If you would have told me this was coming, I would have worn my waders today. These kind of articles are like faith, the requirement of which is to suspend rational and critical thinking. Life is simple when you ignore the complicated parts

It is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots.
It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same
time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in
our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to
feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent
rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the
language of the unheard.

FITS, your boss—has be wildly quiet about the radical, racial implosion of the Democrat Party…

FITS – like liberals in general – has a habit of believing if he ignores impending disaster for himself- or his politicians- it does not occur.

But America is watching the Democrats…and it’s hideous, what the Democrat Party is.

“But America is watching the Democrats, now…and it’s hideous, what the Democrat Party is. Media cannot cover for this one..”

I’ll save this nugget after the ’16 election and throw back in your face. I would suggest you use word like “I hope, pray, wish, instead of making grand, dogmatic statements.

You’re guaranteeing a Hillary win?

Let me put it this way: The Republicans look as though they’ll need some serious mojo if they want the WH. It’s my opinion they won’t get it, while you seem 100% sure the Democrats are done. And that’s laughable at this juncture…

You’ll get (are getting) BILLIONS in free campaign contributions from the Industrial Media Complex.

But the country is a Disaster area – blaming Bush or the GOP won’t work…and Hillary – and Baltimore and ISIS – are the face of the Democrat Party…

You are a VERY Corrupt and sinister breed, w/ many subversives in high places, aiding you….but if we cannot Eradicate you from Government…this country will end up being one of the 3rd-World Hell-Holes like the ones that worship you…

That said: we went to war versus Democrat Slaveowners, murderous NAZIs…and most recently Jihadists bent on taking over the world, and ruling by religion (not necessarily liberalism, either)….

Cops being shot down in NYC…and Terrorists being met w/ death… in Garland Tx….

The thrill of being an America-hating liberal, as you are, may have run its course…and the Backlash will be vicious, when it manifests….

Be arrogant if you want…but history has not been kind to those like you, once faced, and dealt with…I cannot wait til that retribution comes…LMAO…

Thanks for the laugh and proving my point on the dogma. Love ya man, don’t ever change (as though it were an option). You know it’s a good night when we get ISIS, America-hating Liberals, cop killing, slave owners, Jihadists, of course, NAZIs in one inane rant. If only you could have mentioned Obama, gays, and Benghazi…

Why do you deny your allies…after you so blatantly side w/ them when it matters? Do you think no one sees it?

In her view, each person is subservient to government; government is not the servant of the people. She further rejects the warning of the tyranny of the majority. Under her model, equality in determining the rules, government, gives everyone a “stake” and that is enough to justify the imposition of the will of the majority on everyone.

First of all, this is WILSON’s interpretation of Allen’s thesis, not direct quotes from her.

Second, perhaps her intent, and only she can say if it is or not, is that government IS the servant of the people, but not ALL of the people. The government is after all made of people, not robots. It is always going to serve at SOMEONE’s pleasure, be it a dictator, a powerful governing class, or (ideally) everyone under it’s authority.

Where the government is perceived (whether true or not) to only provide for those with power, at the expense of everyone else, civil unrest is always going to be more likely. The French Revolution is one example. The American Revolution is another.

The Republican Party’s candidates just got more diverse today. Welcome to Carly Fiorina and Ben Carson.

Latest snooze: G’ment workers make up 20+% of Baltimore total employed. (Drudge today)

Speaking of family responsibilities for the kids joining in on the destructive riots, there are plenty of videos … Maybe those g’ment employed families should be “taxed” to pay for some of the cleanup.

Wait…didn’t the Pauls side with those who demanded government be the answer when it came to Ferguson and Baltimore? But they were so opposed to the “militarization” of the police even while Rand Paul paled around with Al Sharpton who is calling for the nationalization of the police forces across the country…answer that Paulbots…
