The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

You lose some credibility when you do this.


So how about they spend time planning a parade for Donald where they can pin a medal on him? Or how about they spend their time planning and building the wall, or making detention centers? Maybe we could train them how to arrest people crossing the border? Maybe we could teach them all about flying into Latin American countries airports?

Convince me that those are worthwhile.

So how long do you think it takes to choose a poster, hang it on the bulletin board, and for Sarge or a Butterbar to give a leetle speech?

I would rather they arrest Jan 6ers, take them to Death Valley, and tell them if they make it across the desert, they're pardoned and then shoot in the air to get them moving. We film it and run the event on Netflix.
