    You asked, I answered. That you don't like the answer was predictable. Has anyone noticed a pattern here? You seem to ask questions just to attack the answers, without offering any...

    Once again, this is a short-form forum. I have to edit. Here's the thing I agree that the harassment of indigenous people by ICE is not, by itself, proof of anything. It IS a data point which, in...

    Hey, if you want to disregard historical context, that's your privilege. If you want to play dueling citations, go to a library. You asked me to explain my thinking. I answered as best I could in a...

    Texas Abortion Law

    heron replied to Charlcie's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    It just occurred to me to ask, given by whom? A court? If a woman is forced to carry to term by court order, how is that different from slavery? If that "say" is given by the woman, herself,...

    Then there's the indigenous people who have been picked up. I have read estimates of between 15 and 45 Navajo are being detained. They are'nt the only nation being hit, I would bet. What this...

    Trump's DERP State

    heron replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    It's all about the freedom to be as hateful, dishonest, mean-spirited and destructive as they want while being shielded from the consequences of their own behavior. Magadonians chose their leadership...

    Hmph - leave it to trump to wrap his enemies list in a religion he doesn't even follow or believe in.” Non sequitur of the day: Easter is named after Eostre, an Anglo Saxon goddess and is the...

    What would it have taken to make American Millennials "Entirely Left Wing"?

    Wonderful, isn't it? Combine it with Duckspeak and you've pretty much described most political discourse these days. Some days all you can do is laugh and keep

    What would it have taken to make American Millennials "Entirely Left Wing"?

    heron replied to RitzyCinnamonRoll's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I personally don't think that the behavior described in the OP's citation has anything to do with left vs. right. Nor do I agree that making all millennials into left-wingers is anything to be...
