- CountessRobini said Yup. Thanks Haiti for terrific article.
- CC1s121LrBGT said He also rounded up some American citizens by race and concentrated them into camps. He was the master of “Intersectionality”.
- CountessRobini said Dear Jersey Devil. You are welcome. It was our duty to stand up. We had planned to go to the Trump rally (I was so hoping I could maneuver my way into the press area and talk to some of the people co...

- Fred Stiening said So Mr Harris did win by a little under 2,000 votes. The pattern was very interesting. Absentee and early voting skewed heavily toward Mr McCready, the Democrat who lost. As I suggested, Union Cou...
- Fred Stiening said By that definition, FDR was a fascist, too – but we tolerated it because we had a war to fight. FDR installed censorship in Hollywood, hired Hollywood to produce propoganda, directed private co...

- TheChairman said Notice the immediate belligerence by the left, the day after the election. It doesn’t matter if they lose or win, the liberals want to agitate and terrorize.
- TheChairman said Hey Parrott. Yeah, the irony is John James (black conservative) lost mostly in the Detroit/Lansing areas. We voted for him, as did most of northern Michigan. It seems the ‘racists’ are on...

- TheChairman said Vaguely. I lived in AZ from 1985 on, and didn’t return to MI until 2009. I do recall the Michigan Militia making the news on a few occasions. Of course, AZ had border militia making news as we...
- Fred Stiening said And the name of the state was spelled incorrectly on the return address. The Seminole tribe were pretty successful at defending their home territory from European colonizers.
- Fred Stiening said Remember the Hutaree?
