Prepared to politely but firmly tell him I was not interested, he handed me a flyer and announced he represented the Democratic Socialists of America and was handing out information on the organization and what they believe in. Less friendly, I told him I wasn't interested, goodbye ... but he insisted on having me hear him out. Told him again I was not interested. He then said, "You must be a Trump supporter". Blew my cork. Told him to shove his socialism up his ass and get the **** off my property. Then, later in the day I saw a town cop had pulled him over not far from where we live. Later, I heard that the police had stopped him after receiving several complaints by others about him harassing people in the neighborhood. He called you out for what you are...a Trump supporter. What's the big deal? BTW, what do "Democratic Socialists" believe in? :) -- Posted with my iPad Pro The big deal is the asshole was tresspassing and trying to jam his beliefs down peoples throats. You probably would have shot him. No, ****-for-brains, I don't consider people, even religious charlatans, who knock on the door or ring the doorbell as "trespassers." Our street, even out to the state road, doesn't have many houses, and we don't often get canvassers of any stripe. It's mostly the rural mail delivery folks who ring the doorbell. If they have a parcel too big for the community mail box kiosk down the street, they leave it on the front porch and ring the doorbell. I suspect you don't get much of that, eh, what with the "Quarantined" sign poked into your front lawn. No one wants your airborne herpes. Why tbe shotgun behind your front door then? And the regular complaints of proselytizing by people trying to jam religion down his throat? Now he says he doesn't often get canvassers "of any stripe". Dishonesty raises it's ugly head again. Must be a progressive-liberal thing. I never claimed we got a lot of door knockers, and it's been a while since we had any religious nuts recruiting, though I did see a pair on bicycles and wearing white shirts and ties a few weeks ago ringing doorbells. I assumed they were Mormons. You should consider stopping your channeling of Justan, your moron buddy. Why would anyone take your advice? You don't seem to have anything going for you. -- x ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ |

It doesn't happen here, and now you tell us it doesn't happen there. So why all the whining? He never seems to venture far from here or there, so the cramming must be happening there if it's not happening here. Maybe he's ingesting furballs from all those cats. -- x ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ |

That more aptly describes Trump, his family, and his appointees. How is that? Oh, special deals on condos, isolation phone booths, promotion and hotel rentals at Trump hotel in DC, promotion of Mar-a-Lago, overseas deals...don't you read the news? I am not a big fan of corporate welfare. I will say everyone in these targeted businesses get them tho and they always pass congress with wide bipartisan support. I do think Trump should be comping the government the use of his resorts when he is visiting. He certainly should not be recovering more than the actual cost. I said from day one that hotel in DC was troubling. The beef I have always agreed with was the conflicts of interest. It is the problem you have when you put a person with businesses into the White House but it is not a new problem. George Washington had serious conflicts of interest. It is quite possible that Washington walked away from the presidency because his business had advanced to the point that these conflicts may have become troubling to his critics. I have a big problem with lots of corporate welfare. Elon and Tesla getting 5 or so years of no property tax to put a battery plant in Nevada. How about small business that are already there? They and the rest of the people do not get a tax holiday. I have a friend I grew up with that has a manufacturing business in a small town south of Reno. Where was his tax exemption? He employs a bunch of people. How about Resnick, billionaire supporter of the Liberal wing of the Democrats. Gets subsidized water for his farms in the westlands Water District. Seems he has secondary water rights, but has finagled it in to primary rights. Pays about $9 an acre foot, which costs $60-70 an acre foot to deliver. Then they resell some of that water for $300+ an acre foot to he cities. |

In East Germany, after WWII, the Communist Party of Germany (KPD) and the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) merged to become the Socialist Unity Party of Germany (SED). Then...... they all actually did hate Nazis.... seems like everybody needs somebody to hate. Huh? |
