Im here to see what the enemy is up to (D's and R's, "voters" ) and laugh at the notion that the political process can change lives for the better

What crimes? Storing classified information on private server? Wait, that was Hillary.
Collided with Russians about uranium? Still Hillary.
Didn’t care if an ambassador was murdered? More Hillary.

I look at this forum as a way to discuss issues and it does get heated. It does mean there is hatred. Far from it. Maybe it is because I have friends who are far right of me and we still out for beers and deinks.

Some people on this forum really need more human interaction as far as I can see.
You for one, post stuff like this (flaming rhetoric) on a daily basis. What I am posting is fact. I own a bunch of firearms and one of the reasons is just in case our Govt decides to start a war against us. It's called 2A. I don't actually hate anyone. I do believe a lot of people, like yourself, hate me simply for who I am. I've had people trash my truck simply because I've had a hunting sticker in the window. I've had people flip me off because I had a legally hunted, dead deer in the back of my truck on the way home. People actually called me racist for wanting a border wall. How illegal is a race now just doubles down on the insanity today.

I'm ok with that just know that ya, I'm the guy with firearms that is not giving them up. I want control of our borders too. The part that really really yanks ya'alls crank is that I'm not white. That probably makes more people angry than anything.

Liberals tend to be hateful and intolerant; they think opposing views are not just a different opinion, but should be crushed and eliminated, as they are "evil".

How about Vice-President ?



The level of ineptitude and willingness to look the other way from the left on their own leadership is monumental.

Have the P&OC veterans ever seen anything like this?
Glorious isn't it? I love watching the left implode!

I know a couple who cut their best friend out of their wedding photos because he came out as a Trump supporter. I know of no Trump supporters who have done something similar to the Trump haters in their life. Even on sites like twitter, a lot of the hostility you see from the right is defensive in nature. The left HATES the right with a visceral passion and the right is reacting to it in a lot of cases. You attack people, call them nazis and racists and fascists and try to ruin their lives with the cancel culture and their reaction to your attacks is not going to be gentlemanly to say the least.

I've definitely been guilty of being snarky towards an individual.

But I don't think I've ever cast a net over an entire group of of people who vote differently than I do. And I can't stand it.

I detest the name calling when it pertains to group - Libbtards*, Repugs - how does that further anyone's argument? Or "you Trumpies are all alike" or "all Libards are snowflakes" ... I mean, what does that ever achieve in any debate?

I definitely don't want CD to make rules against that ^ but I do wish collectively we could all agree to stop with the group name-calling.

*CD starred out the correct spelling but left Repugs intact.

Why go there? I don't even know of any - not that I'm looking.

It does not take "imagination" for this- it is what happened.


It is amazing that the left fails to understand that it was Biden, not Trump, who committed a crime. However, the hatred of Trump by the left has prevented them from seeing this uncomfortable fact.
The left is unable to see their own very obvious hypocrisy. I think they're so deranged from hate against the imaginary enemy (Trump voters) that it's fried their brains.
