POLITICAL THREAD

[Phil_The_Music]

In case you haven't noticed, some 20% of people here speak Spanish over English. A country can have more than one language & the USA has no official language such that you can speak whatever be a part of the culture.

It's fine if you want to speak Spanish. But you need to know basic English as well. It's as much for those that immigrate here as it is for anyone else. I've had two careers where I've seen the direct affects of people who can't speak English. I was in law enforcement for 5 years. I dealt with people many times as a cop who couldn't speak English. It's extremely dangerous for both them and the police officer when they can't understand one another on a basic level. My second career has been in IT. I now work for a large school district and I see everyday the struggle that teachers have dealing with students who can't speak English. All of their time is spent attempting to communicate the most basic concepts and they have little time to actually teach. Not sure what you have done in your life, but anyone with real world life experience understands that communication amongst people is the most important thing for a society. It sounds all warm and fuzzy to say, "Oh yes we let people speak whatever language they choose because we are so wonderful." In practice it's a BS philosophy and does no one any good. Again, people can speak to each in any language they choose, but if you want to live here as a permanent resident, knowing English should absolutely be a requirement. And it should be our national language. The fact that it isn't is a huge problem.

Oh shut up. Nobody cares about your little pet causes. You're a liar and a fraud. Pennywise and pound foolish. You strain at a gnat, while swallowing a camel.

Did the sign just assume someone's gender?

On a serious note, we absolutely went through the most batsh1t insane section of human history. Evil-doers and their social media brainwashing machines pushed everyone to madness.

I've been trying to find the answer to how much spending was reduced by cutting the year-end spending package from 1500+ pages to 118 pages. Many here where giddy over that change. Surely it saved money. Why else were they giddy? Anyone?

Today I learned from Chip Roy thru the WSJ that the 118 pages of spending was the same as the original 1500+ pages of spending that Musk & Vivek were up in arms over. Apparently that's quite the victory for MAGA. For Congressman Roy & me, not so much. At least it saves some paper.

Suck on that, 5000.

 

[warrior-cat]

There is no speak American as there is no national language.

Show me where most primarily non-English speakers are illegal. As is, it's an opinion.

Show me where 20% of Americans prefer to speak spanish when only 19% are hispanic or as the charts say other. That could include many other ethnicities.

By the way, unofficially there is an American language as I speak it and so do most intelligent Americans.

I don't disagree. But that's not the way our country exists today.

There has to be more to this story than they’re telling. Just throwing a match on someone wouldn’t have burned her like that. He had to of thrown an accelerant on her. Burn him!

One big difference between our side and theirs, if a white guy set anyone on fire...regardless of race, we would say the same thing about him as we do the illegal...execute him. The other side's outrage and want for vengeance is always based on race and narrative.


"But… it was an illegal who did it. It goes against their narrative. So they’ve been eerily silent. Or in AOC’s case, doing gold medal mental gymnastics to try to blame it on Daniel Penny.

Liberalism is full on lunacy."

 

[warrior-cat]

There are many cultures here. One is most dominant. That doesn't mean if you're part of/identify with a smaller one that you're not assimilated. We wouldn't have media in multiple languages if those languages weren't part of the overall culture.

False. We have media in other languages because of left wing and some supposed 'independents" agenda of changing our culture. There should be no need for it, speak American or get out.

Well, since most Americans speak English by far, it makes sense that most intelligent ones do.

False as usual.

 

[TheFrontRunner]

Not sure if the part about the police just walking by has been posted. The bottom video of the policeman just walking by is pathetic. And sadly ironic, that the governor posted the below post just hours before a woman was set on fire in the subway.


"NYPD casually walk by and stand around as this poor woman is burned alive, while the criminal illegal immigrant sits and watches, and then fan the flames!"

 

[vhcat70]

Throw people out because they don't speak American? That's ridiculous. What percentage of people who've ever immigrated to this country spoke English when the did? Outside those from British Isles, I'd say very few did. Of course we forcibly assimilated slaves. And many countries have multiple languages.

 

[vhcat70]

False as usual.

With zero data to back your comment up. At least I sourced my writing.

It should be. That's my point.

 

[Bigmikeydelight]

Anecdotal? Nope. Needs to be filed under “Fabricated BS”

Not a single roofing contractor in the Lexington area (or anywhere else for that matter) is going to openly admit to a random potential customer over the phone that they are employing/have employed illegal immigrants from “Guatemala and Honduras”. Yet you claim that the first FIVE that you called did just that. I call BS. That was nothing more than a very lame attempt to push the Left’s “who will do the work” anti-deportation agenda.

You’re a “trust the science” guy. So let’s give it the good ol’ scientific litmus test…

Post a list of the 5 roofing contractors that you called, komrade. Be happy to eat crow if I’m wrong.

