I am at my breaking point because I dont see our Republican leaders fighting back. There are some exceptions(Blackburn, Burgess Owens, Gaetz, Cruz, Johnson and some others), but for the most part they just seem to roll over and take it.

I am at the point where I have trouble sleeping at night. Things are so fricked up and most of the country is clueless. The liberals will always be brain dead, but whats even more upsetting is most conservatives think Trump will easily win re-election.

Your OP is fantastic and right. fricking. spot. on.

Most sane, intelligent, rational, and mature people should feel that way and I may steal your post (with full credit to you) someday.

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst, and unplug from the news now and again. This should help keep you sane, keep your blood pressure down, and keep you alert for when action on your part might be required. Might be violence, might be some kind words, might be tutelage on your part as positive action to stay ahead of the evil shitting on everything.

Just be alert, keep yourself in balance, and don’t let the bastards grind you down.

The solution to this is shutting down the woke factories that these people come from. IE the college campus.


And that is why I am willing to give up the NFL and even my beloved Tigers for a couple of years if it also means shutting down the accompanying universities and watching the pros and profs wriggle on the hook of realism.

I've reached the point that, while it disgusts me, I may have to become a real trigger puller. Granted, I've done it on paper for 23 years. Still, doing it on an actual human is reprehensible to me, but here we are. It's unfortunate that I didn't cause this, but that someone in Minneapolis wearing the same uniform did.

You’re not wrong.My only hope is enough moderates on the Left come to their senses and realize that the war on police is going to unleash holy hell in the large cities.It’s already happening and I hope it gets worse quickly,before the election.I know that sounds harsh,I feel terrible for innocent people that are harmed.But,on the other hand,the majority voted for these fricktards that institute these pie in the sky policies that are detrimental to the citizenry.

Are you saying that you are experiencing some taxation without true representation?

"I come not to bring peace...but a sword..." (Jesus, re His 'Second Coming').

Pray for mercy; especially if you have dearly-loved people around you.

BTW, I've talked to a lot of people who are of the mindset that you are; they are watching, preparing and becoming more pissed by the day. There will be a breaking point - some event most likely - and it'll snowball from there. Like the 'Arab Spring' thing where a farmer burned himself...or those Syrian teenager wrote anti-government graffiti on the wall and were whacked by the government.

It'll likely be some for of 'martial law' after the election, fast if Trump wins...and slower if Biden wins. 'Wining' of course, to be in the eye of the beholder; as electoral legitimacy will be absent.

Good luck. Or God speed. You are honest; that's something.

I want it to be clear that I do not actually believe any human being is better than any another human being solely because of their skin color.


Funny, I think the exact opposite.

Obviously, races have different genetic structures which give them certain traits which in some cases might be positive or negative comparatively to other races. To deny this would be ignorant.

The lie is we should all pretend that there is no bias based on whatever color you are, this goes for everyone. I tend to try as much as possible to ignore skin color but it also depends on the situation.

I also think its impossible to say everyone should like everyone else - its a lie. I actually see nothing wrong with a person that doesn't like white people or black people or orange people (generally speaking), however, for people to actually function in a society there has to be level of human respect.

As far as the government, we're all the government, the government and their subdivisions should be color blind. Meaning if someone is being discriminated against, we as a society and being a part of the government should take steps to remedy.

We don't owe anyone acceptance, we do have some measured responsibility to not interfere with others pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.

This is all you needed to say. It sums up everything and defines who you are. Rather than behave like a petulant child, make an effort to educate yourself.
