  1. I'm guessing she is smart enough to get even more than 130K for the rights to her story. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  2. True, but so is hanging out here! Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  3. Actually Ron, Americans do not need to understand or read any of the passages in your book of fables. It says so in your Bill of Rights. First Amendment. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  4. Me? Read that post again. Who is the author? You did not write it, why is it not credited? I already know why. The man who wrote it was discredited and forced to resign because it's clearly racist. YOU are the one playing the race card. https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/gop-official-forced-to-resign-after-comparing-immigrants-to-rabid-raccoons/ Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  5. That's how I see it. Skydiving is a motor sport. As is tunnel flying.
  6. Oh Ron. I do so appreciate the sincerity of your post. But that is not how the majority feel, just a sizable minority. Your allusion to vermin makes it so clear how you despise and fear 'coons. The USA that you see in decline is the same nation that I see as being at the peak of it's powers so far. And in ascendancy overall despite the set back of the current situation. America is richer, more powerful and culturally the most advanced nation the world has ever seen. And yet you live in fear of your neighbours and hide in the hills away from the richness of the American experience. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  7. They are beautiful. And powerful as well. I fully understand the attraction. I do not understand the willingness to live in a society full of them. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  8. Today was just another example of the cost of freedom. The dead children should be remembered for their brave sacrifice protecting your rights to have the best toys. Maybe their parents and loved ones can find solace in these words written by Stephen Stills: Daylight again, following me to bed I think about a hundred years ago, how my fathers bled I think I see a valley, covered with bones in blue All the brave soldiers that cannot get older been askin' after You Hear the past a callin', from Ar- -megeddon's side When everyone's talkin' and noone is listenin', how can we Decide? (Do we) find the cost of freedom, buried in the ground Mother earth will swallow you, lay your body down Find the cost of freedom, buried in the ground Mother earth will swallow you, lay your body down (Find the cost of freedom buried in the ground) Remember, freedom is not free.

  9. Yes, another proud day for the NRA. I’ve noticed a few people are getting just a little bit tired of this shit. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  10. He is a member of the bar. We can trust him and take him at his word. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  11. Yes, I did reference how she was vilified. I'm also referencing the general attempt in the right wing media and the Trump camp in general to change the subject. You may not be part of that trend, but it's out there. My 30 minute break is over, time to roll down the IN turnpike for a while! Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  12. I'm not trying to divert anything. If you delete the evidence there is no evidence. Fair enough. If there is illegal activity with Porter the FBI should look into it. So why are you bringing her up? Maybe I'm confused. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  13. Other than the obvious fact that she has been investigated very thoroughly with no charges for a very good reason, she is irrelevant. If the only defence someone can offer is to point at someone else and say what about him or her, they have no defence at all. Diversionary tactics are just a smokescreen. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  14. Yes. Without calling anyone; stupid, liar, or attacking their belief system, or even their ideology. We used to do it. I will have to apologize, but I have a hard time trying to have a reasonable debate with somebody who supports a guy who: * Advocates assaulting women. * On average lies or tells a mistruth multiple times a day. * Attacks a gold star family. * Attacks Mexican Immigrants. * Makes fun of a disabled person. * Hires foreign agents after being told they are. * Advocates for the jailing of his political opponent. * Has public outbursts about the size of his button. * Calls his opponents names. * refuses to read his national intelligence briefing, but allows those without clearance to read it instead. * Calls his opponents Traitors. * Actively undermines a free press. * Supports white supremacists. * Is a racist. All those things get glossed over and there is no serious debate about that. But we should have serious debate about a grand military parade..... This gets at how deeply the situation has sunk. It seems that every day brings a new low. All the things on your list are just the new normal for the POTUS. I know, he’s not our leader, he’s in the US. But even so, the US Is so powerful that it matters for all of us. We all know that it’s probably just a matter of time till he is forced to deal with a crisis. And we all know he is not up to the task. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  15. No matter how much you make that ridiculous claim no on is going to lock her up. Mueller will get as close to the truth as he can. Some people will be locked up. But lucky for cadet bone spurs he can not force Russians to cooperate. . Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  16. Lock him up! But I think there might be a trade mark on the slogan. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  17. I'm pretty sure it has done both. The messaging is under more control and the constant leaking has slowed to a trickle. But he hasn't changed cadet bone spurs. The WH and America still has the same leader. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  18. But we need someone who is willing to actually read this forum to be mod. I read it all the time and it's a huge time suck. I can't imagine just reading it without participating. I don't think it's reasonable to ask someone to babysit it without playing in the sandbox as well. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  19. Or the Gimli Glider. (Gimli is my home DZ) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimli_Glider
  20. Because Imperial is not a base 10 system. It's dog's breakfast of stuff no one can relate to unless they were brought up on it. I'm at the "magic" age. I know both!
  21. I'm still pissed off. In grade 5 (1969) they made us learn metric. Why? Because, they told us, the US is making the change and we need to keep up with our giant southern neighbour. Then the US people told their politicians they did not want to change. So there you are. You indeed are big enough to do whatever the hell you please.

    I suppose you are correct.After all, what is moderation other than good old common sense? No one believes they are nonsensical. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

    Do you consider yourself a moderate? Sometimes. Let me just say that in politics, which is what is being discussed here, you are one of the least moderate people I've encountered online. But that may bear only a passing resemblance to the person you portray in real life. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  24. The truth, as always. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  25. That is exactly what I see. It's surreal isn't it? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
