This is the political thread. There are threads for each specific sport we care about so... No one ignores the voter ID if you agree we should have it, issue closed. We just simply move on to other issues.
When i read the comments in tweets like this it makes me realize just how divided americans are.
You can go through churches how many St whatever hospitals and charitable orgs are there?
You could also go through hundreds, if not thousands, of private organizations that are available.
You could donate to ppl directly too. Heres the thing, doing the latter would be better for all, bc it gives the giver reasons to be grateful and ties the donation directly, which makes the receiver also more grateful, and less "entitled". It also allows the giver to stop if it isnt working. I am clearly only scratching the surface of the benefits. It would take hrs to write them all. Dont be so myopic.
Edit. In fairness, i did say "primarily". I know what i was thinking and trying to be succinct, didnt articulate well. Also, looking at the time of the post, probably shouldve just gone to sleep lol.

Main reason why I am not concerned about Social Security and Medicare not being available when my generation needs it. No politician has the spine to take away those entitlements. What I am concerned about is how they pay for it because at the rate we are going it’s going to be high taxes and they will find a way to raid retirement accounts to get more money.
Comment from that twitter thread is the obvious reality.
I was down on the mall and legitimate rally attendees attempting to peacefully assemble were in shock that it happened. I remarked how surreal it was—reminded me of watching a movie being filmed. It was staged.
There were agent provocateurs and then there were complete idiots that got riled up in the moment. No one asks the real question, why was it allowed to happen?

You would think that World War II would have taught some people a few lessons. Thirst for power is a very dangerous thing that can turn some leaders evil. I never would have thought France would go the route of Nazi Germany. Nor would I have ever thought the US would ever consider those tactics either, but here we are.
Just gonna say this again.. @Duke Blu was in the DOJ headquarters on Jan. 6. He posted a picture he claimed he took that could not have been taken from anywhere else.
What you say may well be true but is in no way useful when attempting a communist takeover. So I guess that makes you guilty of being a disinformation violator. That of course designates you as a fascist terrorist as well.
After their done, we will be left with BB and Airsoft guns to defend ourselves with.
You're missing the big picture as usual. The media ONLY does this so they can politicize it. But they ignore the thousands killed every month because they can't advance the cause du jour.
Maybe you should shove it up your candy ass. Nobody here believes you want to have a meaningful discussion.
I did not ignore the voter ID conversation, I provided my counter arguments then abandoned the conversation when it went off on that tangent. Yes you are a known leftist, therefore you should fully expect that people on the right will want to debate your opinions when you present them, just as you debate our opinions with your posts. That's the purpose of this forum.
You can thank the Democrats for that, they wanted the entire country shut down for over a year so the only biz left standing is Big Box.
Did Biden just confirm they suck the blood out of kids?
There are a whole lot of very good and strong charities that do great work and help a lot of people. More money, food, housing, transportation, etc. could get into the hands through private charities if allowed to operate without too much Government intervention. I do agree there has to be a limited amount of oversight to weed out and prevent the scammers and thiefs operating bunk charities and lining their pockets. But forcing taxpayers to send a substantial chunk of their hard earned dollars to the government to be filtered through 50 layers of bureaucracy before pennies on the dollar are actually spent on government programs to provide money to able bodied people who choose not to work.
Best place to hide the truth is in plain sight.
Maybe abortion can be back in the states hands where it belongs. This was worth my 2016 vote.

I'll state that in my previous post about charities, I don't think they need to be filtered through a church. there are many good ones that aren't. The WHAS crusade for children that happens every year is a great example. I don't think Habitat for Humanity is run by a church. Both great charities I have donated and given my time to. A lot of churches operate things like Soup kitchens or lunch lines, providing food. Something tangible and helpful that the truly needy gravitate to for sustenance where they are not given free money to go out and spend on booze, drugs and cigarettes. I've worked in Soup Kitchens, I've helped build a couple of Habitat for Humanity homes, I've donated quite a bit to the Crusade for Children.
I'd just like you to answer these simple questions. Do you think the Government knows what's better for the citizens more than the citizens do themselves? Do you think the Democrats truly have the peoples best interest at heart or do they want power? Do you think Government controlling every aspect of our lives is better than people being free to choose their own way?
Well Cowboy, I hope your singing a sad song after this weekend. Though I feel like it will be me doing the singing after the debacles the Reds have been since the break.
Anywho. I'm gonna gloat if things go well, but if they don't, here's your preemptive SHADDUP!!!
Joe Biden, considered one of the "poorer" politicians, has an estimated net worth of about $9M. Yet he, like most politicians, always refer to the wealthy as "them", never themselves.
Cards just won 3 out of 4 against the Cubs, normally that would be great, but with the way this season is going we managed to f-ck it up...the one game we lost, we gave up 6 runs in the ninth to lose 7-6. Cubs only had 6 hits, but scored 7 runs. You aren't suppose to lose that game.
But reds vs cards this weekend...get ready. Paul Goldschmidt has started hitting...I think we about to b-tch slap you communist reds.
They can't help themselves but politicise it, for profit and power, and it's disgusting.
Posted this in 'rona thread, which that complete idiot nightwish "laughed" at like that means anything other than showing everyone not infected with their idiocy just how gullible leftists are.

@Fact_Checker See right there. Common Sense defined for you.
Lebronna will be the biggest crying b-tch in that league too...

I find it interesting that for months, it was really just the Buffalo Bills' Cole Beasley who was publicly against the vaccine. And he was blasted for it, almost on the verge of costing his career if you ask me.
Then, when the NFL comes out yesterday saying you're going to be forced to vax... you got already a dozen players, white and black, who are against it, backing up that stats that there's still 20% of NFL players who don't have the vaccine.
The NFL stepping in it, big time.
