Calm now perhaps. At the time I couldn't find many other sources who were reporting on events there, and my search results led me to news stories of protests that supposedly occured in Lancaster back in June. This was the last posting on the topic from my local news- https://www.wfmz.com/news/area/pennsylvania/1m-bail-set-for-lancaster-police-shooting-demonstrators/article_090d9f4c-f788-11ea-b737-97f9ecb1e690.html

Here we go with more political correctness in public schools.

Here we go again with more misinformation.

I knew the story before posting about it... the problem I have is how the boys were punished, a punishment should fit the crime and what they are facing is beyond absurd. Never said I fully agreed with the article either, just more political correctness is all. The reaction reeked of PC, bet anything that if there was a student(s) who decided to fly a BLM flag, while maybe facing some kind of discipline like multiple detentions, they most likely would not have been met with such harshness. I don't disagree either with the school's decision on banning such, good idea they had. Those boys did that for spite, but still the punishment they received was too harsh for the crime they supposedly committed.
Don't know how many times I have to repeat this, when I share links on here whether they be in a group or on the public threads, does not automatically mean I endorse the contents of said links. I'm only presenting the other side of the coin as when it comes to political posts on here roughly 80% or so are left wing politics. Don't let my posts make you miserable, it's not worth the frustration, and if someone does get upset over something I post it's no skin off my back.

You pretty much answered your second question. Yes, armed leftwing groups have just as much right to exist as rightwing ones, as long as everyone follows the laws and does not look to incite violence.
This is just a gun rights/pro 2A support group, certain members may or may not back rightwing militia groups. I personally do not back any groups of that nature.

Since you think it was an opinion piece, why then get into a tizzy over such? I could turn around and say your link was an opinion piece as well. His original comment was twisted by those who hate him, and I still contend no one back then truly realized just how dangerous Covid would be months from then. If you think what I posted was bullshit, why bother to even address it then. I'm not inclined to trust those who have an axe to grind. Every frickin thing that goes wrong in this country is somehow Trump's fault, those who hate him have to constantly look for potential things he did or said wrong. I have no qualms in condemning Trump when he does something wrong, and equally have no problem giving him credit when he deserves it. With that approach, you won't win any converts to your arguments.

You mentioned about the quote of the defeated, and I took that to mean you were strictly looking to win (as if there was anything to actually win in the first place). There is nothing to concede, I think it was a hit piece on the President and that's that, it matters not to me if you agree or not. Your coercive take won't make me change my mind. I also tried to answer any questions you had honestly. Sorry, this thread amounted to the both of us arguing, that's what happened. You are convinced your views are the right ones, and I'm convinced mine are accurate, and I'm content on leaving it at that. Ridiculous is your opinion by the way, and of course I could say the same about yours.

@Bierbasstard He may have said it was a threat, but I rather doubt he nor anyone else really knew just how bad things were going to get in the months ahead. Why in the beginning then did the CDC discourage mask wearing? More info came along later that changed their minds, hence the not enough details part. I'm not propping anyone up, only saying what I think is right, I don't care who agrees or disagrees with me. I don't like Trump personally as do alot of folks who had voted for him. Neither the right or left care about the individual these days, they only care about themselves.
In regards to warning people... now, I'm not trying to be a smartass here, but do you people actually need the Government to warn you about potential dangers or hazards? Do you not have a brain in which to think for yourselves? As soon as the news broke out in early March of Covid-19 I started wearing a mask when going out in public, you know back in a time when most of those on the left were ridiculing people like me and calling us mask hoarders (I didn't hoard anything by the way). The mere fact that so many out there apparently need the Government to warn them of dangers is truly concerning to me. If you people already are aware of the fact that Trump tends to lie about and downplay certain things, why on Earth would you wait for him to tell you the right thing to do in an emergency then, that doesn't make much sense to me.

