Wing nuts like to live out in the boonies cheating on their taxes and when the forest catches on fire and their home is in the path of the fire they yell for some one to send a hellicopter to drop water on their house. Of course they dont want to pay for it they want the tax payers to pay for it. The tax payers live in the cities and know the value of good government and view taxes as the price we pay to live in a civilized society

Good Government? where in the hell do you live - Mars - there is no such thing as good Government today.

Thank you bitter, hateful, old hippy.

I didn't used to be this way but the modern conservative movement began turning the world upside down
in the 1970's and killed the new deal coalition and began peeling away the new deal like an onion layer by layer and it led to extreme polarization of American society and I'll admit im bitter at the loss 40 years of progress from 1933 to 1973 was wiped out in 20 years

Yeah, I would probably feel the same if I was interested in telling everyone how to live, speak, and think.
But I'm not. I don't care how you live, speak, or think as long as you leave me alone.

If your state wants a turd, and syringe on every sidewalk, that's your business. Just don't impose it on my state.

I know......that's hard for you to fathom....

I meant to ask, this was taken in San Francisco. Is it a turd or a syringe?

It's a common citizen living in leftist utopia.

A flexible one too!

No we would like t live in peace with out knuckle draggers up our asses. Conservatives have never contributed to the progress of society all thay are good for is to stand in the road shouting STOP and that it end of history

Utter horse hockey. You leftists would be at each others throats before you know it. Ultimately, the ones paying the way for those who don't produce will finally say screw it.

It's never worked nor will it ever.

That's how my kids grew up, and they don't think anyone owes them a damn thing. Even when they were out of the nest, and getting their feet under them, what little help we gave them was accepted reluctantly. Now, they are the helpers of others.

Mine, too. That’s what happens when parents actually have a hand in teaching.

Trouble is, Archie, that crosses the state line and eventually ends up on your sidewalk.
