As good of an article as I’ve read in a long time on the current state of affairs between the Democrats and the rest of us.

My favorite paragraph:

“The left is all about identity politics.  They assign all of us to a group -- racial, class, and/or all of their fabricated gender categories.  The right is all about individuals, their character, their talent, their contributions to society.  We do not care about skin color, economic class or sexual orientation.  We do care about good vs. evil, right vs. wrong.  This makes us quite villainous in the eyes of the left for whom everything is relative. For example, we do not think poverty causes crime, unlearned values of Western Civilization do.  Try to steal an election? It is moral if it takes out an opponent.  We are, it appears, the left vs. the right, very different on a neurological level.”

I bet good money I am far in better shape than you. I am a vegetarian, and I walk 6 miles a day for excercise. I am mentally awake, and morally straight. I try to help my students as much as I can. I gave a C- to a woman because she was 0.01 points away from from being flunked, and I couldn’t flunk her because she was so close. I had to flunk two guys who were supposed to graduate. I didn’t want to do so, but had to. It was up to them to learn, not me. But once I did it I hated myself so much all I could do was go home to drink.

Normally when I drink the rules are no more than one drink an hour, no more than three a night, and of course 8 hours bottle to throttle. After flunking two guys who were both going to graduate the only rule was keep the fucking glass full. The second time I’ve hidden from myself in a bottle, and the first was because I had to flunk a graduating senior.

I don’t need the damn Boy Scouts to figure out how to lead a good life. I figured that stuff all on my own.  What you guys will never get is some people don’t fit into your little fucking boxes and do just fine despite.  Wisdom is the ability to see beyond the lens of your own experience, something I doubt any of you will ever be able to do. And I truly and honestly pity you for it. Being able to see eye to eye with someone truly different from you is one of life’s Greatest pleasures.

Hey douchebag, asechrest was being nice and giving you the last line of the Boy Scout Oath.  You in turn chose to be your typical pompous asshole, only to further enlighten us on your pathetically weak mental status and why you had to turn to the drinking to hide from the results of doing what you felt was the right thing.

Feel free to once again threaten to not come back.  That’s your typical MO and you sound like a broken record. I’m sure two or three people will fawn over you not to leave, giving you the positive feedback you must not get in your real life.  The rest of us could not give a shit.

Loose != Lose

Leave it to the CPA to spell properly.

Trump himself said he would happily own the shutdown in the name of national security. Of course he’s happy to give the Russians and Saudi’s a pass, but some poor schlubs trying to sneak in across our Southen border are a big threat.

Grow up. Trump is playing varsity ball in global international affairs, and you’re playing Stratego in your basement.

I have a local farmer where I buy as much of my produce as I can.  He has chickens, so I get brown eggs.  But he also usually has a selection of vegetables, and fruit in the summer and fall.  I get my tomatoes there as they actually have taste.  The best tomatoes I get, come from my neighbor who grows them.  They taste like real tomatoes.  Totally different from the grocery store.  I have no idea what they sell.

I built my wife 400sf of vegetable garden beds.  About half of that is tomatoes of different varieties, including heirloom tomatoes.  She cans, and last year canned 144 large jars of tomatoes. So if the zombie apocalypse comes, you’re all invited over for spaghetti.

Eric Swalwell (D-CA) is the guy I was referencing previously.

So anything semi auto can be classified "military style", as it is based purely on cosmetics which can be widely defined.  So, Becky start with this one.  They certainly want to ban, and confiscate our LEGALLY OWNED, and responsibly used guns.

OR, prevent you from owning one in the first place.

Tucker Carlson interviewed an New York DEMOCRAT legislator who wrote a bill requiring someone who wants a gun permit to have to turn over all their social media passwords so they can examine your social media accounts to see if you are promoting anything that would deem you to be dangerous.

Who are the fascists again?

Most anti gun people want to ban the scary black gun, but are ok with the "regular" looking gun. Guess what? They are the same gun, a semi-auto rifle that holds 15 rounds that can be shot surprisingly quick.

“Yea but, yea but, yea but ..... uh, with the pistol grip you can ‘spray bullets’.” 

I hate ignorance.  Sadly, ignorant people vote.

^^^^^^^^^^I think you are over thinking it.  Acosta is not rebelling.  He is being intentionally disruptive to deny the President the ability to articulate his message and substituting his own message in an aggressive manner.  If Acosta wants to protest and rebel, he can do so on the air, on any street corner, or public square.  This is the Presidents Press Briefing.  It's his show.  Not Acosta's, nor CNN.  So I think your entire premise is BUNK.

I totally agree, which is why this lawsuit fails on First Amendment grounds.  Acosta is demanding a right TO BE HEARD.  That right doesn’t exist.

People falsely claim that the right of free speech is not absolute. Sorry, but it is. However, in doing so you must also accept the consequences to that speech, so the old canard about not being able to shout “Fire!” In a crowded theater doesn’t fail on limitations to the first amendment.  It fails because the consequences of such action may lead to physical harm and disruption to others.
