    Some Red State/Blue State Indicia

    I’m in the People’s Republic of Massachusetts for the weekend. Last time I was here I said Boston was the city I would pick if I had to live in a city. Beautiful place, surrounded by water, so much history, friendly people, etc. This time it’s no less of any of those things, but I don’t think...

    Is Free Speech Under Attack in this Country?

    We all know Harry is burning some illegal drugs while he does this. Just arrest him for those.

    I rode Amtrak from NYC to Canada and back a couple of years ago. It was a great experience, with the exception of the stretch from NYC to somewhere around Springfield Mass. I just don’t know why anyone would voluntarily subject themselves to that as anything but a backup form of transportation...

    Another massive tax focused on the middle class. Rich can avoid it and poor get assistance. Mine has been running $500 per month all Summer.

    I remember being skeptical when Tucker took over for O’Reilly. Then he seemed to prove me wrong. Lately he’s been way out there. It’s too bad because he was really dialed in for a while.

    There are some fights where you are better off to just grab a Coke and some popcorn and watch behind glass so you get the full entertainment value without rolling in the mud or being spat on.

    “I feel like this is unnecessarily argumentative…” because I keep being argumentative.

    You would stop noticing this stuff if you just stopped looking. That’s how we manage to have elections that are so secure.

    This post reminded me of the disease outbreak that nearly wiped out civilizations in Central and South America after contact with Europeans, greatly reducing the number of people available to those civilizations for slavery or human sacrifice. Of course it also brought to mind the slave...

    Sounds like he fits thethe’s immigration parameters perfectly then. The best and brightest in a field of need.

    Part of me wants to blame it on UNC since I know what kind of a joke they are. But his demographics mean that he had to clear a high-ish bar just to get in, if he did. That makes me think he’s more in the paid protester/useful idiot category. Lots of drugged out people can be found steps from...

    It’s weird to me that a guy like this can go a symposium at Harvard and tell kids that they should use violence as a form of protest and then not have any legal or professional consequences if those kids do it. Something like conspiracy, accessory, or inciting should be used for that.

    Back when Islamic terrorism was in full swing I made the suggestion that we drive an armored division into Mecca and bury remote controlled nukes, then tell the religion of peace that they should control the crazies. I think it would have saved a lot of lives.

    A short term advantage for certain. I think the long term benefits of the colonized dwarf any short term gains made by the colonizer. It’s pretty easy to see that none of the European powers are better off now than if they had never competed for colonies. I don’t think that’s true of the former...

    Okay. Pretend a terrorist group just ran across the border, kidnapped a young lady in your family, killed the people around her, then raped her, publicly tortured her, paraded her down the street to the cheers of citizens, and put a bullet through her brain. Then they hid under or in a school...

    This is pretty much where I’m at. The issue is that, as thethe said, it’s hard to trace the money of the people who have bought the politicians. I remember when MSNBC was outraged at Obama for not giving out “street money” in Philly for his first campaign. I thought they were crazy so I looked...

    I read somewhere that in the Israeli military it’s known as mowing the lawn. They have seen the same cycle play out too many times.
