Isn't there an "ignore" button?

Some of ya'll getting pretty fired up and offended. I gots no problem discussing politics, or controversial topics, but part of the issue in our country is the inability to have conversations without one side or the other screaming and running to their respective corners.

I know, adulting is difficult sometimes... But I vote we give it a shot.

Well said.

I was trying to focus on what could be a trigger and the second and even third order effects that would result.
Those could be more felt by all vs that one event that may happen in a distant city or even on the other side of the country from you.
 
For the few people reading this which I have sent my little book of survival thoughts, notes, drawings and experiences since 1974: Go back and read the first chapter about ""getting into a survival situation -in a group of people- and read what my advice was, is and will keep being for the future...too many people cannot even keep a civil tongue, nice thoughts or kind words within their OWN FAMILY....just imagine what they will/would be like if you got into a war, fight, survival situation or worse with them....(big paul) stay free and stay away from the sheeple!!! love ya! live free, Gary
 
@Trihonda Yes there IS an ignore button and after 9 years being here, I had finally used it for the first time a couple months ago now, I think it was. I used to get very frustrated for a couple new members and will admit I even got baited in with the conversation. Normally I would ignore, but when enough is enough I do put in my two cents in. You either agree or disagree, that is up to them. For the couple I ignore, there is no "discussing" with them because apparently only their minds matter. I'm getting too old and set in my ways.
 
Discussing with a fool, does not take away any of your wisdom. But it does waste some of your most valuable assets!!! Each minute could be better used brushing your teeth, cleaning the garden, visiting a loved one on the phone, kissing your lover, playing with the kids and dogs...get the idea??? Your time is limited, the ignorance of a fool is just as unlimited as the universe! Don't fall into a BLACK HOLE of ignorance---you might not ever get back out. GP
 
The racists will continue to be exposed and eliminated.


YES! The privileged white people need critical race training to show how racist they are, because they don't even know their own hate. Just look at this old white privileged A Hole who wants to ban Menthol cigarettes because of their "damage to the black communities". He says 86% of menthol smokers are black, so they should be banned.

Biden administration is expected to propose BAN on menthol cigarettes because of 'damage to black communities'

WUT!?!?!? That racist A Hole is Joe Hiden?!?!?! What's next; tomorrow Biden will ban fried chicken (cause it causes heart problems), Hennessey (because it causes liver problems), Kool-Aid (because all that sugar makes you fat), and abortion (because so many POC do it)? "If you don't vote for me, you ain't POC" - Joe Biden 2020

You are right, call out racism when you see it.

I’m not sure about that, but people do need to stop referring groups of people in derogatory terms, even if “those are the words ma and pa used to use.”
 
They were not necessarily derogatory when ma and pa used them. The progressives are just changing the rules. So, you have to look at it from the rights point of view. How would you feel if the right taught your college aged child different words that they had to use or they would be labelled racist. Here's one: oriental. I grew up using that word and there is not a thing wrong with it. If you look on a ramen package, it's still called oriental ramen. College students will call you a racist boomer, and tell you the new word is asian.
I hate to say it, but white people are ignoring the word racist. It's overused. Systemic racism. All of that. The left has created a huge problem out of something Americans have made great strides over. Geesh, I even saw one of my lefty friends quote Malcolm X on facebook the other day. Really? Malcom X? MLK would be rolling over in his grave. Remember what MLK said? Judge people by their character and not by the color of their skin. It's a simple thing, really. But no......the left wants all white people to admit they're racist, even though they're not. Get down on our knees and beg for racist forgiveness.
 
Secession has to happen; preferably with walls around the blue states. Defund the police, and empty the prisons... what could possibly go wrong?

76,000 California violent, career felons get earlier releases



SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — With little notice, California on Saturday is increasing early release credits for 76,000 inmates, including violent and repeat felons, as it further trims the population of what once was the nation’s largest state correctional system.

More than 63,000 inmates convicted of violent crimes will be eligible for good behavior credits that shorten their sentences by one-third instead of the one-fifth that had been in place since 2017.

That includes nearly 20,000 inmates who are serving life sentences with the possibility of parole.

Back to the OP, another possible spark, inflation or hyperinflation induced food prices/shortages.
People tend to get upset when they cannot feed themselves or their families. That can lead to real social or civil unrest. History is full of examples of empires failing due to extreme weather leading to a famine.
Technically the current war in Syria was the result of failed crops/food shortage.

Edit: I just posted an article about chicken shortages being felt, especially in the fast food industry.
Unfortunately, yes, I could see civil unrest breaking out in America over shortages of McDonalds new chicken sandwich.
I am not sure if that is a joke or not . . .

You can’t even call racists, racists. Gotcha.


