Jaybate, what is your gut telling you with these pipe bombs?
-
@Gorilla72 They can’t wear American flag symbols?! What a joke. Sad thing is liberals and Dems are OK with that, and more worried about the illegals.
-
@Woodrow I love it when I am told what I think! Thanks for that!
-
I am waiting for you Limbaugh woofers to try to justify the baseless accusations that the bombs were sent by a liberal. Must have been a really deep plant to be willing to have stickers with Dems in crosshairs.
-
@bcjayhawk I saw that. Democrats shoot people at softball games, and republicans send pipe bombs. That’s why I’m neither.
-
@KUSTEVE There is no equivalency here. Let’s see, one Republican was shot, and a few have gotten shouted at. On the other side, a democrat was shot in AZ, a right winger attacked a DC pizzaria accused by unhinged RWers of being a Clinton pedophilia center, a RWer killed a peaceful marcher in Charlottesville, anti-abortion RWers have bombed clinics and killed doctors and nurses, the President praises a campaign staffer for criminal assault on a journalist while the world stands horrified by a journalist’s assassination, and he has also encouraged police brutality in arrests during a time of horrible upheaval due to police killings of unarmed suspects and even innocent people in their own houses. And that is just part of it. When you notice you are on the side of the guys carrying Nazi flags, it might be time to step back and examine what in the hell you are doing.
-
@Gorilla72 Thank you for sharing the issues as you see them with specific details. We are so bad at talking in this country, and this sort of explanation is very valuable. Why would you be done with the political section after you shared a detailed explanation of your stance in I think pretty reasonable terms? In my mind, this is the exact kind of honest detail that should bring us closer to a place of resolution and compromise. Thanks man.
-
@mayjay The situation has deteriorated to where they are shooting people at softball games, and they are sending pipe bombs through the mail. This is all by design. You can’t overthrow a government without pure rage, and both sides are driving people crazy…They are agitating for a civil war, and this is what it looks like. It’s alot easier to overthrow a country when they are at war with themselves.
-
@Gorilla72 I’m really sorry! It’s nothing like that where I live.

@BShark If you don’t want to take the red pill now, it’s ok. But it won’t be long now where there won’t be a choice.
Yeah I’m not big on conspiracies. US corporations have long controlled Central and South America though, if we are being honest.
-
@mayjay That pretty much makes my point. I’m sure they have a list, too. We’re comparing lists to condemn and marginalize the other side as the evil ones, when in reality, none of the crazies ever represent the vast majority of their party. These are the true believers, who have swallowed whole the rhetoric that each side spew on an everyday basis. Both sides want you to think the other side is just like that terrorist that tried to blow people up, or shoot them. The Borg is itching to have as much conflict and turmoil as possible. This division is a planned event. Everybody is in on it except us, and we’re the unwitting fools walking straight into our own demise. I don’t think we have the capacity to fully understand how bad it will be.

The Chinese are all over Latin America and America companies don’t have the influence they once did.

Seems to be quite the dedicated Trump supporter.
You mean like the shooter that was A Bernie supporter that unloaded and shot a Republican representative at a base ball game? You mean like that kind of supporter?

Really? You have Liberals running around dressed up as ninjas with pack packs full of batteries disturbing those that disagree with them? OH but they are peace free speech loving people. And when was the last time a Liberal was banned from a college from speaking? Shall I go on. When have you seen a Liberal been attacked while they are trying to eat a peaceful dinner?
Oh you want to bring up Nazi flags. Um do some homework your Dem party was the party of slavery. Your party could care less about the black Americans of this country. Just as long as the vote Dem. OH see Trump lowest black unemployment in the history of this country? Yet no ok maybe he not a racist? Nope. Spare me your Nazi talk. See above about free speech. It isn’t Conservatives that are blocking free speech.
All you have is some crazy fuck that mailed a bunch bombs than had no chance of going off.
-
Noticed how this terrorist that did this went from facing 68 years in prison to 58 to now 48 years? What’s going on. I wouldn’t be surprised if this douche bad walks free.
-
@DoubleDD language!
-
Yea @mayjay That is Steve Scalise shot by a crazy Bernie Sanders Lib.
Not one Rep/conservative blamed Bernie Sanders or the Dem party. Yet here we are now and Trump and his voters are getting blamed for a crazy person that sent out a bunch of so called bombs.
Oh please tell me again how we need to check ourselves? Maybe I just need to drink the koolade your drinking?

Why? This guy was a douche bag. Lets call it for what it is.
-
@DoubleDD So, either your memory is as bad as your logic, or you are purposely lying, or you just simply let yourself believe whatever crap your fearless leaders feed you. Republicans jumped all over Democrats for the Scalise shooting. Here is a summary of some:
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/after-shooting-some-gop-blame-incitement-democrats-n772586
Since you probably won’t read that because it comes from an MSM source, try Googling “Republicans blame Democrats for shooting” or put it into any search engine you want.
Amazing what people do to avoid thinking on their own.
-
That van feels like it almost has to be fake. Like…what in the world…
-
I apologize as I think you really wanted to have a honest debate.
This guy is crap and deserves the death penalty in my thoughts.
@mayjay you still didn’t answer the question? Why can’t you give props when they are deserved? Black unemployment is the lowest in the history of this country. Under Trumps watch. Why can’t you be happy about it? Why because it wasn’t your party and your leaders? I"m so tired of people like you throwing around Nazism and KKK when it comes to the Republican party. What about the Dem party? Wasn’t Communist backing the Dem party and their flavor? What you forget old Uncle Joe? The man that killed more people than Hitler. Does not history show that the Dem party was the party of slavery? Did we not see Hillary your parties girl have so much respect for a KKK leader? Yea you like to dish it out but you don’t like to take it. Do you need to go to that safe place?
Show me one link where Obama got blamed for Steve Scalise. And don’t come up with some way crazy web link. Try to stay main stream. Can you do that?
-
@DoubleDD good gosh you are crazy!

