Thank goodness for media coverage. They bring the truth into our living rooms, like Televised Vietnam.
For a while it became normal dinner theater.
Until it wasn't.

So were good.
Vote them off the planet.
Quite possibly the most dishonest thing said today. I guess you haven't been looking at the news or social media in the last few days (not to mention this forum).

You've earned three slappies and an eye-roll.

Conspiracy nuts would rather make up convoluted stories than accept simple explanations that Chapter 7 takes less 6 months to discharge after which you can get a credit card again (likely secured or low limit) , and that he was likely using his mom's North Miami home address for mail. (Florida has a homestead exemption in bankruptcies), His bankruptcy was discharged in 2012 so more than enough time to rebuild credit.

I don't think Informed Consent has ever been camping. Lots of people live in their vans and travel across the country while doing it. The van the MAGAbomber had was big enough to have a lot of creature comforts inside---cooking stove, chemical toilet, sink, refrigerator, bed. State parks are full of people with tricked out vans. Some people prefer living that way than to be tied down with houses and apartments. When they want to spread out, they go visit someone for a few days.

Default Our problem isn’t “incivility.” It’s right-wing violence.

This is a well written article. The main fact:

- The Republican party encourages the violence. The Democratic party does not.

- Violence is embedded into the belief system of the Right. Opposite for the Left. When the right-wing commits a violent act, it's normal. When the Left does, it's not normal and the leaders condemn it.

- There are A LOT MORE VIOLENCE FROM THE RIGHT than from the left.

- The Republican party leaders openly solicit right-wing groups that advocated and committed violence.

- Antifa has NO connection to the Democratic party, who despises them. While right-wing violent groups are invited warmly into the party by Republican party leaders.

These acts should be condemned unreservedly. But there is no serious comparison between left-wing and right-wing violence in this country, either in the scale of the phenomenon or the degree to which it is encouraged by political leaders. According to a report by the Anti-Defamation League, white supremacists were responsible for 18 of 34 “extremist-related murders” in the United States in 2017. Over the last decade, the report says, people on the far right were responsible for 71 percent of extremist killings.

The violent part of the right is integrated into the Republican Party in a way that has no analogue on the left. A few months before the Unite the Right white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Va., that devolved into a deadly riot, Corey Stewart, now the Republican candidate for Senate in that state, appeared at an event sponsored by one of Unite the Right’s organizers, Jason Kessler.

Quote:

At this point, someone devoted to the proposition that “both sides” are responsible for our incendiary political environment might point to the black-clad anarchist street fighters of antifa who regularly brawl with the far right. But even if you believe that the antifa movement is as violent as its right-wing opponents — it’s not — it has no real connection to the Democratic Party, which by most accounts it despises.

Steve Scalise is going to be upset to hear he was shot by a right winger.

LMAO the left doesn't encourage and create a climate that leads to violence? What about Obama's attacks on police, the media's stirring up of racial divisions and race based voting blocs, their worship of Colin Kaepernick and BLM even though nearly all those cases have been debunked. I blame leftist rhetoric for.....

1. The assassinations of the 3 police officers here in Baton Rouge
2. The assassinations of the 5 officers in Dallas
3. The attempted assassination of Congressman Steve Scalise and other Republicans at the baseball game

4. The Baltimore riots
5. The Ferguson riots
6. The death threats against George Zimmerman (who was found not guilty btw by evidence that corroborated his story that Trayvon Martin was the aggressor and tried to kill him)

Little social media time this week yes, however, credit where credit is due... In perspective of one waking up angry everyday.....
Bombers are angry.
Shooters are angry.
Mobs, jumping and kicking and punching someone who doesn't agree with them... are angry.
Suppressing a vote toward your opponent is a form of anger toward that voter.
Placing your hand over someone's mouth, to be certain you can violate them...is done by someone very angry they are being told NO.
All of the above are intended to violate.
All of the above are Trump Republican ideologies celebrated by the leader of the Trump Republican Party.

And if you don't know, now you know.
