The Partisan Divide on Issues

These days I am handicapped and still am threatened.  I find it amusing.  It is not the dog that is usually yapping and noisy that is the threat.  My tenant keeps a St Bernard called Big Charley on the back porch.  He is there so much that everyone assumes he is chained there.  Um, no.  He is just obedient.  One day someone came after my tenant with intent to rape.  Her response was to yell a little loudly the word, "Charley".  The guy learned the difference between chained and obedient, and suddenly decided to leave the property. 

The military I respect.  The civilians?  The KKK?  The Neo Nazi?  The Boogaloo Bois?  The militia?  They have not given any reason to respect them.  

Yes, the liberals have mostly discovered that protest and legislation is a more effective route than violence.  As I’ve said many a time, insurgent war and nukes have made conflict much less cost effective than it used to be.  Lately, non violence is usually effective against most opponents.  Then again, most opponents listen to the people.  There are more than a few autocracies that don’t listen.  The Soviet Union finally gave up without violence, but that is no guarantee that all autocratic regimes will.  

But I haven’t any real hope you will think things through.  You let your hunter gatherer emotions control you.  You don’t listen or think things through.  But, hey, COVID leaves me far too much time.  Might as well waste it here.

True. If you know your stuff, you don't have to flaunt it or prove it. All you have to do is show it. I learned that while playing sports. I don't pick fights. I stand my ground and don't back down and force them to make the first move. Once again, who's territory am I in? I picked one fight with a religious conservative/ Evangelical in all the years that I've been posting with you and the others here. Other than that, I've spent my time defeating those who made/make the mistake of picking a fight with me and defeating those who ganged up on me and challenging the integrity of people like you who sit in their safe Ivory Towers and lie and act like traitors and viciously attack our soldiers and our police without seeming to know or understand of the situation that they're in during times of war or the situations they find themselves in while on the job and not showing any signs of having any appreciation or mercy for them. You are a Liberal piece of shit to me and there is nothing you can do or say to change my mind or improve the lowly status that you and others here have earned with us at this point. You are fair game here, fair game on the streets, fair game in bars and fair game where ever you pop up because there isn't a decent Democrat to defend you from us. All you have to save you from us is a group of transplanted Republicans that you were at war with before Obama.
