1BadNana Can't Take Much More!

[1BadNana]

I get that I'm likely considered very liberal and more of a socialist than a capitalist at my core, but.....PLEASE TELL ME AMERICA, WHEN WILL ENOUGH BE ENOUGH? Donald Trump and his "Reality TV Presidency" have crossed over every possible line of acceptable, morale, legal, and constitutional behavior! Enough MUST BE Enough! Americans better wake up and cancel the shit show running this Country. Let's be honest here.....the U.S. has been circling the bowl for years, DT has put us on "permanent" flush and we are going down!

I'm a 53 year old Grandmother of 9. I was born in the Central Valley of CA and have been raised and now live in Northern CA. I'm a CA woman through and through. I genuinely fear for my future, my childrens' future, my Grandchildrens' future, and the future of us all. Just when I think things can't get much worse, they do. We work our asses off everyday just to put a roof over our heads and food on the table. Forget about vacations, a respectable vehicle, etc. I love being an American. I love this Country with my entire heart, soul, and mind. I just don't understand what's happened to our society. I know it's broken. Can it be fixed?

Usually an introduction is just that, an introduction.
Typically the rants come on another thread.
Welcome anyway...
Looks like you need a hug from creepy greeter guy...

 

[MarathonMike]

Trump hasn't done a damn thing negative that deserves the type of treatment he has gotten. His only fault is that he isn't a socialist/commie. Ignorant people are easily led by pretty lies, easy promises paid off of the backs of others and shun the ugly truth. The leftists have been carrying water and doing the dirty work of the very elites that they claim to be against. It's almost a tragic comedy. I have been in Califlakia for the past two weeks for work and this state is a fucking joke. They milk every single dime that they can get out of their sheeple. Gas is almost twice as high per gallon as it is in Dallas, Texas. They are proposing doing away with straws????? Wants Califlakia to be a sanctuary state? Wants illegals to be able to vote and receive medi-care and medicaid? You have been indoctrinated into the cult of communist globalism. I hope that you are not living in part of Califlakia that coincides with the U.N Agenda 21 plan or your community will be targeted for a D.E.W (direct energy weapon) attack to drive you off of your property like those in Paradise and other cities that stand in the way of Agenda 21. Do these look like "forest fires gone amok" to you?

Here's the thing....everyone is entitled to his or her opinion. We lost almost everything we had on our 10 acres in Concow during the Camp Fire. It was a family vacation campground type place but we still lost at least $75,000 in toys, trailers, heavy equipment, etc. that we couldn't have insured even if we wanted to. We were very aware of the threat of fire and took measures each year to maintain defensible space, mitigate potential damage by clearing out brush and removing dead trees. In the end, it didn't make much of a difference. I personally know 5 of the people who died in the fire, I know at least 25 families who lost their homes, all their possessions, and in some instances their pets in the fire. Everyone wants to play the blame game. There is plenty of blame to go around. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. There are tens of thousands of people who live all along the Gulf Coast and are almost guaranteed to be impacted in some way by hurricanes every single year. Many, many of these people's homes have been damaged and rebuilt on the taxpayer's dime time and again. The likelihood of their homes being damaged again in the future is very high since they live in the direct path of hurricanes. Why is their situation any different than people who choose to live in the vicinity of a National Forest? If you don't live near Paradise or have first hand knowledge of the terrain in the area, I suggest you do some research. I'm not saying the homeowners don't have some responsibility for what happened. I'm saying there's a price to be paid for living in such close proximity to an area that has been neglected and mismanaged by the local, State and Federal governments and PG&E for many years.

Does this look normal to you as it pertains to the fire in Paradise....it's a very simple question.......

That was just Dale. Don't worry about him. He's our resident conspiracy theory king. He's harmless, but if he bothers you, just yell "CHEM TRAILS!!!" and he'll put on his tinfoil hat and run for the compound. Problem solved. Welcome to the island of misfit toys.

