Speaking of that, have there been any Freeper reactions to the Oath Keepers militia movement (the Ted Bundy ranch guys) splitting in half over race issues recently? An Oath Keepers chapter in Missouri put out a statement to the effect that the Second Amendment applies to people of all races and started coordinating a black open carry march with the local Black Lives Matter protesters and the Huey Newton Club. The Oath Keepers board of directors didn't like that one bit and strongly condemned the action, which has led the Missouri chapter, along with a good dozen other chapters and hundreds of individual members, to split off and form a new organization, citing a lengthy and ongoing pattern of racism among the organization's leadership.

I mean, this isn't the first time a right-wing militia group has fragmented, but this is the first time one has fragmented because a big chunk of the organization suddenly said "holy crap, this group is really racist!"

So the anti-BLM people teamed up with the BLM people and part of the anti-BLM people didn't like it so the part of the anti-BLM people that teamed up with the BLM started their own anti-BLM group with members of the BLM? Cool.

Depends on the nature of the coup. Fascist coups often have the police departments on their side. Communist coups often have the police departments opposing them. Centrist coups against fascist/communist governments generally have the police departments on whichever side is further right. I think that might generally be due to the whole law and order appeal that the far-right makes a huge deal about. (As long as it's their law and their order.)

The attempted Fascist coup of Spain in 1936 (carried out by the nation's military leadership with the support of nearly the entire professional army) was opposed by about half of the country's police departments (particularly the Assault Guard, the nation's riot police/SWAT team equivalents, who sided almost entirely with the left-wing government against the fascists). They fought in alliance with anarchists, of all people - the coup was expected to succeed in a day, but the initial coup was defeated because the anarchists and communists declared a general strike and turned out en masse to fight alongside the loving police on the barricades. The political dynamics in 1930s Spain were really really weird.

For that matter, the police in 1930s Spain were really weird. The Assault Guard (riot police) squads in most major cities were made up mostly of young militant socialists and other left-wing radicals, as a result of an organized infiltration campaign by leftist groups. The left was sick of getting beaten by the cops, so when new, special anti-riot/tactical squads were established in 1931, thousands of left-wingers went and signed up for them, hoping to neutralize the new police agency by simply taking it over.

Just another day in Obama's America? I wonder, then, how they'd react to the fact this had already happened before only the small town was populated by blacks and the angry mob was white. Would their minds be able to reconcile the fact that things like this happened all the time to blacks without a single instance the other way around?

Maybe not with leftist, but it is an option for reducing the descrimination towards African Americans and other minorities. This is entirely empirical, but there are a lot of black NCOs in the Army. The great majority of my First Sergeants and Sergeant's Major were black.

Edit: I didn't finish my thought. If it can be done in the Army, it can likely be dine with the police, at least in major cities.

The Tulsa race riot is depressingly easy for racists to justify because the black community tried to defend itself and killed a few dozen white rioters, so massacring hundreds of black civilians and burning down the entire district is just seen as fair retaliation by the upstanding white community members against a den of raging urban ferals. It's sort of like how I've had right-wingers argue the US Army was justified in their use of lethal chemical weapons on striking miners in West Virginia in the same year, because when the army tried to kill them with more conventional weapons they defended themselves.

But once again rather than address the ideas he has put forth and take them seriously FReepers will merely demean the man and savage him ..tell us what a girly man he is and how macho they are. Throwing everyone under the bus that utters any critique of the great Trump.

But just suppose the girly man is right and Trump is wrong? I assume Graham has advisers...maybe those advisers know more than whoever the Donald listens to

Or maybe the voices in Trumps brain are his advisers ...... that is how he comes across.He says whatever sounds good at the moment.

Surely it has to be at least 50/50 that Lindsay Graham is right and Trump is wrong or that the hated Graham has a point that might be worth considering....but it will never be seriously debated here, as FR is incapable of serious debate anymore

But FR sure excels at castigating anyone who questions the brilliant tactician Donald Trump.

Im waiting for Dick Cheney to say a bad word about Trump...(which is not hard for me to imagine). Cheney will be called a RINO and God knows what else. Does anyone see a pattern here?

You are missing the point, there are two sets of facts, or two realities, or parallel realities, or alternative realities.

Who is eligible to occupy what office is determined by which set of facts one uses or subscribes to.

Like wise, how the refugee resettlement policies work depend on which set of facts you use.

Gov Haley uses a set of facts that are easily found, that involve congress, the prez, the federal agencies, the voluntary agencies(NGOs), the criteria used, etc. For example: religion is not used as criteria in refugee resettlement.

OTOH, there is a second set of facts surrounding refugees which is used by most freepers, World Net Daily, Sen Jeff Sessions, etc. These are the facts that come from Ann Corcoran and Resettlement Watch. For example: Obama wants to allow only Muslim refugees.

Incidentally, were your interpretation endorsed by the USSC or enacted by Amendment, such would be welcome ... but it not now law.

Hope we can make them go on believing that.

Our governor already jumped the shark when she called for the Confederate flag to come down. Now this.

"There's a mosque where the Muslims...ACT LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE GOING TO A HOUSE OF WORSHIP!!! It's clearly because they're afraid of me and my big Christian penis, you're welcome, America.

Your pastiche of inferences is neither law nor incontrovertible language and, by the way, I did not suggest you look up her lineage. Quite simply, the term natural born citizen is not settled law in the US, but absent a Supreme Court ruling or Constitutional Amendment, the closest to a settled meaning is the Act of 1798 - far more than your fervent but ill-informed postings. Incidentally, were your interpretation endorsed by the USSC or enacted by Amendment, such would be welcome ... but it not now law.

Birthright citizenship is so settled that it's goddamn bedrock. Even that clown Alito wouldn't rule against it.

Maybe not with leftist, but it is an option for reducing the descrimination towards African Americans and other minorities. This is entirely empirical, but there are a lot of black NCOs in the Army. The great majority of my First Sergeants and Sergeant's Major were black.

Edit: I didn't finish my thought. If it can be done in the Army, it can likely be dine with the police, at least in major cities.

The Army's relatively broad recruitment is what made this work so well in the military. No education past a GED, no job skills, nothing going for you? Doesn't matter, you could probably still enlist and get fed and housed and paid and trained. It's a pretty awesome force for upward social mobility and one of the best ways for people to get out of the shithole they grew up in.

The police are a much more competitive hiring environment with much stricter requirements. Completely different environment.

Duh. Muslims don't have 2nd Amendment rights, according to Freep.

This whole clinton email scandal has been amusing becuase of all the republicans spouting off about how risky and dangerous it is to have a private server in your home, and how only the government can be trusted with data and keeping it safe. And how it was IN A BATHROOM CLOSET! (Close to where people poop, which makes it less secure and more of an outrage)

I've had this discussion with countless people both online and in meat space. It's absolutely infuriating.

Are they the same god? They both evolved from the god of the Israelites, but Trinitarianism and literally being a flesh and blood dude for a while would be pretty heretical in Islam, where it is considered a form of polytheism.

I get that they're the same word, that some Levantine Christians talk of Allah and some English Muslims of God, but I'm not sure that they can be considered the same thing.