Start with these two. 100% certain about them. Unsure which ones said they weren’t in the roofing business anymore or didn’t answer after that.

American English not english english.

 

[augustaky1]

False as usual.

I guess there were 1400 pages of "Intentionally Left Blank" statements? lol

Even if it was not a reduction in money, many "extras/fine print" had to be removed from those pages.

Over a beer one night, a seasoned lawyer gave a young and dumb Sailor great advice.

"Son, the fine print is not there for your benefit."

These are the same types of batshit crazy women who write to serial killers and marry them in prison.

Yet there are people also watching this happen as they film it with their phones. Horrible people just to stand by and watch.

Kick them out if they do not want to assimilate? Yes.

With MAGA (TDS) agenda laden comments so...it does not take much to figure you, nor your sources be really honest about it.

Given how fat and ugly both of them are, I am guessing they are blaming their white dads for bringing them into the world fat and ugly. Unless their fathers were dead beat dad's these two are scum. Although, it is possible they both ate their fathers.

I’m shocked I tell you, SHOCKED, that vhcat thinks it was a waste of time to cut out 1400 pages of waste, government censorship, and other bullshit McConnell negotiated behind closed doors with no input from the elected representative of the American people. Shocked.

 

[TheFrontRunner]

1) This is typical of liberal thinking, an abortion even if the woman is 9 months pregnant is never to them an 'actual' person. Their sympathies lie with child molesters, rapists, and murderers.

2) The woman who posted this is the lawyer for Luigi Mangione, the man who murdered the health insurance CEO. New York doesn't have the death penalty, so she isn't trying to save him from that. I'm assuming she supports what he did. She "previously served as New York’s Chief Assistant District Attorney"

I rest my case.

Straw man, nobody said that.

Your original premise is flawed and proven false by EB, your arguments are weak, your comebacks are angry flails.

Ah, so it goes from FIVE down to TWO.

Nice backtracking after getting called out for your lies.

Rand Paul talking about the power he will soon have and he isn't playing around. It has always been great how much he hates Fauci.

I won't get my hopes up that Fauci goes to jail, but Rand seems determined to make him pay a price for what he did.

Speaking of Rand, he just posted some great thinks about RFK Jr....but then he gave 'Bobby' a warning haha

Here are some of the 37 pardons that pos Biden just handed out. Nidal Hasan, Fort Hood, looks to be pardoned as well. The only people not pardoned were Roof, the church shooter in SC, the Boston Bomber, and the Synagogue shooter.

You can thank Kim Kardashian and Co. for this gift to the country.


Thomas Sanders: Convicted for the horrific murder of 12-year-old Lexis Roberts, whom he shot four times and slit her throat, after killing her mother.

Jorge Avila-Torrez: Killed two young girls, Laura Hobbs (8) and Krystal Tobias (9), and later strangled Amanda Snell (20), a naval officer, in her barracks.

Kaboni Savage: A drug kingpin convicted of orchestrating the murder of six people, including four children, in a firebombing attack aimed at silencing a witness. The deliberate targeting of children and the use of arson to kill increase the severity of his crimes.

Iouri Mikhel: Involved in the kidnapping and subsequent murder of five immigrants despite receiving ransom payments.

Anthony Battle: While serving a life sentence for the rape and murder of his Marine wife, he murdered a prison guard with a hammer.

Lezmond Mitchell:Convicted for the brutal murder of a 63-year-old grandmother and her nine-year-old granddaughter in 2001. He forced the child to watch her grandmother's murder before killing her as well, with extreme cruelty, including mutilation.

Wesley Ira Purkey: Convicted of the violent rape, murder, and dismemberment of a 16-year-old girl, and the murder of an elderly woman.

Dustin Lee Honken: Murdered five people, including two men who were to testify against him and a mother with her two young daughters, to prevent them from testifying.

Daniel Lewis Lee: Part of a white supremacist group, he was convicted of murdering a family of three, including an eight-year-old girl. The method of execution (suffocation with plastic bags and duct tape, followed by disposal in water) adds to the cruelty of the act.

Alfred Bourgeois: Convicted of physically abusing, sexually molesting, and then beating to death his two-and-a-half-year-old daughter.

Thomas Silverstein: Known as "Terrible Tom," he was convicted of multiple murders, including the killing of a correctional officer in 1983. His history of violence while incarcerated, including the murder of inmates and guards, marks him as one of the most dangerous inmates.

Ronell Wilson: Convicted for the execution-style murders of two undercover NYPD detectives during a drug sting operation in 2003.

Richard Matthew Allen: Convicted of the 2017 murders of two teenage girls in Delphi, Indiana, in a crime that shocked the state.

Makes me ill , democrats are evil
