^ speaking of crazy loons. Who decides showing up to the police station in tactical gear and armed to the teeth is a good idea?
Although openly carrying firearms is permitted in the state, the stunt drew widespread criticism from both law enforcement and gun rights advocates.
The tea party was all about the debt (which as others have said made them so attractive) and Cruz was all about dealing with the debt, but the whole focus on the debt seems to have been lost. I never see much about the debt in the news anymore.
Go get them North Dakota --"North Dakota’s tax commissioner wants to ensure that professional protestors at Standing Rock are paying their fair share to the state, which has spent more than $22 million policing the thousands who showed up in opposition to the Dakota Access pipeline.....
Here is Ben Shapiro dealing with transgender issue at a Q&A
“As far as the actual psychological issues at play, it used to be called gender identity disorder; now they call it gender dysphoria,” he said. “The idea that sex or gender is malleable is not true. I’m not denying your humanity if you are a transgender person. I am saying that you are not the sex which you claim to be. You’re still a human being, and you’re a human being with an issue then I wish you Godspeed in dealing with it in any whatever way you see fit. But if you’re going to dictate to me that I’m supposed to pretend, I’m supposed to pretend that men are women and women are men, no. My answer is no. I’m not going to — I’m not going to modify basic biology because it threatens your subjective sense of what you are.”
The young woman attempted to make an argument for objective transgenderism by claiming gender is decided in one’s own mind and thus deserves validation from others. Shapiro debunked that claim as well.
“Let me ask you this. I won’t ask how old — I will ask how old you are, because you’re young enough that it’s probably not insulting to ask you,” he asked the young woman.
“I’m 22, so I’m probably a little bit naïve, right?” she said.
“No. Why aren’t you 60?… Why can’t you identify as 60?” he asked.
“It’s not the same as gender. You can’t just….”
“You’re right,” he said. “Age is significantly less important than gender. You can’t magically change your gender. You can’t magically change your sex. You can’t magically change your age.”
The young woman tried to argue that legal age can be changed, which isn’t true. Eventually, it was accepted that legally or mentally changing your identity does not make you a physically different person. Age and gender are both qualities that cannot be physically changed by self-identification.
Shapiro made the best argument possible about transgender.
Shapiro is a bad ***. I listen to his podcast almost every day. It's a little ironic that you all would like him though. He was a vocal NeverTrumper and criticizes him almost every day.
No one is perfect
Lol. I got a ton of flack around here for basically adopting the same position on Trump as he did.
Well earned too. You were effectively working for Hillary. Both of you were. Doesnt mean you cant both be right on tansgenderism.
We weren't working for Hillary .....
"effectively"
I told him the same thing on twitter (in so many words)
Got 100+ "likes"
Only in the Trump Era are Twitter likes evidence of something's truth.
Voting, but voting for anyone but Trump, or not voting at all meant that you were effectively with her.
They say the same thing because they are both correct.According to hillary people bitter over the election, voting your conscience with a third party candidate was the same as voting for Trump.
It is funny how the hardcore pro Trump and hardcore anti-Trump dems cannot tell when they are saying the exact same things and alienating everyone else.
Shouldn't there be some basic standard that is required to win your vote? For instance, I can understand hiring an under-qualified candidate for a job if he is better than the other candidates that applied. But what if he was someone that I felt would embarrass me or my business. I would not hire him in that situation even if he were the best candidate of a bad bunch. There is some implicit level of endorsement that occurs when you vote for someone or hire someone. Trump would serve himself well to remember that for his reelection campaign.If you saw Trump and Hillary as equally bad, then voting for a third party candidate that had no chance of winning makes sense because you were indifferent to the election result.

Here is more on the "mountains of garbage" the naked hippy protestors left behind in Dakota land......
I respect your position but just see it differently. I cannot vote for a person who I would be embarrassed to admit that I voted for. That said, I did find myself rooting pretty hard against Hillary winning on election night.I agree with your decision concerning hiring a job seeker. The presidential election differs from your analogy because one of the two was going to be hired regardless. Therefore, you should choose the one that is slightly favored (less repugnant) in order to improve your situation.
