People thinking trump has this clinched forget what the polls looked like this time in 2008 and 2012.
This has been some of the biggest gaps in years.

It's not about acceptance. Those that resort to rioting and violence feel that all rational courses of action have been expended. And frequently, they're not wrong.

Violence is the language of those who feel vulnerable.

John Oliver did a thing on this over the one dipshit that did the same but with peanuts. Taking the entire refugee population we let in since sept. 11 2001 there were three that turned out to be terrorists of some sort and thye didn't do anything here. the numbers were 1 in 261,000 based off that info. Then he listed off all the poo poo you have to go through to even be let in as a refugee, the whole process taking up to 24 months as the FBI, Hmeland Security and a shitload of other federal agencies and a few foreign ones look up every shred of info on you, finger print you and interview you and test you and only when all that bullshit is over are you let in, so the odds a terrorist from ISIS is going to sneak in that way is effectively zero

And even then you might not necessarily get to america. They might drop your rear end in Iceland or another country accepting refugees.

Some do, others just like Israel because it oppresses Muslims. If Israel took land from a Christian country, Freepers would be in lock-step with neo-nazis.

Or if a christian government formed in Israel I really think they'd be all for it and claim they're the new chosen people or some such.

My thinking too! With all the polls “overwhelmingly showing Hillary winning”, of course it’s a setup. Skew the polls, make them up - and when she “loses” then the Left can attack the results as fraudulent because it didn’t line up with the cooked polls.

Ok
...why? I mean if they have this universal power to cook the polls why even bother chancing it? Let people vote then throw them in the trash and just say hilary won guys totally. Especially if they "know" trump will win.

I know I'm debating with crazy here but goddamn.

What are the odds that Freepers claim they always knew Trump was going to lose when he loses this election? Not even necessarily "it was rigged, we always knew, keep your powder dry :bahgawd:" but more "he was a bad candidate, I always knew I just didn't want to say anything."

Saying a losing GOP candidate was "not a true conservative, that's why no one voted for them" is staple freep rationalizing.

I always wonder who they think they're including with the 'judaeo' bit

I mean, I went to synagogue for like 15 years and I can't think of a single Jewish founding father. I'm pretty sure that would have come up during Hebrew School, we talked about famous Jews in history.

(Spoilers: Maimonides was the best one)

It's a half hearted attempt to include Jews as "one of the good ones" since open anti semitism is a lot harder to get away with now.

They could just say Abrahamic values but that'd include Islam sooooo

It's not even being dumb though. I mean that's part of it but it's more the fear that can make you irrational, and guns give you a potentially lethal way to act on that fear.

Maybe we should have a separate thread on this because it's sort of an interesting topic to see a leftward trend of wanting a gun now and even REGULAR gun discussion is extremely disruptive.

It's like everyone is now thinking Le Jackal was right all along.

This is insane. Even if they watch only Fox News all the time, they can clearly see that even their GOP heroes who have long been out of office are ALWAYS referred to by their previous higher title. GOVERNOR (Jeb) Bush. SPEAKER Gingrich. GOVERNOR Romney. You have to be extremely and willfully obtuse to say or think like this.

When it comes to politics people's memories shut down completely. Generally they really honestly never noticed before but now that someone just shows up and goes "HEY EVER NOTICE THAT..." they take it as fact because, well, they never noticed.

Obama destroyed ITT rather than working to help the students, employees, and the businesses that would be affected due to a shutdown of the school. The left is only happy with liberal indoctrination camps. The average citizen learning real-world skills is NOT something the leftist totalitarians are interested in.

We need to use every opportunity to break up the monopoly the left has gained over education. This could be one such opportunity.
