I've always been a strong supporter of the U.S. Armed Forces. I'd roll my eyes when libs would tell me that George Washington was against a standing army. However, given that our standing army seems like it's more and more ready to declare war on Americans than on our nation's enemies, I'm really coming around to the idea that a free nation cannot have a both a standing army and freedom. The mendacity of greed, politics and power will always cause the two, a standing army and freedom, to come into conflict with each other.
"City Council member Kris Lawrence-Anderson said after the meeting that she thought Boganey was “doing a great job,” but she “didn’t want repercussions at a personal level.”
I'd call her a coward but If I was in her shoes, knowing my kids, my husband, my career, my home and my life, would be in danger for not voting to fire Boganey, I honestly don't know what I would do. Boganey kept his integrity, no doubt, but I think most people, like Lawrence -Anderson, will chose safety over integrity. I am so glad I am not in the position of authority where I'd have to chose between doing my job with integrity and being a coward to avoid the mobbing.

how come "letting people be who they are" always involves me having to change what I think and do? No. I don't want to accept men in women only places. I don't want to use made up pronouns. I don't want to change the definition of his and hers to accommodates those who can't tell the difference between a male and a female human. I don't want my church to marry same sex couples, or throuples or whatever comes next. How about if they want their kinks, they keep their kinks away from my rights.
I would leave too.
Resident Zhou Bei Deng doesn't want anti-ChiCom media to have a voice. This is censorship. This is what Putin does. This is what Maduro in Venezuela does. This is what despots and tyrants do.
Deputy Director Floyd Clarke approved it for the FBI. Janet Reno approved it for the Clinton Administration. Both of them also approved shooting incendiary devices into the compound and gassing the over 100 Branch Davidians - including 28 below the age of 13 - with CS for over an hour.

My first red pill was what happened to the Branch Davidians. I was obsessed with it at the time. The propaganda by the media and the ATF and FBI were off the charts. I've followed the lives of everyone involved, from the actual Director of the FBI, Judge William Sessions, who was barred by the Clinton White House from going down to Waco himself and the de facto head, Deputy Director Floyd Clarke, who tried to cover it up. In fact, he may have been the author of the memo that read. "Stop. Too much Brady materiel being generated."
I've watched the complete congressional investigation several times and sifted through all the 1999 inquiries where the FBI admitted they used incendiary devices.
This is the first I've heard about the Branch Davidians rescuing trafficked children. The name of every child that died in the fire is known and all of them were related to Branch Davidians.

In order to arrest one man, David Koresh, who left the compound almost every day for a run or to play music in a bar, the FBI burnt down the Branch Davidian compound and burned 83 people to death. 26 of them were children that the FBI said they were protecting. They were gassed with CS gas for hours. The canisters were shot into the compound along with incendiary devices. The supposed illegal weapons were never found.
Please watch WACO: Rules of Engagement to understand how deeply depraved the actions of the FBI were.
My aunt passed away last week. Her son was only allowed to see her every two days. Her other two sons weren't allowed to see her at all. One of her sons sat outside a window waiting for her to wave at him, his wife and their two kids for 12 hours the day before she died. Staff refused to even wheel her to the window. She died after crying about not being able to see her sons and her grandchildren. It's one thing to read about. It's a whole other thing to watch your adult male cousins cry because they weren't allowed to see their mom for an entire week before she died.
Seems like the world was a lot better prior to WWI, at least in America. The mistake is that progressive liar, Woodrow Wilson, lied about wanting to keep us out of war, among other big whoopers. Ya know, whoopers like having his unelected, unqualified wife run the country instead of handing over the government to the VP when Wilson could no longer function as the President.
The neighbors didn't change their minds. They just wanted to get her to shut up, I bet.
It's just too political for me to trust anything about it. The Dems are pushing it way too much and way too hard for me to think there isn't something radically off about it.
That poor little boy is being abused. He's going to have a very long road to recovery if he ever does recover.
I miss Trump ever day and I hope he runs again because he was the best president of my entire lifetime!
The Chinese who don't view contracts that way, don't get contracts by and large. What you mean though, is that there are Chinese people who hate what has happened to their country, their government, their way of life etc.
There's a guy I heard about, friend of a friend, who had a contract with the Chinese, got totally screwed over. He found out a Chinese guy basically stole his "idea" and the stuff he assembled in China to implement it. He had to get specialized American lawyers to deal with all the bs and they flat out told him, what you thought you signed isn't what you signed and explained to him that although what he said in the contract was in the contract, the translation of it and the fine print, basically said the opposite of what he thought he was signing. He almost lost his entire fortune. I really don't care about him though, other than I feel sorry for anyone that that happens to but somehow, it's harder to care, when I found out, he thought China was going to be nice to him "oh they're so nice". Srsly, all he talked about for a couple of years was how great China was and even sent his kids to a Chinese immersion school because "China is the future.". I feel sorry for him in the sense that his idealism got destroyed but not sorry in the sense that the idiot voted for Jao Bei Deng.
I disagree with you. I think the best way to undermine a control system is to make it ineffective at controlling behavior. What should happen is that 50% of Americans that have Vaccination cards, should have a fake one. Otherwise, eventually, the vaccination cards do become a CCP style social crediting system in which "citizens" are treated to more or less privileges based on how much they comply with the ruling class.
If blacks were trying to make whites feel more comfortable, they might wanna start with less crime and more intact families.
I bet those kids felt more safe climbing on top of that contraption than college students today feel sitting in the middle of a lecture hall.
The hijab is a form of oppression against women. I don't care if a Muslim woman is wearing it voluntarily. Tens of millions of women are forced to wear it involuntarily and can be beaten, fined, arrested, jailed and even raped if they don't. Any religion that has oppression like that needs to keep it's religious practices and symbols out of free countries.
NO LGBTQIA++ MTF was every bullied like this.
and the fathers that don't care about their kids and in their weakness marry women who will tell them what to do.
What Americans and other westerners don't understand is that not a single institution in China views itself as something other than a servant of the Chinese government. All Chinese see every contract as valid only insofar as the Chinese government benefits, economically or otherwise. The moment it is not useful or profitable to the Chinese, the deal is over. They really are like Vader "I altered the deal. Pray I do not alter it further". Unfortunately, the top quintile in American politics and business do not care and refuse to understand this.
Josef* Stalin. Don't put the p on the end of the first name.
This is the year of St.Joseph for Catholics and I don't want any confusion between the commie Josef Stalin and the foster father of our Christ.
