This nation has no concentration camps, does not use masked storm troopers against its residents, doesn't bomb elementary schools, believes in voting rights, has no state-sponsored religion, believes racism still exists, isn't governed by lunatics, and supports the outcast. The weather is great too!

Geez all the problems in the world and this guy decides to spend his time on this? Can't he see his article is an example of the very thing he's complaining about?

First question for MarkWayneWhoTheFuckHasTwoNames: Did you ever shoot a puppy? Second: Did you ever shoot a goat? Third: Will you demask the ICE thugs?

I've had a similar idea: A statute making all corporate political "speech" -- including any lobbying communications by it or its agents -- subject to a requirement that the specific speech or communication at issue be subject to approval by a majority of the corporation's shareholders.

Imagine if this had been done to a Charlie Kirk memorial. Immediate FBI and DOJ investigations plus invocation of martial law.

Whatever happened to the "marketplace of ideas?" If white culture can't cut it, conservatives, does it deserve its continued place of supremacy?

Ha! Getting too old, the joke went right over my Senior Citizen head. I mean, who has a 25 piece patio set? (In fairness, tho, I know some folks in Iowa who are pretty patio-crazed.)

Are videos prohibited? If so, why? We deserve to see how our hard-earned tax dollars are being spent.
