The liberals/leftists/socialist cabal is hard at work, and no one seems to do a thing about it.

We have just passed the "ballot box" stage as far as i can tell, our vote is meaningless in the face of national level fraud.

The video made me want to cry.  Not for myself but for my grandchildren.  Patriotism is dying.  Because many politicians are whoring themselves and our country for their own greedy agenda. 

It's not a "we" generation.  It's now a "me" generation.

F*ck BLM and all other socialist agendas.  You f*ckers think you are the only ones oppressed?  Well F- you and everything about you if that's what you think.

Your sick slogan is racist.

Rant over.

Wait. That’s what they said in the 50’s, no 60’s, wait 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, 2000’s, 2010’s, now 2020.

Ebbs and flows. Pendulum swings.

2A rights is what I’m worried about.
And how long it takes a dang case to get to the Supreme Court.

I too worry about the future.   I worry that Trump might fuck it up for the GOP in Georgia.  That's the last guard against democrats and potential socialist policies.

Agreed, I think it is rather unlikely. A lot of stars would have to align before freedom really ended in the USA

Move/shift to gov't dependency.  "The Government is responsible to protect, feed, provide healthcare, etc".  Sound familiar.  The thing is many who believe in socialism is a great thing haven't paid into the system that "affords" that entitlement. . .

A good friend's brother recently came upon this realization.  He was formerly all for "free college education for all".  Not anymore. . .

a mockery of gun owners...reverse psychology. People were laughing at him about arming themselves and taking responsibility for their own protection and the general public will still laugh at the thought of defending ourselves. Most if not all people think that is the govt's responsibility when we board an airplane. The problem most people don't see is that the govt is not in the air with us at all times. They are always on the ground to disarm us but not always with us in the air.

You mean the Gov't won't always protect us?  And that the Gov't doesn't necessarily have citizen's best interests at heart at all times?  No way!

To all the gov't officials (especially you two, joe and kamala....) that assure us lemmings of the American public that:

gov't. will protect us from crime.
gov't. will protect us from burglars.
from rapists.
from home invasions.
from civil violence.
from property damages.

You have harped constantly about how gov't. will take care of us.  How gov't. will keep us safe.

I have a f*ckn question for you.  If you disarm us and take away the ability for us to defend ourselves,

How in the hell are we going to protect ourselves from YOU?  (AND YOUR SOCIALIST BS version of gov.t

Armed citizens is what keep you f*ckers honest.  Long live 2a.  Long live the Republic.

What no one is saying is why don't people go to a school that they can afford.  Just because you got into Yale, doesn't mean you have to go there.  Especially if not becoming a real doctor or like profession that will be able to pay your student loans.  Doing that is like getting a loan with no credit or income check to buy a Lambo.  Then after 4 years, your payments start for the $500,000 car. No way that works out.

I went to UH because mom and dad were paying and didn't want them to spend more on a mainland college.

It's not only that.  IMO, a lot of it comes from sense of entitlement and a misconception of equal opportunity.

My buddy's brother (who since changed his mind) didn't go to college because "studying wasn't his thing".   ::) Sooo, if college was free, he likely would have gone.  Thinking that he wasn't afforded the "opportunity".  He didn't work for his opportunity, so why should parents, or anyone else pay for it. 

And good excuse for "I was only accepted to UH".   ;D

People ARE saying that -- people like Mike "Dirty Jobs" Rowe.  But the people saying it don't make the MSM headlines.

The kids and parents are being lied to.  They are told the kids NEED these degrees to get top paying jobs.  In fact, most of the grads not only can't find those jobs in those fields, but they start  out their adulthood saddled with more debt than almost anyone ever did straight out of college 15+ years ago.

There are some who pay their own way through scholarships, grants, and actually earning minimum wage as they go.  Others work a couple of years and then apply to college with money they saved.  Still others use military and private employer benefits to afford school.

Unfortunately, the majority have had loans pushed on them.  When you apply for financial aid, and you make too much to qualify for actual aid, they tell you that you and your child qualify for a loan.  So, both the student AND THE PARENTS are being told "If you want to borrow the money now, and pay it back with no payments until after your student graduates, just sign the forms."  Super easy -- barely an inconvenience.  As long as the student remains enrolled with at least half-time status, there are no payments.  BUT interest continues to accrue the entire time!

This is one reason why people who probably know better are taking the loans.  Because they CAN!  And, having easy money means they can afford to send Janie and Johnny to a "better" (i.e. more prestigious) school, hopefully parlaying that school name into a larger salary.