It appears to me that your sole purpose here is disruption. Nobody here likes you, but here you remain. I would never want to be somewhere I wasn't wanted. Says alot about you and your intentions. It's ok to have a different view, but you are clearly taking things and making them what they are not for the sake of argument. I will not be a member of a small forum that allows me to be called racist simply because I no longer support the left's agenda. As a Native American, I am deeply insulted by the new language and tactics of the left. As a proud American, I am deeply insulted by the new language and tactics of the left. As a prepper forum member, I am deeply insulted that a person like this is allowed to continue to post their insults, name calling, and disruptive swill.

Go ahead and ban me permanently.

I agree with everything you said, except for the last sentence. Stay with us!

Don’t be such a sensitive snowflake. I didn’t call you a racist.
 
people are called racist to stifle debate, its an old tactic of the left.
And so it be for some. Yes the term racist or racism is malignantly used to silence, to divide and conquer which does come in many ways. But at the same time there are real racists as I mentioned before. The very reason why we have such laws against those who choose to cross that line.
 
I think that term has been over used, many have been called racist who are just exercising free speech and airing their views, its the woke and snowflake types who cant bear to hear an opinion which isnt the same as theirs and they try to silence any opposing views, much like communism.
 
You all are still wasting your time to convert someone who is non-convertable??? Let me remember, how did that song go?? Jim Croce...
You don't spit into the wind,
you don't tug on Supermans cape,
you don't pull the mask of the old Lone Ranger
and you don't mess around with "them"
Do not just ignore, save your time and wisdom for your animals in the garden, at least they listen to you attentively (and understand).
Ignore the Trolls....PREP! Live free, Gary
 
The CW is here. The left are radically aggressive rabid animals taking over our country, and our rights. It will only get worse because too many people on the right say “we need to stand up to this” but they won’t do it. They think when it gets to their doorstep they will fight. Well, it is too late at that point. You gave them an inch, then the mile, and now your back is against the wall, with no rights to fight back.

I live in Portland, where these pieces of **** break windows, set fires, and assault the police EVERY GD night. The DA refuses to charge them. The mayor is a feckless coward who actually joined them in their assault on the federal building. He has said it has to stop at least a dozen times in the last year, but he ties the hands of the police. We are down to 800 cops for almost a million people. Divide that into three shifts, take away the desk jockeys, carry the one, and you have a city that cannot respond to any 911 calls because all the cops are tackling dummies for the anarchists. Shootings and murders have skyrocketed here in the last year since the mayor defunded the gang task force. There are homeless people EVERYWHERE with giant filthy camps full of trash. Many of them have fires that tie up the fire dept, while taxpayer’s homes burn. The police no longer investigate bike theft unless it’s over $5k. OR just passed a bill to decriminalize all drugs. There aren’t enough detectives to investigate anything. They had to pull the traffic division to work the shootings, so speeding, street racing and DUIs go unchecked. It’s on the local news every week. The police are literally on the news saying they can’t do anything. The city is in complete chaos. This is coming to YOU if the right doesn’t actually stand up and call it out.

Don’t be the frog in the slow boiling pot. Don’t keep your enemies closer. The time to fight is now. They are! When are you going to fight back? After they have taken your guns? People say they won’t give them up, but by they won’t even stand up for what they believe in now.

I won’t sit back and be silent when the left is attacking. The left is “peacefully protesting” for defunding the police, Marxism, “taking white people’s homes”, and taking your guns, while chanting “death to America”. If you don’t agree with that, they call you a racist, or white supremacist. If you get a permit for a conservative rally in the park, they call you a white supremacist, and antifa is allowed to show up and assault you, because, well, you’re a racist, and nobody wants racists. This has played out for years here in Portland, and cities across America.

So, you can ignore the Kevins in America, or you can call them out. If you ignore them, you have nobody to blame but yourselves when they have taken over. The civil war IS here.

Well, I guess the next black dude to be shot should be coming up sometime this week. How dumb can a person be? When the police order you to stop, follow their commands and you won’t be killed.
That’s the thing I can’t seem to understand, why can’t they just comply. They always have to either run , start getting aggressive, screaming like a banshee and just acting stupid. No wonder they get shot. #( just comply and you will be treated like a white guy). No white priviledge involved.
 
“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.”

― Alexander Fraser Tytler

You have to be PREPared to fight, or your other preps are just waiting for the gov't to take them.
 
Outrage as Democratic Party official refers to Republican senator Tim Scott as an 'Oreo' days after he trended as 'Uncle Tim' on Twitter

O’Connor wrote on Facebook: ‘I had hoped that Scott might show some common sense, but it seems clear he is little more than an Oreo with no real principles.’

Outrage as Democratic Party official refers to Tim Scott as an 'oreo' | Daily Mail Online



It's ok, it's OK, he's a democrat, and democrats aren't racist... even the leftwing twitters calling him "Uncle Tim", nothing to see here. Strange how these democrats keep telling black people how to vote and think, but they are NOT racist! Calling everyone on the right a racist for not liking black coffee, but they can call someone Uncle Tim because he doesn;t agree with them, and as a black man, he HAS TO be a democrat. How racist is that?!?!?!?!?
