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.

it's almost always incorrect to impute to your political opponent a desire for the negative consequences. Like saying that Democrats are big fans of crime.

Great. I look forward to reading lots of posts asking other board posters to stop attacking the right wing like this.

And you kept refusing to accept that's what we believe.

No and no.
I told you I disagreed with what the left believes. Personal attacks also followed.

If those policies end up resulting in an increase in crime, it is not the case that the Democrats want the increase in crime. They want the benefits of those policies. They're not "fans" of crime.

Uh, huh.
The issue is the left always refuses to accept the consequences of its actions…and never traces the results of its policies to their root causes.
