So you're willing to accept the violent unconstitutional treatment of American citizens by the New AmeriKKKan Gestapo? We're starting to see the reasons for them wearing masks and having ZERO identification. The ones getting caught and somewhat identified are simply being let go after committing pretty violent assaults on American citizens. I'm curious why they aren't in jail, like they would have been back in Old America. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let me help because a new old America now exists. The US is currently led by a dictator King out for blood. He only hires loyal servants who obey without question. The courts are nothing but a speed bump. A federal judge appointed by Reagan stated that “The effect of these targeted deportation proceedings continues unconstitutionally to chill freedom of speech to this day,” .. William Young concluded, in a scathing, 161-page opinion that he described as the most crucial he’s delivered in his 30 years on the bench. Previously US judges ruled that many actions of the King are unconstitutional. Those opinions mattered not in the King's kingdom. Oyez, oyez, oyez, from the town criers on FOX there was no criticism or even mention of those opinions. In the public markets there was no criticism of the King because people didn't want to be put to the sword. Commanders who served bravely in the armies of the land were brought together. They listened in silence as the naked King berated them, praised himself and promised vengeance on his enemies. Edited October 2 by Phil1111 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry my friend pain, suffering, possibly violence and then death. Such is the nature of human existence in the new Kingdom. Think of happiness from the years past.

We have more PI lawyers than we have chicks with major cojones, unfortunately. And not just in Portland. The numbers for building a resistance are against us, seems to me, mostly owing to our aging and self interested population. In other words you, me, and everyone else who posts here.

Trump appointed HER. So much for his cognitive abilities. It would appear that he gets so mad when things do not go as he wants, his mind gets a little scrambled.

Pretty much, like the rest of us here, I have contained myself to deploring the situation and arguing online with folks too simple minded to see what is happening unlike my superior self. How's about you? I've disabled facial recognition on all devices, although I have increased the AI functions on my security video system and am now collecting tags and faces. Home perimeter security improved as well, and personal protection devices are at the ready. I have been in near constant contact with multiple congressional critters and expressed my concerns, and my feelings of being threatened by our own government - more so given having spent most of my life around and in the military. Sadly, canned responses are all they can provide. Our government is broken. I do NOT access the internet from any of my personal devices without a VPN connection. I'm trying my best to not provide ANY financial contributions to organizations and companies that choose to not support American citizens or our Constitution. I also try to make regular laps around the local republican party office - especially on the days they have events - on my motorcycle, SCREAMING at their support of a convicted felon rapist pedophile. I'm also talking to some ex-pat friends and investigating other countries. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
