  1. You are a disingenuous piece of shit. The authorities were outnumbered literally hundreds to one. How the fuck do you arrest and handcuff all of these people if you're the cop there?
  2. There is no such thing as a warning shot. Seriously, in any law enforcement engagement protocols, it is not a thing. There WAS A FUCKING "WARNING." It was verbal. And repeated, loudly and urgently. With a gun pointing at her. She disregarded multiple warnings. There is no basis or protocol for issuing an ADDITIONAL "warning" that goes "bang" really loud.
  3. Yep. Here is an ironclad historical truth: You can definitely just walk your way into fascism. But once you're there, you'll have to shoot your way out of fascism. We should probably stop walking on this path. Because we're getting perilously close to the "shoot our way out" part. And the treasonous complicity of the GQP can never be forgotten, and must never be forgiven. The clock is nearly out of time on them choosing to be on the right side of history.
  4. Fucking seriously. What the fuck do you think she was doing? Because in no fucking way was it "peacefully protesting." She was ordered -- repeatedly -- NOT to come any further, as it was a secured area in which federal officers were trying to protect members of congress who the crowd HAD ACTUALLY AND UNDENIABLY THREATENED TO HANG. None of us here are of the opinion that "there's no such thing as a good law enforcement use of force." There absolutely can be. And the situation of "I am protecting people who the crowd is openly threatening to kill, and someone is continuing to force entry into our last stand when I have told them repeatedly to turn back" is about as clean as it fucking gets. Turns out, not much. BECAUSE THAT'S FUCKING WHY THE GOOD GUYS HAVE GUNS. Guns shoot bullets. At attackers. It's literally the whole purpose of "guns."
  5. TLDR. I prefer this version, as a powerful poetic metaphor: "Time to raise the black flag and start slitting throats." The current iteration of our government, which is a lawless regime, must be resisted by all non-violent means possible. We aren't going to convince evil people to stop being evil. That never, ever works. You have to fight them, overwhelm them, defeat them, and either drive them from the land or lock them in a cage.
  6. 2024 job gains (last year of Biden) -- approx TWO MILLION. 2025 job gains (Trump's term) -- approx 600,000. Man, are we tired of the winning yet? I have kids entering the job market. This is super-great. There's not a single fucking aspect of this country, its culture, or its economy, that isn't turning to pure shit as quickly as possible. Thanks, Trumpers. I guess it's all okay and worth it if we get what you REALLY wanted the most in your heart: gestapo thugs shooting people you don't like.
  7. Imagine how much of an undignified, shameless, pathetic cuck you have to be to cosplay in this "outfit": Then his ad campaign and governance strategy makes sense. I'm half tempted to send his office a pack of shop towels for him to use to clean up Trump's jizz from his chin.
  8. Theologically, we really need to start calling the members of the regime what they are: demons. Actual, literal demons. Because their most precious currency is lies. It is their essence. Lying is a religious rite to them. And what do the literal gospels tell us about lies as sacraments? You know, Christians -- the Gospels. The actual books of the bible that are key to creating the distinction between Christianity and judaism. Let's go to John 8:44. 44"You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies." Yep. That's this regime. To the fucking letter. There is no truth in them. When they lie, they speak their native language, for they are liars and servants of the father of lies. If any of you actually believe in demons, and wonder what they would look like if they walked among us, they aren't red-skinned beasts with horns. They are Kristi Noem, JD Vance, Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, and an army of their lesser minions in ICE, DHS, and everywhere else they have infiltrated and festered. If you have ever longed to battle against pure evil....well, it's right here in front of us. Fucking fight.
  9. Interestingly enough, while I love a good fideo loco, it's something I discovered later in life. My family used all of those ingredients, but as two separate dishes: picadillo, and plain fideo (cooked to be a "dry" dish (fideo seco), not soupy). Kinda like this: Super simple. Brown box of dry fideo in oil. Add some diced onion to brown. Add 2 cups knorr chicken broth. Simmer till broth is all absorbed/cooked off. Top with a melty mexican white cheese if you like (I love menonita). It's a great side dish. Or, when you're young/poor, a meal on its own.
  10. The dynamic above is what happens when a not-smart, not-very-competent narcissist sociopath meets a competent narcissist sociopath. That's it. That's the full nature of the dynamic unfolding.
  11. I hope that he finally comes to know himself as a coward, soiling himself as he sees his last moments coming at him as brutal consequences for the craven, cowardly, evil path he has chosen. Cowards tend to get a moment of clarity when faced with pure animal fear. May he be granted such clarity one day. And may I get to see his face as it dawns on him.
  12. None of these dumbasses have figured out the key, ironclad laws of Trumpism. There are laws of the physical universe that will always come to bear -- gravity, for example. You can fight against it, pretend it doesn't exist, all that shit....but eventually, what comes up...must come down. Well, Trumpism has several such laws. Among them is "HE WILL ALWAYS END UP FUCKING YOU OVER." Always. 100% of the time. The ONLY variables are (1) when and (2) how. When you are dealing with someone who truly believes they are the only human being on the planet of any value, rights, etc.....it will ALWAYS end up that way. You are a tool for HIM to achieve HIS goals, which always end in further accumulation of HIS power and self-aggrandizement. You can sit at his right hand and be the favored son today, and tomorrow, he'll put a bullet in the back of your head with a smile if he thinks it will gain him .00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% more power, wealth, or glory. Fucking idiots. Every last one of them. They fell for the shiny, ephemeral object, and ignored the immutable law.
