    I watched my uncle die in a shitty VA hospital, because he was negligently exposed to a chemical that would slowly kill him, in a war he didn't want to fight, and I know exactly what side of this he would stand on.

    Sorry about your uncle and my condolences. You would have no argument from me about the VA and how our blood and treasure are being treated. After I got out of the military in the 80s, I had to use one of the VA facilities in South Florida for a third grade ankle sprain. They made me wait for 8 hours before I get to see a PA and he gave me a script for some extra strength Tylenol, I threw the script back in his face, laughed and hobbled out of that badly run facility.

    When I moved to TX, again I wanted to try the big VA facility in the Texas Medical center, do you thing that place would get their shiet together? That’s a big hell no, when it is being run by incompetent, idiotic bureaucrats, it is the same everywhere.

    I am extremely blessed with good health and the only 2 times I had to use the VA in the past, they failed me big time. I have seen other vets with much more serious health issues passing out while waiting for their turn to be seen.

    The VA under Mr Trump is different now, the lousy people in charge in the past, a lot of them are gone. The people running the show take Mr Trump’s promise to our vets seriously and things are better now. It is not perfect but it’s a far cry from past years.

    That piece of shiet coward vermin proved my theory about human scumbags. That white dude truck driver did not want to fight or put up a resistance, and he still gets a beating within an inch of his life.

    It is better to go out on your shield as a warrior than to be fukked like a w****.

    2021 is gonna be fascinating no matter what. Kinda interesting that the democraps are so against law abiding gun ownership and pro mob intimidation/ injustice and anti police,...it’s like they know the only thing between the hoard and your stuff/livelihood is the police and your guns. It is no longer difficult to rationalize 30 round magazines when you have videos of the mob chanting for homeowners to give up their homes

    Out of the main players in the burn loot and murder 2020 competition, it seems to be that Atlanta fizzled out, not surprisingly fair weather southern folk and I guess them killing the child near Wendy’s was the breaking point.....so Chicago and Portland is the big two? Or would you still put Seattle and NYC in the conversation...which city is winning the competition?

    Speaking on behalf of Os Trollinium, I urge all D&D members to vote Biden as what you're seeing in Portland and around the country is but a sliver of what you will see in a second Trump term.

    I don't think I have ever in my life used the term woke to describe myself. In fact on this board, the only people who seem to use the term woke are people like yourself who rarely have a clue what they're talking about.

    I've lived in America 47 years, I know that money/corruption in politics and culture wars/racism are why problems don't get solved. As soon as someone is elected they're taking money and running to be re-elected. We have an entire political party that convinces tens of millions of Americans to vote against their own economic interests for the sake of culture wars/racism. These issues are simple to identify.

    So the videos you post without context from twitter must be seen and believed but the tweets and videos I see on twitter, I should just not believe my lying eyes on those? The cherry picking is absurd.

    Speaking to your "events from before you were born". I've asked you multiple times now to explain why whites have 10x the household wealth than blacks. Answer or stop tagging me.

    So 160k dead is a false number eh? Mkay. :confused:

    You can look at my post history by searching Andy Ngo and my name. You're welcome.

    It sounds like you are exactly the type of articulate and well informed person the GOP would promote for a Republican Congressional run. You should follow up.

    I thought that as well but last I saw on the twitter, DHS still has troops shooting non-lethal ammo at protesters but they don't appear to be doing the secret police thing any longer. I think unfortunately because there is little on the ground media that is vested in covering facts rather than creating stories around their respective boogeymen, a lot of what you're seeing posted here by right wing posters is cherry picked. I've not followed this thread, only responding to people who feel a need to tag me so I don't know if this has been posted but this came across my feed the other day and just posted officially today.






    I can also post all the tweets of Nazis, Proud Boys, and hate groups coming from out of town to be agitators at these protests. This right winger that fired into a crowd is from Wisconsin, a well known hate monger. Somehow, all of this information doesn't get any of your collective attention. As I said before, this is militant police, hate group agitators, and protesters/agitators all coming together in a chaotic stew.

    Here is a Portland police officer talking about how they can't use de-escalation training without more funding for more training. Maybe they should stop buying all their battle gear and use that money on training, I guess that might work. So nightly they declare a riot, whether one is actually taking place or not, they fire into the crowds and then they start chasing people. I can't find it now but I had a video of a wall of protesters with shields and a gang of police running into them and jumping through them like a scene out of Braveheart. There's all kinds of stupidity going on in Portland all around.

    It's a joke. Some of you take the post bit titles like they're serious business.

    that's reassuring, I thought you genuinely wanted to be considered an Honorary 99er. Like, how lame would that be?

    :cool:

    Post data, and please not from AOC or any other senseless socialist.

    Deflect, deflect and deflect some more. Way to go! Showing your true colors.

    Lulz, you don’t even have a clue. I actually agree with things on both sides. I don’t walk around or post on here acting like the GOP is the disgrace of the earth or the elitist. I also don’t walk around acting like the Dems are a disgrace or elitist either.

    The fact that you are so ignorant of real issues is hilarious and quite frankly, dangerous to society as a whole. Maybe you’re just a troll, or maybe you truly believe the things you post/say.

    Regardless, you’re not doing anything worthwhile progressively. So keep hiding behind your IP.

    good to see you in the game thread. I almost liked you. :D but I'm sure that must have been the gin and tonics talking ;)

    The socialists at the White House? The socialists in Texas, Georgia, and Florida? Which socialists? You're coming off as increasingly conspiratorial. Just post the evidence of your conspiracies, then we can discuss. Otherwise, not so much.

    Honestly, I don't even know what the heck you're complaining about now. You're quite scattered.

    Which issue am I ignorant of? Link?

    You should walk around here acting like the GOP is a disgrace. They nominated and elected the most corrupt, lying ass President in history. A psychopath, a malignant narcissist, a racist, and a wanna be dictator that they continue to enable and support. Seriously, this guy refuses to state he'll accept the results of an election unless he wins? The same dopey dumbass that said millions of illegals voted in the last election without presenting any proof? It's the same GOP that conducted an unparalleled number of filibusters to obstruct Obama's agenda, the same GOP that for almost an entire year refused to fill a Supreme Court vacancy which was a ridiculous power grab. The same President and GOP that fanned the birtherism nonsense about Obama. The same President and GOP that is suing to take away pre-existing conditions protections. The same President and GOP that promised a great health insurance plan but has shown us not a damn thing. I mean, it's crazy you're so willfully ignorant of the conduct here. You want to talk about some guy getting shoved in Portland when the entire government is filled with corrupt, incompetent officials that actively undermine the government as a matter of policy. I'm not even touching the corrupt DOJ and the abuse of pardon powers. Give me a break.

    Then the coup de gras, the many instances in which Trump has obstructed justice detailed in the Mueller Report for which he was impeached and should have been removed from office if not for the corrupt GOP Senate led by Mitch McConnell. I'm sure you've actually read the Mueller Report unlike 99% of the Fox News target audience.
