The Trump Presidency

You mean the heated rhetoric used by Trump, Limbaugh, Alex Jones, white supremacists and the ones complaining about that heated rhetoric.

Donald Trump is singularly responsible for ramping up the tension and doing it for his own gain. He talked about "carnage" when there really was none. My fear is that he may bring it on with his mouth.

Others have been doing it for a long time but we've never had a President before who was such a cheerleader for divisiveness and violence.

That's not "heated rhetoric".

I can't let you claim that the sun rises in the west. There are things called facts. They are real and you can't just change them when because you don't like them. Actually Fox News has proved that you can change them for a lot of people. But the original facts still remain, nut cases on The Right are the real problem and at this very moment are probably loading up to go hunting.

It;s been a long time - I may get my ad... s mixed up but here goes

waste is a verb and uninformed would be an adjective as in.
An uninformed voter wasted his/her vote.

No jump at all

My question wasn't "could you please use the words in a grammatically correct sentence"....

I'm not seeing the evidence that implies someone who didn't vote for the two major parties must be uninformed.

This is the kind of chaos I was hoping a Trump presidency would bring.

I keep seeing people saying "I condemn all violence" statements from politicians after this, sure would be nice if they condemned violence by cops. What they really mean is "we condemn violence by everyone but the government".
 
In the past 12 hours you have advocated the rape of a man in prison and applauded the shooting of another.

how does that line go?
" In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand at the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not that I'd become my enemy in the instant that I preach "
 
57 sanctioned the hit, less Republicans more for his party. I wouldn't be surprise he is having a beer seeing a gunmen shoot at them, probably pissed it wasn't more.

California has one of the strictest gun laws in the country. Face it, that problem will never go away, more criminals or insane have weapons illegally more than normal people and those who will not use them in this manner.

Did I say 57 is a piece of sh*t?
 
I applaud bad things happening to people who seek to deprive me of my life, my liberty, and my pursuit of happiness. If they were intellectually honest and had the same views I could accept that. What I can't forgive is the blatant disregard for facts and use of outright lies to push for violence and taking of basic freedoms from people who have not harmed anyone and are no threat to anyone. Sessions for example uses the pill epidemic killing people to advocate against Marijuana legalization despite all evidence showing that pot legalization decreases pill usage which saves lives because no one dies from smoking pot. There is also a ton of evidence that pot legalization saves lives because less people drive drunk. A conservative estimate is that legalization would save 10k lives a year and that's not even factoring the people whose lives will be figuratively saves by not being arrested. This isn't anything they don't know. They just ignore what they don't like. John Aslinger of the Bureau of prohibition wrote 30 doctors asking for recommendations that pot be illegal. 29 of 30 wrote back saying it should be legal. Take a wild guess which doctors recommendation he pushed and which ones he never mentioned when pushing for prohibition. When Nixon declared the war on drugs his own commission he appointed recommended pot not be illegal. He just ignored them. These people are war criminals and they need to be held responsible for their crimes against humanity wether it be by trial or by vigilante justice.
 
People have varying reasons for supporting prohibition. At this point in time most people support it because they were indoctrinated when they were young. John Aslinger supported it because with alcohol being legalized again he was about to be out of a job since he was the head of the Bureau of prohibition. He needed a boogeyman so he claimed some kid who murdered his family did so because of reefer madness. The media ran with it and people believed anything they read in the newspapers at the time. Nixon supported it because it was a way to target hippies.

I don't think most prohibitionists now do it for racist reasons, they do it for money and power. Police don't want to lose the funding that comes from the war on drugs. They have gone into business for themselves and use their unions to lobby against legalization and they use propaganda to fearmonger people into voting their rights away. Advocating incarcerating millions of people to protect their overtime pay is straight up evil.

What a joke

It is ironic that all this talk for the last 2 years was about the violence from the right. None of that materialized and yet we are seeing many instances of radicalized leftists like anti fa
