They may be shocked to learn that some leftists have guns and know how to use them, if they're forced to defend themselves.
When I was growing up in Utah, the debate centered around "offerings".
Do you pay 10% of your net? Or 10% of your gross? Do you pay tithing on social security income? How much extra should you pay on Fast Sunday (a monthly thing)?
It's all about giving your money to the church. Because rewards in heaven, and god is watching, and all that.

"Just wait and you'll get your turn" isn't as effective when people keep jumping into the line ahead of you.
@imstilljeremy @jewishreader @StillIRise1963 @JRBuckley @Steve When I was coming up, it was often said we "had to be patient" instead of demanding civil rights that they (white people) exercised without hindrance or question.

Because it had been gutted and was useless since Ronnie.
@voron @KimPerales @LindaCollins11@home.social Biden signed something into law in 1999? How does that work?
Mike Pence has a dilemma. With a new federal court order for him to testify before Special Counsel Jack Smithβs grand jury, Pence is running out of time, arguments and options. Aw, poor guy. I explain his predicament in todayβs piece. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/the-perils-of-mike-pence-a-quick?sd=pf
I continue to be mystified by the sentiment that being a First Amendment advocate means *socially* tolerating people I find obnoxious or contemptible. I keep getting βwhat kind of free speech advocate blocks people?β The kind who doesnβt deal with assholes when not professionally compelled to do so. The First Amendment isnβt a hair shirt.
I've always told them free speech goes both ways. They can spout their crap at me, then it's my turn to tell them to fuck off and block them. It's all part of the beautiful tapestry of being able to speak your mind.

How many times have they held all 3 with a filibuster-proof majority? The Republicans don't have to be the majority to be the party of "no". They can still throw a spanner into the works.
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
