Surprised? I'm not. This kind of thing has been 'happening' for years.

Quite right. It was fairly obvious to anyone paying even a passing attention to what's been going on in the last couple of years. They will burn in hell for murdering millions of defenseless babies, in or out of the womb.

This is one of those bright ideas that just screams for a reductio ad absurdum analysis. Take the original premise, in this case, that some modern people should pay some other modern people 'reparations' for an injustice perpetrated some 150 years ago by some other people against yet other people, none of whom have any bearing or relationship to those living today; whether those supposedly paying up or those on the receiving end of this modern day transfer of funds. Now let's extrapolate that out.

The idea of the German people paying reparations to the Jews for the holocaust, for instance. Good idea. Then there's all the millions of people murdered by Communism in the 20th century. Shouldn't the Russian and Chinese governments be paying out for the loss of family members during these times of governmental insanity? It certainly seems to fit the sentiment, does it not? Pol Pot would certainly be in for some shellackings in that case, wouldn't he?

Then there's the people who sold all these other people into slavery in the first place. They were just as guilty of sustaining the African slave trade as the Yankee traders who gave them beads and tools in return for their captives, is that not so? They need to pony up as well, according to this logic.

Then we get into some really egregious injustices, like those perpetrated against women throughout the ages. How many women were kept down, humiliated, distrusted, belittled, you name it, all in the name of male dominance? More to the point, how much should the male half of the population pony up to their 'better halves' to make good on the misery they undoubtedly wrought upon their female counterparts? Half of everything? More? How do you quantify it? Is it even possible?

Taking this reparations idea to its logical conclusion, it appears that all of humanity owes all of humanity everything. Okay, so let's all pay each other, consider the trillions of debts retired, and go on with our lives just as we did before, because we all paid each other so we all finished up right back where we started.

Or we can simply learn from the past and resolve not to make those mistakes in the future. Deal?

I'll post it later, when I get home.

Want the original?

It's their hysteria that leads me to believe that there is more real peace now than before Trump's election. They absolutely hate to see him garner even the smallest of successes and here he is winning big time all over the globe. It's driving them absolutely bonkers!

"We"? Don't include me in that "We" thing, I been saying all along the Russia and Putin are not our enemies, nobody heard it and now I'm being proven correct. As for 'Little Rocket Man', I think he finally found out why it's a bad idea to threaten the US. It feels so good to have an actual grown man in the White House again.

How about not letting them in in the first place?

Didn't 'fit the narrative', did it?

Ha! They do now! Think they care? I think it's freaking hilarious!

Another story that doesn't 'fit the narrative':

"Hamed, who survived his injuries, has pleaded not guilty to aggravated assault and terrorism charges."
Imagine that.

Maybe you should sue the Purple People Eater, looks like he made plenty of money:

Then you get a shorter version of 'part G'.

He's a nationalist, for sure, but he has a good point with the southern border. You don't hear him raising the alarm on the northern border because the threat is from the south, not the north. When he says they're trafficking in people, what he means is that they're slavers, in the old school meaning that they literally deal in humans being owned and exploited by others. When he says they bring drugs, he doesn't mean a few ounces of pot for the weekend blowout, he means fentanyl and heroin, the kinds of drugs that kill people every day. When he says they bring gang violence, he means that people are being killed on a daily basis by thugs who have no business being here. When he says we need a wall on our southern border, he's not being a racist or a xenophobe, he's being a realist in his mission to secure the safety and well-being of the American people, by keeping these dangerous and harmful influences out. Get the southern border secured and see the patriotism blossom.

The history of government is littered with those who thought the way you do. If you think government is there to take care of you then you really do live in a bubble. Government started as a group of invaders settling among those they were periodically plundering and making their plunder more of a 'legal' regime. Instead of showing up occasionally and helping themselves, they decided to stay and help themselves instead. Thus government was instituted.
