Proof? See pro Trump rally in D.C.

Pretty difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff, isn't it, with those MAGA hat wearers.
So whats the difference between MAGA hat wearers and 74 million Americans voted for Trump? I voted for Trump and I would wear a MAGA hat every day if I could, but I live in a democrat enclaved city so I am not going to do it for my safety from the “peaceful” progressive democrats

And back to my point, would you call yourself a NICE PEACEFUL TOLERANCE person if you are going to beat or hurt another person for wearing a MAGA hat?

That’s my point.

Yet, some leftist from citydata only believes far right is capable of violence (refer to post #262).

Also, how often do you see MAGA hat wearers burn down cities and torch police cars since May of this year? I have not.

But we all seen far leftist groups like BLM and Antifa burned & destroyed cities across America this past summer.

Seems weird. Lol. Thanks!
As far as I know there is only 1. I had no idea until he said he was looking for a place to hold a meeting. I told him no (same as I would if BLM asked) and I guess he found another location.

Why are you interested in their masturbation habits?

Stop believing all the divisive crap and life suddenly looks much, much better.

Agreed.
And to add; I do not know many that pick and chose friends or acquaintances based on political beliefs. What you see on anonymous message boards like this, are people putting things out that they would never say publicly. I also see vast false generalizations on message boards as well.

No, I’m not going to block you. I’m going to remain here, at this forum I’ve been a member of for 13 years, and I’m going to call your Canadian butt out every single time I see you going on one of your manic and meaningless anti-American rants. Because people should know that you are an interloping Canadian with an agenda of antagonism. I’m making it my job, in fact.

I intimated this very thing many pages back. It went ignored of course, because the desired narrative here is just the opposite of the reality you offered here in your post. Good post, by the way!

I believe a large number of these people never travel. A lot of provincial folk here I think who have never been to a third world country in their lives. They think life is so bad here ... rofl.

I was on a temporary duty assignment in Blaine POE for a year with CBP. You are lucky you didn’t meet me otherwise I would send you back to Canada. Next time when you see a CBP officer at a POE, make sure to tell him that you have the right to talk **** about the US because you are paying taxes, ok?

A lot of Canadians, especially Canadian snowbirds, think it is their “right” to enter the US when in fact it is a privilege. You are a GUEST here on US soil. You got it? a GUEST.

Yes, most of them do own properties (mainly their vacation homes) in the US, but that doesn’t mean anything to CBP. You own properties in the US, you pay taxes.

Here in the US it would have turned into a shouting match, maybe worse. Why do we have this level of hate for each other? I’m looking for reasons, not “because two sides don’t agree on things”. That happens everywhere.
Because the United States is the single entity preventing the elite class around the world from dominating the entire globe, under an oppressive, authoritarian regime. That's why.

The United States needs to fall, economically and socially, if that plan is ever to be realized. The division we see today was seeded before any of us was born, and has been carefully curated over the decades.

This is the end game of a plan, not the beginning. Many say that it's already too late, and that the damage has been done and is irreversible.

Sounds all crazy, right? Yeah, it does. I wish it were.

The attitudes of many Canadian snowbirds is just appalling. They spend half their year carpetbagging the Southern US coast, and the other half of the year talking crap about their gracious hosts. Every year they seem to become a bit more emboldened to verbally abuse the very people who clean their rentals, serve their meals, and wash their dirty dishes. It’s shameful behavior that definitely affects the way many Gulf Coast staters think about them.
