I don't think that guy knows how things work in a free economy. Anyone who denies the left's desire for full blown socialism has their head in the sand.

Well, it’s apparent anybody supporting the left has their head up their ass, so not sure if it’s ALSO in the sand, but I guess anything is possible.

And that, folks, is what we understand the term “reparations” to mean, as used by BLM and its sympathizers: the forced appropriation by undeserving, violent people of property rightfully belonging to others.

I think most people would agree that some of the far left want full blown socialism. The problem is that "the left" (according to many "conservatives") includes moderates etc. so often that people blow off that argument as hyperbole. Just like the right (which includes those same moderates according to the liberals) doesn't pay much attention to "lefties" calling them all racists because it's generally not true - just a segment of the right are racists.

I'd say the amount of racists on the left = the amount of racists on the right.

That may very well be true, but the far left has completely coopted the party and THEIRS is the only message getting out/being parroted by the “mainstream” left....what’s a moderate conservative like me to think?

And I'd be inclined to agree with you.

That's racist.

Why not try something different? Wages stagnant in real terms since 1973 for the world's most productive workforce? If We the People have to continue under wage-slavery they could at least have a hunting season on bankers - couple of weekends per year for firearms and a longer bow season...a little meat in the freezer would help a lot of families :thumb:

Looks like he sprayed mace right before he was shot.

I do not think that spraying mace should justify someone shooting you. It's assault, but I think you should legitimately fear for your life. Similarly to someone throwing a plastic bag at you. That's obviously just my opinion and not saying whether it is justified legally or not.

Yeah...using those guidelines, essentially every single one of the rioters should be lined up and shot.

LOL. FEAR PORN!! SOCIALISM!!

You just admitted you are too ignorant to know what socialism is, and that's NOT what the Democratic Party is advocating.

Unlike the Fascism that the GOP advocates.
