Still Rising Again after All These Years, Reprise 0

I’m a Southern boy. I grew up under Jim Crow and attended segregated schools. I know how to decode de code.

Today’s Republican Party wants to bring those days back.

Indeed, they’re not even trying to you-will-pardon-the-expression white wash it any more.

“An Armed Society Is a Polite Society” 0

Yet another responsible gun owner decides to expose his portable phallus.

The victims said that a man was showing off a gun and it accidentally went off, striking himself in the stomach and a woman in the leg, police said.

Just another day in the NRA’s Garden of Bleedin’.

According to my old Philly DL friend Noz, that’s something that the American Stasi seems to have forgotten (if they ever cared in the first place).

In a longer article by John Young about the defilement of CBS, this comment particularly caught my eye:

DEI? Anyone revolted by the comical hires by this president — the Noems, the Bondis, the Hegseths, the Patels – knows “FUI” is his method.

It stands for “finding useful idiots.”

Methinks he has a point. Go read the article and see what you think.

Once again, politeness goes for the dogs.

Jonathan told WAVE he came home last Saturday to find Rex hurt, beaten up as if he’d been run over. So, he checked his Ring camera.

“Everything was fine, everything was fine, everything was fine, until a gold F-150 pulled up and everything was not fine,” he said.

The camera shows a man reach out of that truck and point a gun at Rex, shooting him in the leg.
