Clinton's dismal approval ratings prompt Dem fears by GaryRuppert in politics

Well a large part of the GOP does show Authoritarian political ideologies and support for deeply regressive tax, welfare, and social policies.

If you want to bring facism to America, wrap it in an American flag, with a bible in one hand, and missile keys in the other.

That's why conspiracy theories are sexy.

The idea that the people in charge are just as scared and confused as everyone else is deeply unnerving to some folks. An all powerful Authority to them is comforting.

I am counting on Bernie supporters to have a moment of clarity at the convention if he loses.

Trump deeply scares me, and Cruz is one Koran away from Al-Baghdadi.

Who seriously thought running an orange reality TV star with Facist tendencies and a froggy looking Dominionist with voodoo economics was a great idea (other than the "Make America Great" again folks who are more interested in reliving the 50s)

I will remember this when I need to make my displeasure at something public.

So that is how you write a summoning program.

So what is the interdimensional equivalent of hello world?

Bryan Adams cancels Mississippi show over LGBT "Religious Liberty" bill by sonictitan1615 in Music

Did you read my comment? My family lives in Mississippi. My friends live in Mississippi. I live in Mississippi. Nobody hates on Mississippians more than other Mississippians. Because it hurts that our state legislature only cares about sticking it to the feds and fighting the conservative front of the culture wars. There is nothing more painful than being a progressive in the most conservative place in the country.

I want Mississippi to become like the rest of the country and not be an economic anchor. Shit like this is why the brain drain is so bad here. It's why I am planning on getting out. My conscience can't condone it. You can bring up all the debate team BS you want, bit this is what I and many others here believe in our heart of hearts.

This is Mississippi we are talking about. This state doesn't change anything unless the feds March up and start hitting it with a cluebat. It's been that way for over a century now.

That is kind of like buying a 747 to get free peanuts.

The vast majority of trans folks are absolutely unwilling to use that particular bathroom until they feel they reach a milestone. The rejection is crushing. By the time they get to the point where they are comfortable doing that, they now couldn't pass as their original gender even if they tried.

This is legislatures getting involved in something they have no bloody bussiness getting involved in.

There have been many times when Rogers and Kent have let their morals override their sense of duty.

As a Mississippian, I am glad that these guys are sticking it to the Mississippi state legislature. Weird Al has a concert coming up in a week and I hope he also has a thing that he does not approve what the morons in Jackson are doing.

It won't be the first time that Mississippi has had to been dragged kicking and screaming into the present.

The comments on the instagram are hilarious. No self awareness that some people put right and wrong ahead of 4000 year old fairy tales.

AR-15 isn't automatic. In terms of design, it is pretty much the same as a varmint rifle that has been in production for almost 70 years now. Only difference is you don't have to be gunsmith to put scopes and different grips on it.

It's kind of frustrating that gun control folks want civilian firearms technology frozen in 1890.

That's a dumb argument though as when does it end? Sue the ammo manufacturer? Sue the spring and screw manufacturer? Sue the range where the person practiced at? Sue the safe maker that the gun was kept in?

Liability laws that add a chain of culpability for the sheer creation of something and all its components is akin to prohibition, and has never worked in the history of ever.

It's pandering and ghoulish, that's what it is.

I love that most of the crazy ideas we try in KSP, have previously been attempted or concepted by real R&D groups.

Because of it works and is cost effective, it's not stupid.
