    If all else fails, panic, throw a tantrum, stamp your feet ...

    maybe even smash a few windows - again.
    Yep, the democrats are going into panic mode with
    the googly eyed Ocasio Cortez leading the pack.
    Their Blue Wave has turned into a drizzle, obama
    can't attract enough of an audience for a basketball
    game and Biden is his usual stupid self. Despite
    Nancy getting herself measured for a gavel, they're
    beginning to have doubts about whether the American
    people are really as gullible as they thought they were.
    Those damn Deplorables might beat us again.

    “We can send a message to the bigots and billionaires that this country belongs to all of us.- Says Cortez.

    "All of us" I guess means anyone on the planet that decides their country sucks and wants to stroll into the U.S. These days you can be or do anything you please.
    If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.

        When it's applied (as that bug-eyed bitch does) to state & federal agents attempting to enforce immigration laws.

        And do you think, by the way, that bug-eyed bitch would ever dream of applying the "T" word to the rabble firing rockets into Israel? Not any sooner than the BBC, which calls them "militants." Except, however, that "freedom fighters," would undoubtedly be her first choice for the proper name to call them.

          Apparently coming out against terrorism IS a bad thing -- our local National Socialists refuse to come out against acts of terrorism committed against pro-life demonstrators, for example.

            Vernon get your wife to slap you because you are clearly stuck in that outrage groove. I've noticed plenty of bad stuff happen in the world for which you have suspiciously failed to register outrage. So there!

            Comrade CH, just another "whadabout" argument, right? One need not like the lady or vote for her to agree with her that certain things she is campaigning against are indeed bad for the country. Overall there is a conspicuously mute response on this forum to acts of terror perpetrated by far right extremists, even though by an Anti-Defamation League tally they account for 3X more fatalities in the last 10 years than home grown Muslim extremists, and many many more than far left extremists.

                Well for one thing, we can depend on the media not only to rage against those acts & the weapons used, but to blame Trump, all conservatives, & esp. all gun owners, that they occurred; to a major degree, WE are held accountable! After days of exposure to that level of outrage, it just seems there's little else to add in the way of anger; it's all been said, & it's just too depressing to harp on it any longer. But I've never heard of any serious shooter or collector who wasn't PERSONALLY outraged & sickened when any kind of mass-shooting occurred, not only by the viscous evil of the crime itself, but because we know we too will be blamed by the left-wing media.

                  Maybe they're personally outraged but that's not the Vern Humphrey test, now is it? And one can disagree even strongly with certain acts while nonethless maintaining a blind spot to the culture that produces it. In any event, if we're going to talk about domestic terrorism here, then let's talk about the most virulent form of it, right? The right wing extremists in this country are more deadly over the past decade than the Muslims.

                    While it is not possible to even be aware of all acts of terror, no one can show where I REFUSED to condemn such an act. But I CAN show where our resident National Socialists were asked over and over to condemn such acts and steadily refused.

                          What IS the "culture that produces it"? Let's say you're an intensely conservative sort, who lived (like me) for yrs in horror of THAT BITCH gaining for the SECOND TIME the White House; you're as hopelessly resigned to it as your own death. But then, suddenly, unbelievably...a MIRACLE! Against all odds & predictions, you've been saved from your worst fear & the despair that went with it!

                          But what happens next? The "miracle" is nullified, hand-cuffed, by unelected liberal federal judges, who tie the hands of your "deliverer" & crush your hope for a gov't reflecting your deepest beliefs. At the same time, your deliverer is reviled & vilified in the national media, the true "Opposition Party," whose attacks against him are as unending as they are vicious.

                          THAT is the "culture" that drives such stupid fools as the mail-bomber to their simple-minded revenge!

                            Don't see how any of that excuses acts of terrorism CH, which is what you seem to be suggesting. Better to follow the words of the sage:

                            " If all else fails, panic, throw a tantrum, stamp your feet ..."

                            ~Dogtag

                            But don't kill people.

                            To me it speaks volumes that we can't get an admission on this forum that right wing terrorism in this country is a real problem, on a scale currently larger than Muslim terrorism. Even a simple admission of this fact appears beyond reach. To use Vernon's form he cannot bring himself to utter the phrase "I condemn right wing acts of terrorism."

                            It being Sunday I am reminded of Matthew 7:5.

                              "Any of that" EXPLAINS them! What drives low IQ types like the bomber to the crazy idea that they just HAVE to take some action against the lying hate-mongers who every hour of every day spew their venom against Trump & his supporters from the major media platforms. It's unrelenting! Leftists scream about Trump's "words" at the same time they call him "racist," "liar," "sex-abuser," etc. So his "words" matter, but not theirs?

                              It doesn't explain the synagogue killer, because such a devil is the embodiment of pure evil.
