SectionC3

I'm not the one with the complaint, Old Dawg. That's you.

Let's get something straight. When someone from your nationalist crowd blows the racist dog whistle (e.g., there's a lot of good people on both sides in Charlottesville! or the Muslim travel ban! or birtherism!) the typical response is something along the lines of "he didn't literally say he's a racist or that he has a prejudice, so therefore he isn't and there is no merit to your wild accusation of racism! The shield of literalism is applied, if you will. In this instance, however, literalism apparently is to be discarded because it suits your purpose. When Trump or one of his mouthpieces says something like the Democrat-run "cities are burning," we check literalism at the door and revert to hyperbole because it suits your purpose. What cities (plural) currently are on fire in their totality? Because remember, it's not just a few buildings here and there that can be on fire. It's the "cit[y]," meaning the entirety of the political subdivision. And it has to be on fire now, at this very moment. Otherwise, it's just another shameless lie and shameless exaggeration from a shameless president propagated by the shameless apologists, like you, who follow him. You're the only one talking about a psychotic episode. Unless you mean the claim that multiple democrat-run cities are burning as we speak is psychotic. In which case, I would suggest dealing with the psychosis by not saying (or defending) psychotic things. Oh! And goodness gracious it looks like you posted a misleading link about insurance. Turns out the article you cited deals with things like the inability to procure coverage for damage caused by strike, riot, or civil unrest. Things that, as I'm sure you well know, can catalyze loss without the use of flame, and in the absence of a riot.

Hoax. https://www.portlandoregon.gov/fire/apps/calls/incidents_map.cfm

So someone who disagrees with you is a bad apple?

Present tense: which cities are burning?

Nice cop out.

So who are the bad apples?

If it’s a problem, and not a hoax, I figured there would be multiple cities on fire, as Trump suggested. But there’s not. So just another Trump hoax that all of the suckers and losers buy into.

That’s pretty sick. For real. I enjoy difference of opinion and can put up with the hyperbolic insults and even the delusional nonsense. But this crossed a line. It’s just demented. You gotta go.

There’s more than one city on fire? Holy cow.

I take it no other city is on fire. Just another trump hoax!

Hoax. Also, Trump said cities were burning. That’s plural. What other democrat run city is on fire?

Good to see that PPP is back to normal,

And therein lies the problem with this place.

Nope.

“Parade of fools?” Who might they be? People who don’t share your worldview? and inciting anger? With what, exactly? A competing viewpoint? Maybe the solution to your problems is to have an open mind.

No. But he’s also not the type to kiss and tell in public about his time in the WH.

Semi-educated guess: Kelly is one of the sources for the original report.

We have a winner. It’s one thing to say that a better sense of decorum is required. It’s another to say that different viewpoints should be stifled. Civility is to be pursued and applauded. But censorship is not.

Good point. He tunes out whatever message is inconsistent with his viewpoint.

5 years, 90 mil; 60-ish guaranteed.

I expected nonsense when I started to read this. But it’s actually very thoughtful, and for that you deserve credit. Well done.

Another day, another speech in which Joe sounds presidential. In sharp contrast, of course, to the current occupant of the Oval Office. I was particularly impressed with Joe’s measured approach to the allegations of President Trump’s shameful disrespect of our fallen heroes. I can’t wait until we have a president of dignity, honor, and character again, and that means that I can’t wait until Joe Biden is our president! Discuss.

Had to reach back in time to find a photo of some dark-skinned children with assault weapons. No undertones of racism there whatsoever! Looks like you have a nasty case of SC3 Derangement Syndrome!

I’d rather have kids working than pulling security with an AR-15 in Kenosha. Maybe there’s a happy middle ground where we don’t have child labor and don’t have heavily armed children roaming the streets.
