    it ebbs and flows. i moved the covid thread because i kept getting political reports. then i've had to clean up a couple other dt threads for political posts. it's spiked recently, and i reckon seeing the reports come in for him is as irritating as it is for me. i'd rather not spend ten minutes editing posts that are political in the dt. it's always the same folks.

    i don't see why it's so difficult to talk about politics things on the political board. 

    This may be skirting some line, but can we identify these folks? If only to highlight to them their bad behavior?

    To turn this back to President Biden. Did you know that Senator Ted Cruz is now tweeting that President Biden is covering for China? Who did not see that coming?

    Dudette, Jyna is the preferred nomenclature

    The Lancet analysis of data on 4.6 million pregnancies in seven countries suggests the risk for black women is 43% higher than for white women. ..... Most of the research was carried out in Sweden, Finland and Denmark, some of the few countries that gather statistics, though data from the US, UK, Canada and Norway was also used.

     

  4. What do you guys want? They absolved themselves from their sins. That makes them hungry and makes a need to build up that list of new sins to ask for forgiveness for. 

  5. Had a Qtard tell me that he was so excited for the point when Biden goes in front of the nation and pulls off his mask to show he was Trump all along. After I got over my shock of the stupidity, I asked if that meant he was a full supporter of the current administration then? He took a few seconds to think and was like, Yeah!

  6. I will not buy into any idea that when taken to extremes, might be bad. I also will not buy into any idea where one anecdotal experience has a kid called an oppressor because that really means that anecdote is the mainstream. However, your anecdotal racial experience was just confusion on your part and our current systems as they are, are the best we should do, even when taken to the extremes. 

    I'm sold.

    There has never been a better time or place for upward mobility.  The model has been proven by people of ALL shades on the pantone scale for multiple decades now.  The conditions of discrimination has never been lower.   

    I ask from page 1 to page 15 what examples anyone can show of a person today of real, substantial, and targeted discrimination today - and all I get back is 400 years of this and 400 years of that (and somehow thats a strawman construct of MINE!).  What can you/me/uncle sam do do to "ameliorate the harm"?  Haven't heard a goddamn thing yet.  Just same old regurgitative victim/savior complex.  Very productive. 

    The BLM movement comes from the recent discrimination from law enforcement. If you can't accept these types of acts as systematic discrimination then you are intentionally obtuse.

    So you're saying you won't respect the rights of the private property owner.

    If you entered my establishment where I have displayed a sign saying that guns are prohibited on the premises and you enter with one anyway, I would reasonably deem that a provocation and that you were a threat to myself and my property.

    Of course he is because what good are rights if you can't push them on everyone, cause they are my rights.

    Gun people are so fucking weird.

    Pretty much all pathetic excuses for men who are trying to prove something. There is no justifiable reason for this legislation, especially given that this state has some of the loosest gun regulations anywhere. The ones applauding this are weak and scared and exactly who shouldn't be open carrying because they will use this for all the wrong reasons. 

    This from a gun owner and hunter whose dad was a collector yet never felt the need to leave the house with one.
