I was thinking about the two liberal female podcasters laughing at the murder of Charlie Kirk (they say it was the joke about it but, yeah right...). There have been a number of high profile people make light of and laugh about Charlie Kirk being murdered and now Dave Chappelle is in that group who mocked his assasination. His comment, "Ever since that guy Charlie Kirk got murdered, I feel better."

This just seems impossible to me to delight in the murder of anyone, especially one whose whole mission in life was to debate his ideas peacefully. There are plenty of people on the left I'm friends with. They are good people, they just believe differently than I do and that's OK.

Then it dawned on me what the difference is. I imagine those on the left are good people who believe differently than I do. For the potion of the left who are OK with political violence, they imagine the people on the right are inherently bad people because they don't hold the beliefs of the left.

If they were "good" people, they would believe like those on the left. Because they hold different beliefs, they are bad people and worthy of violence.

I can think of no other reasonable explanation for why this would be the case.

If you are one of the folks who are happy about his death, please share your feelings why you feel this way.

I got a dollar that says they’d never try that on folks practicing islam.

I laugh when I see cop videos and cops say “I have the right…”.

Ummm, no. You are an agent of the government. The government doesn’t have rights. You may have authority under the government to perform actions, but you have zero rights with that uniform on in an official capacity.

To your point, the government didn’t grant you the rights you have. They are unalienable and granted by God. Therefore they can’t take them, they aren’t theirs to take. They can try but they are yours, “if you can keep them”.

How do people on the left say with a straight face that the "right" is the party of violence while laughing about someone being murdered for having a conversation?

I guess when your education stops at the headline of what ever liberal propaganda you are ingesting that's possible.

The guy that shot Charlie Kirk was "MAGA"? How is it possible to be that ignorant about what happened and what came from the shooters own mouth?

Let me play out a scenario for you. You are the OP, you decide that staying home because you’re sick and contagious just “isn’t for you”.

The OP decides to go to work because he’s bored and gives his upper respiratory infection to his coworker. His coworker has a family member with a compromised immune system, or some other medical condition that has compromised their breathing. He passes along the “only bothersome” upper respiratory infection to the family member and it’s a life threatening illness.

This is my life. If someone coughs at work or looks remotely sick, I pack up my stuff and leave immediately. I have to. My wife has ALS and her breathing is compromised. She gets an upper respiratory infection and it could potentially kill her.

While I get you don’t want to miss work, it’s not all about you. If you don’t like being sick, do you think the other people you are going to infect are going to like it any more than you do? What other damage could you be doing?

Absolutely, because people who believe that Guam is in danger of flipping over should have a voice in the direction of AI.

Makes perfect sense.

My house was $94,000 dollars. I had a GOOD job, and my total compensation was like 52k a year in 1997. I did a VA loan and financed 100%. I am pretty frugal but had no savings at the time.

I drove a Nissan Sentra. No expensive hobbies, no drinking, no vacations. I was paying for a some land that I had purchased but that was my only real bill. It was like 700 a month. That said, we couldn't really afford to go out and eat once most weeks.

That same house is still in a good area and is worth about 205k right now.

Exactly...

Can someone please help me understand when it was better or wasn't hard? In 1994, I was a 22 year old veteran with great work ethic, fresh out of trade school in an industrial field. I passed out 100 resumes in the Baton Rouge area. 50 in work clothes and 50 in a suit. I didn't get a single call back or job offer, not one. I had to move 800 miles to get a job making $10.25 an hour.

In 1997, I came back to Louisiana and purchased my first house. Interest rates were 7-8% on a 30 year mortgage.

Can someone help me understand who might have had it easy "back then", because it sure as hell wasn't me.

They continue to do this because they have had no consequences so far.

I see those folks in Europe and hear that block traffic. I’d love, just once to see someone get out of a car with something like a switch or thin fiberglass rod and just go to work on them. It won’t really hurt them but it will make them reconsider just how much they believe in their cause in the face of consequences.

Most people that do this kind of stuff think “words are violence”. No, violence is violence and she experienced it. Because of that, she’ll never do that again.

At least AI is saving us from death due to global warming.

My wife put in for that study as a participant. I hope and pray she is chosen.
