When crazed leftists attack any law enforcement with a deadly weapon, including a vehicle or a gun, as those two crazed leftists did to ICE, then they win their Darwin awards. FAFO as they say. ICE has to wear masks because crazed leftists dox them and threaten their families. The left, itself, caused the need for the masks.
Border police in a number of European countries have had to resort to guns in dealing with illegal aliens. the Greek military actually killed a few of them trying to rush the main crossing between Turkey and Greece. It is justified because illegal alien invaders have used deadly force against border guards, including killing a Polish infantryman with a homemade spear. Federal law makes harboring an illegal alien a felony, and that law needs to be enforced. The Democrats want to keep here the illegal aliens who commit crimes in our country, so they can commit more crimes against Americans. Even Gov. "Tampon Tim" Walz pardoned a child rapist illegal alien to try to (unsuccessfully) keep him in the country.

And that brings up another feature of extremism. Extremists tend to source their information from those they agree with. In reality, every story has 3 sides, the left, the right and the truth. Extremists aren't interested in the truth. They tend to simplify an issue leaving out the very real complexities we all face in life.
Example: CV points out that Americans are with conservatives on illegal immigration. On one hand that appears true, however when Americans see citizens in Minnesota being shot in the street, kids torn from their parents, and masked gunmen patrolling their neighborhoods, support for this activity drops. Extremists want you to believe life is black and white. Everyone reading this knows that isn't true.

You might want to look at some polls, Little Bobbie. Americans are with conservatives on deporting illegal aliens and the SAVE Act to protect our elections from shananigans. They are with the GOP on energy, not the Democrats nutty climate crusade. They want to keep biological males out of female sports and female restrooms and locker rooms, again aligning with the conservative position.
In fact, Bobbie, form your posts here, you are quite a far leftist.

Your worried cause you just make it up. Both parties have their extremists. The BO is a far right-wing publication that 80% of the country would be at odds with. The democrats have their version of it on the far left.
Both sides make up stuff about each other to appear normal. Extremists are not the norm, hence why we call them extremist. Maybe we should be working together to solve our common problems.

Good move. Government, which creates inflation, should not tax us on it. Inflation is NOT "income"

It is just not that complicated: The Left is bereft of all common sense, and all common decency, and this is me, with all my knowledge attained, just being kind because I could innumerate and go quite deep.
Is the Republican Party the answer? Maybe, but only if we rid ourselves of most, if not all of the RINOs.

Commented on What the flock?Why does Lowes participate in this Orwellian police state KGB-like Flock network? Shame on them.
Here is just one example of many of a law abiding citizen suffering severe harm when they were Flocked: dailycaller.com

Unca SD: I think the common denominator here, once all the smoke settles, is the Uniparty (Globalist) coalition. They have entrenched themselves into both parties and have done exactly what General/President Washington said they would do.
One side blames the other, and vice versa, but we all know they eat together at the Waffle House when the match is over; it's all kayfabe meant for entertainment purposes. People now see the kayfabe...you can think Vince Jr for that one.

Commented on southeastern NC citizens tell county commissioners to remove Flock surveillance camerasHave y'all read or heard about the angle that Lenoir County is using to change public opinion on Flock cameras?
They used one to find a missing man, allegedly. Watch how this goes and take notes on the public response. The political handlers are upset that people are calling them out on their bullshit and standing up to the privacy of the community being violated. Common sense folks are calling things as they see them and it ain't sitting well with the "powers that be". Many of them know they're royally screwed especially in the polls of public opinion.

JV: I know real estate quite well, and I know government even better, whereby, I am forced to declare Steed is correct: The Democratic Socialists, and the Non Patriot Left are completely responsible for the Inflation that got rolling hard during the Vegetable President's Administration.
The two main culprits that drove up housing inflation was mainly the over stimulus by the Democratic Socialists, and the Non Patriot Left when Covid was absolutely over, which was the worst supply and demand imbalance in history. The housing inflation situation was just as bad: The recruitment of Illegals by the The Democratic Socialists, and the Non Patriot Left to use for their nefarious political and non patriot purposes. It is my estimation that the Democratic Socialist /Non Patriot infamous and planned treasonous invasions by Illegals is costing a minimum of 1/2 trillion dollars per year of tax payer dollars over and above any possible benefit these Illegals may economically provide. This planned invasion will continue to cost We, The People until the problem is fixed, or this Constitutional Republic is dissolved by these terrible actions of the Democratic Socialists /Non Patriot Left.

