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.

Yes. Loony speculations and false accusations are a way of life with the left.

There is a lot of precedent. The Chinese Exclusion Act (yeah, Congress passed an actual law) of the late 1800s. The Irish (white folks!) certainly weren't welcomed initially. Emancipated black people faced lots of violence, and when they were successful they were slaughtered (see the Tulsa massacre in the early 1900s). Jews on the SS St Louis were turned away from US shores (only to end up in extermination camps). Native Americans ('nuff said). Now it's the Latino's turn, apparently.

There are probably more examples. Those are just the ones I know about off the top of my head.

USA USA USA! :-(
