I worry about only one thing, how to keep a roof over my head for my son and wife. If anything interferes with that, well, you don't want to be the one that does...

Assad is being propped up by the Russians and knows the Americans won't do shit if he gasses people, and so far he's right as even when they blame him all they have done in response is a PR fireworks display that Assad was warned of in advance. Not saying Assad did this gas attack, but this idea that Assad had zero reason to use gas and therefore it had to be someone else is just silly. He is quite the likely suspect.

Agreed, I don't dismiss the frame job scenario, certainly not against the laws of physics, but Assad gassing people and getting away with it ain't no thang, he's got nothing to lose, and he's TLAM proof where he's sitting right now.

Yeah, I don't quite get that either. It's an Assad family tradition.

Maybe we can give you 3/5 of a vote or something. You are after all a white non-Islamic male.

Huh. What's this about 3/5 of a vote. Whoever got one of those?

Thanks Woodrow. [Or should it be: "Thanks Alec?" or "Thanks Quincy"] [Are there any memes out there that fit? I guess I should google first.]

I got to page 2 before I realized that I don't give a fuck.

He might be referring to the 3/5 clause in the Constitution which states slaves only count as 3/5 of a person for determining how many Representatives a state got. The more people counted, the more power a state got in the Federal government.

Literally the only fuck given is one that may be taking money out of our pockets.

Not sure how this Trump Revolution will evolve, but I believe there will be another derivation (I suspect a Bern Bro and Paul Bot Alliance) because the will is there in the public to rise up and just forcibly remove anyone living in the District of Columbia. We are just desperately waiting on a leader who can talk over the media like Trump was able to.

Problem now though is just like the Republican Party is still working on Paul-proofing their nomination process, the establishment is Trump-proofing itself now via internet censorship.
As was once pointed out to me, even in a war, unless you're in a place like Aleppo most people, most of the time, are just living their lives. Going to school work, farming, playing, whatever. So I'm not surprised here in America, nothing much noticed.
