That's right.

Because the Excited States of America was a perfectly happy, content place prior to January 2021. We all got along just fine.

Thanks, Biden!

He's speaking of the small portion of the country who are tired of watching the constitution being ignored by every one from the President through the courts on down. You are obviously not one who is concerned about our Constitution rights. On Constitution day, btw.


I guess that means all of us who do care now have 'unfocused anger issues'.

Well, here we are folks. Systemic, institutionalized racism in NYC, brought to you by the people who painted Black Lives Matter on Fifth Avenue. Good thing they painted that mural, because that is where the black citizens can sit and eat their take out food: the street. This is unreal.

Prime example of Critical Race Theory folks.

I saw real 'systemic' racism with my own eyes many many years ago when it actually still existed.

Do you REALLY believe what you're saying? Because little girl, I tell you the truth, this is two thousand and twenty-one, NOT nineteen fifty-one. And hardly anyone thinks the way you say they do anymore. Not like they did seventy years ago.

It is my point. I see so many of us who do care think that there are still a lot of folks who care about the erosion of our Constitution.


Sadly, this is not true. And we're getting fewer and fewer. This controlyavirus really did a number on our ranks.

BTW, I agree with those who call out the fact they should not have resorted to violence. That is not the hill to fire the first shot on.
