            You should move this to the Soapbox. This section is not for political posts.

            I must have misread it. I thought we could after the biggest election surprise in our history! Have a moderator move it. I did not intend, the message said it was okay for today!

                  I was a Trumper from day 1. I am a white male who grew up on the free lunch program just outside of detroit, where I was born. I graduated in 1992 after 7 years of college, where I had to work full-time to put myself through school (with some financial AID, tons of loans, and pell grants too). My daughters Hattian (for context) friend of many years exclaimed that if it were not for my WHITE PRIVILEGE, I would not have done so well. I worked 3 jobs for most of my adult life, and started my own business, on the side, over 10 years, while working full-time elsewhere. I am DEEPLY offended by these comments, and she throws them out like it is somehow true. There are HAVES and HAVE NOTS in this country to be sure. Those who HAVE WORKED harder than their peers Those who HAVE EDUCATED themselves Those who HAVE EARNED their income and those who HAVE NOT... But I don't hate this young lady. I think of her as a daughter, in fact. A misguided one to be sure. She never suffered slavery here, because she is a first generation American. I say ALL of this to set the following stage... Enough Divisive Language. I want EVERYONE in America to do well. Honestly! I want EVERYONE who is willing to work, to have that opportunity. I am not against immigrants, I am against Free Loaders, and Illegal Immigration. I am against lawlessness. We have the best police in the world. Honestly. Get pulled over in Mexico and have them put you in the back of a police car. Your odds of disappearing are now REAL! I am against a media that constantly allows people to MISSTATE the truth, and fails to help set the record straight. (Trump NEVER Intended that ALL MEXICANS are rapists, etc. He was speaking about Illegals that were coming here, and the people the Mexican Government was glad to see go. But the media glosses over this, and allows a false narrative to live to attack and divide us). Trump is INELEGANT, IMPREFECT and quite Human. So, while I want to scream "we saved our country from some horrible ideas"... I also want to say: Now is the time we must ALL roll up our sleeves and help. We as consumers must CALL OUT the media for being divisive We must call out others for being divisive We must EXPECT that laws should either be changed or enforced, but never ignored! We must come together... Because We The People are all this republic has. I love All Americans. Even the ones with differing political views. I hate only horrible people. Lets treat our government as OLD CODE that need

                  Unfortunately, that's exactly the kind of speech that ISIS leaders make to their people. USA : ISIS -- peas in a pod. Live and let live, for f***'s sake. If your way is the only way, it's the wrong way. Oh, and don't take it personally when people bitch about things. That's what people do.

                        Did you reply to my message. Which part? To you, this is ISIS speak: << Encourage people to start a business. A hair cutting place, a handy man service. Maybe lowes moves in, and starts training inner city people to lay tile, and do repairs. Maybe thousands of unemployed people in a city get together, and start honing their skills fixing the homes in their neighborhood for next to nothing. (By the way, I programmed for FREE to get experience, then got paid A LOT once I had the experience). It beats being angry. >> But when the LEFT in this country says that speaking against global warming should be a felony. That is NOT like ISIS? I see the two as opposites. I am saying don't be angry, be productive. That is ISIS? Or are you saying it is Rhetoric, and a "PUBLIC" position while my "PRIVATE" position is different? I don't care if people complain. I sure do. The squeeky wheel and all. I just REALLY hate ISIS and stamping on peoples freedoms, so I take a little offense to the unquoted statement that I could be making speeches for the likes of ISIS. Either intential or out of ignorance. Not sure what I said that implied my way was the only way. Was suggesting we come together.

                            Your message was fine. The poster-troll who said that to you is always like that. He doesn't even seem to like his own posts. He always says something that is totally incoherent. Watch...he'll reply to this one with something incoherent too... :laugh: Haha, pre-trolled him, I did.

                              Irony. The ISIS comparison is not called for. I strongly suspect that their speeches have just a touch more "we haven't hit our beheading quota for the week" or "you guys have been really enthusiastic about stoning educated women, gays, and Christians since we started child-bride Wednesdays, keep it up!"

                                      Yeah, I see... I was giving an EXAMPLE or set of examples... That was NOT intended to be LITERALLY the list of things. let me summarize differently my intention: Wherever you are at in life, choose what you want to do, and do it. Preferably within in the law, and hopefully with a positive impact on where you live. Is that "Less ISIS" dictation of living according to my values? And if not. PLEASE give me an example of a way to reach those who are far less fortunate TODAY. What message do you send? How do you word it? And please. Try not to let YOUR values influence the message.

                                        When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others. Same thing when you are stupid.

                                          Irony. The ISIS comparison is not called for. I strongly suspect that their speeches have just a touch more "we haven't hit our beheading quota for the week" or "you guys have been really enthusiastic about stoning educated women, gays, and Christians since we started child-bride Wednesdays, keep it up!"

                                          They ardently believe in their way of life, the same as anyone who is even mildly fanatical. Fanaticism of any kind is a bad thing, because one of its main effects is to give people the errant belief that they are better than people who don't share their beliefs -- and saying "Our fanatics are better than Your fanatics!" is just plain dumb. I have yet to see a belief system that convinces me that it is what we were put on this Earth for -- and capitalism comes Incredibly low on the score chart. People exist to dedicate their lives to the pursuit of money? I don't think so.
