I think Trump is making good appointments. People should base their judgement on their own individual merits and not who likes them or doesn't like them. This is the first time in my life that I actually am proud of the president. We have had a string of really bad US presidents and Trump is a breath of fresh air.

Personally I'd say he's less of a breath of fresh air and more of a nice squirt of sulphur dioxide

The Irony.

I was in LA
in 2001 June
outside the studio
I asked a Fella walking past
what he thought
of GW Bush
he said "he liked him"

Of course later that year was 9/11
it all changed in USA
never the same


sorry for those that read this on another thread.

Frankie Boyle's already done that

Youtube video

[arista]

Jack was this on already? was it BBC4 or BBC2?

[Jack_]

It's an iPlayer exclusive (as his other Election Autopsies have been) but I think it's on BBC2 at the weekend?

It's a good watch anyway

[arista]

Yes I get it
Edited version BBC2HD Sunday 10:30PM 20/11/16
a thread needs to be made if you have time.

I will record that

It is long overdue for the 'Freedom of Speech' laws in America to be amended, to allow this vile, totally evil and anachronistic organisation to be outlawed.

There should also be new laws drafted which allow the US Law Courts to impose the most severe punishments for anyone convicted of being a member of the KKK, or of peddling its warped ideology in public - including the Crusader 'newspaper' - starting with a mandatory short jail sentence for the most minor offences, with the length of sentence increasing accordingly for the more grave or repeat offences.

Just as with Nazi ideology, there really is NO place in a modern, civilised, and enlightened society for such an evil belief system, and there is just no valid reason for any modern, civilised and enlightened society to TOLERATE it or its devotees.

The mere fact that this organisation is still PERMITTED to LAWFULLY exist, is a disgusting insult to the Black community and other races, and all those non-blacks who believe in, and have fought for Racial Equality.

And, while ever it is permitted to exist, demented White Supremacist scum such as David Duke will continue to promote his evil organisation by exploiting the media to gain free publicity.

If a Law is not GOOD law, then it is a Law in need of amending.

I think this is what the hate crime laws were meant to address. Though much of that even generally happens online... which seems difficult to prosecute in the US unless certain motive can be proven... and as we know, very hard to prove motive online, with the stealthiest of trolls.

I'm not sure how these groups still exist... I guess unless the entire org declares war on a protected group, the govt won't act on it... and really what would they accomplish. They can just as easily go silent and seek out the far out vestiges of the internets to make their voices heard... at least we know for sure what they stand for...

So? lots of things dominate the news, doesn't mean I have to give them all my full attention, so no Kizzy it's NOT been NOT impossible to follow, I was turned off by the campaign in all honesty by both candidates :/

"I was turned off by the campaign in all honesty by both candidates :/ "


Yes Cherie
I hit the Mute
unless it was something New.


The Clinton Woman turned into a Witch

Trump was more relaxed.

I am Glad Trump is going to stay for 8 years
that way more Local folks can get Jobs again.

Don't worry Cherie, it may have dominated the media, but there are lots of individuals around who profess to be aware of that fact and to have given all the coverage their attenton, who are still clueless.
