Due to the cities idiocy we are now being forced to move from our home. If anyone can help us we need it desperately. We are both disabled living on fixed incomes and looking for a small 1/2 bedroom home with fenced in yard for our puppies. Yes we have four legged children who are small and as much a part of our lives as our children were. $450 to $500 is our limit. We aren’t looking for something fancy just livable and comfortable and who will allow our dogs to be with us without trying to break the bank. There are seven old chuauaus who came to us over the years and who are slowly dying off surrounded by love and caring. So far everyplace we have looked is ultra expensive and are not understanding of the love and need we have for our pups. If there is anyone out the that might be able to help us please let me know soonest.

The only “problem” with removing Congressidiot Omar is that the district that elected her (3-to-1 against the Republican) might send someone even loonier in her place.
As she is, she provides plenty of reasons to rally against other Demoncraps — “see what the DNC spawns!”

Except for the guy in the upper center of the photo who is holding his pistol sideways while muzzling the other guy in the white shirt.
Then there’s the guy in the white shirt — who taught him that shooting stance?!

We heard this in 2016, and then come 2018 and 2019, we got the bump stock ban (never really wanted one til he banned them, and it gives F-Troop way, way more leeway to harass us) and then there was “I like taking the guns early . . . . take the guns first, go through due process second.” [1]

Just when you thought there was no one left to advocate for the former Soviet Union —

No, that wasn’t posted by some 90-year-old veteran of the Great Patriotic War.
That picture of “Captain USSR” was most likely posted by an American twentysomething or thirtysomething, and then was “re-tweeted” by another American thirtysomething, one Matt Kuehnel, who had previously fronted for the “Libertarian Socialist Caucus” in the Libertarian Party.
No, I’m NOT making any of this up.

I just looked at the thread that Knox was being a bitch-boi about, and am probably too sober to see any humor in the original post.

In today’s morning edition of the Albuquerque Journal, there’s a supplement titled “Speak Up, Speak Out, Make a Difference.”
Pages 10 and 11 of that supplement are labeled “Gun Reform.”
Page 10 reprints two editorials where the Journal’s editorial board called for “common-sense” victim disarmament statutes.
Page 11 reprints letters to the editor from 3 April 2018, in two of which the writers called for more victim disarmament statutes.
On the right side of page 11, there’s a sidebar labeled “The Results,” which listed the passage and signing of SB 8 (“universal background checks”) and SB 328 (“outlawing domestic abusers from owning firearms”).
If the Journal’s editorial board is content to be cheerleaders for the Soros, Bloomberg et al victim disarmament industry, why should gun owners remain on its subscriber rolls?

Jamie Fraser-Paige — “anti-gun bigot Trump” as in bigoted against gun owners. Which Trump was up until he decided to run for President as a Republican.

When Democrats say “bipartisan,” it’s code-speak for “there’s Republicans that agree with us, so they’re OK for the moment.” Divide and conquer, in other words.

Also consider writing to the Journal’s advertisers to let them why you’re not a reader and thus not seeing their adverts.

Back in the 1990s, a few of us Old Drunken Old Irrvelivent types were talking about potential skits for our public-access television presence (The Weekly Sedition, New Mexico’s Consumer Advocate, etc.).
One of the ideas that I came up with was to have two people sitting side by side at a table or desk, wearing black BDU-type shirts, black balaclava-type face masks, and black K-pot-type helmets. Something like this (minus the embroidery, web gear, weapons and chest plate) —

On the front of one of the helmets, there would be painted a rather conspicuous donkey. On the other, an elephant.
While sitting there on camera, our two TV stars would crack jokes and reminisce about how much fun it was to go after church groups, people wanting to be left alone, gun show promoters, and other “undesirables,” using lethal force, explosives, armored vehicles, and airstrikes, etc.
Such a skit might be considered “tasteless” (especially by the “You can’t say that!” crowd), but seriously, folks? How can signing off on such behavior, even implicitly, in the most roundabout fashion, be considered “tasteful” ?