Steed: You're a good dude and I respect you, man, but if you think that the current housing market and economy is solely the result of the left and "illegal immigration", I've got oceanfront property I'll sell you in Arizona, man.
If Republicans think that folks are going to keep buying that bullshit, they already know they're defeated. Trump backed Republicans aren't performing well across the board and it doesn't take Tesla to figure out why. It's almost like it's being done on purpose

Commented on southeastern NC citizens tell county commissioners to remove Flock surveillance camerasWe should remember that it was our own Representative Keith Kidwell who blocked authorization of these license plate readers in the NC House for years. Finally, the RINOs pushing the things took advantage of an excused medical absence of Kidwell to slip the license plate readers as a committee substitute into a bill at the last minute while he was out to get it past him. Kidwell has been a stalwart in protecting our rights and freedoms.

The system on the BO will not let me revise my comment below, but I wanted to point out that the recent study on the impact of illegal immigration on housing costs came from the Federal Reserve.
Also, while I agree that Whatley was not my first choice as a candidate, and in fact I voted for someone else in the primary, he is now the only game in town to try to stop corrupt leftwinger Roy Cooper.

Inflation is a big problem, and the biggest source of that is federal deficit spending and the resulting debt. However, illegal immigration also drives inflation, as a recent study on housing costs recently showed, documenting how illegal immigration has been a major factor in rising housing costs, both rental and purchase. Other studies have documented how illegal immigration has increased the cost of medical care and of various types of insurance including medical insurance and auto insurance.
The war in Iran ran up petroleum prices, but they have come down a good bit. The problem now is the price of refined petroleum - gas and diesel. Part of that is the world market, impacted by Ukraine's destruction of Russian oil refineries and oil export terminals, resulting in Russia halting its export of refined products to preserve them for a strained local market, The market in the US for refined petroleum products like gas and diesel is also strained by California's asinine environmental policies that have caused two of their refineries to close and two more to switch to biodiesel instead of petroleum products. Now, instead of California being self sufficient to meet their own needs for gas and diesel, they have to import almost half of their needs. Originally, that was coming from Asia. Now it mostly comes from Texas, which strains the supply of refined petroleum products to the rest of the country, causing higher prices.

Commented on southeastern NC citizens tell county commissioners to remove Flock surveillance camerasThe City of Greenville felt some substantial heat from informed citizens over the issue of Flock cameras. It was substantial enough that a public press release was put out on social media.
The Washington City Council should be taking notes on this as it's an issue that they will have to face the remaining voters on. This isn't a partisan matter, it's a matter of common sense. If they drop the ball and continue to allow our data to be stored, sold and distributed.....they just need to pack it up and go back to the house.

So.....Whatley comes to the Ayden Country Club and talks about Border Security for 30 mins. When gas is STILL $3.59-$3.69 per gallon and a gallon of milk is $3.50, Border Security is the last thing on someone's mind...that's not retired.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: If Whatley is the best that the NC GOP has to offer against Cooper, as Little Enos said in "Smokey and The Bandit": "Daddy, I b'lieve you're about to have your evenin' ruined." Right now, if I bet 100 dollars on Whatley NOT winning the US Senate seat, I get a $795 payout after Selection Night.

Commented on City of Washington is upgrading its electric & water meters to Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI)By tying our electric and water system operations into Tyler Tech's national network, Washington puts a bullseye on our back for hackers from adversarial countries. They can take down a whole lot more by attacking there than attacking small systems piecemeal. This is an incredibly stupid idea. Tyler Tech is probably also a target due to their now running court filing systems in multiple states including our own. China and Russia both have armies of hackers and bot farms for assymetric warfare attacks on adversaries, and a standoff with one of them could lead to attacks on our utilities or courts or other things. When those things are concentrated in one place, it makes them a very attractive target for such attacks.
Iran's hackers are less sophisticated than those of China or Russia, but they have taken down a British electric plant recently and are prime suspects in attacks on some utilities here in the US. freebeacon.com If the number of constant glitches in Tyler Tech's court filing system is any indicator, Washington utility customers will not be well served by them.

Commented on southeastern NC citizens tell county commissioners to remove Flock surveillance camerasThere are two Flock license plate reader cameras at Lowes, one near the highway at each of the entrances. They have solar panels on top for power and are painted black so you don't notice them. They send the data on every license plate that enters Lowes to the national computer bank operated by Flock and stored there. Some Flock systems also collect data on electronic devices like cell phones that may be in each car, but it is not certain if these cameras have that capability. All of them record licenses plates and send that data to Flocks national database.

If a man has ears to hear, let him hear. From Paul to the Corinthians:
Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse. For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it. For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you. When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord's supper. For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken. What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? what shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not. For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, this cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come. Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body. For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep. For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
