Thanks old Marine. I needed that.
If this bill makes it, the United States as we know it will be a memory. While the rest of the house is on break, overwhelm them and the senators with calls and letters. I plan on writing a letter a day and an email a day to my representatives. Are they still called representatives since they don’t represent the people? I suggest that everyone does the same. We can only pray that they get the message and listen. I think i am going to be sick now.
If I said that all blacks were criminals I would expect outrage, rightfully so. Therefore I expect outrage when our president says in a round about way that all officers are racists. Are there officers in this country who are racist? I would say that there probably are some. However I find it despicable that our president in my opinion is racist, and has a bias to anyone who has been successful in life. And I also find it troubling that our president can not even answer simple questions from the press. He had very easy questions tonight, yet failed to answer even one question. How hard is it to say yes or no. not give a long campaign speech, skirting around the topic. And another rant. I am sick and tired of this guy blaming the previous administration. Last time I checked, he was a senator, along with several other people in his administration who did nothing to prevent the economic disaster. Probably the worst of the all was Barney Frank who is praised by this president.
First of all as a Police Officer and Oath Keeper I am absolutely offended his comments. He should not have commented on the incident before knowing the FACTS. I do not know the facts so I will not speculate what happened. However I will say that in reference to his comment “that there's a long history in this country of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately”, you have to look at the facts. Fact in my briefing room where suspect descriptions are being given at least 70% of the descriptions are a black male adult or black male juvenile. I do not racially profile however when my suspect is described more than half the time as a black male, yes I am going to stop more black males than say white, hispanic, asian, middle eastern males. Why would I stop a white male when if the suspect is described as black. In fact a department of justce report states “the Black population (which is less than 15% of the population) commits an astounding 52% of all homicide.” So I am offended at these remarks listing all officers in one group.
Leave me and my money alone please!!!!!
Washington needs to stop spending our money. We need to go back to the gold standard. I as an American have a huge issue with China having our debt. What happens when China says we need our money now? Well our current administration would probably just say we will give you west coast in trade. I blame the average American for their ignorance. I was talking with another 9-12er at work the other day about cap and tax (trade). Another coworker overheard and asked “what is going on with the market now?” Are you kidding me? A majority of the country is either not paying attention, or watching the kool-aid drinking media. I think the politicians in Washington know this, and use it to their advantage. I contact my senators and congresswoman frequently. I feel that it does no good, but it’s all I can do to stay sane. I suggest that you do the same and prepare for the worst and pray for the best. I have terrible thoughts as to where this country is going. I just prepare and prey I am wrong.
I find it amazing that if you make a threat to the president you are arrested regardless if you are capable, but if you threaten the country, you are dismissed as silly. And another thing that a lot in Washington are forgetting is that we have thousands of troops in South Korea, and the north has many biological and chemical weapons that they can use. I can say with confidence that I don’t think that the missiles will reach Hawaii, but I know without a doubt that they will reach South Korea. My thoughts are with all of you on the ROK.
I had no idea they existed. I just signed up. Thank you.
I am glad to know I am not the only one preparing.
Freeflight, I must agree with you that the starship was the most beautiful aircraft ever built. shame how they all ended up. Closest I can come now is the cozy I'm building.
