General John Kelly: "He said that, in his opinion, Mr. Trump met the definition of a fascist, would govern like a dictator if allowed, and had no understanding of the Constitution or the concept of rule of law."
When was the last time you heard of a conservative defacing a priceless painting or throwing someone in front of a subway train. When was the last time you saw a conservative disrupt a talk show and walk out of a presentation and when was the last time you heard of a conservative disrupting someones meal because they belonged to a certain political party. When was the last liberal denied the right to give a speech at a college because the students didn't want to hear the other side. No Leslie, it seems to be the left who considers only one side worth hearing and that is very dangerous because there are two sides to everything and only small minds are afraid to listen to both sides.
White is how you are born not what you choose. If you feel guilty about being white There are white supremacists but they are few in number. There are far more intolerant extreme leftist. Hate is on both sides but it does seem the left leads the race.
From my phone: you are correct Anon 2:09. I breathe in the breath of my neighbor, bringing their essence into myself. Usually this exercise brings peace and balance but lately…
Instead of fellow citizens with a live and let live philosophy I receive the hate and fear of the fascists, the Nazis, the Christian Nationalists with their need to exterminate me and mine just because we exist.
Honestly I’m all about the light until another soul tries to end me. I won’t start the fight but for the good of all and may it harm none, I will end it. And Anon - I consider death a mercy not harm.
If the other side wants a fight be advised this old grey one has lost everything. Do you think I fear death? I crave mercy after all.
By the way I am white and FAR from being guilty about my being white. You see I am not a white supremacist. I find all cultures interesting and have no problem with any minority. Other than White Supremacists and tRumpers. And with the tRumpers it is all about their sick ideological beliefs.
Sorry I hit a nerve skud. Must be a reason I did, EH?
skud, you live in a bubble. That's the only explanation for your comment.
The governor of Florida has forbidden public school teachers in his state to talk about LGBTQ! Conservatives in Texas and other conservative states have BANNED books that they disapprove of! CONSERVATIVE states have passed laws that tell women what they can or cannot do when they are pregnant -- politicians in those states are making MEDICAL decisions for girls and women about being pregnant!
And you've conveniently left out the fact that MOBS of Conservative/Trumpians attacked the U.S. Capitol and tried to STOP the certification of the electoral votes so that Donald Trump could ILLEGALLY and TREASONOUSLY install himself as POTUS! That alone dwarfs ANYTHING you accused Liberals of! ANYTHING!
The people who rioted against the extra-judicial killing of George Floyd, and other POC who've been murdered at the hands of LEOs, have been dealt with under the law. They have NOT escaped punishment for any laws they broke.
But I'll remind you, as an example you ignore, that Kyle Rittenhouse went across state lines to interfere in a riot that had NOTHING to do with him or his property, and he SHOT AND KILLED TWO PEOPLE AND PERMANENTLY MAIMED ANOTHER. I'll remind you that Rittenhouse is NOT a Liberal, but Rittenhouse got away with MURDER. He had no business being where he was -- it was not even his own state! But the little punk got off because it appears conservatives have no problem as long as one of their conservative tribe does the killing of POC.
I'll also remind you that THE MOST DANGEROUS AND CRIMINAL STATES are RED STATES. Why don't conservatives try to clean up the mayhem and murder in their own states?
"But there is a large piece of the homicide story that is missing and calls into question the veracity of the right-wing obsession over homicides in Democratic cities: murder rates are far higher in Trump-voting red states than Biden-voting blue states. And sometimes, murder rates are highest in cities with Republican mayors.
For example, Jacksonville, a city with a Republican mayor, had 128 more murders in 2020 than San Francisco, a city with a Democrat mayor, despite their comparable populations. In fact, the homicide rate in Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco was half that of House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy’s Bakersfield, a city with a Republican mayor that overwhelmingly voted for Trump. Yet there is barely a whisper, let alone an outcry, over the stunning levels of murders in these and other places.
We collected 2019 and 2020 murder data from all 50 states. (Comprehensive 2021 data is not yet available.) We pulled the data from yearly crime reports released by state governments, specifically the Departments of Justice and Safety. For states that didn’t issue state crime reports, we pulled data from reputable local news sources. To allow for comparison, we calculated the state’s per capita murder rate, the number of murders per 100,000 residents, and categorized states by their presidential vote in the 2020 election, resulting in an even 25-25 split.
We found that murder rates are, on average, 40% higher in the 25 states Donald Trump won in the last presidential election compared to those that voted for Joe Biden. In addition, murder rates in many of these red states dwarf those in blue states like New York, California, and Massachusetts."
Despite politicized claims that this rise was the result of criminal justice reform in liberal-leaning jurisdictions, murders rose roughly equally in cities run by Republicans and cities run by Democrats.
So-called “red” states actually saw some of the highest murder rates of all. This data makes it difficult to pin recent trends on local policy shifts and reveals the basic inaccuracy of attempts to politicize a problem as complex as crime. Instead, the evidence points to broad national causes driving rising crime."
Leslie, Good job of discussing my post. No one called you a white supremacist so don't feel attacked. I discuss the intolerant left and you talk about trump, as most leftists do because it is all about trump all the time.
Ms. Shaw, Desantis banned teaching LGBTQ from k-3grade. How many third graders do you know who can understand their sexuality at any level. The abortion ban was wrong and I agree with you on that but I do believe there should be time limits. You can always find an example of bad behavior on both sides but it does seem to be the intolerant left who leads the race. Now we have -H- on the trail again predicting the 2024 elections will be fraudulent. She and trump need to just go away for the good of the country. Of course it is because of her we have him so they are a perfect match.
I'll also remind you that Crimes are committed in cities and that applies to murders. Like pelosi said, if the truth is against you on a subject change the subject.
The twenty cities in the United States with the highest murder rates (murders per 100,000 people) are: St. Louis, MO (69.4) Baltimore, MD (51.1) New Orleans, LA (40.6) Detroit, MI (39.7) Cleveland, OH (33.7) Las Vegas, NV (31.4) Kansas City, MO (31.2) Memphis, TN (27.1) Newark, NJ (25.6) Chicago, IL (24) Cincinnati, OH (23.8) Philadelphia, PA (20.2) Milwaukee, WI (20.0) Tulsa, OK (18.6) Pittsburgh, PA (18.4) Indianapolis, IN (17.7) Louisville, KY (17.5) Oakland, CA (17.1) Washington D.C. (17.0) Atlanta, GA (16.7)
Guess what they have in common? They all have democrat mayors. We have a hate crisis in the country and that should change but we need LEADERS to change it and unfortunately they are few in number and none at the top.
but it does seem to be the intolerant left who leads the race.
There is intolerance on both sides skud. The difference is that liberals are primarily intolerant of the ignorance that consumes the right in its attempt to restrict, reverse, and make unlawful the rights of minorities of any persuasion.
Conservatives are intolerant of granting freedoms and liberties others approve of but they themselves reject. Which is okay until cons attempt to deny liberals and minorities their natural rights and then impose on them the values conservatives approve of.
Its called authoritarianism and that is what conservatives obviously desire. Hence their love affair with the Great Orange Turd.
I don't think you love or like tRump personally skud. But you sure as hell seem to support the same garbage tRump supports. So, you might as well have supported tRump.
This ain't gonna end well skud. And tRump bears the lion's share of the responsibility. Period.