@Bierbasstard If there wasn't enough details to go on at the time, that means any comments made on the matter that suggested he made an informed decision was taken out of context, that doesn't refute anything. No, Trump didn't want there to be widespread panic, which is why he acted as he did. There is no sense in causing a panic, and the concern about the economy was just that... a serious concern and still is. I know the Federal Government is supposed to act in times like that, but they can't be trusted to do so these days though, that's asking too much out of them, the state and local authorities need to do more for themselves although frankly I don't trust them to do what's right either.
I'm not fond of labels either, so what's your point for mentioning that? I have no problem with you or anyone else pointing the finger at Trump for wrongdoing, I have a problem with those who refuse to acknowledge that there is enough blame to go around, Federal State and local authorities. It is my contention that none of those three handled the pandemic as they should have.

@Bierbasstard Information was limited back then, and as I mentioned the CDC weren't telling people to wear masks and in fact they were upset with those who were hoarding masks. Guess people can't think for themselves these days, they need the Government to tell them what's right to do for their safety and health. The Governors of certain left-leaning states have blood on their hands too, and why do think we have Governors? Stop putting all the blame on one man, there is enough blame to go around.
By the way, since when did the left start caring about people's lives anyway? I thought according to them the world is overpopulated and thus causing global warming? One would think a swift decline in the human population would be a good thing for the environment then? For the record, I don't buy into any of that, and that leads me to my previous comment about putting all the blame on one man. Maybe now more people will learn to think and act for themselves and not count on the Federal Government to do what's best, look what happens when we leave things to big brother.

@Bierbasstard Trump does lie about things, haven't known a politician yet who doesn't, and I do acknowledge that. Whether or not we would have been better off had he said otherwise can be debated, but in my opinion is a moot point, and doesn't remove blame on certain state Governors who made poor decisions which resulted in needless deaths. Also, the intelligence at that time was limited. Look at how the CDC flip-flopped on mask wearing, and yet you think the President was solely to blame?
Why not complain about the medias? All of them suck (CNN, MSN, FOX and the list goes on), I don't trust any of them. Honest journalism is a rare thing these days.
One place you said you ignore the opinion pieces, now you claim to enjoy pointing out hypocrisy, so which is it? Not that I care though and you can't blame me for being honest on that, I simply don't care. Don't take opinion pieces too seriously. It's not worth arguing over such, that's why you had to complain to me over someone else in this group blocking you, social media isn't that important. I do agree with you on one thing though, opinion indeed be damned, you have yours and the next guy has his and life goes on.

SpikeTalon replies on Sep 13, 2020:
@Bierbasstard Trump does lie about things, haven't known a politician yet who doesn't, and I do acknowledge that. Whether or not we would have been better off had he said otherwise can be debated, but in my opinion is a moot point, and doesn't remove blame on certain state Governors who made poor decisions which resulted in needless deaths. Also, the intelligence at that time was limited. Look at how the CDC flip-flopped on mask wearing, and yet you think the President was solely to blame?
Why not complain about the medias? All of them suck (CNN, MSN, FOX and the list goes on), I don't trust any of them. Honest journalism is a rare thing these days.
One place you said you ignore the opinion pieces, now you claim to enjoy pointing out hypocrisy, so which is it? Not that I care though and you can't blame me for being honest on that, I simply don't care. Don't take opinion pieces too seriously. It's not worth arguing over such, that's why you had to complain to me over someone else in this group blocking you, social media isn't that important. I do agree with you on one thing though, opinion indeed be damned, you have yours and the next guy has his and life goes on.
The Woodward Tape is yet another far-left smear attempt-

@Bierbasstard I did... both sides exaggerated claims made in regards to that story, and the reason I shared it was to point out how the so-called tolerant left jumps on a juicy story, just like those on the far right who the left enjoy criticizing. Both extremes spread disinformation, and if you think such is only exclusive to the right you'd be wrong. Most media sources these days are nothing more than over glorified opinion pieces, for entertainment if I dare call it that. By the way, thought you ignored the opinion pieces on here?

No, most of those who join this group get sick and tired of arguing on the public posts. For the record, I'm not taking sides on that issue. Some of what Trump had said was questionable, but I brought this up to show how quick the left is to point fingers and jump on a juicy story. Think you know by now that I'm not thrilled with either extreme.

