As I recall, you spoke of smearing when people were simply offering up facts or information. I mentioned the event w/our former moderator because it's a very good example of what smearing really is. ...

It's just a more profound exit. The folks who were proffering "Fair and Balanced" are now saying fairness is bad and wrong and asking, "are the schools brainwashing..."

Oy!:fpalm:

I did not take anything personally. I'm not sure what was inappropriate. Perhaps the comment about laughing? I'm not laughing at any one individual.


I believe there are crisis actors. And I...

I'm laughing but maybe I shouldn't be...

The worst thing that went on when I was in school was knifings and they only happened at the "bad schools". I went to public school. It was a thing of note...

I really like this.

The authoritarian is why anarchy doesn't work. Because there is always the authoritarian who wants to come in and tell you how to live.

When we break down governments we get warlords. They want...

I can see the Deep State taking advantage, but the phenomenon is human, I'm pretty sure. Unless you're saying that most of the shooters have been influenced by these non-humans.

That makes it a...

There are also active shooter drills in office buildings and many other places. These are a response to the phenomenon of people bringing guns into places filled with people and shooting them.

I have a lifetime, well almost 35 adult years, of republicans telling me, “That’s the Right wing. That’s the fringe. They’ll Never take over.”

I got a lotta Joe Six Packs amongst my...

I'm good with facing them down. It doesn't seem to be good practice to open doors and invite them in, though.

Express yourself in front of a mirror too much and you might invite something in...something a little too woo...:nails::hiding:

People try to pretend that they can just discuss the Second Amendment in isolation. Then it's used as the reason to stop the conversation.

That's been going on for a long time. I've run into...

I know you're being serious, NAP, and that is just funny.


The color point is a good one. And a central one.

We used to have a lot of ethnic divides in America and the ghettos were ethnic...

I'll take a stab.

It's related because this issue could lead to war. As in Civil War. Joe Six-Pack is armed for bear and this stuff gets him worked up.

It's related because people, yourself...

An idealist has to hide, to a certain degree, these qualities so they don't get targeted. I learned that the hard way when I was young. It's part of why I'm not an overt activist. My activism is...

I noticed and I waited. I waited to see if he'd come back and answer. It also happened with me before. I waited then, too. Same result. I'm 'emotional' and he's outta here.

Conversations need to...

Our Vice President shot someone in the face. A doctor. There was so much controversy that when the man regained consciousness in the hospital he actually apologized for any upset he might have...

For those who aren't American, a small explanation lies below...



I'm not beating my drum here. In America the Republican party claims these qualities as its own. If you're a Republican than...

That timing is about right isn't it, Fred?

Even now, you have nothing to say about potentially undermining the Bill of Rights by focusing on only one Amendment.

I guess you do think it's OK to...

I would never support efforts to overturn the Second Amendment. It's a stupid idea for reasons that have already been posted.

The last thing we need in this country currently is a Civil War which...
