Unfortunately, most heroes of Texas were themselves racist. Sam Houston, William B. Travis, James Bowie, & Stephen F. Austin were a bunch of guys who rebelled against the legitimate government of the time (Mexico) because they were pissed off that Mexico didn’t allow them to keep their slaves.

Also, way to miss the…

So your saying you can’t image why people would feel uncomfortable going to the door of a home festooned with symbols of racism and xenophobia, even if just to deliver a package?

We both agree, that as you put it, “the government is not taking away funds from the military for other things”.

Then you go on to explain why you think they should make an exception to that rule and take away funding for this particular thing that they are already funding?

Your opinion appears to be based on how you…

Funny how the military has trillions to fund figher jets that don’t fly in the rain but have to look under the couch cushions for funding to provide medical care to our military, regardless of why they need treatment. We have the money, it’s a matter of priorities.

Of course then you trot out the old “research has…

That’s an impressive word salad you threw together there. Triggered much?I don’t think you understand what the word “scientifically”actually means.

um, the fact that the military screwed you is not an argument that others should be told to fuck off. Your condition should be covered too.

Slippery slope arguments are bullshit. Where is the line? I don’t know. But we don’t need to know where the line is to know that we haven’t reached it yet.

Ok, I see what you’re getting at now.

I don’t think most of us would say there was no risk at all, even with insurance and tax write offs and so on. All people were doing was saying the dealership was wrong, period. When you balance all factors, morality vs financial vs whatever else you want to consider, the dealer was still in the wrong. He took…

Monetary loss is only one kind of loss. The hit to their reputation and the resultant lost business may well end up costing more. I’m not an idiot, I do realize a tax write off isn’t 1:1. I’m simply saying that an ethical business owner would have accepted the risk of loss as a cost of doing business but as I…

I disagree, let’s compare alt-right douchbags to 3 year old children. Similar mindset, similar intelligence, similar desire to push boundaries. If child#1 is wailing on child#2 with a toy sword to the point that it makes the other childchild#2 cry, you take away the toy sword.

Now child#1 then picks up another toy and…

Which they then write off for tax purposes. Just tell the truth, you think that the needs of business owners should come before the needs of individual citizens. It’s easier than arguing with you.

Irrelevant, the insurance would pay to replace the dealers stock and the hypothetical customer will still be able to buy his car with an appropriate markup applied.

be that as it may, even if it’s a total loss it still was not their car to crush.

Nor do the dealerships.

Totally unrelated but can anyone explain why people obscure their license plates in pictures? I mean, anyone who sees the car in person can also view the tag number so it seems kind of silly.

Ok, how about the idea that reporters are supposed to report on events, they are not supposed to get involved. This wasn’t a life or death situation, it was property being stolen. Meanwhile, the cops were already busy with more important matters of actual life and death and this dumb ass reporter diverted them away…

using such a horn purposely in such a manner could lead to criminal charges of their own. Their are limits to how and when you may use your horn.

human rights are not vehicle rights. Just because you have the right to freedom of movement does not mean you have the right to use a car in any circumstance where you desire to exercise that freedom. “Freedom of movement” says nothing about HOW you convey yourself from place to place, only that you are allowed to do…

You are not your car. As long as you can get out of your car and walk away your movement is not restricted.
