reminds me of the set of The Crow from the 90’s. https://deadline.com/2021/10/alec-baldwin-movie-fatal-shooting-director-crew-member-dead-rust-1234860500/

The more exposure I have to the healthcare system in the US the more disgusted I am by it. I just spent two hours this morning on the phone trying to figure out why I'm spending hundreds/month on prescriptions when a deductible (another scam) has already been hit. It turns out that one drug hit...

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/17/juneteenth-federal-holiday-biden-signs-bill.html Juneteenth National Independence Day Yes, they are calling a holiday two weeks prior to Independence Day Juneteenth National Independence Day.

Here's an article on the topic: How L.A.'s Brentwood School Became a Battleground in the Culture Wars But my title is more generic because this school is not the only one. This past week a school in NYC has been on the news. A teacher named Rossi got sick of its race obsession and called it...

Yes I had to make a new thread because this is his biggest gaffe ever. Guy IS suffering from major cognitive decline. I feel even cnn et al could not avoid this if it were not happening today...

This is crazy news. I assume it's true and they really were doing this. I do suspect that at least a few of the guys were just aimlessly talking shit and didn't realize that a target was on their back because at least one guy was dead serious about it...

I have an "imminent" need to vacuum seal a bunch of dry food (dog food--bought too much). I borrowed somebody's foodsaver yesterday, proceeded to bag 11 bags per instructions, with a new roll, and already 10 have lost vacuum. I've read online about double sealing but the thing is proving a pain...

And schools. But I recall reading something about some law that supposedly guaranteed rights nationwide. I hear stories that this law used to actually apply to New York. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8807391/Cuomo-orders-schools-New-York-City-hotspot-zipcodes-close.html my take is...

I guess the CDC gets some new de facto authority. This is a terrible idea now, it was a terrible idea before. The impact to the rental market is not known, but it will be significant. I was always against this. The government has seized the use of property with no legal recourse for landlords...

This is referencing a CNN poll, which is saying the same, but CNN does not work with adblock, so you know that's not how I roll. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8634501/Trump-narrowed-gap-Biden-poll-shows.html I'm still pessimistic about Trump's odds because my favorite poll...

Going to be increasingly difficult for people to pretend BLM only wants equality brought on by peace. They condone, and in many cases openly endorse (e.g. "no justice no peace") criminal acts. Looting, violence against police, intimidation intended to promote political change. This is the very...

Apparently the federal agents who have been defending the federal courthouse are going to leave. I guess the building will be ransacked and burned once they are gone...

The hell is going on. Seattle passes this law to protect (?) rioters. I mean peaceful protesters. Big surprise the chief of police is like wtf are you doing, and judge blocks the law for now. Seattle should be passing a law giving cash bonuses to police for every rubber bullet they let fly...

Email out tonight. They are offering either 50% in person/50% home OR 100% home. The 100% remote kids you might as well just give them shovels and axes now and send them to the camps, they won't be learning shit. Their education will be on youtube. Endless videos as they gorge lying on their...

Even if you've not heard of this guy he's relatively famous. Has hosted some tv shows and what not. Somewhere along the way he become a racist piece of shit. Now, how did this happen? I think it happened when our society started tolerating racism again. After civil rights we said okay enough of...

Seems like something from theonion. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8460719/House-Democrats-vote-make-Washington-D-C-state-renaming-Douglass-Commonwealth.html

Guys, I know this looks like something from theonion.com. I googled to make sure, and I checked his account to confirm it is his real account and it doesn't look like he was hacked. This is, from what I can tell, actual and real. I think it's high time we had a Perineum Hygiene Day, to raise...

Surprised this hasn’t been up yet—apologies if repost. Thoughts on this vid? I know what it looks like (two guys murder another guy) but we’ve been burned before by misrepresentations of what really happened. The story is this guy was just going out for a jog. But if I saw two guys stopped...

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/05/06/bill-to-cancel-student-debt-of-health-care-workers-fighting-coronavirus-introduced-in-house.html Holy sweet Jesus, this is going to f us if the democrats get their way on this sort of rank nonsense. Doctors, too? So $300k in debt gone because a doctor actually...

If there's one thing we need around here it's another thread on politics, so here it is. Tonight bloomberg is on the ballot. I do not expect a ton of delegates to him based on the polls I've seen. NBC has a state by state break down, because the main contenders tonight of course are sanders and...

The full title of the article is actually: Chris Matthews announces retirement, mutually parts ways with MSNBC but I didn't want to lie in a thread title, so I had to keep the second half out. This is all a result of course of him daring to question the insanity of sanders' radical left...

