Reading kid's posts in this forum, I ask myself, does he believe what he posts, or is he just trolling the board for his amusement.

Either way its fucked up, he's either a racist/bigot or someone who isn't bright enough to understand or care about the corrosive and dangerous nature of prejudice on our country.

But I suspect its a little of both, he a racist, not very bright, and lacks the capacity to reason much beyond his immediate needs.

nice spin you coward,

it was you who shit your pants, when I told you I had discussed your internet stalking with the Essex county DA.

your 180 denials were fucking hilarious

But thanks once again for confirming you're nothing but a perverted indecent stalker.

but why don't you buddy up with kid, you guys seem well matched.

Still playing to the crowd, yellow one.

Utley seems to be a contraction for Utterly Nutty. Utz, you’ve gone nose blind to your own bat shit posts.

As for Antifa, the defense is simple. If you punch enough fascists hard enough early enough in their attempts to organize, you don’t have to go back around later and shoot them once they’ve gotten a head of steam.

As for trump, he’s utterly indefensible which is why all attempts to defend him are farcical failures.

As for Kiid, it was not wise of him to renounce his citizenship for another stab at his lost cause.

Crack is wack and crackers are wacker. Say no to both.

From CNN:

Brennan has publicly talked about that vote -- for Gus Hall for president in the 1970s -- but Trump was more concerned with the '50s on Sunday.

"Study the late Joseph McCarthy, because we are now in period with Mueller and his gang that make Joseph McCarthy look like a baby! Rigged Witch Hunt!" Trump said on Twitter.

The President may very well have studied McCarthy; in New York in the '70s, Trump was a protege of Roy Cohn, the lawyer who decades earlier helped McCarthy try to root out communists and allege ties to the Soviet Union.


McCarthy's effort, now seen almost universally as a stain on the country, saw him and Cohn run wild as they ruined lives and ginned up the Red Scare, alleging a communist infiltration in the State Department and producing a list of names he said were the culprits. He later held hearings about alleged communist sympathies in the Army. (Stylistically, McCarthy's secret list of communists and the innuendo he used to frighten Americans with a communist conspiracy theory shares more similarities with Trump's allegations of a "deep state" and his growing list of current and former government officials, including Brennan, whose security clearances Trump has either revoked or is reviewing).

Cohn, by the way, later worked with Roger Stone, an early Trump political ally who now figures in the Mueller investigation.

Trump appearing with Roy Cohn, who died in 1986.

Trump's ties to McCarthy are stronger than any comparison of McCarthy to Mueller, who is not a senator trying to use public hearings and reports for political gain, but rather a special counsel who by all accounts is proceeding quietly and methodically.

"We had a great talk yesterday," Trump said of his meeting with Scott. "I think especially in light of the advent of Antifa, if you look at what's going on there. You have some pretty bad dudes on the other side also, and essentially that's what I said. Now, because of what's happened since then with Antifa — you look at really what's happened since Charlottesville, a lot of people are saying and people have actually written, 'Gee, Trump might have a point.' I said, 'You've got some very bad people on the other side also,' which is true."


https://www.cnn.com/2017/09/14/politics/trump-antifa-charlottesville-tim-scott/index.html

You failed to quote Scott's response:

"My response was that, while that's true ... the real picture has nothing to do with who is on the other side. It has to do with the affirmation of hate groups who over three centuries of this country's history have made it their mission to create upheaval in minority communities as their reason for existence," Scott said Wednesday.

"I shared my thoughts of the last three centuries of challenges from white supremacists, white nationalists, KKK, Nazis. So there's no way to find an equilibrium when you have three centuries of history versus the situation that is occurring today," he added.


The fact that the President of the United States could spend that much time providing that much quote on the situation without once even mentioning White Supremacists (let alone condemning them) is extraordinarily bad.  Its a horror show.  And sorry, the only way you can not see that is if you sympathize with those White Supremacists.

Scott has it right....there is an attempt to create an equilibrium between the two sides that is self-evidently false.  One side would not exist without the horrors committed by the other.  That doesn't mean they are equivalent.  And by concentrating only on methodology, and not on the message you are purposfullly obfuscating your acceptance of race-based hatred.

Its a common technique employed by racists in an age when being openly racist is disqualifying.  You sympathize with the guys wearing white cloaks, so create a boogy man on the other side.  The Black Panthers, a distorted version of what BLM is, and now Antifa. 

"They beat people up too."

Who the fuck cares.  They wouldn't be there if there weren't Nazis marching in the streets.

A good check-in on how great Donald Trump's foreign policy has been (a few people here actually think it has been!)  The biggest moment of his Presidency is a complete sham:

https://www.brookings.edu/blog/order-from-chaos/2018/08/13/trump-did-not-solve-the-north-korea-problem-in-singapore-in-fact-the-threat-has-only-grown/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=fp

Trump and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo swatted away such concerns, asserting that the two leaders had reached a clear understanding in their private exchange. They pointed to North Korea’s return of remains of American soldiers and its dismantlement of a satellite launch site as evidence of progress. Trump went even further, proclaiming that the North Korea nuclear problem had been “solved.” This likely reflected his faith in the importance of personal relationships and his belief that he and Kim had forged a personal bond in Singapore, and therefore the threat from North Korea had diminished.

But the problem has not been solved and in fact the threat has only grown since Singapore. In the intervening weeks, North Korea reportedly has been upgrading nuclear and missile facilities, increasing production of fuel for nuclear bombs at secret sites, building new long-range missiles, and exploring ways to hide the extent of its nuclear weapons program from the United States. While these reported activities do not violate the vague text of the Singapore summit joint statement, they shatter its spirit. Perhaps more importantly, they call into question the underlying assumption of Trump’s engagement with Kim Jong-un in the first place—that North Korea wants to exchange its nuclear and missile programs for a more prosperous future for its people.
