CURRENT EVENTS July 31-Sept 27

Indeed, as so often with MAGA, the cruelty is the point. Homeless people need to be punished for being homeless, not actually helped and given food and long-term shelter. And so what Dallas did doesn't suit that mindset at all. They just want them out of sight so they don't have to have their consciences and morals tweaked while they're on their way to Sunday morning church services, or have seeing the homeless remind them that maybe America isn't really all that great again. Like the LGBTQ community, they want these people out of sight and out of mind, and preferably punished in some way.

MAGA would be happy to revert to the “poor houses” of Dickens youth.

I quit drinking in May. That won't move the needle on the overall percentages of non-drinkers, but it should make a dent in the per capita consumption numbers...

I'm sure my increase in alcohol consumption will more than offset you and maybe a dozen other non=drinkers

gaudy is as gaudy does... Would we expect anything less from a crude uncouth occupant of our country's gem ?

I hate to tell you this, lady, but you're no longer with the Church of Jesus, you're a full-fledged member of the Cult of Trump. You've chosen to follow a False Prophet over the teachings of your erstwhile Savior.

Wait, is this not a form of kidnapping?

They're doing it to someone else, so it's not. If it was being done to them, it absolutely would be.

Wait, is this not a form of kidnapping?

It seems incredibly illegal. But since it's Texas and Trump, nobody will prosecute. Also a black woman, of course.

I quit drinking in May. That won't move the needle on the overall percentages of non-drinkers, but it should make a dent in the per capita consumption numbers...

I haven't made a conscious decision to quit, but since Nov 2016, drinking alcohol has lost its appeal. On the rare social occasions that I do have a drink or two, I derive much less pleasure than previously.

The best I can determine, since 2016, my faith in America and my expectation of a brighter future have been shattered to the point that happiness seems unimportant, despite the fact that my current income affords me opportunities that I've never had before.

I don't know if any of that is relevant, but that's my best explanation for my decreased alcohol consumption.
