A bunch of white guys with guns showed up outside a Texas mosque, too. The mosque was the subject of rumors that they set up a Sharia law court and threatened to kill the mayor when they shut it down, none of it being true but that didn't stop the protesters. They said they had guns to "protect themselves" but police cars outnumbered the protesters. http://thescoopblog.dallasnews.com/2015/11/armed-protesters-set-up-outside-islamic-center-of-irving.html/

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/22/u...&smtyp=cur&_r=0 so apparently trump said he saw thousands of people cheering in jersey when 9/11 happened. quote:“Hey, I watched when the World Trade Center came tumbling down. And I watched in Jersey City, New Jersey, where thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down. Thousands of people were cheering. So something’s going on. We’ve got to find out what it is.”

You know, I'll bet if you gave some Trump rally attendees some sleek "tactical" black vests, walkie-talkies and batons, called them the "voluntary militia for campaign security," and told them to keep BLM and other protesters away from the venue, they wouldn't get the reference and would be more than glad to do it.

evilweasel posted:Well, a healthy distrust can only contribute to keeping her on the straight and narrow once elected. But I think it's very important to draw a distinction between distrust of the person, and the policies themselves being bad. Experience generally shows the best way to push a candidate in a direction in a way that will stick after the election is to get them to take specific positions on specific issues. "I'll break up the big banks....if it's necessary(and I'll never think it's necessary" is just a line of disposable rhetoric that translate into human as "I just want to stop getting asked this question". It's less about trust or distrust and more about getting them to add concrete planks to their platform.

It's less about trust or distrust and more about getting them to add concrete planks to their platform. You mean, like a graduated risk fee based on institutional size (i.e. reinternalization of the external risk posed by large entities), a high frequency trading tax, additional authority for US regulators to reorganize or break up banks, providing authority to regulators to regulate shadow banking activities, reinstating the rule that requires banks to push derivatives transactions to non-banking affiliates, extend the statute of limitation on securities fraud, and legislatively reverse case law making insider trading hard to prosecute? Those kind of concrete plans in the candidates platform? (Use loving Google if you're too dumb to know how to get to a paywalled article.)

I am actually surprised they have 18-59 as a group, like, that's real interesting. I mean, obv they didn't make it for our political arguments, but holy poo poo that's 0-4 (4) 5-11(7) 12-17 (5) 18-59 (41) 60 + (Ah, gently caress it.) Like, did the 35+ demo get left behind to die or some poo poo? Were nations only taking twenty-somethings, or did they have to bundle them in with the professionals? This is mildly interesting and worthy of comment! Is there any more detailed breakdown of the 18-59 group for the purposes of political arguments or is that information not available to us?
