Did you know that, in America, you are able to step outside your house without the fear of being attacked by a random person and mugged?
Did you know that, in other countries around the world, you do not have this right or peace of mind?
Do you know why we have that right in America? Because we have police officers.
Stop bashing on the men and women who keep you safe. They sprayed you with pepper spray because you are not above the law.
Stop acting like it.
And sitting in a school to make a point about the corruption of your own country is something that requires violence from police. Don’t you think the policemen should be were the real crimes are?
That's what getting arrested looks like. Its a choice protesters make, to get arrested. Man up. It washes off.
Hey, did you know . . . .
Police officers belong to . . . . unions . . .
And the repelican party would do away with collective bargaining rights?
You're bashing pelicans now? Where will it end?
Wait til he bashes you, Elmer Fudd, and all your cronies. I personally think that special home he lives in should take away his internet,don't you?
I have cronies? Where? I'd like to meet them. LOL.
BTW, sorry about what happened to your mother.
Thanks about Mom.........sniffle....I miss her so much......Your cronies as in Bugs Bunny, Yosemite Sam, etc. heehee
:) :) :)
no no, I like birds.
here, someone suggested we are not all equal, and being that it is an ideology with which I am sure you can identify, permit me to provide my response on that occasion:

which opened with the statement:
really, you all want everyone equal but here is the thing, everyone is not equal.
Truth? I'll hit you with some truth . . .
Right in the face. Mark it well - You have said: everyone is not equal.
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
Such a statement as made by you is completely, and totally, un-American. Men bled and men died, by the tens of thousands, in upholding the simple principle that, indeed, all men are created equal. You can nit pick all you like about what that means and nitwits often do - but the meaning is obvious - no one of us has more rights, no one of us has less rights, than any one of us.
I'm sure old Abe never considered that such an issue would be confusing - especially not among party faithful - yet here we are.
As for what I hope for this movement? Social, economic, and environmental justice. I realize that covers a lot of territory, and there is much to be done.
Toward that end, I look forward in eager anticipation to the day the repelican party ceases to exist. They stand steadfastly in the way of any and all efforts to achieve anything like Social, economic, and environmental justice.
That they will cease to exist I take as a given. They have told many lies, chief among them is the assertion that there is no global warming. I doubt the party, on its own, can survive the next five years, given that single lie and the facts as they appear right outside every single American citizen's own window.
But I am not content to wait until that day. Much more preferable is it, to add my voice to the wind of public discontent in the hope that we may indeed speed that process that is even now under way and unstoppable.
I am a sick and twisted individual, this I well know. In my darker moments I can hatch such plots and devise such stratagems that would see Machiavelli smile. I am sure we both know well what will happen with the addition of public scrutiny upon the repelican party.
Facts will emerge. And as they do, so will guilt. Guilt of corruption. We know too, that to keep that corruption hid there are those who will do anything, and kill anyone, toward that end.
Murtha I say.
And Ken Lay.
And so I say, as they scramble to keep their stinking ship of lies afloat we will watch and see who goes overboard first.
And I will cheer.
Before this is over, I am certain, they will be killing each other in droves as they attempt to hide all that they have done.
And I will cheer I say.
I will cheer and you can believe that I am American.

You can take that home to your masters,
and tell them:
chaos has come
