Sorry for joining late but am I to take it that you disagree?

How would you describe masked ice agents pulling people off the street and deporting them without due process?

Y'all be careful. A Michigian big-wig has endorsed Mamdani. He said, and I quote....

Now do Unrestrained Capitalism.

Altruism is helping withoutexpecting anything in return, like contributions of time and money by charitable citizens and neighbors. Certainly anonymous givers expect nothing. Charitable giving is fantastic in America. So we get you on that point. And we definitely teach charity to those very babies, like having them deliver the thanksgiving turkeys to the poor, or simply putting part of of their allowance into the collection on Sunday and serving the poor lunch lines.
One cannot expect a person in the Natural State of freedom to surrender that status on the off-chance that private charity might be available if he desperately needs it due to misfortune or systemic economic vagaries. This is especially true in a mature capitalist system where every single piece of land is owned and forbidden for him to live on or even gather a coconut on without the owner's permission.

So the majority have chosen to create social welfare systems which are funded by tax rates set by the People's elected representatives. They're nothing unjust about that.

Masks are worn by both the hunted and hunters in this case. For the same reasons....their safety. Remember, you are the people who stormed the homes of Supreme Court Justices, threatening them, together with Schumer..."You Will Pay!!!".Total threats. So, the ICE guys have families, and as your party is given to violence **, they are protecting their families. I see no need to elaborate, I am sure you get what I am saying. Your picture avatar shows a seemingly extreeemely smart person.

**Violence. Teh riots, the statues the George Floyd, people beign killed. Wd did have one uproar on Jan 6, windows broken, law breaking no question. The one person killed was a girl who thought she was partying, and the gun was that of an officer. YOu can hardly compare that uprising for 5 hours to what in the hell y'all do every day in teh black of night. Giuve it up, you got nuthin.
Recall you are the people who compare a rapist impeached Clinton, for perjury and Monica activities. Sex fiend, and rapist of jennifer Flowers (bit lip) and the girl he paid off $750K to avoid charges. Trump? Journal entries which hurt no one. His girl stuff was his personal life. I am only referencing your conflicts, I aiint THNKIN about writing Sonhouse subjects!!
YOu never got nuthin. 😕 Or, that is, you do got nuthin.

Surrender his status?? In the United States of America? We certainly stipulate that our govt should take care of the 50M people truly in need. So setting those folks aside to be supported by entitlements and charitable concerns, we see almost 300M people who can support themselves in this society.
Further, everyone is subject to misfortune and economic vagaries, and would plan for such matters. If someone has 5 children on a $30K income, that is not planning. We are not talking about him, and he indeed would have the aforementioned entitlements.
Yes, land is owned privately, You might not be allowed on my property. I may have my coconuts, and take them to the charity of my choice. Libs do not like the word choice. But I refer you to Mamdani, who says we should not own land. Do you think that I should not own land? That, Ritz Carlton should own a hotel?


The two previous posts are so offensively full of BS, it’s hard to point out what the core of stupidity in them is.

Little joe has T.P.S. Trump Pedophile Syndrome. I think most of MAGA are Pedophiles; just as their worthless false god Humpty Trumpty.

Shav, can you answer this. I think my answers from Zahlanzi are a ‘bit’ lacking.
My granny has to have car fixed, new motor. If we were in the World of Mamdani, where would she get it fixed and how would it be paid for?

Day drinkin', mostly. But early even for him! 😆

But doing away with due process, you're fine with that?

She’d go to a garage and pay for the mechanic to repair it.

Oh Joe, if your granny lived in the world of Mamdani, why would she even have a car in the first place, considering the scarcity and cost of parking spots in NYC?

But if you were thinking granny lived among the cold-hearted, non-communicative, socially atomized creatures of the American midwest, why wouldn't her neighbors just kill her and feast upon her and her property for spare parts?

? The masks, little feller. Not due process. The masks were the question, I answered it. Safety for both parties. Hey y'all keep askijg why ICE wears masks. Ask us , or you, why your street people wear masks.

The garage owned by whom?

The people who work there, I would presume.
