ANTIFA Gets Violent At Trump Protest in Laguna

I agree...what has happened to the country I grew up in is beyond horrible and absolutely intentional by the perpetrators. And then we have the issue of useful idiots - and I'm afraid my friend is one of those.

I hope the pendulum is finally swinging the other way but the education system is churning out little commies who don't know up from down. Saw a video yesterday that showed some of these people thinking we should be like Venezuela. How stupid can you get...they wouldn't last a day before crying for their dinner.

I don't know how old you are, but I suspect that I'm older and even if it's only by a few years, it makes a difference. I'm 6 years older than one of my two longest/oldest best friends and though we couldn't be MORE similar ( in likes, dislikes, education levels, interests, knowledge, politics, etc. ), we DO have a slight disagreement in how we see one, JUST ONE, historical event. And yes, it really IS the age difference. Happily, we don't come to blows over it and IF that topic comes up, I now start a different topic of conversation. It's just NOT worth debating it again. LOL

I've been hoping for that pendulum swing for a VERY long while; sadly. Just when I think that things just can't get worse....it manages to do so.

Time was, that the idiot "fringe" was not just a really small minority, it was a more or less silent one. Unfortunately, that all ended in the mid 1960s.

And now, mordant stupidity is not only rampant...it is on the rise every day.

The morons used to say that we should be just like Cuba; some still do.

The fringe of the fringe used to claim that we should be just like the USSR, but that never got all that much traction, because, yes, people and even kids were far more educated and intelligent back then, than they are today. And even though there are far more ways to get the news, today, far more people just don't bother to keep up.
