Niagara Bill

I am not a lefty, but I do cherish free speech. I do not think that a clerk, a cop, foreman, a fireman, should be fired for a crude remark. If maga is doing this for retribution...that is not leadership.

So, in the end who chooses who can you comment on and you cannot..

I am not sure that firing a person for commenting negatively on a murder is a good thing. When the drug dealer on the corner gets assassinated and the restaurant owner who lost business because of the druggies coming around, if he says something like..tough but he deserved it...should he be penalized. When the lefties in Minn were *****, I am sure many people in a pub had nothing kind to say. Kirk was important to maga, and his family, but no more important than the family of the Minn couple. You may say that some negative comments are hate speech. The slope is slippery. It is a different issue than yelling fire. If a career soldier, in some terrible location, passes a comment like, "so what, never liked his views anyway", should he be squealed on and kicked out because of his views? To me, this bares a lot of intelligent thought, not political action. Yes, speaking ill of the dead is wrong...period.

Obviously...cheering murder deserves some reaction, but has never been treated this way. But what I meant was opinions in general, criticism of government policy leading to retribution...

Is anyone concerned about government investigation into your opinions..ie on this site or others, and potential punishment or increased surveillance. When the vp states that organizations of left leaning political views will be investigated, does that affect anyone here. Could you lose a job over expressing your concerns?

Fake news... Here us the real news. American military attends the Belarus/Russian war games exercises. Why would Putin allow this? Because he is not afraid of US. Now do you accept that Trump and Putin have secret plans together.

I hope you are correct that the US will be fine...and yes I do worry about my own country, but the collusion thing is still a possibility, that election manipulation is far greater chance now. But you are in the middle of a gang war, not political debate. The right lost a descent man, likely more is coming for both gangs. Violence is not nessary for political change. Obama took the country far to left. Biden was not in control which is why he was elected. The snapback is far further and equally as dangerous.

Charlie Kirk is dead because politics has become a gang war. Assassinations have occurred in history...by nuts, by the mob, but today the waring factions are like gangland. Minnesota now Utah, tomorrow? When trump takes Maga down the path of retribution against political opponents, against political organizations that oppose him...and he will, Ceasar has taken control of the capital. After the Reichstag was burned, political opponents were blpamed and targeted. I am not comparing trump to you know who, just the series of historic political actions. The US will have passed the point of no return. The only possible way to save the true democracy is for a centrist party to quickly emerge.

Some truth to what you say about some dems considered right by the woke. They didn't leave the dems, the dems left them.

You made your point successfully up to the point you needed to bring Biden into it. You cannot resist saying my guy is better than the worst president since Wilson. Flutie vs Johnson...neither one was good enough. Not about less government, it is about less liberals, less liberal platforms, and more closer control.

As I said, why would anyone support easy , or no bail laws. In NY, Oregon, Cali, Texas, Fla, Ohio or anywhere. No sure why you think I meant only NY.

Good for them! I only hope Russia or India don't step in as "peacemakers".

I find it impossible to believe, that a South Korean company, who does billions of sales annually in the US, builds vehicles in the US, has pledged support to do more, is building a new factory to hire more people, would gave jeopardize that by bringing in illegal assistance from North Korea.

Unless of course your goal is to reunite USSR, with cooperation of a certain prez, abd support of China and India.

This is 100% fake news. Maybe AI. This is more dangerous than the missiles.

Did trump go to Art School?

