If you don't have anything of value in the state, there isn't anything they can do about it. They don't have any way of enforcing it.

Watch the death spiral unfold. Increase the tax on rich people. Rich people move out. Increase the tax on middle class. The middle class people move out. Cuomo scratches his head why there is still a budget shortfall when he is taxing 100% of the income from hobos, the only ones left.

Ah, so this is the reason plywood costs 3x as much compared with last year.

I'm sure with the hard work of the Portland DA (Antifa), Mayor Wheeler and the Portland City Council, in 2021, we will smash that 2020 record.

It won't get better until it hits rock bottom, until just about every Portland-ite says "Christ, I know I don't vote Republican, but I'm sick of people breaking into my house every month looking for heroin money and having to clean human shit off my shoes each time I try to buy groceries. Maybe we should try some law and order after all."

Realistically the only thing that has helped in areas where crime has gotten out of control is broken-windows policing. Only then when the cops are sitting around bored, spending all their time handing out jaywalking tickets, it's time to defund the police.

I like the reporting over 1,000 days of unreported leave time. He should rename his website to BlueFalconMarine.org

"I could teach anybody, even people in this room, no offense intended, to be a farmer. It’s a process. You dig a hole, you put a seed in, you put dirt on top, add water, up comes the corn. You could learn that. " - Michael Bloomberg, who obviously hasn't ever taken any agricultural classes, and has a dead cactus sitting in his kitchen window

Technically you can put down cardboard and cover it with soil as a legitimate part of a raised garden. But it looks like the guy in charge of the chaz garden got into about 5 minutes of the 30 minute youtube video, worked an hour outside, then called it a day.

Oh, and someone needs to tell them that they will need to wait about 2-3 months before getting anything.

Crickets from MSM. The Ministry of Truth in the Bay Area will send anyone who mentions it to Room 101. The power of the establishment will yell "It's been deboonked"

I love how he strongly condemned the radicalization put forward by black nationalists and affiliated organizations like BLM.

Oh wait, he didn't?

Thank fucking God.

They tried to bury this movement 20 years ago by destroying the Reform party with their trojan horse Pat Buchannan. Their hope was that with the Reform Party destroyed, these voters would be back with the GOP.

Well, we're back baby. And we are it's future.

Because they are borderline sociopaths?

Sociopaths will often adopt external appearances based on what they believe mainstream society values so they can act as chameleons. In today's world, you have the media, silicon valley, most fortune 500 companies all publicly adopting these "woke" positions. So, they will publicly adopt them as well.

But, they are still logical beings. They don't believe in this bullshit. Their private actions when they think no one is paying attention and their public proclamations are completely different.

Humans aren't great at getting rid of these people, and often promote them to positions of power. Look at Governor Newsom, closing down restaurants throughout the state, while getting a private dinner at the French Laundry. Or Nancy Pelosi getting her hair done.

I really think that a lot of the whole critical theory shit being pushed is that the DNC leadership figures "If everyone who isn't white, and maybe 20% of whites vote for us, that's our 51% of the electorate." So, they want everyone to fight each other, while picking up some of the self hating white people.

The media and Hollywood right now are just an extension of the DNC.

Sometimes I think that the Matrix had it right. The mid-90s were the height of our civilization.

Now that the elites aren't worrying that the world will be run from Moscow, they are saying "That authoritarianism sounds pretty sweet if we are the ones in charge."

NYT: We're not naming anyone on the jury, or encouraging voter intimidation. But jurist number 3 is a white man who lives on Spooner street with his wife, son, and two daughters, who drives a white 2003 Kia. Can't recommend that you show up at their house and discuss racial inequities in front of their house at 3AM and remind them that if Derek Chauvin isn't sacrificed on our altar, people will start rioting, starting at jurists number 3's house.

Yeah, the judge and the DA could always immunize him and still compel him to testify. But, I kind of suspect the politically charged DA really doesn't want this testimony.

They can always immunize him.

Of course, the prosecution probably wouldn't want the testimony that "Yeah, we were with Big F. He had a fierce cough that day. He had the COVIDs. So he took cough syrup. That's what we call the heroin because that's in the good cough syrup. We then decided to go and get ourselves some 40s with some money he got as a bouncer the other day. That fucking cracker said it was counterfeit. Then that honkey badge and his chink friend rolled up..."

It gets kind of squirrely to try that. Many places have laws where the tenant can demand the repair, and if it not done promptly, effect the repair themselves and charge the landlord to repair it.

Source: Am landlord.

That being said, credit checks are a thing, and I wouldn't rent my place to someone if they ever skipped out on rent at the old place or got evicted for non-payment.

My priorities for finding a good tenant are:

  1. You are going to pay me, right?
  2. You aren't going to trash the place.
  3. Seriously, you are going to pay me.

I 100% guarantee that once the moratoriums lift (And in uber progressive places, if...) there will probably be some state backed rent guarantee for landlords to actually rent to these people.

I mean, we've known this for 40 years. And it's how Korea and Taiwan modernized before China, and Japan before them.

The globalists took their cut, and left everyone else in the lurch. Why should I pay some guy in Detroit $40 an hour to turn a wrench when I can pay someone in China 20 cents an hour?

What we did fail to do is make sure that we don't sell out our national security and change our manufacturing jobs to cashiers at McDonalds.

People did. For a few hours on one day. It was a few months ago and they put up a giant fence around Washington DC and have the National Guard their to this day.

Welcome to the shitty real word version of Hunger Games.

I dunno. Ordering something off of Ubereats to steal his car sounds more like 'premeditation'. And killing the guy in the act sounds more like 'Murder 1'.

It was also pretty effective at derailing the wider movement from "We shouldn't tax main street to give billions of dollars to billionaire bankers" to "Well, I'm pro-life, so I'm not sure I can support this" and "Well, I don't really own a gun."

Just so, Occupy Wall Street was derailed from "We should give money to people who have lost their job rather than billions of dollars to billionaire bankers" to "Well, I just can't get behind a group that is yelling I hate men, Christians, white people, and heterosexuals."

The billionaire bankers really got their moneys worth by hiring these "professional organizers."