OH and your of a sound mind? Now just do what your told.

@DoubleDD Your little group of extremists includes Nazis NOW. If you want to go back to the Dems in the 1800’s and the 30’s enjoy the trip.
You posted originally: “Not one Rep/conservative blamed Bernie Sanders or the Dem party.” So the NBC article, which isn’t mainstream enough for you, refutes that. Just admit you forgot, or just keep embarrassing yourself. I am done with anyone who cannot see all those Trump stickers on the MAGAbomber’s van.

Oh I see your still avoiding the question? Ok I’ll start. I love that Obama Care brought about that Insurances companies can’t preclude those with preexisting conditions. A worthy and noble fight that should be considered when voting.
Now your turn? Yea that’s what I thought. If you and your Dem party cared so much about the Black Americans of this country why can’t you just be happy that we finally have a president that has lowered the unemployment rate of Black Americans to the lowest rate in the history of this country?
Still no go? Yea that’s what I thought.

@BShark @approxinfinity Somebody please, dear God, close this thread. It is just painful.
-
Trump has used stirring up hate and divisiveness as his platform, so I do think it is fair to say he played a role in some of the recent events. You can’t shake up a soda can and then say oh it’s not my fault when it sprays everywhere.

Fair enough but you don’t think the Dem party doesn’t deserve some of the blame?
-
@DoubleDD I think Trump it to blame, not either particular party. Though the two party system in itself creates divisiveness and is an issue. Too many people make everything us vs them and vote straight Dem or Rep tickets w/o considering issues and voting records…
-
Ok explain why?
-
Lets keep in mind Trump has gotten blamed and accused of everything under the sun?
-
At some point a person says come on.
-
Is he guilty of some things sure, but is he to blame for everything? I don’t think so.
-
I wasn’t a big fan of Obama but I didn’t blame him for everything and I voted for him in his second term.
-
Believe it or not I’m not a big fan of Obama either. At the end of the day he was just full of platitudes and really didn’t do much of anything. Pushed a highly compromised health care bill through. The Democrats could have pushed things through in Obama’s first two years. So what did they actually do? They bailed out the upper ownership of the banks, expanded the insurance industry, moderately expanded Medicaid, and passed an okay stimulus bill. And the military (Lockheed Martin, Boeing) got their usual big forever raises too. Yet not a single increase to minimum wage.
So, I wouldn’t say I’m hardcore Democrat or Republican. I’m on the side of humanity, and common sense. This is a side that Trump strongly opposes.
-
I"m sorry I didn’t mean it like that. Just I think it’s crazy to blame one person or party for everything.
-
@DoubleDD He is the leader of this country and his campaign ran on divisiveness and white supremacy. The country is now reaping what they sowed when he won the election. Domestic terrorism has been more prevalent than ever under Trump, in part because he’s been encouraging it.
I’m not blaming him for everything, but he is the POTUS and ran on a dangerous and embarrassing platform.
-
@DoubleDD you voted for Obama? Man, have you considered that you might have changed a lot since then?
-
According to the ADL, anti-semitic hate crimes rose 57% in 2017. The largest single year increase on record.

Does not the Dem party preach on the Black vote, the Woman vote, The Latino vote and so on. So are you upset that Trump tapped into the Midwest vote that is mostly white?

No sarcasm needed. You can join @mayjay in that safe place if you want. I voted for Obama because I thought he was the better candidate in his second term.
-
@BShark funny thing… You said you are for humanity and common sense. Trump said this would be the election of Kavanaugh, the caravan, some other wedge issues I can’t recall and… common sense. He’s right about that! I hope common sense is still common and we can elect people that aren’t complicit.
-
@DoubleDD i was being serious. The way you defend Trump I would have assumed you thought Obama was the Devil.
I hope that you are still someone who might vote for the next candidate that isn’t endorsed by Fox if they are the better candidate.
-
Am I upset that he tapped the racist, Nazi vote? Yes I would say that I am.
Obviously not all white people are racist Nazis. Trump absolutely operated on that platform though.

Oh I always vote for the best candidate, but I’m sure we can count on you Msnbc/Cnn Dem candidate regardless of what they say.
-
@DoubleDD I don’t think you will. Sorry man. I just don’t think you would give a liberal candidate a chance, even if he/she were the better option.
I don’t watch MSNBC, or CNN. I watched a little CNN during the Hurricane so I could make fun of their reporting. That’s about it.

Really? There is like 500 Nazi in the whole country. Wake up the KKK is dead. The Dem party created Trump. As they attacked white men. Like somehow white me are racist just because of the color of our skin. Just like the Black Americans rose up and won their freedom so will White Americans rise up against this Dem perception that if your a white an your a sexist and racist.

You’ve never voted for a rep/conservative in your life and your telling me what and how I would vote? Really? Please lets try to be fair. You’re as closed minded as they come.
-
I literally just said not all white people are racist in the same post. Are you even reading what I am writing? Trump operated on racist platforms, period.
@mayjay I feel your pain brother.
-
YOu always want evidence and facts. Ever notice it has to be from the websites and news channels you tap into?
