| Protests (peaceful that is) are ok, but kneeling before the American Flag???That is a disgrace and dishonor...Why do many want to dishonor our American Vets...Yes, I admit this is a free Country, so feel free overpaid athletes to disrespect it if that is how you feel...There are other ways to protest is all that I am trying to get across...Saddens me to see people kneeling before the Nations Flag while the National Anthem is playing...Actually, tearful... ༼☯﹏☯༽ |
In China, if they did that, they would be shot. . .

I can't even find any comments from him.
Anything in particular we should know?
By the way, he didn't fill in his orientation and he might be bisexual, because he also favorites pussy photos:

As soon as you got to the part where Strongmember# started with that 3/5th's a human crap, you should have stopped the argument there. It's misinformation CONSTANTLY used to minimize the greatness OR importance of our Constitution.
Being informed sure can go a LONG way!
Understanding the three-fifths compromise
The U.S. Constitution is a document that evolves with the times. Constitutional inadequacies and societal injustices are challenged, and social progress is the result. Instead of reverence for this brilliant document that ensures our rights, it is attacked by some as a severely flawed and even a racist contract.
One of the most widely used means to defame the Constitution is to manipulate perception of the three-fifths compromise. Agenda-driven academicians and committed ideologues routinely state the U.S. Constitution only recognizes blacks as three-fifths of a person. No context is given. This often-repeated falsehood foments disrespect of the Constitution and contempt for the founders who authored it.
The U.S. Constitution does not relegate blacks to “three-fifths of a person” status. Article I, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution states: “Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.” The “other Persons” were slaves.
The 1787 Constitutional Convention addressed the apportionment in the House of Representatives and the number of electoral votes each state would have in presidential elections based on a state’s population. The Southern states wanted to count the entire slave population. This would increase their number of members of Congress. The Northern delegates and others opposed to slavery wanted to count only free persons, including free blacks in the North and South.
Using the logic of the promoters of the “three-fifths of a person” interpretation, think of the constitutional ramification had the position of the Northern states and abolitionists prevailed. The three-fifths clause would have been omitted and possibly replaced with wording that stated “other Persons” would not be counted for apportionment. The Constitution, then, would be proclaiming slaves were not human at all (zero-fifths). This is an illogical conclusion and was certainly not the position of Northern delegates and abolitionists.
Counting the whole number of slaves benefited the Southern states and reinforced the institution of slavery. Minimizing the percentage of the slave population counted for apportionment reduced the political power of slaveholding states.
Denigration of the Constitution is not restricted to committed demagogues.
San Antonio’s U.S. District Judge Fred Biery addressed the Austin Bar Association on Law Day 2012. His speech focused on various social injustices in America’s past and how attorneys righted these wrongs. Biery used the example of then-recent Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III. The judge asserted that in 1787 when the Constitution was ratified, Griffin’s “ancestors … were counted only as three-fifths of a human being.” Biery is alarmingly ignorant. Or worse, he is consumed with the need to promote and further a personal creed.
There are other troubling aspects of the lifetime judge’s declaration. Biery’s speech was published in San Antonio Lawyer after he addressed the bar association. Didn’t any of the attorneys at the meeting who actually understood the meaning of that portion of the Constitution advise Biery of his misrepresentation?
David Gans is the director of the Human Rights, Civil Rights and Citizenship Program at the Constitutional Accountability Center, a think tank and law firm. The Express-News published a column by him on constitutional requirements in the past year (“Count all people, as Constitution requires, March 10) in which he stated that “someone who was enslaved would be counted as three-fifths of a person” for the purpose of determining representation in Congress.
The magnitude of this constitutional illiteracy is not restricted to those on the political left. Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice routinely stated in her speeches, “In the original U.S. Constitution, I was only three-fifths of a person.”
In 1787, the founders were attempting to form a union and preserve the nascent United States. This imperfect compromise allowed for preservation of the republic while also confronting the moral and systemic evils of slavery. Erroneous and distorted interpretations of the Constitution only intensify the societal divide in America.
Hope that gives a better understanding how the Lib Left Loons consistently lie about shit.
🇺🇸 Protect The 1st & 2nd Amendments - TRUMP 2020 🇺🇸
Yeah, yeah, yeah. In this argument some people go back to the beginnings of our republic or early wars. Some to the Civil War. Others to the 1960's or even now to the time the first knee touched the ground during a performance of the national anthem. It's all hooey. The truth is that you and your fellow bigots know you are wrong and you try to hide behind your amendment 1 and 2 to suit your arguments. There are good, honest cops out there. Most are decent and do a hard job to the best of their ability. Then there's the sons of bitches that "call a spade a spade". They think they wear a uniform to "keep them in line". Them n I g g e r s wont get away with anything.
Well, Black Lives Matter........to blacks. White lives matter to whites. And no one wants to see that there's something basically wrong with police departments that don't weed out the bigots in their ranks. I'm up to my eyeballs listening and reading about both sides of the argument. I rather see disrespectful people than murderers and their minimisers.
ME? I SAY OUTLAW ALL GUNS AND COPS SHOULD STAY OUT OF BLACK AREAS.
That's a segregationists statement.
Another word for segregationist: racist!
How about not having black areas and white areas at all?
We are different.Equal,but different.To try to erase that difference is ignorant.
I'm not saying there are no white or black areas in The Netherlands and it's true that minorities are much more concentrated in the poor areas and much less in the rich areas, but it's much more mixed here.
I live in a moderately priced row of houses and about 30% of families are first or second generation non-white immigrants. They are all doing well in their lives. They have good jobs, their children are doing their best in school or they are getting their careers well on the way. They are friendly, hospitable, social and trustworthy. As a matter of fact they make much better neighbors than the white people. In our whole street there are two white families we socialize with and the rest are just neighbors we greet on the street and maybe have some small talk with. They are all very private people.
The non white people are much more open and inviting. There are two families we socialize with regularly and two other families every now and then.
It feels like they just value community a lot more. I don't know if that is the same in the US and maybe it takes a lot more to fix mistrust between your people, but I think you're missing out from that separation.
It wont change until we change the head of the senate. Long guns for hunting is ok, Paramilitary rifles are are not. I believe we can change that
When 20 men go out to take someones guns,and only 3 leave empty handed bleeding,it won't take long for folks paid to "enforce" the law will tell the chief to go fuck themselves.Besides the only bumpstocks and shit of that sort I ever saw,were owned by the folks that would be expected to go around and gather every one elses. That is because they know more about what is happening,could happen and probably will happen now that a dem is going back in the white house.
Getting rid the guns is a liberal wet dream that won't happen in this century.
Do something about the reason someone would want to kill you or someone else.That is much easier and doable.
The constitution is an idea. An idea to achieve ever upward using compassion and unity as a tool to perform the image of God thus walking with him,her side by side as ONE. This is the idea. In this physical world of pain, suffering and egoism this limit will never be achieve but as we strive ever upward in attempt to form a perfect sphere so does our evolution of wisdom. The constitution was derived from Plato's Republic in order to define "justice" to achieve liberty for all. Doing what is right!
When we experience anger and hatred it takes this perfect sphere and dismantles it. Trump is the first president since Lincoln in an attempt to achieve unity through our hearts and compassion thus striving ever upward to reform the sphere of morality.

