Dad was a fireman there in the city. The stories he had of how fires started was unreal. Nobody is doing anything to the black people that they aren't doing to themselves.
1) A fire was started in an apartment building by someone on that floor disposing of their charcoal BBQ ashes by throwing them in the hallway before they were completely out.
2) They were called to an apartment because someone smelled diesel fuel. IN an apartment building?? Yep, but it was Kerosene. Seems a resident didn't pay the gas bill and it was shut off. So, they went and bought a kerosene burning space heater. If they put the kerosene in cans outside of the apartment, it' get stolen, so they filled up the bath tub inside the apartment with it.... They weren't happy when the CFD pulled the plug in the tub.
There's more, but that's just a taste of what happens........

Ahhh , so then, looting and stealing are morally wrong if the criminals feel vindicated by their theft and destruction they get arrested, charged with the crimes and then judged by a jury of their peers not some guy on the internet If you vote for even a single Re-Pugant-Nut , you're a domestic terrorist, just like them. Thank God the Repugnuts don't get to define what the Democrats stand for.

I'm naive, but I just don't remember things being this bad before. I strongly endorse a check-n-balance system, but this is crazy. When one party would rather see Americans suffer than the other party be successful, it's gone too far.
I'm sure political humans have always acted this way. Humans ...we're stuck with them for now.

No politician has ever represented my heart and thoughts completely, and none ever can, we`re all different and all sinful, fallible humans. But, when you read the GOP platform, and read the democrats platform, and understand what ultimately they seek to represent, and build, there`s no comparison. One party is absolutely pure evil and filth. Socialism is next to communism, and those two ideologies have been responsible for more human suffering and misery than anything thing else in this world. Capitalism gives every person the opportunity to succeed or fail, if they fail, by their own hand. The more motivated and resourceful one is, the greater the opportunity to flourish. And you can be just moderately motivated and still do pretty well in a capitalistic society, but at least you have opportunities. And there is a basic human dignity in work, much more so than in the small portions measured out in socialism. Socialism is oppressive, and capitalism is 100% merit based. The harder one works, the better one fares.

OK here is what I think the Dems or anyone should be for.
Health care for without good health nothing else matters.
Environment as without a clean environment our health is effected in a negative way. BTW this is my chosen field of study.
A strong Military to protect our way of life on this earth. I'm afraid that China is going to grow and grow and dictate to the world what we should do. We are feeding the alligator in our pond and should stop trading with china and bring the jobs back home to our shores.
I'm pretty tired right now so I'll stop now. I did a lot of typing this am but erased most of it. But it wore me out.
Oh yea. Immigration. We should only allow legal immigration. Heck I would put armed guards at the southern boarder and shoot people that try to enter this country illegally. I think that would be much more effective that building an expensive wall all along the boarder which might not be entirely possible. Or maybe using drones to patrol the southern boarder to stop the illegal activity that crosses our boarder. Put mine fields there to stop them from walking across on foot. See I'm not a liberal bleeding heart guy. I'm pretty conservative for the most part.
I do support the right of the people to keep and bear arms as that is what the 2nd amendment to the US Constitution says. And all federal power is derived via the US Constitution and the rest is saved for the States. And that includes the bill of rights. The 4th amendment has been trampled as well and that should be changed.
I believe that we need to support our police.
I think we should shoot looters who are breaking into buildings to steal. And especially those that are burning police cars and buidlings. They should be shot as soon as the light a match. Drop them dead in the street if that is what it takes to stop them from setting a building on fire. The National Guard was used in the past and they were ordered to shoot people at Kent State. That stopped the riots and they didn't riot at Kent State anymore. Do this a few times and then people will learn that you don't impede traffic or highways by marching down the highway like they are doing. Tear gas does not clear the streets. Rubber Bullets don't clear the streets. But a few M855 bullets will clear the streets and keep them clear. Now I do believe in the people's right to petition the government for redress of their grievances. And the people can vote those who they don't like out of office. But taking to the streets, blocking traffic, burning police cars is not right and should not stand. Period. Right now the politicians are treating the protesters with kid gloves and that is why the protest keep going on and one. If you are a minority and don't like what the elected leaders are doing then you should register to vote and hope that your vote along with others will get changes done. But if you don't get your way and your chosen candidates won't win then you must comply with the laws and not burn down the city to get your way. That should get your landed in prison if not shot dead in the street.

I think we should build an Area 53 all along the boarder. Those guys know how to keep people out!
I sure do like my health care, but do I really have a right to it? I cannot see it in the written responsibilities of our federal government. The people don't seem to want to let them get the things right that they are responsible for.
When the government takes over responsibility for anything; it will instantly become inefficient and much more expensive. If one can't get fired for doing a lousy job then why should we expect them to do better??? ...especially when they keep getting raises.
If a private company or companies ran the post office, it would cost much less and take many fewer employees ...and they'd still come in under budget for a profit ...because this is what businesses do.

As the Founders stated in the Declaration of Independence, and rightly so; "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.-- Life, Liberty, and the PURSUIT of happiness...no guarantee of the outcome, only the pursuit. We can likely do better in regards to causing healthcare to be more efficient and more affordable, such as Tort reform, stopping fraud and waste, etc., but, healthcare isn`t a right, and it`s not the proper role of government to provide that for us.

Man, that public education at school 28 sure served you well! Greg and I ran the same streets as a kid. We probably threw rocks at each other.
