Waste not, want not. Nazi's are soylent green.

Missouri Democratic state senator says she hopes Trump is assassinated

Thankfully this has been picked up by other outlets as well... I would be disheartened if only Fox ran it as, yes, that would seems rather biased to bury it. If ordinary citizens are expected to refrain from these outbursts I think this goes tenfold for politicians. Unfortunately she has already said there's no way she's resigning.

The life time Democrat Rump has succeeded. He has permanently and irreparably fractured the Republican Party.
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/18/us/politics/trump-charlottesville-romney.html

BRIDGEWATER, N.J. — Mitt Romney, the Republican presidential nominee in 2012, excoriated President Trump for his equivocating response to the violence in Charlottesville, Va., and urged him to apologize or risk subjecting the country to “an unraveling of our national fabric.”

Mr. Romney’s remarks, posted on Facebook on Friday, mark some of the strongest language from a Republican against Mr. Trump following a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville and an attack by a driver that left a woman dead. Mr. Trump, on Tuesday, said “both sides” were to blame for Saturday’s deadly violence.

“Whether he intended to or not, what he communicated caused racists to rejoice, minorities to weep, and the vast heart of America to mourn,” Mr. Romney wrote. “His apologists strain to explain that he didn’t mean what we heard. But what we heard is now the reality, and unless it is addressed by the president as such, with unprecedented candor and strength, there may commence an unraveling of our national fabric.”

Clyde we happen to agree, I don't think he should be assassinated. He should be executed, with formalities.

Eye, when was a mass shooting recently in this country attributed to the left?
Seeing as he couldn't (or wouldn't) answer the question to any degree of satisfaction for most of us then let's look at the stats.

Over the past 10 years (2007-2016), domestic extremists of all kinds have killed at least 372 people in the United States. Of those deaths, approximately 74% were at the hands of right-wing extremists, about 24% of the victims were killed by domestic Islamic extremists, and the remainder were killed by left-wing extremists (that's 2% for the mathematically challenged).

Wiggo it is well known that Eye won't let facts interfere with his opinions.

Officials at Yale University recently censored a stone work of art on campus depicting an armed Native American and Puritan side by side, which has been described as a “hostile” image by the Ivy League institution’s alumni magazine.

The stone carving was edited to cover up the Puritan’s musket, while the Native American’s bow was left as is, reports Yale Alumni Magazine.

Can BOTH sides, whose foundations are the same... Just go away.

Yes spray painting statues is totally as evil as murdering a woman with a car. I see that now, Clyde.

Subject: Personal note from James Murdoch re: ADL

Friends,

I’m writing to you in a personal capacity, as a concerned citizen and a father. It has not been my habit to widely offer running commentary on current affairs, nor to presume to weigh in on the events of a given day save those that might be of particular or specific concern to 21CF and my colleagues. But what we watched this last week in Charlottesville and the reaction to it by the President of the United States concern all of us as Americans and free people.

These events remind us all why vigilance against hate and bigotry is an eternal obligation — a necessary discipline for the preservation of our way of life and our ideals. The presence of hate in our society was appallingly laid bare as we watched swastikas brandished on the streets of Charlottesville and acts of brutal terrorism and violence perpetrated by a racist mob. I can’t even believe I have to write this: standing up to Nazis is essential; there are no good Nazis. Or Klansmen, or terrorists. Democrats, Republicans, and others must all agree on this, and it compromises nothing for them to do so.

Diverse storytellers, and stories, can make a difference, and that diversity, around the world, is a crucial strength and an animating force in my business. Often times not everyone agrees with the stories and positions that emerge from this, and that can be difficult. Certainly no company can be perfect. But I’m proud of the powerful art that can emerge, and I’m grateful to all of my colleagues who make this happen. From the potent and compelling narrative of “12 Years a Slave”, to the streets of Pakistan and the bravery of an extraordinary young woman that we saw in “He Named Me Malala”, to name just a few, we’ve never been afraid to help storytellers and artists say important things – hard things, too.

To further demonstrate our commitment, Kathryn and I are donating 1 million dollars to the Anti-Defamation League, and I encourage you to give what you think is right as well. We hardly ever talk about our charitable giving, but in this case I wanted to tell you and encourage you to be generous too. Many of you are supporters of the Anti-Defamation League already – now is a great time to give more. The ADL is an extraordinary force for vigilance and strength in the face of bigotry – you can learn more here: https://www.adl.org. My very best to you and with all my gratitude,

JRM

Even Fox News knows. "I can’t even believe I have to write this: standing up to Nazis is essential; there are no good Nazis. Or Klansmen, or terrorists."

I heard pretty much the same figures recently. Probably came from the same source.
Note that 2% <> 0%.
As I said, a few days ago, call out the specific actions of the particular "side" as it happens. Don't use blanket condemnations.
The only violent act from the Left I sure of from last weekend was Kessler being knocked down Sunday.

Capitalize on this good fortune, one word can bring you round ... changes.

thanks Gary.

Did I telepathically send the post? Long time since you have posted in politics. Good to see you.

Hi Byron,
Long time no see, glad your back.
Another cover pic.


Excellent appointments by Trump, I suspect the only reason one of them remains, is because he can't get rid of him.

Does the mass assassination of Police Officers in Dallas count?
http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/08/us/dallas-police-shooting-live-updates/index.html
What constitutes 'Mass Shooting' more than one in the same incident or a series single shootings with the same intended victims......?

Just a few days later....."Baton Rouge shooting: 3 officers dead; shooter was Missouri man, sources say" http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/17/us/baton-route-police-shooting/index.html

And 13 days after that......"San Diego police shooting: 1 officer killed, 1 injured"
http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/29/us/san-diego-police-officers-shot/index.html

I could keep going but the obvious vacuous nature of the question is now revealed..........and all confirmed by the Crap News Network.........

Of course your degree of satisfactions is unreachable by mere mortals.................(_*_)

It is me, or is there an assumption that all mentally defective criminals are the organized left?

Eye as I previously responded to your post being a murderer does not mean you are "left". Cop haters come in all political persuasions. Can you cite their politics?

Well it was the Puppet Master who finally drew the short straw.

Bannon will just have to find another hand puppet to play with now. :-D
