Racism, gun control, gay issues, For those who keep their power by dividing the country it is all about attacking the symbols, real or perceived. A mentally ill person who also was a racist who obviously was not terribly fond of Christians either included a flag in his madness, and now the cure is to remove the flag? Really?
Symbolism over Substance = Folly

Half off topic but half on also.
Divide and conquer.
They have pretty much convinced the middle class that the poor are to blame for the condition the country is in so there are two more that are not going to work together. Divide, divide, divide and they are doing a pretty good job of it. This has nothing to do with democrat or republican, they do not care which side of that fence you are on either as long as the nose to nose yelling keeps going on. Divide, divide, divide.
Hopefully the gun owners will stick together no matter what and not start shooting each other over other differences. If we are defenseless we are doomed. Jim

It has been a while since I was living in Texas so I am not positive of the name but I think it is "Daughters of the Confederacy". A large and popular group that have kept the history of the Confederacy alive and well. I met a couple of the ladies and they were a hoot. Jim

IF the shooting starts, the gun owners won't be shooting each other. Why do you think that the libs and a tyrannical government want to take them away from us?

My bad: I hear a bunch of Americans are moving to Canada because they are worried that gay marriage will become mandatory or some other dumb crap like that Billy, Billy, Billy you must be the absolute best on the planet at throwing "gay marriage", "US history", "or anything" and "oil" into the same pot and stirring it up. You must be one of those "tolerant" Christians too. How long did it take you to do that poll on how many gays support foreign oil or did you get that off of Fox News? Maybe you just threw them in with the "greenies" because you do not like them either? Does this mean that all gays are greenies or all greenies are gay? Hard to keep up with all the accusations. Plus, how did you end up being one of the perfect ones that is always right and never does anything wrong. Oh damn, wait, does Bob know that you were married to a "cough cough" black woman like I was? People like him are not too tolerant of that kind of thing ya know. As you know I do salute you for taking care of the kids though. I had a tooth pulled yesterday and ya'll don't care and ya'll keep bothering me for no good reason. Jim Billy, Billy, Billy you must be the absolute best on the planet at throwing "gay marriage", "US history", "or anything" and "oil" into the same pot and stirring it up.Thank you, I take great pride in it. You must be one of those "tolerant" Christians too. How long did it take you to do that poll on how many gays support foreign oil or did you get that off of Fox News?I am a non practicing Roman Catholic. Yes I am a very tolerant person, until people force issues that are not relevant to all or force shit on me that I don't believe in. And want to take my rights away. I see the greenie gay thing everyday on FB, I have a gay niece and possibly a nephew. And I see what their friends post. Plus, how did you end up being one of the perfect ones that is always right and never does anything wrong. Oh damn, wait, does Bob know that you were married to a "cough cough" black woman like I was? People like him are not too tolerant of that kind of thing ya know. .I am far from perfect, I have common sense. Not sure if Bob knows I was married to a Jamaican and have two daughters. Does it matter? I don't really care if he likes it or not. I happen to agree with him on this suject. As you know I do salute you for taking care of the kids thoughThank you, that means a lot to me. Can't end without a meme!

Jim this is a picture that one of my nieces friends on FB posted. And here is the real story. Mona Lake - Thousands of fish are floating to the surface in lakes around West Michigan. The dead fish are creating a smelly mess for homeowners and visitors at Lake Macatawa, Spring Lake, and Mona Lake. You can't miss the dead fish lining the shores of Mona Lake. Biologists from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources say the fish, mostly gizzard shad, are dying because of the weather, not any kind of chemical or illness. archive.wzzm13.com/news/story.aspx?storyid=90175Answer this for me Jim. Would you trust someone who lies to you? I am very tolerant until they pull bullshit like this. And we are to beleive it when they say climate change is real?