  13. The thing is....he DOES think it's amazing. 45% of Americans have no political beliefs or platform other than "I want a government that hurts people I hate. I want it to hurt them with arrogance and impunity. That's the only thing I care about. Bankrupt the country, openly rape children, burn down everything that we built in the last century, I don't care. Just inflict maximum pain on people, because that's all that government is for, and the only thing it should do." This regime is their dream come true.
  14. They don't care. They never cared. It was all a lie. "Concern" about any issue (pedophilia is a great example) was all a stalking horse, with one goal in mind: installing fascism to inflict pain on people they've decided to hate. That's it. That's the sum total of the belief system of 45% of America: they will support any policy, put up with any horror, so long as they get a government that will hurt the people they have decided to hate, and even better, do so with arrogance and impunity. If the regime simply nabbed brown people off the street, lined them up in front of trenches, and pulled a Katyn Forest massacre to fill the trenches with brown corpses, 45% of America would smile. If ICE simply starts shooting people instead of even trying to arrest them, they will smile. If the regime arrests all trans people and imprisons them, performs forced surgery on them, kills them, what have you, they will smile. 45% of our nation lives only to inflict pain on others. No country comes back from that. The only question that remains is how many people will suffer and die as it all falls apart. The irony is that many of the people within that 45% will be among the victims, because once you create a monster that feeds on the suffering of others....that monster likes to EAT, and it ain't a picky eater.
  15. At this point, it’s just as likely to be a su sponge opinion - without a case being presented - that the regime can kill whoever it wants, whenever and wherever it wants. This court is dead-set on ending the republic. I think they’ll get the job done.
  16. Not yet. But they’re plainly doing all they can to incite it. “Being the kind of evil motherfuckers that every patriotic American should want to shoot” is the plan.
  17. He’s a fucking psychotic child.
  18. Today, I saw something that made me ragey. Driving through Cuero, past a brand new Church’s. Advertised on their sign? Fried livers AND gizzards. WTF? Why do no Church’s in Austin have them? FUCKING CUERO IS KICKING OUR ASS? FUCK!
  19. I said it before, it it seems to bear repeating in light of recent development. We are not in the shit today because we killed Babbit. We are in the shit because we didn’t kill 100 Babbits that day. We should have mowed down the terrorists attacking and attempting to decapitate our government exactly as we would have if they’d been shouting “Allahu Akbar” as they attacked. Treason is only stopped by killing traitors. That is a timeless truth. One we have ignored at our peril. If we ever get the chance to correct that mistake, we must.
  20. I thought "OU Sucks" was implied as a third point.
  21. Not untrue. That said, it's a bit of a hassle getting from LHR to Euston (where your trains to Scotland leave from). Now that the Elizabeth line takes you to St. Pancras, that makes it easier, but it's still nearly an hour process to get to the train station. We've done it, but now that the boy commutes home from Glasgow, it's generally easier for him to fly GLA-LHR-AUS than it is for him to take the train in the UK. But agree, the train is a much more pleasant journey all in all. We were actually right at the border, headed from London to Glasgow on the train, when we got the news that Queen Elizabeth died. It was kinda trippy.
  22. She isn't tacitly saying it. She's saying it. This regime's position is plain. The American people are not a public to be served. They are vassals to be ruled, by any means necessary. We've dealt with this on our shores before. And we had a shitload of collaborators to deal with then, too. We need to be thinking about crossing the Delaware.
  23. AND..... This. It does not matter. Understand that this is the ethos of the regime: They view themselves as lions (even though they are actually bedwetting cosplaying cowardly pieces of shit), and view "we the people" as sheep. The American people are not a public to be served. They are vassals to be ruled. This regime is the greatest threat this nation has ever faced, and its supporters and collaborators among us are included in that truth. We may need to learn some lessons from our fellow human beings in Iran.
  24. Do you know how horrified Josh Hawley will be if he's actually forced to gaze upon his wife's naked body?
  25. It's both not working out great....and probably working out about as well as (or better than) any of the other realistic options. I actually think that, all things considered, the transition is working reasonably well. In realpolitik world, the best choice is quite often the "least bad" option. You can't grade a country like Syria, with its recent history, challenging neighbor relations, etc., with, say, Canada. Syria has a recent history of brutal dictatorial alawite/clan government, active violent islamism within its borders, and a quite hostile neighbor in Israel that doesn't look to be cutting the new government much slack or providing much patience. Not many new governments would create a paradise on earth in the single year they've held power in those circumstances. Will it ultimately work out "well" for Syria? That's a relative concept. So, we'll see. At present, it could be going better. But it also could be going MUCH worse. Iran has a different history and different challenges, as well as different strengths. There is just always the danger of the zeal of revolution creating a new set of similar problems that the previous zealous revolution created. If Iran ends up with a regime that represses with a different flavor of repression, and/or is incapable of the blocking and tackling of government and economic/resource management, then....will things really be that improved? At the end of the day, governments need to do the basics like keeping the wheels of commerce moving, providing basic services (water, power, etc.), and some measure of stability with respect to all those things. Shit, it's why the cartels have some local credibility in some areas of Mexico. You gotta handle those things first. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. We've seen this hopeful dance before in Iran. This time sure looks different. But then, I suspect many of the same people said "this time sure looks different" the last couple of times the people took to the streets (and they were right....it just wasn't enough).
