So Barr reinstated the death penalty. Ah, yes. What else would one expect from a civilized Christian nation?
We are not even a third world country anymore. We're a 4th or 5th.
All these men are evil murderers who killed women and children. However, like that folk song Ronnie Gilbert sang, "Why do we kill people who kill people to show that killing people is wrong?"
What about treason?
We've opened Pandora's box.
Every day I tell myself it can't get any worse and it always does. It's exhausting and frightening.
Who is next?

He's about as Christian as Trump is.

Yes, I agree DotRen, and that makes me angry too. Pure blasphemy to call themselves Christians on both their parts.

I just discovered a local group of politically like minded people here in my city. Who knew?! Happy to have found them. They look, from website and FB page, like a good group. I hope that's the case. It's nice not to feel all alone in a sea of red. LOL! If nothing else it gives my very discouraged spirit a boost.

nashville11, good article. I really resent that I have become so hateful, in response to what seems to me to be hateful people and a hateful situation in our country. I try to focus on a more positive outlook through meditation. If I didn't have that I would be despondent all the time.

Pure blasphemy to call themselves Christians on both their parts. What's worse, imho, is the stupidity of the people who actually believe them! WTH? That's the dangerous part. Why won't these people think for themselves? Are they that damn lazy to allow others to tell them what to believe? How long before they allow others to tell them how to behave? What then? Who's next? I know I posted this before but it needs to be repeated over and over and over. " In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was his fight for the world against the Jewish poison...as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people." Adolf Hitler, April 12, 1922 Please don't say it's not the same because it IS exactly the same. Please don't say it could never happen here because it IS already happening here. If logic and sanity doesn't nip this illogical insanity in the bud history will repeat itself. It always does. Religion and politics is a deadly combination. That's pure evil! IMHO, of course.

nashville11, Glad you found a group that makes you feel less alone! Thanks for sharing the article about contempt. Good read. I must admit I have been mostly avoiding the whole topic of politics with friends and family "on the other side." I have not had good results with any of them being open-minded enough to listen to me, nor do they want to listen. I'm glad to have this group. I'm part of another ProBoards group that originated from the WW message boards, and one person in particular goes looking for TV news to bolster her contemptuousness. Yet she stopped talking to me for a couple of months because I said I didn't feel comfortable discussing my political views there!! We have a separate political thread, but often some in the group forget to use it. My friendships with them go back so many years that I really don't want to leave, and most in the group keep the topics friendly.

I just discovered a local group of politically like minded people here in my city. Good for you, Joyce. I can almost hear the sigh of relief in your post. Feeling like you're the only one is awful. I'm happy you found them and they will be lucky to have you!

Who among us would have believed we'd ever live to see the President disparaging and denigrating our country and its cities? And idiotic people believe this is leadership? This isn't leadership, and it isn't the first time he's done this. This is permission to let hate run amok whenever you disagree with something. I've never even been to Baltimore, but I feel attacked. It's a part of our country. You know that country that this JA is "making so great again?" Hah! Oh that we can only someday go back to the greatness we had before he came into office. Yay for the mayor, Rep Cummings, and the Baltimore citizens who are standing up to defend their city against this tyrant, and yay for April Ryan for telling it like it is.

Deplorable. Each and every one of those liars, cheats, and thieves. It's odd and kind of scary how their blind supporters still adore them. That settles it! We are an insane species. What else could it be? Anybody have a better explanation for people who worship and adore the people who are hurting them? Good grief. Oh no! It just dawned on me. We're no longer citizens of the US. We're citizens of S & M. This isn't good, people. Nope. Not good at all. Just saying.
