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.

Dope1: Of course you didn’t know about it. The media isn’t exactly doing a bang-up job of showing people waving Mexican flags and lighting cars on fire.

The fact that you never said shit about Jan 6ers waving confederate flags -- traitors to the United States -- but now shed crybaby tears over protesters waving Mexican flags tells us all we need to know about you.

And some of those fires were ignited by stun grenades and flash bangs thrown by Trump's brownshirts.

Buddy, you have an uncanny knack for always being on the wrong side of every issue. Maybe you have a comment on Mad King Donald posting on Truth Social about the "Great job by the National Guard in Los Angeles after two days of violence, clashes, and unrest" before the Guard had even set foot in LA.

If Biden made that kind of wacky comment (near midnight), the media would have it as front page news questioning his age and mental competence.

And he also posted that "MASKS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED to be worn at protests."

Everyone knows that masks are only for federal officers with guns rounding up innocents on the streets to send them off to detention camps or foreign gulags, dontchaknow.

BTW, he does not have the authority to ban masks at protests.
