Black Lives Matter Utah chapter calls American flag 'symbol of hatred' | Fox News
I see this gaining traction on the left because it is a direct challenge to those who are scared to death of being labeled a racist on any terms. She adds to its effectiveness by saying 'walk in my black shoes, this flag is racist'. My gut tells me we are going to see more of this becoming mainstream.

The confederate flag was a valid issue, as well as the confederate statues. It's always been puzzling to me that the symbols of those who attempted to tear the U.S. asunder were idolized. Democrats have a problem with a significantly growing movement in their party of not just criticizing America, but hating it. Detest it for all that it stands for because of its history and social mores of yesteryear that no one in the present has control over. Simultaneously they offer no alternative other than to tear it down while the democrat leadership remains mum in fear of being labeled racists themselves. I honestly believed the race card was losing effectiveness as a political tool. It's plain to see that it is now more powerful than ever in cowing democrats into allowing radicalism to become a movement and identity of their party.
Michael Avenatti sentenced to 2.5 years in prison for Nike extortion case | Fox Business
Remember, this is the guy the left was fawning over because they thought he had the goods on Trump (who still hasn't been prosecuted for one single thing). https://twitter.com/i/status/1405515679558680578

Looks like old Mike gets to play the role of Stormy Daniels for a couple of years.
Oh, the irony.

If you could read the article I referenced in the political let's talk about thread it is explained pretty well there. The hatred the progressives have for....pretty much everything. But also why the fan the racism flame as if their lives depend on it. It is a WSJ op-ed behind a pay wall but if you have a way around that it is worth reading. It explained a lot.
Anyone else feeling a bit conflicted about Team USA Basketball getting their [BLEEP] handed to them? Like sux for the Country but couldn't happen to a better bunch?

Wondering if they aren't tanking on purpose. Even if it's not for politics reasons, the NBA has gotten pretty comfortable throwing meaningless games.
Nothing crazy ever happens in my county because we're small and rural and people are just trying to live their lives. When the George Floyd protests started up we had a couple dozen people protest peacefully in the local walmart parking lot and that's about as exciting as it gets around here. Thank God. But today I say some stencils spray painted on a couple of control boxes next to a railroad crossing that just shows that even in a small town there are shady people. Evidently we have a chapter of a white supremacist group here and they're spray painting stencils of their name (patriot front) and logo and another of the country that says, "not stolen" above the image and "conquered" below it. These are painted in solid red and solid blue.
I went to their website on a secure browser and these are some crazy alt-right folks. Not much is said about these groups but they pose as much of a threat to this country that the alt-left does. Especially if they're as extreme as these folks are. They believe the only people who have any right to this country are those of european descent (not sure what they think about native americans) and if you are not like-minded they consider you a traitor. I guess it shouldn't surprise me that a group like this is in rural NC but I damn sure don't like it. It gives me an eerie feeling. People who don't think racism still exists only need to read about people like this who live and work among us all. Some are local officials, some are cops, some own businesses. It may not be systemic but it's there just under the surface. I generally don't look into groups like this because I have enough of life going on and don't need anything else on my plate, but to not be aware is to do myself wrong because the enemy is not just coming from the left.

These are painted in solid red and solid blue. That's said to be trap lead by a certain agency. They spray painted some Floyd monuments out of no where and supposedly have no history. Both sides need these groups gone but seems the agency has informants in the alt-right ones and ignores the left ones. As long as they don't do anything illegal, everyone has free speech and can think what they want. You can't police feelings or you just end up creating more members.

How can you watch this and not know that this is not healthy? The American liberal needs to wake up and realize that their concern for people is being exploited. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Vietnam veteran dies of heart attack after attempted carjacking in Chicago (kbtx.com)
This guy serves two combat tours in Vietnam just to be killed by a couple of lowlifes. It doesn't make sense. Chicago voted in the black lesbian. She checks off all the labels. Why is this stuff still happening?
