I suppose that you are technically correct , that and/or Pacific Islander . The thing is though , in Germany , which at one time , before World War I , had colonized Papua New Guinea , such offspring were regarded as being Black , especially by the Third Reich .

Well, gun rights advocates do claim , however selectively perhaps , that firearms are not only for hunting , or even self defense , but also to potentially resist a tyrannical government . And in spite of the narrow minded , dictonomous hypocrisy of @Godstud , whom cannot seem to take note of the apparent faults to be found on his own side , whatever his political position even is anymore , as Mao Zedong so succinctly put it , "Political power grows from the barrel of a gun". I have been faced with the false consciousness of lily liver liberalism , ever since I was an elementary schoolchild , when I would stand up to bullies , only to be told that it takes two to fight , and that fighting is never right . This is why even back then I realized that the genteel bourgeoisie is out of touch with the harsh reality of life in the real world , where there naive ideals fail to work out . No , my political stance is of the radical , rather than the liberal left , as typified by the Italian Arditi del Popolo . As the Book of Ecclesiastes puts it , " For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; 3a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; 8a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace."

The question that I feel should be asked is " What would Buffy do ?"

You mean the German-American Bund , I take it ? That's just it though , people don't realize just how bad things might get , until it comes to pass . People like to muse about how things would have been , had Georg Elser , among other individuals , succeeded in assassinating Hitler . But as we have seen here from the likes of @Godstud , if one does attempt to preemptively take out a would be tyrant , such a perpetrator will then be decried as being a bloodthirsty fanatic , and those who had died in the bomb blast would similarly be bemoaned as heroes . No one would realize the proverbial bullet that would have been dodged , if he had been successful. Which is why the work of an assassin is always a thankless task , especially in response from the pearl clutching liberals , with their genteel sensibility of respectability .

@Deutschmania Sure thing, whilst you spout dipshit Communist rhetoric, like the cultist you are. I am not a hypocrite simply because I see the faults on both sides. I am not an ideologue such like you, however, as your ideology doesn't allow you to critically think, and teaches you to believe lies.

Trump is as much a tyrant as Harris is. That is to say that neither of them is and you're a bunch of fear-mongers. USA didn't suffer under Trump's term anymore than it did under Biden. There were riots but no insurrections.

You are apologists for a murder(the shooter). You lack basic morality and empathy.

Trump supporters have never asked for the death of Biden like you people have. Think on that a bit. 2nd Amendment arguments are meaningless as Biden didn't change anything, either.

They asked for the death of Pence. That wasn't very nice.

Especially as they wanted to do it themselves.

They were just going to hang him until he was nearly dead?

Honestly, you're telling me to stop lying?

Yea, I could see them just being called "black" in America.

Still, does it matter?

As long as they are raised to be good, decent, and secure in themselves, they should be fine. Just don't let the Fox New Republicans near them.
#15321489
Godstud, I'd like to revisit our earlier conversation. Why do you think the Trump shooter was able to register as a Republican in 2015, when they were 12 years old at most? There is some variation by state, but you have to be 18 to register to vote. That's when you register with a party, as that gives the state level apparatus of the Democratic or Republican party certain priviliges. Which, again, vary by state. You can also register as an Independent, which I do because I don't want to be on phone or mail lists (registering with a party typically shares your contact information with them).

For example: some states have open and closed primaries. Closed primaries only allow you to vote for the party you choose when you register to vote in the primary elections, which are separate and privately conducted elections held to decide who will represent the party in the official election (in some states, you can actually vote in a Republican primary as a registered Democrat, and vice versa, which is sometimes used to try and put a weaker candidate from the opposition party on the ballot). You have to be 18 to register to vote. To my knowledge, there is no state level registration for anyone who can not legally cast a ballot due to age, residency, etc.

May I ask where you obtained this information from? Because frankly it's quite weird that a 12 year old was officially registered with a party.

Completely peaceful protestors who simply wanted a conversation with Pence about his duty to certify the election.

And communicated that by ironically chanting, as a joke, "Hang Mike Pence", because its a funny joke for that guy.
#15321492
Here's a funny photo of Mike Pence's office when he was Governor of the state of Indiana. He is a big fan of Garfield, the cat who hates Mondays and just loves lasagna.

I don't like him as a person, but you can't deny he has had an interesting life. He was so important he got to meet his hero, Jim Davis. There are rumors that Mr. Davis shared his secret lasagna recipe with Pence (but not Pence's wife, at Pence's insistence). He is a relatable and fun person who you would want to spend time with unless you are a woman because he doesn't allow himself to be alone with women. For reasons that are good.

You are criticizing Trump for being "too interested in international diplomacy."

So I'm not sure you would support anything good in a candidate.

Most voters seem to have been lobotomized by media memes, which makes the concept of "democracy" and "elections" seem very quaint and irrelevant in these days of genocide and world war prep.
#15321495
Current VP betting odds…

Shapiro -260
Kelly. +650

PA is the epicenter of this election. It is going to be a dog fight down to the wire. I predict there will be real scandals as well as crazy conspiracy theories about the voting in PA.

What is this continual stream of nonsense you are writing?
#15321497
Yes, @SpecialOlympian There was a riot. How many were armed? How could there have been intent to kill Pence and have an insurrection when no one was armed for it?

BLM had riots, too. Does that mean they wanted to kill all the white people? Stop making up BS.

The Left-wing source I saw said 2015 he registered as a Republican. I guess it was incorrect. he did, however donate to a Democrat party later. I guess his feelings changed.

Also, they were actively looking for different politicians to capture and possibly kill. Trump is reported to also have been ok with the idea of Pence being killed.

@Godstud has completely lost his mind like the other MAGAs on here. His mind is as gone as Trump himself.

Repeating the same old "no one was armed" lie.

Another lie. He registered as a Republican later.

"In January 2021, he donated $15 to a voter turnout group using a Democratic platform. Since September 2021, he was a registered Republican voter in Pennsylvania."
