  1. And that's why I don't go to street demonstrations. There's nothing there of value. Let the idiots assault each other, and then arrest them.

  2. Need vs Politics on From Google To Yahoo, Tech Grapples With White Male Discontent (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    White males are not very PC today but it's hard to run a company without any of them. The trick is to find a balance where you treat them shitty enough to make the left happy but not so shitty they go somewhere more tolerant.

  3. I don't go to riots. If they come to my house I have a solution for violence. Otherwise I don't give a shit about them. I'm kind of live and let live.

  4. Look at the videos of the riots. In most cases the Nazis were badly outnumbered and got their asses beaten as they were attempting to leave. The one exception was a heavily armed militia group. They moved down a street lined on both sides by Antifa and other left wing groups but strangely no one tried to club them. I was surprised it wasn't on the news until I realized they never fired a shot. A group of white supremacists armed to the teeth with assault weapons moving through a riot and not killing anyone didn't seem like news to the MSM. Especially not when they had a stupid cuck that mowed down people at random with his car.

  5. He's the exception. Only a few people like him think this way or else the US would look like Syria does today. Too bad he has no use for the rule of law, it keeps his ignorant ass safe as well.

  6. I don't fear them at all. For one thing, when I see a bunch of idiots marching down the street I avoid them. There's nothing worth my time there, at best it'll be boring At worst some shithead will attack me and when I put him down I'll end up in trouble. I have no use for any of these thugs, the police should bring out the rubber bullets and apply liberally. The fact you think there is anything okay with these tactics tells me all I need to know about you.

    What's ironic is they use fascist tactics. Beat everyone that opposes your viewpoint. They've been terrorizing every conservative event since the election. This is the first time they've actually run up against anyone as despicable as themselves.

    They were mostly just a bunch of cucks. From the way they got their asses handed to them there weren't any real rednecks in the bunch, just a lot of college boys living off Daddy's money.

  10. At least he didn't hit you with a club. That's actually a mild response for a liberal, most of them call me bad names.

    No, you can say anything you want in public. People do it all the time. You don't have the right to violate a terms of use agreement and expect service.

    It is censorship, but corporations have generally been able to do that. I hope GoDaddy would do the same to an alt-left site advocating killing people as well.

    In this case they probably would have had to leave the site up. Hate speech is free speech. Funny thing, the original rulings on speech were to benefit liberals, now the alt-right is using the same rulings.

    The government is bound to allow free speech. A corporation doesn't have to put up with things they find objectionable. There are other options for those pushing hate and GoDaddy is certainly in the right here.

    They have rules and any site that violates them are subject to them. Supporting violence should certainly get anyone booted.

    More likely they destroyed themselves. I look at the insanity on this planet and I'm pretty sure that nuclear war is inevitable. When it was 3 nations it was controllable. Now we have nations like Pakistan, North Korea and Iran. How long before Syria, Venezuela, Somalia. Once building a nuke was a challenge requiring SuperPower status. Now it just requires maniacal determination.

    I admit it's true. The machines were pure magic in the 80s and into late 90s. Sadly I had to move on and I learned to love linux after many years. I still have my Amiga collection though and bought a Vampire II a few months ago. I remember how pissed off and aggravated most of my pc owning friends were with their windows problems in the 90s and they looked longingly at my amiga but just couldn't handle the cost. It was dreadfully expensive. I was about to buy an Amiga 4000 when Commodore tanked and the cost skyrocketed. For what I payed for an 060 accelerator you could buy a good spec pc.

    I've seen lots of people retire with a huge amount of money in 401K funds. Consistent contribution especially as most companies match a percentage means huge gains over a long period. I bought a home out of mine and have plenty left over to keep me going for the next 30 years or so even if I never get a dime from the SS scam. I dream of what I could have if SS operated the same way. The federal government's employee version of 401K called TSP has many millionaires with a total of around half a trillion in investments. Not bad for a program begun in the 80's.

    People in the US typically choose lifestyles that aren't conducive to a long life. Not all but a very significant percentage. Over indulging in all kinds of things that are health hazards means cancer and heart disease are still big killers despite huge strides in treatment over the last few decades. I've had several people in my family that ended their days early through drugs as well.
