OFF-TOPIC Thread

Re: Nostradamus and the 3...
FYI...I watched this program with Craig Ferguson where they discuss who was the worst/best whatever of all time. This one was for the worst dictator of all time...actually the second worst. Because Stalin was hands down, number one. Made Adolf look like an amateur...

 

I would vote for Ghenghis Kahn or Pol Pot before I would vote for Clinton.

 

Well its moveon.org, soros and black lives matter inciting the violence around his campaign
And the seated POTUS is the one who opined on every black man killed by a cop and used his rhetoric to further the divide
Remember BO gems like "i don't have all the facts but the cops acted stupidly"?
Not a Trump fan but to blame him for "protestors" that only want to shut down his ability to speak is wholly un American and more like Hitler tactics that anything he's doing
The lady throwing the Hitler salute for the cameras is a liberal btw and now they have people walking around w nazi style armbands that have a T on them
The fact that he is taking hits from all sides shows how scared the political elites really are
Its evident when all the other RNC candidates are mimicking DNC talking points on him
At the same time I still a fear he could be a plant to insure Pillory gets in
We are fucked but like BZ I will take my chances with someone who at least seems like he actually cares about jobs and this country
Btw this is all about to get much worse

 

No shit, Irish...do you know where these guys are in this photo? What part of the world?

 

Scary, man...it's getting positively Orwellian...

 

You're right...and it's about time.

It never made sense to me about all the Republican rhetoric about O'bama polarizing the nation and causing racial unrest when it is clearly idiots like Trump and those that support him that are doing all the hating. Has there ever been a more 'Shallow Hal' candidate?

Again, I'm not a full fledged Clinton advocate, but I'd vote for another Giants World Series victory before I'd vote for Trump.

 

OH...MY...FUCKING...GOD.

 

guess i offended your sensibilities but how about showing me where you think I'm wrong
this is a giant shit show on all sides

 

Lucky me! My first year I can vote for president and this shit show is happening!

Not like I care about politics anyways

 

It is a giant shit show on both sides, but my God man, do you honestly believe Trump is a VICTIM after all the vile and racist things he has said? People don't hate him because he's "right", they hate him because he's a racist, lying, woman hating, bigot.

You realize that quotes like these can and do spark violence?

Last fall, Trump said a Black Lives Matter protester maybe "should have been roughed up."

Trump in February urged his supporters to "knock the crap out of" anybody "getting ready to throw a tomato" and vowed to pay for their legal fees should they face charges.

"Knock the crap out of them, would you? Seriously. OK? Just knock the hell -- I promise you, I will pay for the legal fees. I promise, I promise," Trump said.

And Trump also said he personally wanted to punch a protester "in the face" during a rally in February.

And then back peddles and says:

But at CNN's Republican debate on Thursday, Trump insisted that he did not support violence at his events.

"I certainly do not condone that at all," Trump said, adding, "We have some protesters who are bad dudes. They have done bad things."

And now you think the protests aren't his fault, or he is being victimized? What the fuck? He 100% brought this on himself, practically begged for it. Now he's got it and it's all "woe is me...".

 

I agree that Trump talks a lot of shit but who exactly is instigating the confrontations?
No I do not think Trump is a victim but he certainly isn't going to be intimidated either
No one has the right to disrupt assembly and free speech in this country no matter what some people think
Btw calling him a racist bigot or a woman hating Hitler is just nonsense imo

 

he looks like an oompa loompa w that orange skin spray tan
totally bizarre

 

Disagree. Everyone has the right to assemble and peacefully protest. Always have and always will. By definition, the disruption of free speech IS free speech.

I apologize for being ruffled and out of sorts, I'm sure you understand. Trump rubs me like sandpaper. Just as Hillary rubs you.

Peace, bro.

 

I agree with your statement 100%. The last thing we need is another Kent State, but the way Trump has been handling the messaging about the protestors, I would not be surprised that someone will get seriously hurt or even killed.

As much as Trump has a right to say what he is saying, he also has a responsibility as a potential presidential candidate to act presidential when it comes to hecklers and protestors. Unlike his rhetoric, those protestors are Americans, they are your people too.

You may find Hillary annoying, irritating, untrustworthy, etc. But I truly feel Trump, or Drumph....his real last name....is the only dangerous candidate.

 

Yeah the last thing I want to do is wage political war here
I just see it completely the opposite but the truth is the world is divided 50/50 anymore
Not sure how there can ever be a decent conversation about what divides us if one side of the coin chooses to shout down the other
Im appreciative of free speech to disagree with peaceful protest but interrupting a speaker, tearing up signs and rushing the stage is not part of that
In this country that is patently not an American trait and really dangerous for all of us because its going to escalate
It wouldn't take place if the mans ability to speak freely wasn't being violently confronted
These "peaceful protestors" are going to jail

 

You know, I was going to ask if they were Pikies, but I thought you might be offended (in the sense that I know that Pikies are basically Irish gypsies). Is ;hat what you know them as, or is it a generic description? But wow...
I was only in WV once in my life...pulled into a burger place and the waitress skated over to the car was pregnant and had a black eye. When she brought back the order, the burger had mustard, ketchup, and mayonnaise on it. And brown gravy on the fries.
It wasn't bad though, as I remember.