It may be (delightfully) sexist, but I am SO stealing that "I have no idea" meme!
Oh, and for the record, I couldn't care in the slightest whom one marries AS LONG AS he/she is a member of the opposite sex. God didn't have much to say about interracial marriage, it was only brought up in the context meaning interfaith marriages. In fact, the biblical perspective is that there is only one “race”, and that would be the human race.
The whole homo thing didn't go over so well though.
carry on

Ok,as of yesterday-NBC and other networks are removing the reruns of "The Dukes of Hazzard"-Why,because of the Confederate flag on their car!!! How stupid does our government have to get before the whole world laughs their asses off,about the United States!!! Looks like the old star trek shows should be on the air next. www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2015/07/03/hate-wins-takei-doubles-down-clarence-thomas-a-black-buffoon/Television actor and professional victim George Takei doubled down Friday on his racist comments attacking Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. In a local television interview after the Supreme Court’s 5-4 decision legalizing same sex marriage in all 50 states, Takei referred to the black Justice (who was one of the 4) as a “clown in blackface.” In a follow-up Facebook post Friday, Takei said “that is not racist,” that he instead meant that Thomas is a “black buffoon” and a traitor to his race: I wonder how pissed the progressives are about now? Time to pull the stars and strips off the Enterprise.

A couple of ignorant or whatever (humans I guess) on f...book does not represent the tiniest percent of the whole. If two aliens jump you in an alley and take your human ID does that make all aliens bad? I think not. A few aliens may be bad but as a whole I think they are good uh, aliens.
As a matter of fact I hate it when I am lied to. But, I do not accuse anyone of lying to me if I can not be positive they are lying. Climate change is one of those things I am not positive about. People say that there is no way humans could make that big of a contribution to speeding up the natural cycle of things but humans have just about depleted or destroyed 2/3rds of the planets surface of fish. How big is 2/3rds of the planet surface? Beyond apprehension for most of us and we have not been working at it on a massive scale for very long.
Where are we headed? I do not have a clue but I know for a fact that not all is well on this planet. What can I do about it? Pretty much diddly but if every human being on the planet did diddly it would be a lot of diddly. Not going to happen.
Something like 800 million human beings that do not have sufficient food and water and that number is growing pretty fast. Children in this country (supposedly the richest country) going hungry. Tax the hell out of cigarettes to make people quit. People can not quit so it makes more poor kids go hungrier.
Too many problems and too many greedy, power hungry people that wouldn't bend down to pick up a hundred dollar bill but at the same time would not give a kid a couple of dollars to buy food. Not their problem.
Bob is right about the sh.. hitting the fan and about all I can do is hope to get my family protected before it happens which may be impossible no matter how much time and money I have.
Quote: The whole homo thing didn't go over so well though.
There are a bunch of things on this planet that are icky to you and me but okay for other human beings like eating bugs and other nasty stuff that I would not eat unless I was starved nearly to death. Doesn't make it wrong, just different. If your religion says don't do it then don't do it but let others live their lives the way they want just like you living the way you want. Jim

Actors are not intelligent because of their profession and my guess is that most of them are not intelligent at all. No different than somebody standing on a soapbox on a street corner. We would probably be better off if we just banned TVs. Word of mouth passed down the street would probably be just about as reliable and a lot less BS. Jim

Where is the logic that if you can't feed two kids but they keep popping out more? Children go hungry in your country because there is few jobs for their parents or the dad is a deadbeat sperm donor. But your prez wants to bring in millions more low educated illegals! To take these jobs. And support the local citizens for years while non citizens take the jobs. If your religion says don't do it then don't do it but let others live their lives the way they want just like you living the way you want.
But if the gays want a cake or be married in a christian church. What choice do they have, but to bow down or face a lawsuit. So much for trying to live the way they want. One never makes friend forcing their way on to others.

No system is perfect and democracy is starting to break down pretty fast. Freedom of religion, freedom to assemble and a few others are coming apart at the seams.
Freedom of religion as long as it is Christian seems to be a problem. Christians have been pushing their religion all over the world for a long time. I get scorned because I don't believe in any of them even though I do not push it on anyone.
Freedom to assemble as long as it is not a union. Gangsters ruined that one out of greed for themselves, not for their members. Now it is black or white and this is another way of separating the hordes. If we loose this one three people on a street corner talking about a recipe can be locked up.
And the list goes on and on. Add intolerance to greed and a few other things and democracy is going into the crapper right where an upper a lower few want it.
I do not have the answers but a little tolerance would go a long way here. Hate is a huge waste of energy and it is another division that is splitting this country. Make the damn cake or find a different efin baker. Who is right? NOBODY. Who is wrong? EVERYBODY.
Everybody wants everything their way with zero tolerance for anything. What is the antonym for democracy? ISIS comes to mind. We are dooming ourselves.
Divide and conquer. We are living THEIR dream and it is going to turn into our nightmare. Jim
