You have a history of getting upset by the actions of left-wingers after previously ignoring the same actions being done by righties.


You have a history of not remembering the times I did call out the right.

I ain’t perfect. Thanks for trying to be the perfection police.

I can't see any reason for her to automatically comment on it. She's not pro-weapons to attack abortion clinics, nor pro terrorism. She says she's Catholic but supports pro-choice, and she's not the only Catholic to not strictly follow the every preference of the Catholic Church.

And if she does comment, what do you expect her to say? There's good people on both sides?


Don’t leaders have a responsibility to discourage violence?

I guess only some.

I can’t recall you ever calling out the right without also calling out the left in the same post.

Is someone trying to pass legislation that she needs to address about violence against pro-life organizations? Did someone ask her to specifically address the incidents? I'm sure she can answer the second question without controversy. And she can address the first one as that would concern her. If that's relevant.

But I don't see any particular controversy to be upset about.

Which extremists have killed more: pro-abortion extremists or "pro-life" extremists, going back to 1982? Which have caused more property damage (same year)?

We all know the answer.... One side has the moral high ground by default. Without even getting to intention.

Nobody is defending pro-abortion violence. The people caught should be arrested, and if people are in the clinic they have every right to defend themselves by any means. But, there is no comparison.

However, what make "pro-life" violence even worse (and is perhaps more important) is what they are killing for -IE the motive matters-. They are trying to subjugate women. Its like the Taliban (killing to push for strict social values).

She held up the bill for protecting the families of SCOTUS members for a month.

We have a DOJ protesting people for being on the Capitol grounds without entering the building under a Federal statute. They refuse to use a similar statute that covers judges to stop those protesting at homes. One is Trump, one is not. The ones who did stuff the Capitol are different, of course.

Here we go again.

THOUSANDS OF CATTLE SUSPICIOUSLY DIE in Kansas Heat Wave. | WHAT HAPPENED?

Conspiracy theories about thousands of recent cattle deaths.
People are claiming cattle have survived similar heat waves, so it's suspicious. It's going to raise meat prices. What did the government do wrong now.

Veterinarian explains.

Quote:
The perfect storm. We had a rain event, actually, several days of rain (which) created some high humidity in a typically very arid environment,” he said.

This was followed by a sharp spike in temperatures to 100-plus degrees with excessive humidity and no wind. It created conditions that overwhelmed. Dr. Lindberg said overnight temperatures didn’t dip low enough to help.

“Nighttime lows that didn’t get very low. And that’s when cattle and animals are able to dissipate that thermal load from the previous and when they can’t dissipate that thermal heat load, then it just continues to build,” he said.

He said cattle are resilient animals, but abruptly going from cool temperatures to extreme heat, there was no time for acclimation.

“These natural disasters are not very common. Over the 20-plus years, I really can only think of two other natural disaster situations that have affected animals,” Dr. Lindberg said.

Yeah, and we never had heat waves before Algore convinced the sheep of the world it would end if they did not cut back while he lived in a mansion and flew private jets.

Bitcoin dropped almost $4,000 this week and is now around $18,800. Stock market under 30,000. Even CNN is more than hinting that captain Poopypants has got to go. There's nobody in charge of the country. Go watch that Jimmy Kimmel interview again and tell me there is not something wrong with Joe Biden.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Lets hope all of this brings us a new Reagan in 2024 along with putting the Democrats in the wilderness for a decade or more same as happened in 1980.
