President Donald J. Trump

[albrecht]

I would say  "No hablo inglés."

Since Thanksgiving I decided to grow my for Christmas beard. Since Trump and the Muzzies, Obama's BLMs, the illegals, and Hollywood crap and riots/attacks (and yuppies and hipsters buying up property and moving here) I figured I'd keep it, at least, maybe I can "allahu snackbar" or "no Ingles" or "I know Bill Gates" if confronted by a roving mob and my beard, mine not Obama's Michelle "beard," might hide me, at least for a bit. I've always heard the "gray man" is what you want to be in a crisis or riot. Not stand out, look like others, move silently amongst the group to egress etc.

And now for something completely different: 

I went to a pipe band competition today in which my grandson was participating.  It didn't go so well.
I have always been moved by powerful piping and drumming and for some reason want to go battle stations. When I yelled "Fuck Edward Long Shanks" and then  "Hi diddle diddle we're going straight up the middle" security was summoned.  I have been banned from all such events until all my grandchildren reach adulthood.

This is the picture I took as  they were hauling me off.

You got a steady hand under pressure.  For some reason it reminds me of this character in a 'shit has gone sideways' situation:

If they're Trump supporters they'll probably try to deport me and if they're Hillary supporters they'll probably try to make me their new leader. No, I think I'll stick with my original plan, thanks.

You've been waiting for a chance to use the word "particolored" on Bellgab for years, haven't you. It's alright, I'm still waiting the right opportunity to drop "Noorydactyl".

I've been holding on to "vainglorious" for some time.  Keeping that in my hip-pocket for just the right moment.

Stay on topic. Antidisestablishmentarianism is why we have President Trump.

[zeebo]

To be fair, the choice was between an evil corporate whore willing to take us to the brink of nuclear war to improve her ratings and narcissistic moron. I still think the country made the right choice. 

The analogy I'd use is between a guaranteed, slow decline, and a high-risk possible big win/loss scenario.  Kind of like gambling - you can either play the safe game, 25 cent craps off the Strip, where you get to play longer but for sure will lose eventually - or - you can go uptown, bet your whole friggin stack on one roll and either double-up or cash out.  At least with the latter it's more exciting and you have a chance for a win.

I actually think there will be a little more winning than that but who knows? All NWO forces will now be constantly plotting against Trump. He could send a big message by going after Soros and shutting down all government funding to these NGO groups that were supposed to have corrected the problem but, in fact, made it far, far worse. That's where these "protesters" are getting their funding from. Cut them off at the knees and see if they can still march.

Can we get a source for these statistics, or are we still waiting for them to come in over the subspace from Starfleet, Chica?

Don't be lazy Jack. You can look this up as quickly as I can. But I've got it so here you go.
(From the CDC-2014, for more recent results go to their quarterly reports)

Firearm homicide 10,945
Firearm suicide 21,334

You know Jack, I'm really sorry you used that word.

He's probably mad because I reported that the Alt-Right darling, Milo Yiannopoulos likes to call Trump "Daddy".

[Zetaspeak]

wow those suicide numbers are so high. There's always a debate if the news should  report it. I think because most don't  the general  public  have no clue how bad it is

Everyone knows that Milo calls our president "daddy". It's not a secret.

It's because if it were reported it would weaken the anti-gun narrative. 

[Lt.Uhura]

This is true, it's underreported. Probably because as soon as the discussion starts, the ugly gun debate starts up and the issue is swept back under the rug.

Just be happy you weren't the Ingrids, Annas, Astas, and Marits trapped with those guys in some cabin over the long winter! Not be a racist but it is interesting that the "strongest man" type of competitions it did seem to be the Nordic/ Germanic types (Danes, Dutch, German, N.France, Swedes, Norskies, Dutch, etc) but, in modern sports, the more elite athletes (except, again, in 'strongman' roles like linemen) often seem to be African (there are many economic and other issues here, obviously.) But like Jimmy the Greek said. I guess speed and agility was more of an African thing evolution-wise. Where man-handling and throwing stuff or brute, but slower, force was a more northern necessity evolution-thing? There was a German-ancestry gal that worked (years ago) at a dancehall that used to throw kegs around like nobody's business. Replace them like nothing when emptied. I'm guess it is savanna running versus clearing rocks from crappy land and cutting/hauling logs for the long winters.

Considering the recent news on Neanderthal DNA, this is a strong possibility, whether by interbreeding or convergent evolution.

I see. Hmm...so that's why he's so chilly with poor Melania.

I heard someone sneezed the other day and he didn't even say Bless you or anything. The man is clearly a monster!  :

[pyewacket]

Too bad white men can't jump worth a damn.

Who says they can't?  You have to if you want to dance the 'Gopak'. I suspect this dance evolved when the men tried to out do each other.

[pyewacket]

I will second that.

Third.

[21st Century Man]

Nah! Every once in awhile you get a bad one...then you're stuck. A republic is really the best system yet.

Precisely.  I have yet to see anything better come to pass than what the founders envisioned 230 years ago.

[21st Century Man]

This does not seem like it could possibly be a plausible statement, but then again, I never believed they'd put a nigger woman on the bridge.

WTF!  You been smoking something, Jack?  You should be ashamed of yourself.

[PaulAtreides]

Here is the 2016 electoral vote for president by county.

The Blue sections also show where nearly all gun crime takes place.

Meaningless as the counties are not adjusted for population size.  Typical right wing gun nut misuse of statistics.

I can do that!

Yeah it's kind of a craps shoot isn't it.  However, anything's better than the status quo anti.

Everybody has a little Neanderthal in them.  I myself can pick up a dime off the floor without bending over.

For those already pining for Obama here's a nice little review.

It's definitely a choreographed penis size competition.  It started during halftime at a Super Bowl party.

[PB the Deplorable]

Meaningless as the counties are not adjusted for population size...

What does that have to do with anything?

The blue dots are our big cities where most gun crimes take place.  The blue splotches along the southern border and into AZ and CA are the areas our citizens are most at risk from the cartels and other violence from across the border.

You don't say that IRL? I do. If you know me for any length of time, you're gonna get called a nigger, and worse. It's one of my favorite words.

I get the counter-argument. I don't really want to hurt anybody's feelings. But ethnic humor is friggin hilarious!

I haven't laughed this hard since they shot Harambe.

Yeah there's ethnic humor and there's ass hole humor.  There's no censorship here and no political correctness so carry on.  Use of that word does tell me something about you though.  Question:  how do you know you don't hurt people's feelings?