I hope that you are not living in part of Califlakia that coincides with the U.N Agenda 21 plan or your community will be targeted for a D.E.W (direct energy weapon) attack to drive you off of your property like those in Paradise and other cities that stand in the way of Agenda 21. Do these look like "forest fires gone amok" to you?

I get that I'm likely considered very liberal and more of a socialist than a capitalist at my core, but.....PLEASE TELL ME AMERICA, WHEN WILL ENOUGH BE ENOUGH? Donald Trump and his "Reality TV Presidency" have crossed over every possible line of acceptable, morale, legal, and constitutional behavior! Enough MUST BE Enough! Americans better wake up and cancel the shit show running this Country. Let's be honest here.....the U.S. has been circling the bowl for years, DT has put us on "permanent" flush and we are going down!

I'm a 53 year old Grandmother of 9. I was born in the Central Valley of CA and have been raised and now live in Northern CA. I'm a CA woman through and through. I genuinely fear for my future, my childrens' future, my Grandchildrens' future, and the future of us all. Just when I think things can't get much worse, they do. We work our asses off everyday just to put a roof over our heads and food on the table. Forget about vacations, a respectable vehicle, etc. I love being an American. I love this Country with my entire heart, soul, and mind. I just don't understand what's happened to our society. I know it's broken. Can it be fixed?

Trump hasn't done a damn thing negative that deserves the type of treatment he has gotten. His only fault is that he isn't a socialist/commie. Ignorant people are easily led by pretty lies, easy promises paid off of the backs of others and shun the ugly truth. The leftists have been carrying water and doing the dirty work of the very elites that they claim to be against. It's almost a tragic comedy. I have been in Califlakia for the past two weeks for work and this state is a fucking joke. They milk every single dime that they can get out of their sheeple.

Here's the thing....everyone is entitled to his or her opinion. We lost almost everything we had on our 10 acres in Concow during the Camp Fire. It was a family vacation campground type place but we still lost at least $75,000 in toys, trailers, heavy equipment, etc. that we couldn't have insured even if we wanted to. We were very aware of the threat of fire and took measures each year to maintain defensible space, mitigate potential damage by clearing out brush and removing dead trees. In the end, it didn't make much of a difference. I personally know 5 of the people who died in the fire, I know at least 25 families who lost their homes, all their possessions, and in some instances their pets in the fire. Everyone wants to play the blame game. There is plenty of blame to go around. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. There are tens of thousands of people who live all along the Gulf Coast and are almost guaranteed to be impacted in some way by hurricanes every single year. Many, many of these people's homes have been damaged and rebuilt on the taxpayer's dime time and again. The likelihood of their homes being damaged again in the future is very high since they live in the direct path of hurricanes. Why is their situation any different than people who choose to live in the vicinity of a National Forest? If you don't live near Paradise or have first hand knowledge of the terrain in the area, I suggest you do some research. I'm not saying the homeowners don't have some responsibility for what happened. I'm saying there's a price to be paid for living in such close proximity to an area that has been neglected and mismanaged by the local, State and Federal governments and PG&E for many years.

That was just Dale. Don't worry about him. He's our resident conspiracy theory king. He's harmless, but if he bothers you, just yell "CHEM TRAILS!!!" and he'll put on his tinfoil hat and run for the compound. Problem solved. Welcome to the island of misfit toys.

I have never ran from a leftard.....and especially those like you, Bulldog.....you are one of my cyber bitches.

So sad for your losses,1BadNana. My heart goes out to you for your loss of 5 friends and your 25 neighbors who lost all. Prayers up.

Arguably, society never worked better. That can be taken as saying it has always been "broken", but that would be a misinterpretation of language.
There have always been changes that needed to be dealt with and weren't, or were poorly addressed. What we need most today is awareness, and application, of what we have learned. That would be intelligent.

Welcome, Nana. Unplug the tv for a week or two and have a sweet Christmas with your grandbabies. They are what count, not Donald Trump, that gross piece of shit.
With that said, I think you'll fit right in here, as long as you don't mind getting called stuff a lot. Have a donut and stay awhile!

Curse you! I was already fighting the urge to donut shop.

Donuts or beer..that's what's for breakfast.
