[CA fires continue to kill, destroy thousands of homes, and cost billions to contain. In the meantime prescription burns to reduce fuel loads are proscribed because of the potential of litigation costs from accidental or claimed damages from such burns. And police point out that mass shootings invariably occur in ‘gun-free zones’ where legal guns that could prevent/reduce deaths are banned. And the state’s housing shortage and high cost continue to be maintained by regulations and codes that cater to liberal governance dominated by the ecology epidemic.

“A white supremacist who has lived in Sandpoint, Idaho, has sent a new round of racist robocalls targeting Florida Democratic gubernatorial nominee Andrew Gillum that appear to be directed at black Democratic Party leaders in the state.
Two county Democratic Party chairs told the Washington Post that they received the new robocall Tuesday morning. It features a man impersonating Gillum in a minstrel dialect, while jungle sounds and chimpanzee noises can be heard in the background.”

M 1206pm – The semantics of ‘patriot’ vs ‘nationalist’ are interesting to discuss. But we can’t make any progress believing your authors who have fashioned their own pejorative definition of nationalist which they then gleefully assault. There is no clause in the definition of nationalist as requiring belief that his nation is superior to all other nations. A nationalist espouses nationalism the clear definition of which is – “Nationalism is a political, social, and economic system characterized by the promotion of the interests of a particular nation, especially with the aim of gaining and maintaining sovereignty (self-governance) over the homeland.”
The reach your mentors attempt is the insinuation that nationalist and ‘white nationalist’, again perversely defined, are the same, with the latter clearly containing the accusation of white supremacy and racialism.
What really pisses off your leftwing intellectuals is that nationalism opposes globalism, and therefore it must be vilified by adorning it with additional attributes that most people, including the lightly read, find objectionable. Such a dialectic is simple, sophomoric, but very effective – e.g. examine your own embrace of it.

Those are 2 different things, Paul.
But since you want to expand on your telling us lies, Paul – let’s examine the facts.
At 2:08 you stated “all that seems left for the Pubsters is Idaho, where all the Nazi’s retire…”
Then I challenged that bit of BS at 5:28 wondering how you knew what ‘all’ NAZIs did.
At 6:48 you wrote – “just stated a fact that there are many Nazi types that have holed up there in the woods.”
Really!
When did you state that “there are many Nazi types that have holed up there in the woods.”?
You never stated any such thing. You lied.
Then you claimed that Todd called you a communist and for proof provided a quote that he had said that you ‘supported’ communists.
Looks like another lie to me.
Then you claim you don’t know what I’m talking about.
I’m sorry I called you a liar for that – probably you can’t remember anything for more than 2 or 3 seconds at a time – so we’ll chalk that up to dementia or something.

Speaking of Green Libertarianism, I was amusing myself by looking at a Gary Johnson speech and thinking about the crack KVMR news desk.
Whether these are good ideas or not, and I never gave much attention to the man, evidently he was for the following kinds of things.
. Abolish the Department of Education.
. privatize schools whenever possible (at least, that’s how I read it).
. Repeal Obamacare
. Means test Medicare
. Government stays out of healthcare except to remove impediments to free markets
. Elimination of corporate income tax
. Cut military budget by 43% (an odd number, but whatever)
I don’t doubt that the folks at KVMR are behind that last one, but the others….well….