@VeronicaAnn I don't care about who you vote for or what you think about me, just pointed out a contradiction in your statements and nothing more nothing less.
I don't necessarily believe that rumor, I banned you at the request of some others who had concerns before that post even popped up, and some of them who said I should ban you aren't even members in the CA group. I don't care about other's crude assumptions about my character, I care about the needless member drama that occurs all too frequently on here. In short, I don't believe anyone in regards to that post, both them and you point the finger and none of that matters to me. Doesn't feel good now does it when someone spreads rumors about you, now you know how I feel when some members were gossiping about me in the Senate group.

@CaroleKay You're a freaking degenerate lowlife, you know that? I'll tell you who the real coward is here... the one who leaves a snide comment on someone else's post and then immediately blocks them so they couldn't respond, like you did to me in the past. Don't worry, someone else saw your comment and flagged it and Admin deleted it. Just curious, how would you like it if I divulged some of the shit you mentioned to me in private, huh? What a lousy thing to do, spread around gossip that was mentioned to you in good faith and in private. Boy, some of those who voted on your comments here would be shocked to shit if they knew what you really thought about them behind their backs. For the record, if you were on a daily basis receiving hate messages from sock puppet accounts all over your personal views and you couldn't figure out who was behind such, bet you'd have blocked alot of folks on here too. I never had a problem with liberals by the way, I'm rather liberal myself on the social-based issues, and both extremes are nauseating if you want to be honest here. Once I was able to determine some of those who I had blocked were not responsible for the harassing and threatening messages, I since then unblocked them. Saw you on IDW, and you sure didn't last long on there, what's the matter too many right-wingers on there for you to handle? Who's the crybaby now, huh? No truly decent human being would have done what you did above, talking about the contents from private messages, you blabbering backstabber. Then folks like you wonder why "liberals" these days are getting a bum rap? You're no better than the ones you point the finger at, and as I said before both political extremes irritate me. With the exception of one other member on here who openly slandered me, I never blocked someone for merely disagreeing with me, and you already knew the real reason why I had blocked so many so stop playing clueless in an effort to get pat on the back votes you liar. You're my second exception now, there's no being reasonable with you, I tried to go that route with you via PM and you stabbed me in the back you castrating son of a bitch. You like being a "brave" keyboard warrior huh? Well two can play that game...

I mostly agree there. The problem started when state and local police forces were allowed to unionize, and LE itself started to steer away from Sheriffs and deputies in favor of large departments which in turn have become like a business as you mentioned examples above. I truly believe that the issues with LE nowadays could have been mostly avoidable had we stuck with sheriffs and deputies.

I'm okay with reform and better training along with more accountability, and glad to hear you believe the same. I agree on the protesting outside clinics, I'm fine with such just so long as everything stays peaceful. Anyone who threatens to bomb a building or start a fire etc should be put in jail. As for police behaviors go, that's some situation you went through, and the thing is you never should have had to go through such if there was better accountability. No easy solution there, some suggest privatizing as the public police unions have become too powerful, but of course alot would also be against such. Thank you for sharing your story.

Can't say I'm surprised..
SpikeTalon replies on Sep 1, 2020:
The thing that really gets me when it comes to such gangs, when they damage police vehicles or buildings it is ultimately the taxpayers who will foot the bill for any damages, and not any individual cops per se. People like that don't think at all about the consequences, it's all about their emotional breakdowns...

Figured this would be a good one to kick off the month of September.

That they are. Back in 2014 (think it was that year anyway) they appeared at the Allentown Fair along with Chicago, and the Grandstand was packed full that night.

Report: Rod Rosenstein Crippled The Mueller Investigation

The Mueller investigation was nothing but a bogus attempt by the sore looser democrats to remove Trump from office and should never have happened! In fact those responsible for this investigation should be arrested and if convicted sent to prison. @spiketalon, @captain_feelgood

@FearlessFly I'm anti-both parties, Biden is no better. JFK would have been the last President I would have put my full support behind.

@FearlessFly True, but the never Trump Repubs are in league with the Dems though, and such was obvious during the DNC.

@St-Sinner Her last reply to me was snide, even though I tried to understand her perspective.