Are you completely clueless skud?

The rate of murders in the US has gone up at an alarming rate. But, despite a media narrative to the contrary, this is a problem that afflicts Republican-run cities and states as much or more than the Democratic bastions.
In 2020, per capita murder rates were 40% higher in states won by Donald Trump than those won by Joe Biden.
8 of the 10 states with the highest murder rates in 2020 voted for the Republican presidential nominee in every election this century.
Facts are stubborn things:
"But there is a large piece of the homicide story that is missing and calls into question the veracity of the right-wing obsession over homicides in Democratic cities: murder rates are far higher in Trump-voting red states than Biden-voting blue states. And sometimes, murder rates are highest in cities with Republican mayors.
For example, Jacksonville, a city with a Republican mayor, had 128 more murders in 2020 than San Francisco, a city with a Democrat mayor, despite their comparable populations. In fact, the homicide rate in Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco was half that of House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy’s Bakersfield, a city with a Republican mayor that overwhelmingly voted for Trump. Yet there is barely a whisper, let alone an outcry, over the stunning levels of murders in these and other places.

We have a murder problem in America — especially in red states
Also this:
Despite politicized claims that this rise was the result of criminal justice reform in liberal-leaning jurisdictions, murders rose roughly equally in cities run by Republicans and cities run by Democrats.
So-called “red” states actually saw some of the highest murder rates of all. This data makes it difficult to pin recent trends on local policy shifts and reveals the basic inaccuracy of attempts to politicize a problem as complex as crime. Instead, the evidence points to broad national causes driving rising crime."
YAHOO! News:
Republican-controlled states have higher murder rates than Democratic ones: study
Red States Have More Murders Than Blue States
Republicans blame Democrats for crime — but new data shows higher murder rates in red states
Yes, crime is up. But eight of the 10 states with the highest murder rates in 2020 voted for Donald Trump
