Yeah, moderators, lol. They're more interested in selling cheap watches and allowing spam posts.

Next time: Read.

Don't throw rocks when you're in a glass house.
In today's age of voice to text, and predictive text, you should give much more allowance for minor spelling errors.

Hey Blackcloud, welcome to the Rump thread. I hope you are updated on your Rabies shots! LOL If they get too close, throw a MAGA Dunce cap across the room to distract them.

Just joking, it's actually a group of decent people. I just have a problem when someone calls an entire population they know nothing about "Scum." We've seen this kind of thing before and we know what happens when no one speaks up.

Agreed. Thanks. There are some real morons and trolls like Starter986 that I can’t be bothered with. I’m out of this discussion. There is no point to it. Internet”warriors” can get get their rocks off with somebody else. They just go fishing. Sad people really.

You can be bothered, as evidenced by your sophmoric comments. Let me guess: You're a twenty-something soy-boy still living with your parents. working in a coffee shop to afford the car repairs for which you're incapable of performing. A poser. Be sure to let us know when you have to sell your car because you can't do your own oil change. :ah:

A troll is someone who makes a comment to get a rise out of others. I believe in what I say, and could give less than two ****************s what you think about me (it's none of my business). You're the troll, and I'm not biting. :dance:

Fishing? Sad? Warrior? You're such a pussy you're afraid to stand behind a belief system. So... go ahead... reveal your position, or GTFO. :chicken:

From a distant foreign observer . . .

and pass the popcorn.

Okay not so distant, I live 60 miles from the U.S. border and get inundated with news from the lower 48. We get a big picture view up here since we can observe from a relatively safe distance. It is surprising how polarized society down there has become. It used to be 'America United' against the world. Now it appears to be America against itself as well as the world.

Only one winner in this battle and it is Mr Putin. Whatever the Russians are doing to disrupt things is working as evidenced right here. Regardless of your politics something has to be done. At least your President should stop cozying up to the most dangerous man in the world.

I'll shut up about the U.S. now. We have our own petty problems in the Great White North with a federal election this fall and the choices are all bad. Our Mr Trudeau was handed a blank slate 4 years ago with a huge majority and has done nothing but legalize marijuana. Zilch. Nada. Nothing else. The other two major parties have a moron and a racist heading them up. It is a sad state of affairs when the best choice is the party that did nothing over 4 years with an overwhelming majority.

So we have our problems too. But at least the rest of the world thinks we are nice.

Greetings, Paul.

So you think you have problems up there, eh?

Sadly it seems that Nationalism, AKA Fascism, is spreading like a cancer around the world. And unfortunately we have a president who is a doormat to the world's strongmen. I'm very concerned about the direction we're headed, not just here but also around the world.

Actually, by replying, you DID bite!

Blackcloud now is out of this thread. He decided not to get into the gutter with us, and good for him.

Regarding his original post and what topic is permitted: He may have been wrong about that, but you're actually violating the forum rules.

1: No Flaming.

6: No profanity.

We can have heated disagreements without being hostile.

Rabies. MAGA dunce cap. That is funny, and brought a smile to my face. Seriously. Some good natured ribbing.

I'll backtrack on the scum comment, but just a bit. I'm talking about illegal alien scum. You know, some ****************er who doesn't give two ****************s of complying with the immigration laws of the United States. Yes, them. Scum, and scourge. Your veiled reference that that comment-type being associated with something more sinister? Wrong. I'm not completely apathetic. Just a bit.

Cheers!

Thanks! I like a good-natured ribbing too!

So, to help me understand your position better, are ALL lawbreakers scum to you?
