@fenomas said: Aha clme, but what if the rioters believed it was okay to invade the capital and beat a cop to death? There were plenty of terrorists (my preference to "rioters") who believed it was ok, because they were there on the presi…

@Bill said: It read like he wanted a loud demonstration. There's nothing in there that implies he wanted them to occupy the Capitol. So, your response to, "it's not the specific things he said on the 6th, it's the totality of everything t…

@Bill said: Well, I read the transcript of Trump's speech. I saw no call for riot, insurrection, or anything else of the sort. You really can't be so naive as to believe that, because he didn't use the precise words, that absolves him of …

I... er, Santa, got me a pair of these. The wife got me a framed vintage Porsche advertisement (reproduction):

@Clme said: That seems to a narrower definition of what we have typically considered a domestic terrorist. For example, we never learned the motive of the vegas shooter. I agree with Bill's definition... The Vegas shooter was a mass-murd…

Since it happened, I've been waiting for them to identify some right-wing nut-job with conspiracy theories. That may still happen, but it sure looks like a (dramatic) suicide right now.

It's funny how the Republican's are the party of small government and personal freedom, unless you are something, or do something, that they think is icky. Then they're all up in your business.

404 FTW Notifications are missing? I don't know what it means, but it got my attention.

America has a problem... Whenever an issue of major social importance comes up, an extremist minority group of assholes and opportunists (on both sides of the issue) hijack the narrative and drown out the majority with legitimate complaint. Th…

I can't wait for this chapter in American exceptionalism history to be over.

@Bill said: @filious said: yes. I don't. I think these days, twenty years into the twenty-first century, that racism is decried far more often than racism is actually observed. I don't think you're qualified to…

Absent any hobbies (or a willingness to try a new one), where you could join a club or something... Clme's volunteering suggestion is a good one. Truth be told, I was never good at this either... at least if i wanted to meet a girl. I am an intro…

The power was out for a little over an hour today... Now that I work from home and I host a few things on servers here at home; I've started to think that maybe the company needs to buy some backup power for the house.

@Bill said: GOP Ohio state lawmaker refuses to wear face mask because faces are the 'likeness of God' I was flabbergasted, when I heard this story yesterday... What an insult to anyone's intelligence.

@Bill said: Pastor who criticized coronavirus ‘mass hysteria’ dies from illness “But he wasn’t the type of person to just live in fear and let it rob him of the joy of the life that he had.” Isn't that exactly what it did? He didn…

@Bill said: A ‘Liberty’ Rebellion in Idaho Threatens to Undermine Coronavirus Orders “Whatever happened to ‘Give me liberty or give me death’?” he said. Ok... death it is, then.
