    Can't say as I blame it. Looks like a pretty sketchy neighbourhood.

    Exactly What is "Woke?"

    I think if your workforce or student body or membership or whatever doesn't have roughly the same demographics as the country or region or whatever its catchment area is, that's pretty good evidence you need to pay attention to your hiring/promotion/membership practices. But the place to start...

    Article Doesn't really matter when you're a giant, gaping asshole.

    Royal Navy destroyers to be equipped with DragonFire drone killer in 2027

    In related news, a six-year-old boy in Scotland was killed when a Royal Navy laser fired on a pound coin he was using to buy sweets. Britain need fear no coin attacks!

    Hamas attacks Israel

    THANK you! "The UN" has effectively no power at all. It's a large talking shop, whose edicts have only persuasive force. The only part of the UN that has any power at all is the Security Council, and it has power only insofar as can raise an army from member states and make war.

    Yes, he lies a lot. I'm sure that comes as a horrible shock to you.

    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    And that did not happen at Kent State. Nixon made no finding of insurrection, and did not Federalize the ONG. It was an action directed by Governor Rhodes. Link to Factcheck.org But you keep on displaying your ignorance, Artless Dodger.

    Quit Picking On the Democrats

    Trump is retarded. Advocating that soldiers NOT break the law is sedition? When I was in service, they told us not to follow unlawful orders at least annually, and reminded us that we were each responsible for knowing what military law was. "I vas chust follovink orders" didn't work at Nurnberg.

    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    That's what happens when you get your history from rock songs. The Ohio National Guard was deployed to Kent State by Ohio Governor James Rhodes. It was a state operation. In case you were unaware, the National Guard is organized by each state, and unless called up for Federal duty, is under...

    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    Yes. It's the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 (as amended). Shot through with exceptions and ill-defined terms, it is only worth anything when its intent is honored.

    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    Not yet. But when you expand the definition of "terrorist" beyond "those who employ attacks against innocent civilians to advance political goals" and authorize government measures against "terrorists" beyond normal law enforcement, expanding the definition to include everybody you don't like...

    Black Lives Matter-Ugliness of Racism.

    True. But when whites own disproportionately large shares of the money and the means to make it, the fact that you were made to feel unwelcome in a bar in a Black neighbourhood ain't such a huge deal.

    King launches new Royal Navy submarine HMS Agamemnon

    Warspite is a good name with a venerable history.

    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    I see the day when common muggers are deemed "terrorists." Which will be used to authorize military force.

    King launches new Royal Navy submarine HMS Agamemnon

    Agamemnon was a king and land commander, and an Achaian to boot. You'd think the Briddish would have enough naval heroes of their own to name their ships after.

    Kelly McParland: How decades of Liberal indifference created Danielle Smith

    That's the lay of the land in your area? Too bad. Maybe that could be a campaign slogan "I'll work for you while those other bastards are schmoozing in church, the union hall, the Legion, or the bowling league!"

    Kelly McParland: How decades of Liberal indifference created Danielle Smith

    Good start, and well done to you. Ever consider running (standing) for office? Maybe start with some local, part-time office?
