Care to expand?  Do you have an actual ideological position or practical suggestion?  Anything?

"The streets of our cities are safer with this violent agitator removed, and the actions that led to his location are an unmistakable demonstration that the United States will be governed by law, not violent mobs," said Barr.

"removed" - in other words, he is sanctioning extra-judicial killing.

While not having the guts to call it what it was. And... the police claim he pulled his gun. Oddly enough, we have no video yet. I wonder what the delay is, Kid.

But between Trump and Clinton you thought it was Trump, who you think is doing a fine job. And between Trump and Biden, you still think it is Trump.


Waiting for Joe to show me why he should be the choice.

Telling some of his own party to SCREW would be a nice start.


The whole point of running as a unifier is to bring disparate factions together.   Telling people to screw themselves would seem to run counter to that.

Nice. Law and fuckin order!

Armory AR-15 rifle, a Mossberg 500 AB 12-Gauge shotgun, two handguns, a silencer, ammunition, body armor, a drone, a twisted cable survival saw, a dagger and other materials, prosecutors said. They each have criminal records and were not authorized to have any firearms of ammunition, prosecutors said.

Their criminal complaints contained screenshots of Karmo's Facebook page where he posed in all black attire and in one photograph is allegedly holding a gun with a laser.

Hey, Kid! You don't suppose it was these folks that Trump's buddy "on the plane" saw?! Sounds more like them than any of the Antifa crowd.

"The media are simply the PR wing for the Biden campaign at this point," Ben Shapiro reacted.

Neither Edison nor Latimer invented a light bulb.   Most likely Warren de la Rue,  around 1840, made the first light that was a glowing filament inside an evacuated bulb.   

Both Edison and Latimer later advanced the concept towards something commercially viable.   It was Latimer whose modifications to a carbon filament made a light that was practical to mass produce and was affordable. 

Joseph Swan is who I would see as doing the lion's share of the groundwork,  from 1850 - 1878, on developing the filament based bulb.
Revisionist history based on misinterpreting a google search.

https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/arnold-schwarzenegger-offers-pay-reopen-054241298.html

Schwarznegger has taken on the claim that polling places were closed for budgetary reasons by offering to put up the money to reopen them.

Any bets how fast the governance of those southern states takes him up on his generous offer?!

No? You don't think they will?! But the budget! Voting!

GOP voter obstructionist scum.

That includes the denialist scum on this message board.

Check your state's percentage of counted households for the 2020 Census:

https://2020census.gov/en/response-rates/nrfu.html?utm_campaign=20200904msc20s1ccallnl&utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery&fbclid=IwAR2YmEoy7NdrvioITwhKd-TnwaCWyST1kuqQT1CAUaDiUPv0Ty-_w0iwmlM

7 of the bottom ten are the states east of Texas and South of Virginia.

Arkansas and Tennessee are the only two not in the bottom ten and they are not usually considered "Southeastern United States.

Two of the other three in the bottom ten are also south - Arizona and New Mexico. The last is Montana. Oklahoma and Texas are 11th and 12th lowest.

Trump has sought to use the protests as a chance to paint Trump as the "law and order" candidate, with his administration deploying unidentified armed soldiers who detained protesters without cause, transporting them in unmarked vehicles to undisclosed locations.

Meanwhile, the campaign has maligned Democratic nominee and former Vice President Joe Biden as an anti-law enforcement who encourages riots, though Biden has unequivocally denied violence and property destruction on multiple occasions.

But findings from a new poll indicate that the tactic isn't working.

A new Harvard CAPS-Harris poll found Biden not only leading by seven points nationally among likely voters, but he also bests Trump on race, policing, and law and order—all areas in which the Trump campaign has tried to paint him as weak.