@VeronikaAnnJ You could have just reported said insane comment and let site support deal with it. These are digital exchanges, is it really worth getting that upset over someone you will never meet in person?
Both Biden and Trump said and continue to say some of the most ridiculous things, both are bad news. You wonder how anyone could support Trump, I wonder how anyone could support a guy who gets touchy feely with little kids. A lesser evil is still an evil, and both of them give me the creeps.
The logic behind banning you? That's simple... based on some of what you have recently said about me and the CA group and also some group posts, I don't trust you. Had a chat with Admin about such issues, and it's a pain for him and his staff when some members get flag happy, so he told me best thing is to just ban so they won't see the group posts. I don't know if it's you or someone else who has been flagging CA group posts and if it was you I don't expect you to say so, but I'm getting rather fed up with the nonsense and resorted to just banning. I don't need the headaches or drama. If you change your mind on how you perceive us I said the offer is still on the table and I'll unban you. I can't understand for all the gripes you have against the CA group why being banned would bother you so much? Someone has been flagging that group alot recently and site support isn't finding anything objectionable, no more so anyway than the leftwing groups who talk down conservatives. For the record, I don't enjoy banning anyone.

@VeronikaAnnJ Veteran perceived that as man hating whether he was right or wrong. I don't remember that exchange. Some of their comments were questionable, and I didn't agree with them hence the bothered part, but I choose to ignore them. Who exactly has the authority to question someone else over perceived prejudices? Did you ever stop to think that you may have perceived something that in reality does not exist? Why is every guy who questions modern day feminism labeled as hateful or an incel? Maybe they aren't comfortable with such absolutes? The real problem in our society is among those who insist on associating with labels and titles, that causes division, which is why I'm registered Independent, can't say I care for labels. I'm sorry, the thought of some going around pointing the finger at others over perceived hate gives me the creeps, who exactly has that kind of authority to do something like that to another? See, that's why the Admin of this site felt the way he did, he realized the danger of a society as you described above where those who are merely suspected of any kind of prejudice get labeled and shamed, and he was right.

SpikeTalon replies on Aug 30, 2020:
@VeronikaAnnJ I get your point on the hate part, but it's worth pointing out that confronting such people over their prejudices will more likely than not cause them to go on the defensive, which is exactly what happened in your exchange with Veteran, you argued with him and he only resisted more. What did that accomplish? Maybe you're right that ignoring isn't always the best approach, but then again maybe confrontation isn't the best approach either. That's a complex issue with no easy solution. This is just my take on it, but having the politically correct police brigade running loose as you described kind of gives me the creeps. Either way you look at it, we're going around in circles on that much.
I've not the slightest clue what your political views still are, I only know and for a fact at that matter that at one time you said with much certainty that you were voting for Trump, and now that suddenly changed. Do what you think is right, I'm not knocking you for making your own choices per se. As for me, neither of them are good news.

@VeronikaAnnJ No one is stopping you from bashing the CA group, just because you were banned that doesn't limit your free speech to bash, so if it pleases you then bash away. Like I mentioned before, if you can put the bashing aside for a moment I'm all game for a conversation on the matter.
If those individuals you mentioned above bother (or were bothering) you, maybe then focus on the individuals that don't engage in such behaviors, not everyone acts like that afterall. I see no point in engaging with such people, focus on those who do act civil, problem solved. I may vent about politicians etc, but I try to be civil with fellow site members until if any of them get personal with me.
You're right about Veteran and Jacar, neither of them bothered me, know why? If whenever they would rant on about say feminism, I for the most part would simply ignore them and try chatting with them later when they cooled down. They didn't bother me because I ignored their rants. Why give someone like that your precious time? For crying out loud when someone acts like that just ignore them. I don't have to agree or disagree with them, it's easier to just ignore folks like that. Don't you realize that when you give them an audience they will do more of the same, let them babble to themselves by ignoring them. Never once did I say specifically that I wasn't bothered by what they were rambling on about, big difference there. Don't give women haters an audience, and that does bother me, but I refuse to give such people the time of day. This is something else to consider... did you ever stop to think that maybe they viewed you as being a man hater? If that by chance be the case, who exactly would be right or wrong there? Of course, I don't think that matters much, both sides are already convinced they are correct and the other wrong, a communication breakdown occurs and we arrive to the current state of affairs, why politics and social issues have become so divisive in our country. No one hardly cares to try to understand how the other side feels, it is only about one's own perception on things.