Maybe you are just trying to clickbait me with this one. It does seem Trump united 72 or so million voters.. not positive most recent count.. even if we say its higher.. it seems like people are arguing now more than ever.. that this country is very divided politically and to a level of greater aggression than before, so I definitely do not see evidence of that piece of the ending.
Shakespeare.
You are paranoid. First of all its closer to 80 million. That will be proven too since many votes were thrown in the garbage, shredded or burned..Luckily there is reserve databases.. I don't even know you... OR DO I?.. This raises my suspicions. as I said. You're critical thinking level is junior high proficiency. This is a debate stage here in forum. If you agree then great.. If not well that's fine too...
For your info,, the conservatives never argued about anything. Its the democrats that fund terror iincluding domestic terrorism which is a number of groups. It is the democrats using fake hoaxes, 25th amendment bullshit to say Trump is not fit to be president.. The people spoke.. as far whether they agree or not,, tell them I said "FUCK YOU"..Here in 2020 there is blatant fraud universally in the world. Here in the United States what is going on here is simple. Our country is being invaded by globalist's through economic channels. Traitors of the constitution are using voter fraud to form a coup... Nothing has been brought to court yet but it will...Since the left is trying hard to delay and postpone recounts and investigations it is not too hard to figure out they know what they did. We know what they did too.. Afterall,, if you are sure you won then why resist the recounts.. If they played straight up there is nothing to worry about... So why bitch????? Let the constitution and justice take its course..Why threaten to kill children if you don't get your way.. Sounds like terrorists to me. Again, tell the bastards I said "FUCK YOU"
You should have left it there.
First I am paranoid. Then you ask if you know me. Then talk about suspicions. Unless that was your little dramatic segway into landing your first punchy dis, about how my critical thinking doesn't qualify me for varsity Model UN. Is that the proficiency you're going for, or too high? The most disheartening continuing result of these debates I feel is that positions are seeming to harden. I attempt to concede a point or admit when I do not know something with certainty, in an attempt to.. (what was that word? I'll use the verb form) "unify" the two sides of our nation. Maybe you perceive that as weak debating, but call me Old School I just really respect the achievements of Lincoln and Trump bringing the people together. I try to remember to use compassion.
As far as the remaining content of this post, I don't recall taking a strong viewpoint about whether conservatives or democrats were the ones who had argued. I don't think I made strong comments on the election either unless I alluded to it some other time in another post.
If I believed all those things you are saying I would also be outraged. Actually I am chill. I'm not bitching about the recounts. If it helps people feel more confident in the results then we can let this play out a bit longer. The Trump legal team can do all investigations and present their findings to the various courts.
I hope, as part of us should all hope, despite which candidate we want in office, that we don't find our election had more holes than Swiss cheese, because if it was that easily done, I would have to question how long it has been that way, if the election has potentially always been rigged. If that emerges later as the consensus conclusion I fear our democracy and the foundations of our nation will come into question. Perhaps more so around the world where we have been trying to promote democracy for many years. The Constitution's strong reputation might get dragged down as collateral, the document you earlier spoke of as a triumphant capture of an ambitious idea that set us on the correct path toward continuing to achieve better.
If all legal and other measures result in a vote count with Biden holding significant electoral and popular vote leads I hope that you might consider re-evaluating some of your assertions.
Some of the things you mentioned like Fake Hoaxes from the Democrats (is this Climate Change or Covid, both of which are undeniable truths), funding domestic terror ( perhaps this stems from George Soros, a significant campaign donor yes, but still just one man, gave some money to some groups involved in demos/riots, I don't know what your definition of Globalist is exactly, because we live in a very global world. Politicians around the world love to push the nationalism button to get people riled up. We are still a sovereignty with perhaps more freedoms than any other nation, the economy and information sharing already went global decades ago, some of it natural, some of it driven by soulless corporations that only selfishly seek more profit for shareholders by design. While Corporations won that Citizens United case for free speech to donate to elections, and they also have the power to do many things, they lack final accountability. Corporations can't go to prison. Corporations have interests in many elections. So do foreign governments. There are likely domestic Americans who would like to cheat the election. The question now remains, is it really that easy? If it is that easy, how can we be so sure who is behind it all, after-all if it is so easy why didn't many other groups try to cheat the election.
I can only speak for myself but I did not threaten to kill children, didn't think we should not recount or listen to Trump's legal team, but under the premise that the world is a mess and fraud is easy, it makes it difficult to put fraud claims behind hundreds of whistleblowers who were first politically motivated possibly to say they saw shady things, then people began offering them money to come forward. And now it has gone next level to Dominion as well.
This nation is very tense right now. We need to somehow move forward, but hopefully not this disparagingly divided, so I won't end my post with an 'FSociety' homage to Mr. Robot. I'm not an anarchist. Just someone who cares, tries to stay informed, tries to listen, and has a little too much available time this Sunday evening he is now realizing.
Google globalistic regime.. then support your opinions.. Appears you don't know what these peope are trying to do

