Your snark is predicated on the idea that the GOP actually gives a fuck about their own stated principles, Liberty, The Constitution, Americans, America. and so on and what have you.

Not too shabby for History's Greatest Monster

If we had this law on the books and you went to protest against President Michelle Obama in 2025 and someone a block away threw a brick through a window. You could be arrested on racketeering charges and your house, car and money could be seized by the state and you would be sent to jail.

Would it be a hate crime to flip him over on his back and laugh at him?

Cheese robot was up in Wisconsin, standing in for Scott Walker.

Ditto. There is no way I can survive the roiling rage cocktail of 8 years of a Trump administration. I'm not a young guy anymore. Something inside me has got to give sooner or later.

But I thought that having guns everywhere is supposed to make everyone safer?

They used to be OK with merely disenfranchising black people but they seem to be getting ready to make publicly disagreeing with the GOP a crime for which you can be economically immiserated.

They are trying to pass a law in Arizona that if you are involved in a protest that turns violent you can be arrested on racketeering charges and your civil assets can be seized, even if you did nothing violent. So much for Constitutional Conservatism.

No. Fuck the Republican elected officials as well. They won't look into the Russian influence on Trump and into their meddling in our electoral process. They choose party over country Every. Fucking. Time.

Who plays the Jimmy Stewart Clown-who-never-takes-off-his-makeup-because-he's-on-the-lam-from-the-law part?

Yeah but that's obvi… oh.

That's it, I'm calling a synth-pop jihad on you.

Shit. I'm sitting here trying to recall a Joy Division song but I Remember Nothing.

I want to give him a thumbs up but I'm concerned he might not get that I'm approving of his appropriation of the symbol but rather the symbol itself. So I just smile and nod.

When people think about the Islamic League they always request "Don't You Want Me Baby" but "Sound of the Crowd" is a much better song, IMHO.

Well duh, they started a war!

Nope there is one other acceptable reason. A big African American guy in our neighborhood regularly wears one as a bandanna. He's owning that shit and It's fucking glorious.

It's almost like racism is entirely non cognitive.

You sir, are my new personal hero.
