Not blind. He only watches hand picked videos from Iso. Laughing

Coach g-spot, I'm really disappointed. I was quite sure I'd raised a much more shocking point, but I guess you (as usual) didn't have the stones to comment on, or question that ... thing. Instead, you just quoted what I wrote immediately thereafter, conveniently leaving that ugly part out!

Well, coach L, here's what I really believe, FWIW. Every time I read about a "suicide" in connection with any kind of unusual news, I, like anyone with half a free-thinking brain. experiences a BS detector going off.

Can we pretty please start with simple logic?

Q: What kind of complete pansy fool kills themself for any reason?
A: Someone without the strength and discipline to continue living

Q: How could this possibly happen to a young alpha male-type, generally not the kind of person to give up on any battle, let alone life itself?
A: War, naturally. (but what kind?)

Realistically, one might expect to hear this kind of thing as a freak rare occurrence ... however, nothing could be farther from the truth, currently. Just look up the recent crazy spike in US military suicides!
WTF is going on? Shocked
Do we need Morewind? Surprised

Joe Scarborough Left Stunned By Focus Group of Trump Voters Talking About Jan. 6: ‘I Really Don’t Know Where to Start’


Quote:


MSNBC host Joe Scarborough was left rattled on Monday morning after NBC political analyst Elise Jordan played a tape from a recent focus group of 2020 Trump voters discussing the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

were mainly peaceful protests and that nobody died except for a
P
“When we were in Pennsylvania, in a focus group of Pittsburgh voters who all voted for Donald Trump, everyone thought that the election was not free and fair in 2020, the result being that Joe Biden was elected president. And so we have some of that right now that we are going to listen to. And then we hear their thoughts on January 6th and the insurrection at the Capitol,” Jordan began, introducing the lengthy clip.

“Doug Mastriano was at the insurrection and he was photographed breaching one of the restricted areas. Is that OK?” Jordan asks in the clip, referring to the GOP nominee for governor of Pennsylvania.

“Which area? Because I saw a video where Capitol officers are taking away barriers and unlocking doors,” responded one of the participants.

mlaronde,

I guess you are stepping up to defend isobars. I'm not surprised because he supported you in the past in your specious crusade against Covid19 vaccines. Dishonest folks tend to pool in the same places.

So, the rioters that Donald Trump unleashed were good freedom loving folks? As the video plainly reveals, that's hard to believe given the fact that they were attacking the Capitol Building in such an extremely violent and destructive way.

Peaceful folks don't act like that, even if they have a problem with the election results, but that seems to be lost to both you and isobars. Seems that you are one of the very unprincipled folks in America that support a violent revolution.
Forget democracy, right? Looking for an unfit Donald Trump to be king of America?

Guess again. And why the bad memory, you should recall I'm no Trump fan. Although you have to admit, the guy's not boring. Some people can throw a party, but this guy could throw a riot! Laughing (I'm probably not the first to say that)

Despite his questionable public leadership actions, I don't believe that DJT was actually a child molester. I'm reasonably confident that all the chicks at Epstein Isle were at least 14 years old. Shocked

Ha ha, just kidding. I have no more clue than the rest of you, as to which corrupt public leaders are child molesters, and which are simply corrupt public leaders.


hmmm filing a rape lawsuit against a billionaire who brags about suing for fun is not easy when one is a poor victim. Again a second witness also filed under penalty of perjury she witnessed it. Trump never sued either of them. He said he would sue anyone who lied about him and he had the money to do so. From what I rember at the time lawyers said it was very rare to see such documents filed in a opening of a case under penalty of Perjury... and trump had at least one sexual assault case filed before that around 1995.

OMG, you of all people using the term simple logic after downing a couple of bottles.

The two of us standing on the shore looking out to sea observing a UFO. Me, “ Look, a UFO. I wonder what it is?” You, “ Look, a UFO. It must be an alien spaceship that traveled millions of light years to spy on us.”

Yes, you have simple logic. Rolling Eyes

Answer B. Someone WITH the strength and discipline to protect his caregiver from the end stages of a dread disease. Prostate cancer end stages are about as bad as any disease can get, according to specialists. I'm not putting my already overburdened wife through that.

No doubt, a macabre turn in the topic. But thankfully, more progressive thought in your state accepts and recognizes death with dignity laws. You can go in a way that your caregiver can find balance, and so can you, in a peaceful way.

Hey Mike, I thought this might get your attention. Your argument has valor, but ... I'm not talking about older warriors here. The issue is young military, in (mostly ..not all) the prime of their lives, just calling it quits (supposedly!), for reasons which (if even known) defy imagination. Something is clearly not right here. By right, I mean "as it seems".