Btw I tried looking more into your globalist theory. I didn't want to respond without learning more. However, because I don't know about your particular theory does not mean I don't know about global economics and politics. This is actually my educational background and correlates with much of my career learning. If you want to list our sources from now on we can. I have no ill intent here. I only believe I am correct and hope to influence people to believe me according to my perceived knowledge
Look,, I gave my analogy on democracy and morality. It wasn't directed at you, just my analysis.. You are paranoid because you accused me of saying it was to trigger you.. THAT'S PARANOID so shut up. Your writing is clearly the same with Huxley999, FatPig-BElla , hotpussy and so many others attacking me with my religion.. I assert you are not who you say you are.
Sorry I was busy a few days. The bet I intended to be something that would not affect anyone financially, but was gauging confidence. It was about who would end up in the white house late January. It is still trending my way but I don't back it up with nothing. In a court of law the burden of proof for this major claim of major election fraud is on the accusers. All around the country the court cases are being lost, even when Trump appointed judges are involved.
Btw I don't know who those other people are and I don't think I wrote anythig about your religion...

And when you come down to it. ANY LIFE is worth more than some silly piece of music.
sorry you had that happen willy, to me from your pics, your dick when it is standing upright, seems very normal in size and nothing to be mournful about, being shy is awkward, I once was too - I guarantee if you "show hard for blow" standing at a urinal, nobody will embarrass you - heck they might grab it and jerk you off or haul you into a stall and suck you dry
