I never understood why veterans support the people who like sending others to war for no good reason. Bush, Cheney, and Trump never served, got multiple bogus deferrals, and had no family members who served. Kerry was a war veteran, but somehow, he's a piece of shit. Makes no sense.

I've been watching the PBS "Vietnam War" series. It's pretty good. They got to the Nixon years and they've been playing tapes LBJ and Nixon made that prove Nixon colluded with South Vietnam to extend the war to help him get elected, then prioritized his re-election over the lives of US soldiers. Some real f-ing evil on a level that is hard to believe. Back in the 1980s there were rampant far left conspiracy theories about him being this evil, but I had a hard time accepting it. But now it's all been proven true.

So I'm listening to this scumbag lie to LBJ, listening to him construct plausible lies with Kissinger, all to keep his hold on power, all of it killing his citizens, and I feel nostalgia for a time when my President was smart enough to do evil on purpose.

Sad.
 
I dunno. I'm not turned on by most women, but there's something about Reality Winner that gets me hot and bothered

Accused NSA leaker called America 'the worst thing to happen on the planet'

The word Inmate on her shirt gets me hard

Me too! As a boy I thought she was so hot. A super fit figure skater who was also a badass having people knocked off.

You lost me there. She's as white trash as it gets, and she's always been a bit thick and short (very much so now). Nancy Kerrigan grew-up in the same town as my wife, and they both skated at the same place (but not at the same time).
 
I don't usually share Facebook posts, but this one makes the point very well.

A man purchased 49 firearms, bump-fire modifications, several thousand rounds of ammunition, and several pounds of ammonium nitrate within the past year and it never so much as raised a concern to anyone...

Under no uncertain terms, this means there is no system in place; there are no warnings; there is nothing that alerts the FBI, ATF, NSA, CIA, Homeland Security, or any Federal, State, or Local law enforcement authority whenever a terrorist obtains an arsenal of weapons, ammunition, and several pounds of a compound that readily forms an explosive mixture, in a relativity short amount of time on U.S. soil...

HOWEVER, under Title 21 U.S.C. 830 and Title VII of the U.S. Patriot Act, how much decongestant cold medicine you purchase is monitored and a person is legally prevented from buying more than 2 boxes of Claritin D in a 30-day period...

I guess we don't have a freedom to bear decongestants

There are state, city, and town laws about how many cars one can register, how many gallons of beer one can make, how many dogs one can have. The contrast with firearms is just ridiculous.

And one would think that rational, law-abiding citizens would be all in favor of keeping things under control, so as not to tarnish the image of the gun owner.
 
I have never understood how regulations and background checks interfere with ones rights.

I don't mind guns, as long people use them properly and not for mass murder spree.

There was a time, I owned 6 guns. But unfortunately, I had to sell them all to earn some money when I was unemployed. I could see a limit a human should own, not as much as that douche ready for a zombie apocalypse.
