Then those religious schools must admit students from all races, religions and economic standing. That is what public schools do. My children attended a religious school that supported itself. The only tax money they got was for one young student who needed special ed supplies to to attend. The education at those schools also taught everything…[Read more]

And the so called president’s headline for today “the president does nothing as the cases rise.”

Now we should follow that list up with the list of the unarmed deaths by police. That should also include deaths of all colors.

So, that makes two horrible candidates and no one to vote for.

Slowdown of pollution, people gardening more and this.

Since the 80s they have been infiltrating in schools, police departments and the military itself. As far as I know they were not so successful in schools because teachers and parents caught on pretty fast. But with the military and the police it is different – the military was their training ground for violence and they are seldom investigated.…[Read more]

Yes, how do you use the methods of MLK when a bunch of gun men/women show up. These protests are not planned to include guns or any other form of violence – if the police want to arrest someone just arrest those who are carrying the guns. That allows for freedom of speech and keeps those who are deliberately targeting violence. Let them hold their…[Read more]

Ok, what is left if Obamacare is overthrown. Medicare, Medicaid, VA, Indian Health, etc. all are now part of Obamacare. If they end then there is no health care for anyone anymore?

Before the modern evangelicals took over religion a prayer included faith in science and reason. It acknowledged that God sends help through people and not some fantasy lightning bolt. Now it means – sit back – pray and do nothing to help yourself or others – for gods sake do not go to a doctor or get a vaccine or change your lifestyle so that we…[Read more]

IMO this is a good move. They will probably end up with multiple families living in the house but that is no different than what has happened to me. I live with my grandson and his wife. Our house is too small but it works. Those empty houses are now owned by the banksters and many of them are falling apart. At least maybe the homeless will take…[Read more]

They want us to believe that it is just a few bad apples. But when they all continue to protect the bad apples then that makes all of them bad apples. And that cannot be changed by ignoring the fact that there is a thin blue line and that they are no longer local police but instead militarized employees of the 1%.

Because he was smart enough to make Pence his VP. Many of us are more afraid of Pence than we are of tRump. tRump is just the puppet.

Dixiecrat in the flesh.

Love the answer to his son. “More like 400 years, son.”

A half measure but even that is going to be hard to pass. Remember this country is run by fear mongers.

I am older than the boomers but my children are not. To say that most of them were in college is the key. They had hope. And they are just barely being touched by what is happening in all our present day crises. IF they protested in the 60s they thought that we won the fight because we got out of Vietnam and got rid of the draft. Most of them then…[Read more]

is what is really wrong with our police departments. They think that everything carries a death penalty. Except when they kill someone and are charged with it.

My grandfather was a policemen back in the days when this was not true. He worked in a small town where everyone knew each other. I got involved with some of the kids (older teens and…[Read more]

To bad you bastids now we have tRump and Biden and neither of them have any good ideas.

I live in a community that is multiracial mostly white and Native American. The issue of racial violence back in the 80s looked like what is going on today. But we found a solution that works. Both communities have their own police forces and while it can still get somewhat rough it is much better when problems are handled by their own community.…[Read more]
