You’re Be Best at savage burns!

That’s been the strategy of this administration (and beyond), though. Attack the leak and not the content.

Yes but it needs more groundswell right out of the gate. That’s the problem now that makes it unrealistic. Any organization like his will be picked off before they have a chance to grow.

Also, as a sidenote to my other post - laws have been passed to ensure domestic abusers aren’t allowed to own guns and I’m pretty sure that it’s a popular form of “sensible gun control” to extend that to misdemeanor DV charges and not just fealonies. Granted, that’s not the case here but if you’re against gun…

They won’t say shit, just like in the aftermath of Philando Castile’s murder. I mean, sure, they had their black mouthpiece deliver a small statement in the form of a social video, but I don’t recall anything substantial from the NRA themselves.

Thus the nature of the world: cities will always kowtow to business interests. And it’s easy to see why - unless you’re someone who hasn’t totally dehumanized the homeless and low-income, all you see are the benefits and so it’s very easy to pass shit like this through.

That take from Lt. Gen McIerney is fucking brutal.

The major difference being that Nazis and their ilk decide that people are subhuman based on born characteristics, such as race whereas being a Nazi is a choice. And if someone makes that choice then no, they don’t deserve basic human respect because they won’t extend it to people on the basis of things that are…

That predates Reagan, even. It’s been a staple of US foreign policy and has kept us in proxy wars since around WWII. We probably picked it up from the British/Ottoman conflict - Lawrence of Arabia and arming freedom fighters.

Because they don’t see them as rightwing terrorists, they see them as freedom fighters agains Communist terrorists.

I used to laugh. Then I got complacent and one fateful day got my thumb bit by mine.

Zing!

Maybe this is a diabolical plan because they hate the Obamas SO much that they just copy and make a mockery out of everything they’ve ever touched?

Wow. I didn’t even know he was still alive.

It’s almost like a kind of extortion- but instead of extorting someone to do something, you’re extorting them to not.

That’s because the results don’t matter, the theater does.

By that “logic”,

*cough* when they ran into the Russian linebackers *cough*

And if he does, the Secret Service better make sure Rafael Cruz isn’t around!

Yes, I wholeheartedly imagine that St. Barts is just like a hospital in a war zone. Seems completely plausible. Especially coming from a man who totally did not fake having bone spurs, went to Vietnam and saw wartime hospitals first hand.
