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.

Gee, I only remember one crybaby, who inflamed violence, because he didn't get his way, and it wasn't in 24.

Even Nixon went away peacefully.


I remember my city (I live in Seattle) having part of it get taken over by leftist thugs for weeks.
I remember burning police cars, smashed windows and destroyed businesses. I remember a thriving downtown core that was turned into a boarded-up wasteland in <6 months. (And still hasn't recovered, btw).
I remember left wing rioters bashing homeowners over the head and sending them to the hospital for the crime of asking them to keep the noise down.
I remember left wing rioters taking over freeways and trapping people in their cars.
I remember having to sneak out of the house in the dead of night and paint over Antifa graffiti to send a message, "not in my neighborhood, a$$holes". And then doing...other things...to disrupt their riots in my 'hood.

I remember being trapped in a restaurant while they rampaged down the street while we were eating, them placing their guards at the door to intimidate the patrons.

I know the left. I know what it's capable of. Those folks in Seattle? Freaking terrorists, one and all.

It's only by the Grace of God that these people haven't Found Out writ large after all the Fvcking Around they've been doing for years. They've not Found Out yet because this is the greatest country on the planet and we don't have the kind of anarchy the left promotes.
