Like George Carlin said, “It’s a big club and you ain’t in it”.

Then don’t equate them. You can be for ending financial/military support to Ukraine and not be pro-Putin or pro-Russia invasion of Ukraine. Just like if someone was against the invasion of Iraq didn’t mean that they were pro-Saddam Hussein.

Do you really equate being against giving Ukraine tens of billions of dollars (on top of the previous tens of billions) as being pro-Putin?

Manual safeties are no bueno on a handgun IMO.

You obviously didn’t look very hard…aren’t you a comm/cyber guy?

By your logic, the Dems could all vote with the GOP to impeach and then convict Biden so he would be off the ballot in 2024 since he is so unpopular, corrupt, etc. I don’t know what will happen in 2024, and I said 2-3 months ago that I gave Trump a 40% chance at winning…but now I’m definitely giving him at least a 50% chance. Trump could very well win in 2024, and even the Dems are realizing that this is a definite possible outcome. But your post makes it sound like you don’t believe he even has a chance at winning next November?

What do you expect from an administration who won’t even say the term “illegal alien/immigrant”?

I would be very surprised if this isn’t overruled by SCOTUS. The left hates him so much that they’re all about removing him from the ballot under the 14th Amendment without him being charged, and much less, not convicted. So for someone who says they’re all about democracy, etc they sure hate due process.

Great story. Thanks for your courage and service sir 🫡

They said to post your own class patch, not your Dad’s patch.

Slavery was supported by the government then too…

Depends who owns the land that someone is throwing their trash on. If you own the land, then sure, why not? If it’s not my land, then I need to respect the rules for whoever owns the land. But pretty far stretch to bring up littering when others on here don’t have a problem with sending people to die in war against their will or putting citizens in prison just because of their ethnic backgrounds.

So people can indeed (and do) vote for a government that forces people to do/not do things to their neighbors at the barrel of a gun. And I guess in your opinion this is just fine, unless I’m reading you incorrectly? If you’re sticking up for a forceful government over individual liberty, then we’ll just have to agree to disagree. Oh, and if you’re bored, take a look at what the US government did to Japanese Americans in the early 1940s…but hey, it was done by a President who was elected, so I guess it was alright.

They might get an extra seat for free, but are much more likely to not live as long and/or have the same quality of life as those who are not obese. What I find hilarious is how the “everyone is a victim” crowd says it’s not their fault for being obese, it’s hereditary, on medication, blah blah blah. Take a look at obesity rates from 50+ years ago…how much did generics change in that amount of time? Also, look at obesity rates overseas…how different are their genetics on the whole compared to ours? In the end, it will just make it more expensive for the rest of us. And if you think this is bad, wait until you find out another reason as to why our healthcare is so expensive.

You can’t be serious? The only power the government has is force at the ultimate barrel of a gun. Have you ever heard of a “victimless crime”? Let me know if you need just a few examples.

Nah, I just use logic and reasoning vs emotions. But I’m sure you subscribe to the “Liberty for me but not for thee” philosophy.

So send people off to die against their will…sounds like so much freedom and liberty. If enough people won’t voluntarily fight for something they believe in, then it’s not worth it. This is the litmus test…vs just voting for the government to force your neighbors at the barrel of a gun to go to war.

Is this including the college football thread?

Oh man…some of the most dangerous words I’ve heard or read. This means that my liberty and freedom only exist to what elected officials allow me to have…since they were voted in.

It’s always worse going back on what you said then never saying it in the first place.

So “customers of size” flying on SWA can now essentially book two seats for the price of one? Who gets to determine who is a “customer of size” and who isn’t? Because I have no problem identifying as a “customer of size” to always have an open seat next me at no additional cost. https://www.southwest.com/help/booking/extra-seat-policy

If not enough people voluntarily wanted to fight the Nazis, then no, to them it wasn’t worth it. You either have enough volunteers under the terms of an agreement (ie an enlistment) or you don’t. You can use whatever emotional arguments you want, but either you believe in personal freedom to go/not to go a war if asked, or you don’t believe in it. If freedom and liberty and can be suspended then you were never actually free. Don’t forget, democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.
