Choosing a man like Trump as president shows that America no longer has the greatness it idealizes about itself.

So glad they stopped it. We went to Office Depot for my granddaughter's school supplies. I hate Wal-Mart, to me it's a ND person's nightmare. But, my granddaughter is Puerto Rican and you just never know what people consider worth shooting at or not shooting at anymore.

What an idiot. Just walked around inside a Wal-Mart with un-drawn weapons as a prank? He is lucky he did not get gunned down. Or maybe that is what he wanted, suicide by cops.

Bet they have to put him in an isolation cell.Everyone shops at Walmart here so the other boys in jail will be thinking of their family at the store.His life would be in serious danger.

Lets just say that America wanted to return "back to the future" by voting in a man that reflects the values of the old America where "greed is good", "poor people are poor because they are losers" and "America is for the white man".

That pretty much sums up Trump's values to a tee....

The US is a Capitalist nation, it always has been. There's nothing old/new about that, it's the present. It was the dream of freedom and the only way to truly have freedom is to make your own way. If we rely on the government or our neighbor for survival, we are in debt for the most basic of needs. Is that appealing to you? Because it's in no way appealing to me.

The US is for the motivated man, no matter what color. If you refuse to be beaten, the US is for you. But, you must apply. There are a subset of the people of color who are mad as hell about the corners being cut in the liberal attempt to circumvent the immigration system.

I think that you think you speak for all people of color, all poor people, etc... But, you don't. And the media only interviews people who will stick to a liberal, 'woe is me' script.

I do understand the western neo-liberal economies go through stages of big government spending under pro-labour parties then stages of economic conservatism under conservative governments.

It's crazy to expect keeping a conservative government in power for long periods will lead to economic benefit because it doesn't. The last major GFC occured in 1987 straight after long periods of conservative government under Margaret Thatcher in Britain, Helmut Kohl in Germany and Ronald Reagan in the US. The level of unemployment in that period was staggering, it was like 1929 again (the great stock market crash in 1929 is an example of what happens when you allow lassaiz faire economics to run anabated).

Workers rights and welfare would be absent without left wing governments. The benefits of free market always benefited a the "small subset" which you were referring to. Universal welfare bought equality and balance.

I also wonder how much the wealthy really care about America? they rarely invest locally, they invest in offshore ventures ewxploiting cheap third world labour, get tax cuts which they spend on themsleves on foreign holidays and foreign luxury goods.

I doubt the top 10% of the wealthiest americans have anything "Made in America" in their homes. Even Trump's wives are foreign :lol:

FBI arrests Las Vegas man who allegedly wanted to shoot Jews, LGBTQ bar patrons

Quote:
A 23-year-old Las Vegas man who allegedly wanted to attack Jews and patrons of an LGBTQ bar was arrested on suspicion of possessing parts to make a bomb, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Nevada said Friday.

Conor Climo, who was arrested Thursday, was connected to white supremacists though encrypted online conversations, federal prosecutors said.

After Climo's arrest, FBI agents said he told them he had acquired electronic components to build a bomb and that he wanted to mobilize an eight-man sniper platoon to shoot Jewish people either at a Las Vegas synagogue or some other location.

According to charging documents, an FBI bomb technician found bomb-making components and chemical compounds in Climo's bedroom. Federal agents said they also seized an AR-15 style rifle and a bolt-action rifle from the room.

Climo tried to recruit a homeless person to engage in "pre-attack surveillance" on a house of worship and wanted to target patrons of an LGBTQ bar on Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas, federal prosecutors said in a statement.

Agents say Climo sketched images of such an attack in drawings that included two infantry squads attacking the bar with guns from the outside and one attacking it from the inside.

He allegedly told agents, according to FBI officials, that over the past two years he thought of several ideas to carry out an attack on Jews.

FBI officials said they received information that Climo was communicating with individuals who identified with the white supremacist extremist group Atomwaffen Division. Prosecutors said in their statement that he also communicated with people who "identified with" the National Socialist Movement, a neo-Nazi group.

Climo could face up to 10 years in federal prison if convicted, prosecutors said. His next court date is scheduled for Aug. 23.

Climo was featured on a local TV report in 2016 that described him as a "local citizen on patrol" who openly carried an assault-style weapon and a large knife.

Authorities said Climo was a security guard
