#4  Funny thing, I'm at the point where I have had enough of the dictatorship of other peoples' feelings, especially if they only 'feel' strongly enough.

We are all supposed to magically bow and scrape before their intensity of emotion without so much as a nano second's worth of evaluation. Well I have evaluated and the lot of them can get stuffed starting with Bozo the man with the mike.

#13  Over at American Digest...

I never cared.

I never cared if you were “gay” or whatever acronym you chose to call yourself until you started shoving it down my throat.

I never cared what color you were, if you were a good human until you started blaming me for your problems.

I never cared about your political affiliation until you started to condemn me for mine.

I never cared where you were from in this great Republic until you began condemning people based on where they were born and the history that makes them who they are.

I have never cared if you were well off or poor because I’ve been both. Until you started calling me names for working hard and bettering myself.

I’ve never cared if your beliefs are different than mine. Until you said my beliefs are wrong.

I’ve never cared if you don’t like guns until you tried to take my guns away.

Now. I care.

I’ve given all the tolerance I have to give.

This is no longer my problem. It’s your problem.

You can still fix it It’s not too late.

But it will be soon.

I’m a very patient person at times. But I’m out of patience.

There are literally Millions of people just like me that are sick of your Anti-American crap!

We have had enough!

America is the greatest country on earth and if you don’t like America then you can leave. We are done caring about your misguided feelings.

You shouldn’t have the right to enjoy American freedoms if you are trying to take that right away from other Americans.

#16  I think I had a moment of clarity this morning.

The Lefty Presidential Candidate says it will not stop if Trump is re-elected. What many considered to be a veiled threat.

But it is Lefties that are burning down Lefty cities so the threat is against Lefties. The left really, really, fears their base will stay home or vote for Trump.

#20  who's to say the Brits arent more in on this than just the Steele dossier?

When information leaked of foreign involvement in entrapping Page and Papadopoulos, the head of Britih GCHQ (Brit's NSA) abruptly resigned. So did the head of Italy's Spy Agency (don't remember which one). Funny that both Halper and Mifsud taught spies university level classes in Britain and Italy. The chief got caught doing favors for the CIA/FBI and were in danger of burning their respective governments in the biggest scandal in US history.

Despite everything, Trump's approval remains at record highs.

Wait him out and clean your own house.
Trump will only serve two terms and if the Dems haven't gotten it together by then and excised their crazies you'll get two more GOP terms.

#25  After the riots in the late 60s no openly Communist sympathizer could be elected until 2008. Carter hid his feelings behind an aw shucks I was in the Navy and Clinton played centrist. Everyone else lost and lost big. If we survive I expect the Communist bug to finally be stomped out.

The worst of the left will probably return as Islamists or Nazi's or something.

Division among US masses grows as armed groups clash in Louisville
[DAILYTIMES.PK] As disputes in cities across the United States continues to rage, armed police supporters and anti-racism demonstrators clashed in Louisville before the Kentucky Derby horse race, following which, Rochester police used tear gas to settle the situation. In the afternoon, hundreds of protesters marched toward the Churchill Downs track in Lousiville chanting "No Justice, No Derby" — a nod to activists’ calls to cancel the annual race, which was being held without spectators because of the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
Separately, roughly 250 members of a Black militia group named NFAC
... Not Fucking Around Coalition, an all-Black, gun-toting Antifa paramilitary group that wants a Wakanda for every Black person in America. They first came to our attention when they marched on Stone Mountain on July 4th...
that has protested against the police killings of Black people assembled outside Churchill Downs, all armed with long guns.

NFAC leader John "Grandmaster Jay" Johnson taunted the officers standing guard in front of the track, but the group later retreated without incident.

Louisville has emerged as a key flashpoint in the summer of unrest because of outrage over the death of Breonna Taylor, a 26-year-old Black woman who was killed in March when the city’s police burst into her apartment using a so-called "no-knock" arrest warrant that did not require them to announce themselves.

Sadiqa Reynolds, president of the Louisville Urban League, said that while the race was not canceled as hoped she believes demands of protesters, which include holding officers involved in Taylor’s death accountable, were heard.

"Today was a show of force from the community of Lousiville to say that enough is enough," she told Rooters. "We are tired of our lives not mattering."

Earlier on Saturday, a group of counter-protesters, brandishing pistols and long guns, squared off with Black Lives Matter protesters and got into shoving matches in a park downtown. People on both sides screamed, faces inches apart. After about 45 minutes, police cleared the people from the park, but the protests outside Churchill Downs continued.
All those people openly carrying, and not one shootout or massacre? How can that be??
The counter-protesters included about 250 pro-police demonstrators, including Dylan Stevens, who goes by the nickname "The Angry Viking" and claims to lead a group of what he calls "Patriots." According to his website, Stevens supports Republican President Donald Trump
...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party...
, the police, the military, and the right to bear arms.
Obviously. And who do the Antifa groups support, pray tell?

#2  Taylor is the only case that I'm really pissed at.

No Knock warrants and such should be mostly stopped and the ones that should be punished for mistakes are the politicians that signed off on it.

PKK Confirms Death of Senior Commander During Turkish Airstrike
[THEBAGHDADPOST] The Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) confirmed on Sunday that Abdul Rahman Hamo, known as Dozdar Hamo, was killed in a Ottoman Turkish Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
The media outlets affiliated with the party said Hamo was killed in November 2019 during an airstrike by the Ottoman Turkish jets on Mount Qandil.

However,
the difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits...
it was not clear why the party confirmed his death almost 10 months after the airstrike.

Hamo was born in 1969 in Afrin, the Syrian Kurdistan, and he joined the PKK 1990. He held different positions at the media and press departments of the PKK until he reached senior positions as a military commander.
