So...you are in favor of making it harder for certain people to vote based on the party they probably are going to vote for. Link to comment

Unfortunately these are the consequences for our global neighbors of the U.S. being MIA on the world stage. And Trump is either too stupid or too much of a Putin fanboy to stand up to any of it. 1 Link to comment
Moiraine Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Lukashenka supported Russia against Ukraine. He also won’t allow people to photograph him from any angles that show his bald spot. There were military all over in Minsk when I went there including at a concert acting as security. And they still have KGB and still call it KGB. Link to comment

Because the act of breaking a window or two automatically "incites" everyone, who were only there to be part of a peaceful protest, to burn and loot. How does Umbrella Man in MN cause the looting and burning in Atlanta? Or LA? Or Portland? 1 Link to comment

Do you think the same people protesting in Kenosha are protesting in Lincoln, or Ferguson? 1 Link to comment
