    Indeed a bummer. But hey folks, I got a huge discount on my auto insurance. If you are looking to save a few $’s here & there, I’m here to tell you, that shit adds up. Ask me how to save a few coins for a later time in the comments.

    “I can’t stand the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made-up, new age term that — it does a lot of damage.” -Charlie Kirk-

    Tell me Charlie…what does more damage? The word empathy or a rifle round to the neck? I’m curious.

    My bad. You’ll have a little trouble answering now.

      I think that’s possible on a certain level. We’re not getting into a Hollywood “civil war”.

      However, I’m absolutely worried that a MAGAt will use tomorrow (9/11) as their massacre moment.

    Gov waltz and many others Dems are saying Charlie’s in their prayer’s. Why? Why the fuck do we have to be the good guys about this when it’s a Republican victim?

    When have they ever show an ounce of respect for kids who have had their heads blown open while in school? Not even respect, they harass families so much that they have to move and create celebrities like Alex jones who made millions off their loss

      The Dems just don’t seem to realize how dire things are. It’s maddening.

      Democrats coming in with their “they go low, we go high” bullshit like it hasn’t painted them as spineless and ineffectual for the last decade or so.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
