  1. Trumps July 4th post literally said he wanted use "REMIGRATION" to maga. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remigration Remigration is a far-right European concept of ethnic cleansing[1] via the mass deportation of non-white immigrants and their descendants, usually including those born in Europe, to their place of racial ancestry.

  3. you seem to be forgetting that no warning whatsoever seems to have reached the camp or town until at least 5AM on July 4th. Fuck talking about voting records, I would like to know if the ball was dropped or if everything went to plan. Because that's a pretty important distinction and thing to know.
  4. Ok yeah, the county approving the additional cabins to be built IN THE FLOODWAY in the 2019 expansion is a problem. Mystic and their insurers are going to have a bad time in litigation with that fact
  5. Thank you for posting a good source on this - I've read it in commentary but hadn't had a good visual from a trustworthy source to show it. That's going to be a big problem for Mystic that they had camper cabins in the floodway of the most dangerous flooding alley in America. I do think the ultimate failure is in no warnings or word (seemingly) reaching the camp, since nobody else got a warning until it was too late too. I really hope that different decisions will be made this time around to prioritize safety.
  6. Strong stuff from this writer, makes a very good case for Roberts being a worse Chief Justice than even Taney or Fuller https://www.publicnotice.co/p/john-roberts-worst-chief-justice-of-all-time closing paragraphs are basically the thesis
  7. From everything we've seen so far, the county wasn't even sending out weather alerts to just their local residents until 5AM through their codeRED alerting system (per NYT reporting and ABC reporting), and many resident didn't actually recieve the flood alert until 10AM on July 4. I really do fear that the campers, counselors, and camp are victims of the state and local leadership's negligence.
  8. "land owner wants cheap labor to do his hard work for his farm, news at 11" I'll bet he's first in line requesting slave prisoner workers
  9. Yeah yeah yeah delays to getting notices and resources out there. BUT BAW GAWD THERES A BLUE ALERT 200 MILES AWAY!!! Really really wonderful reminder of the states priorities
  10. It really has had more than it's fair share of gremlins https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/boeing-investigates-quality-problem-undelivered-787s-sources-say-rcna157034 This is just one of the more recent quality control issues with the airframe production
  11. On that note, at least suppressors may finally come off the NFA. It would make range trips and hunting much more pleasant
  12. You are doing the exact same schtick as the mayor of Kerrville is by shaking your finger and say "SHAME ON YOU" to shout down anyone you see as opposition and smaller than you. But its your board, so ultimately you're right and I'm wrong and we're gonna do it your way.
  13. And if the rules are "facts are for the Cloak Room" then ok cool, let's just be fucking honest and not lie to ourselves.
  14. This is exactly why I disagree with imma's assertion that he doesn't "control the message, [he] doesn't shape the threads". He absofuckinglutely does. He rolled out the red carpet for Pronghorn to blast racist disinformation and known foreign agitprop as a news source, and then the mods swung their dicks around on anyone who points that out. Because "nobody cares if it's lies, it's not against the rules to be an idiot". Yeah, TOTALLY not shaping the narrative or controlling the message to say that they are above reproach and their dogshit and frequently recanted sourcing doesn't smell like shit. It's very literally creating a safe space for disinformation and those who want to disseminate it. And look, I understand that it would just be easier if we like all got along man. But that requires a common set of facts and a single reality. And the way DT is ran, you can simply cry "CR!!!" to paper over any factual vacancies you might have pointed out to you.
