As a Canadian on the outside looking in, I am concerned about the health and welfare of my many American friends, most of whom are expats that I met while traveling abroad. I am also very worried about my 3 adult children that my wife took to the US when she married a US military man after our divorce in the 80's.
I expect that the merde will hit the ventelateur in short order and that we will have an influx of American refugees at our southern border before the year is out, we will have to screen them to make sure that there are no MAGA terrorists in the group and that they are not already infected with COVID19 due to the completely shit job that the US Trump Government has done to date.

I love the boldface quote in the middle: "The health and safety of Americans now depends on the dumbest among us." Who is that from???
What is heartening to me is the large numbers of White Americans finally overcoming reluctance to openly support the important BLM cause and finally joining it as a cause that impacts all of us, even if it does so in very different ways.
People who really love their country fight to save it from its mistakes. Flag-waving and trying to disqualify civil rights advocates as somehow "not patriotic" is basically juvenile mentality. Emotional grown-ups who love their country work to make it better, not blindly ignore glaring deficiencies with platitudes of "God's Country" and American Exceptionalism nonsense.

As a member of society one must adhere to the rules of that society. I am forbidden to drive my car 100 MPH (160kph) as it presents a safety hazard to others. This BS with not wearing masks started with the Orange Turd and continues with covidiots denying science. I can't be the only one that dreams of hitting the covidiots in the head with a 2x4, I only hesitate as I know it won't fix stupid.

Do you find it odd that there are only videos of white people acting out? What would you think if I posted a video black women gets violent? That would be seen as racist and taken down...Hmmmm Do you honestly think poc never crime or act hateful and that they all suffer more than white people when we had a black president or 8 years. We have black millionaires and black cops. Look up crime stats. Look up hate groups. 144 antiwhite hate groups in this country according to our very liberal southern poverty law, the very same that also reports the kkk which actually has about 1 third the number of chapters than there are anti white hate groups. Meanwhile you have a leader in BLM that is tied to Louis Farrakhan the guy that believes white people are the devil and talks about killing and enslaving them. Meanwhile people are yelling chanting death threats to police and blocking emergency vehicles and preventing people from being able to get home to their families and that isnt peaceful. Also blowing up police cars not peaceful Why don't they also protest the street crime that results in the deaths of thousands and thousands?Dont those lives matter? I watched leaders if BLM preach their Marxism. You should read up on what happened under Stalin. Communism weakened the power of everyday citizens and is a set up for a totalitarian government where freedoms like freedom of speech and freedoms of religion are more easily punished. They are purposefully promoting an anti police agenda in effort to weaken the system of government. Enemies of the state try to destroy America. Americans work to make the lives of other Americans better.

Seat belts, rubber gloves, surgeon masks, hard hats, chaps, brake bars on chain saws, roll cages, hand rails, no-skid stair steps, stop lights, yield signs, brake lights, turn signals, bubble wrap, steel tip boots, anti venom, safety glass, the list goes on and I'm sure you all can add to the list.

Things we need but do not have - term limits, abolish electoral college, etc.
