Trump supporter caravan blocks people from voting in California
The independent put out the article
My sarcasm elude you?A huge caravan of supporters of President Donald Trump reportedly blocked the road to a voting centre in Temecula, California, on Sunday afternoon, prompting would-be voters to call the police.
No sir. I enjoy sarcasmMy sarcasm elude you?
Eric Garner
Well this story started off with Eric Garner being a peace maker.
He was on the street selling "loosies" which is the practice of private sale of individual cigarettes.
OK. What is your point?hmm..
he was selling loose cigarettes in front of a store that may be owned by: an african-american entrepreneur or perhaps a legal immigrant entrepreneur. these people are taking economic risks (crime, higher insurance) to serve a community that is called 'underserved' by many.
Great. Again, what is your point?an establishment selling cigarettes for profit may be bad for health, but, the taxes generated pay for many social services. ummm, everything from free 'cooling centers' in the summer to free school lunches for children. minority communities are the main beneficiaries of these social programs.
Again most of these "loosies" are not stolen. They are simply bought outside of New York and sold at a markup that does not exceed New York prices.the big picture is that if everyone was like this guy, we'd be worse than a 3rd world country. next is toothpaste, paper towels and coffee for sale on the sidewalk, you know - stuff that fell out of a rail car.
What? Resisting arrest? Yes I agree.what he was doing hurts minority communities.
Social programs do not empower minorities. In fact they do the exact opposite. If social programs empowered minorities you would not have generation after generation living in the projects under ever expanding "entitlement" groups. You know what empowers minorities? Education and employment opportunities. The fact you believe social programs empower minorities makes you look like a total dumbass. The proof they do not is overwhelming.if you are for minority economic empowerment with minorities benefitting from social programs paid by local taxes - then you must be against this type of activity.
No. Eric Garner died because you had a bunch of greedy corrupt politicians with their hand out demanding outrageous taxes. Pay up or else. Of course they don't do their own dirty work. They use the police for that then publicly criticize them.ihis death was tragic, but this event foretold what the social justice warrior media and absurdly comical social media world deem a crime worth arrest.
Immigration is a complicated matter. If I had my way I rather previous immigrants either agree to pay a fine, agree to no "entitlement" programs for the next 15 years, and be made citizens or be deported. After that we send a message to the rest of the world that violation of our borders will no longer be tolerated and we will protect them using lethal means if necessary. From my perspective if you don't enforce your borders you cease to have a country.isimilar to illegal vs. legal immigration. those entities don't differentiate, despite there being a clear difference in the u.s. constitution and penal codes.
OK. What is your point?

Great. Again, what is your point?