This is an amazing debate. I am unsure how being left or right can have a different opinion on a subject that affects the very foundation of western society. 1. Why would anyone support easy bail, no bail for dangerous people, if you desire an organized safe, free society. You cannot be free if you have fear walking in your neighborhood. 2. Western society was born from values of European society, mostly Christian background, with similar work ethic, family values. It was infused with some Jewish religion. Most of North America was moderate in religious belief, choosing country over preachers most often, choosing respect over hatred. In some areas slavery became a blight, a wrong step, one society is still trying to fix, one we have struggled with and must learn from. But it was not a religious issue. 3. North America had disengaged from violent religions, choosing to tolerate, .... then came the hatred from the middle east, the100+ countries, at continuous war caused by their religion, where tolerance was considered weak, where hatred was king, where secularism was violent, where minorities controlled majority, where rights were restricted, where clerics fueled hatred, where Christians were not tolerated or welcomed, where the crusades never ended, where terrorism was worshiped. 4. Our society, wishing to show how cultured, secure, fair, loving and open we were left the gate open to the Trojan horse, to the hatred, to attacks. And still, our people, our courts, our politicians refuse to put North American society first. How can anyone not want to protect our society, our citizens, our modern way of life. How can we even for a moment think we should just absorb this hatred into our society. That is not to suggest many are not fine people. But one must remember, not one Christian is welcomed in most of those societies. 5.Both left and right need to care for our society first. When a mouse, or a rat sneaks into my house, poops all over, brings disease, lives off my food, in my clean house and breeds to the point I will be over run with numbers and filth...tolerating is the last thing I think of, whether I am left or right.

Many of the right in the US is not wrong. Migration, woke, sanctuary cities, DEI, excessive debt, industry, all crap and needs dealing with. What the US, and Canada font need is trump, the lies, the Wacko disregard for laws, traditions, congress the threats, the insults to once allies, the poor leadership in dealing with Ukraine, the out of the world stupidity of excessive over the top tariffs. But...while you think everyone is in disarray...no one is in more disarray than the US. Easy for you to view the world, hard for you to view inside your own house. The world needs help, not conflict that Trump has caused.

Of course we want change....don't put words in my mouth. What we don't want is oligarchy or dictatorship led by trump.

So, what is the going rate being paid for your sudden interest in Canada. Never in the history of this platform has anyone been able to put together such useless drivel. There us no one in Canada who doesn't know what a putz Trudeau is and was. There us no one in Canada that doesn't know that Trudeau used immigration for votes. There is no one in Canada that doesn't know he changed our culture forever. There is no one in Canada that doesn't know that if it wasn't for trumps threats that we would have a conservative government today. There is no one in Canada that doesn't know Trudeau let in the Trojan horse. But there is no one in Canada who wants anything to do with trump. What we have fallen into is the lessor of evils.

Wrong...the US bought big Pharma. Opioids are US big pharma, politicians, even trump takes BIG dollars for campaigns. Big Pharma owns the US, every street corner has a pharma/healthcare money industry. But flipping 180 degrees is dumb. Just plain dumb. The same industry, chemical, infiltrated your food chain, thanks to greed, yield, demands for MORE from the soil, more from the cattle, pigs, chickens, turkeys, bigger, fatter, more more more. GMO, 9 types of apples to 127, carrots in rainbow colors, anti biotics in every animal in the food chain, all ingested by people. Kennedy has made sense in some areas, but vaccines is not the area to jump on without real knowledge. You cannot have the uneducated making these evaluations. I recognize big pharma is pushing back through all the politicians they own. Allergies maybe a product of chemicals in the food...but no Bubba is going to prove that...it takes knowledge, education and controlled research, not nonsense like is being heard from Kennedy now.

Department of War...Created by the TACO president. This is actually funny... Let's push our allies away, lets drive India to join our enemy China, let's watch his friends from N Korea and Russia join with China, ...you could not write this script.

This is pure insanity. Let's go back to the Salem witch trials. Let's not trust science, let's trust Bubba's theory. How can anyone, from any political background accept these actions.

It is about time a US president and politicians don't something about drugs, crime, and billions of dollars being taken from citizens. They must also stop the babying of users. No chances. No free needles, no free spaces, no replace a drug with another, no safe haven unless it is in full time treatment. But, this approach will not last long. Trumps attention span is days. This is most likely an Epstein distraction. His mouth continues to run. Now he bad mouths his buddy in North Korea, and his bestie Putin and of course Modi in India. His mouth is destroying any opportunity to stopping a major war. The Department of War is going to be necessary. He is the diplomatic cause. Nobel is done. The 7 wars he stopped is a pipe dream. I pray he is serious about the cartels. But how can anyone believe this. Stay tuned to Sunday..the wind from the mouth with change direction.

There are 4 people in this world that for sure trump cannot handle because money is not number one priority. XI Putin Gloria Allred The guy who had Epstein killed... He thinks he can handle the first 2 but is wrong. He hates the third but has some fear Number 4....is out there.