These guys are really putting themselves into a corner. I didn't realize Sanders (I confirmed elsewhere) is proposing a .5% tax on stock purchases. I'm not quite sure how they arrived at it but it quotes Vanguard in there as saying the average (everyday) saver would need to work 2.5 years...

Well this graph pretty much says it all. Creepy Joe was the chosen one and remains so. Is he even campaigning? I have no idea. I still don't know a single thing he plans to do. He's going to sleep his way into the nomination in the same way Hillary did. It's possible of course that something...

https://www.cnbc.com/2019/12/11/americans-say-strong-economy-only-helping-the-rich.html The class war is working. Although unemployment is the lowest most workers ever have or will see, and wages are growing, they don't care. You give a guy a piece of pie and somebody else three all he can...

I'm assuming this is real, as Ezra is a well known guy in Canada. This interrogation goes exactly as one would expect an interrogation like this to go. Person plays dumb, then trips over themselves to apologize to some idiot bureaucrat. As I have said before we are the only western country I'm...

https://apnews.com/5460dd41243c458185e8c02b3b4fee52 In case you hadn't noticed Canada is having a national election today. They are surely going to end up with a "minority" government in which the party with the most seats doesn't have a majority of seats (unlike the US they have more than two...

Trump attacks Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez she retaliates calling him a criminal who betrays our country | Daily Mail Online This person's rant is too perfect not to be a troll. Says we only have a few months left and "even if we bomb Russia" we still have too many people left, so we need to eat...

This made me laugh. I heard about it yesterday. It's obviously intended to put radical lefties into an impossible spot, because they are unsure about which part of that they disagree or agree with or what it means. The genius of the ‘Islam is right about women’ stunt

I can say truly I had never heard of this girl until a day or two ago in another video posted to the forum. Apparently she's the darling of climate change proponents at this time. She is a 16 year old, so obviously she's a voice of experience in any sort of complex matter. Anyway, she was...

Once again, the modern trend of abdicating parenting from the parent(s) to the school system continues. Charter schools in CA are pissed because they are losing control over what they can do. We have one kid in private school now and the rules are awesome. Lots of "you will be suspended for...

Peterson has a bit of a cult following. He is vehemently anti-politically correct. Agree with almost everything he says in his lectures. Paglia is a famous feminist and social critic. But not a modern one who's primary source of knowledge is twitter; she is very extremely well educated, and she...

Walmart plans to dramatically step back from gun sales after 'horrific' shootings Some of their ammo prices were pretty good.

I started hunting a few years ago, with bow/xbow/black powder, but ever since seeing the last of the Mohicans 25+ years ago I've had it as an itch to hunt with a flint lock. I know cleaning them is extremely important, I know powder in a pan is a hassle, I know there is a delay when pulling the...

Finally the deets. Elizabeth Warren's plan to forgive student debt would help 45 million students I'm against this plan for a multitude of reasons 1) I'll have to pay for it 2) Why are we forgiving this but not credit card or auto debt? 3) People already spend way too much on shit degrees...

Years ago Iran talked about attacking ships in the strait of hormuz and of course I said this would never happen, because Tropic Thunder had already come out. It seems they didn't see it. They were "admonished" by the royal navy a week ago or so, they seized a tanker a couple days ago, now they...

I'm looking for an IWB holster for an LCP2. What's the store with the biggest selection at this time? I want something specific to it, probably kydex I guess. I like the alien gear cloak tuck because it allows a shirt to be tucked pretty well. Also with a separate shell it can hold a full size...

The Boomers Ruined Everything I'll start by saying I've thought for many years that Boomers are largely responsible for screwing over the youth in this country as it pertains to their pensions. This article clearly has the same view. I did find some of its arguments tenuous and without much to...

Trump hitting Mexico with 5% tariff in response to migrants Dang, if he actually goes through with this it's a major deal. So many companies have outsourced down to Mexico this can really put a wrench in finances. Business world is going to cry bloody murder over this, but the real losers will...

Trump 'giving strong considerations' to releasing ICE detainees 'in sanctuary cities only' All I have to say is LOL. I can't wait to see the excuses from dems on this one.

Gov. Cuomo: SUNY swimmers can't use GoFundMe money for hotel rooms There's something really particularly spiteful about all this. The governor is using these young men/women as pawns in his political virtue signalling. This is actually one of the worst things he's ever done. What an absolute...

Trump will sign spending bill and declare a national emergency, Mitch McConnell says Trump's done better with this than I thought he would 3 weeks ago. I thought he'd totally bought the farm on it. But, he gets some of his wall money. It will be interesting to see how this national emergency...
