Majority of americans want dems to work with an administration that has 0 interest in compromising on anything. (at least if anyone's paying attention to CPAC, that's basically what bannon said) WAAF

Yeah, no one's ever complained about those first two ever and we should just gladly give away more freedoms constantly because of it.

What is an ID check after a flight going to do, exactly?

If you can't differentiate between the three of these, you are definitely a moron.

Sew,

If they checked ids to get on the plane why do they need to check them coming off?

Are people hiding for free airplane rides? Are invisible jets dropping people off and swapping them out mid flight?

At least provide a reason why they might need to do this.

Don't just be a blind apologist for everything.

If you aren't turbo-igoring Tsao I really don't know what to tell you.

By the way I don't know if trump knows this but many professional golfers are rich.

Heck tony Romo is rich and he is a scratch golfer.

(Am I "sew"?)

We must stop this invasion of privacy!! Freedom is NOW at stake.


Again, me criticizing you does not mean I agree with whatever the government did here (honestly, I'm guessing they were looking for a specific passenger....but what do I know), but WOW it is SO good watching you guys.

Meanwhile, as libertarian activists were refusing to show their IDs at the border, were protesting the security theater of the full body scanners, for years. But now one flight has IDs checked on exit, and freedom is starting to trend down.

So good.

I've found myself making the mistake of dismissing lots of Trumps bull**** because it's such transparently offensive nonsense. Like, in my brain I kind of checked off gay people as needing help anymore. Everyone I interact with agrees with me on the issue, and I forgot how many asshats there are out there who are completely on board with discriminating against them. Similarly, the concept of blatant racism is so ridiculous to me, so obviously wrong, that I've let my guard down. Subconsciously I think "no way they will actually do THAT!" I guess I'm trying to say that just because some of this **** from Trump is obviously reprehensible, it's not guaranteed to be stopped simply on account of being terrible and doing immense harm to real people.
02-23-2017 , 03:41 PM
Please show where anyone was cheering those other things. You are just making stuff up.

Not caring about this stuff is why trump won. How dare you enable his win.

you are just a terrible troll and you know it.
what makes you think that people are saying this fact is = to freedom is starting to trend down?
you read this thread and the news a lot(at least you post a lot maybe you dont read cause you just troll) so you cannot say this fact is the 1st time ever you hear :freedom is starting to trend down , regarding all events since trump got elected.

I mean you can say it but it would be really dishonnest,non sincere (try to convince us).

Maybe you are

Even though Tsao is a terrible poster and clearly deserves this fate, I almost feel bad for him to live in such a disturbing fantasy world where these are the beliefs liberals apparently hold. How terrifying must everyday life be for someone who believes this stuff?
02-23-2017 , 03:59 PM
Remember those times when CPAC was a fun little sideshow of fringe idiots who would never gain any actual power?

Good times.

Oh my god. This is an all-time great post. I want to weep at its beauty.

Hey! Some people, like me for instance, lose their ID between checking in for a flight (Logan) and reaching their destination (Tucson International). True story. Surely I'd be deported to a 3rd world country (Mexico) because of that, right?

Didn't the body scanners have like an 80% approval rating?

You guys might be right, maybe this forum was against them. I looked back a bit at that old thread, and it was mostly Dvaut/Fly/Wookie criticizing the body-scan-critics for not being consistently pro 4th amendment instead of criticizing the policy. Hmm wonder who I learned this ****ty attitude from.

Betsy DeVos opened her CPAC remarks by bragging about having told Bernie Sanders that there's no such thing as a free lunch.

In case anyone has forgotten, Betsy DeVos is the same woman who inherited billions of dollars, married into more billions of dollars, never worked a day in her life, and was appointed to a Cabinet position after her family donated millions to the GOP.

It's amazing that the guillotines aren't already being built.

A dude on the NSC got on stage, said he planned to destroy the (administrative) state and got cheers.

I didn't understand most of this, but mostly I did not read this thread except the last few pages. Sorry, but it's a long thread and I just got here.

I know I'm not really helping by being annoying. I think it's going to take some time before I'm willing to accept liberals being critical of the executive again. I really am actually thrilled to see it, but the petty side of me is currently winning. Sorry to let you down Weeeez.
