These race war assholes sure like to talk big, dress in camo, and strut around and try to intimidate, but throw them in jail for a few months and they're bawl babies in court. I'd probably be a mess, too, but they're the ones acting like Rambo. Ready to die for freedom, but more likely to cry.

I hate guns. They serve one purpose, and that is to kill. Not my thing at all.
I would ban the sale of new guns, there are already more than enough here. I would offer good money for buybacks and have them all destroyed.
No guns, no gun violence.
Its so simple really.

As for the social media plague that has swept the world over, I really think its unhealthy for young people, all social media sites should be prevented from engaging with anyone under the age of 18. No "facebook for kidz" bullshit either.

Then again, I am not a parent which is probably for the best for many reasons, lol.

As for me, I have a presence on social media but its just stuff I check once or twice a day for a few minutes. I don't seem to have the addiction myself but I certainly do understand it. Probably also because while I do have a smartphone, I only use it as a phone, I do not do social media with it, ever. I sure as shit don't want facebook to have my phone number, lol. :twitch:

Utah-based apparel company Lions Not Sheep, known for its inflammatory T-shirts that often espouse pro-Second Amendment and pro-Trump messages, has been fined over $200k by the FTC for removing "made in China" labels from it's apparel and replacing them with "made in USA" labels.

For those who deny the horseshoe theory, it is something mighty to behold seeing the right adopt leftist talking points about cops and the FBI. Sure, it's just situational and posturing, but it's still like coming across a unicorn in the wild farting rainbows.

It's been... something, I dunno if "amusing" is the right word... to see a bunch of boot-licking law and order conservatives start freaking out about the FBI because their overriding principle has become "anything trump does can't be bad". It's craven, sure, but it's also unbelievably self-debasing. Which I guess is amusing.

It reveals the only motivating principle, the one thing that cannot be compromised, is power, and anything that is an impediment is an enemy.

But it's fucking weird seeing the echoes of the late 60s, early 70s, with leftist domestic terrorists declaring war on law agencies, stating that they hate America, embracing cultish organizations, marinating in violent rhetoric and actions. More so, what happened then was symptomatic of and an accelerant to the New Deal consensus; this serves the same role but for neoliberalism. As the saying goes, history doesn't repeat itself, but it does rhyme.
