I would suggest that Alabama and Wrest Vagina go their own way and secede with all the other deep red cracker states and form a republic called Gilead, where women know their place and wear white cowls around their faces and "reproductive rights" means "the right of men to plan families and maintain bloodlines."  Anyone violating their sacred duty as breeding maid or wetnurse will be given a choice of stoning or, in Deep South regions, fed to alligators.

Kiid, Red, and Pence have a coast to coast version of Gilead in mind and are more than happy to spill rivers of American blood to achieve it.

Another day another mass shooting...

Prayers for the people, action from our representatives.

How did the ex-marine with PTSD get into a bar with a modified handgun in the first place?

Like at the synagogue recently, absolute security would've saved lives.

No new off-shore gas or oil exploration.

100% renewable energy by 2035.

Carbon neutral by 2050.

Of course, that govt won't be around in 2035 to explain why its target wasn't met.

It is a good policy to have though...the voters love it, it's getting politicians elected.

On my radio yesterday I was told that "climate change" is a Marxist conspiracy.

He walked up to the security guard at the door and shot him. When the cops got on scene he shot them, too.

Does every bar need a fortified entrance?

How about fewer people with known mental issues having less access to weapons?

Wasnt the first person he shot the security guy?

And there is no absolute security. Those five locks you installed on your mom's basement door? Child's play if the really want in. And those guns? What if there are more people than ammo? You are.dead mate. They are coming for you! They are right outside your door!

All those Marxist climate scientists!

Who knew that was a requirement for getting a degree in that field?! (And the climate scientists I know would be very surprised.)

Hey Bart, I messaged you....

Hi,  Yank.   I can't find any new message in my folder.   If there's a continued snafu,  use this email box:  [email protected]

My previous post is entirely in jest,  BTW.   I want the Republic to survive,  and I have old friends in a couple southern states who would be among millions who would not thrive in "Gilead." 

I do think there are too many alligators.  Is the shoe industry listening?

Not sure what happened to my message, Bart, not in my sent box either.

Will re-write and send to e-mail address you provided.

Given that impeachment is only an indictment (by simple majority in the House), there would be no point to it now, given that there could be no conviction by supermajority in the Senate, where an impeachment case is tried.  With the present Senate, a House impeachment would be a symbolic measure.  And one that would antagonize the antiChrist President to the point where he could lash out in ways that could be very dangerous to the world.  I think the strategy has to be keep the President strutting back and forth in his gilded cage and as calm as possible.


Did I make the Iggy List?  Fingers crossed!

You called Trump the Antichrist.  What do you think?   I agree with your strategic Antichrist containment policy.   This is not a time for democrats to be seen as makers of symbolic gestures.  Especially against nuke armed sociopaths.  For them, handcuffs and Hannibal Lecter bite-shields are the safest course.

Yes

Fewer people with known mental issues having less access to weapons would also be a good idea.
A fortified/physical barriers entrance would protect from psychos of all types.

There are metal detectors at some US school entrances....the cost is not prohibitive.

Neil Young has once.again asked Trump to stop using Rockin' in the Free World at rallies. However, he is fine with Trump using this one:
