‘Man Freaks Out Animal Rights Protesters By Eating Shish Kebab’
“Freaking out a group of animal activist protesters, some of whom spilled fake blood on the sidewalk in front of the Nike, Dior and Louis Vuitton stores in Manhattan, a man walked over and calmly started eating his shish kebab in front of them.
His presence while eating meat catalyzed some incendiary responses. As posted on Twitter by @ViralNewsNYC, the video showed people screaming in his face.”
(…)
“In March 2018, animal rights activists in Toronto conducting their fourth protest against a game-themed restaurant called Antler Kitchen and Bar got a response they didn’t expect: one of the co-owners of the restaurant, who was also a chef, brought out a deer leg to a table in the front window and started carving it in front of the protesters.
One banner held by a protester read “Murder” in large, hot pink letters; another demonstrator held a sign that read “please add vegan steak to the menu.”
The co-owner, Michael Hunter, who hunts moose and deer with a crossbow, not only carved the leg, but then sat down at the table and ate the meat in front of the protesters.

That’s the result of Trumps trashing the economy before he left office. It will take years to recover. Look how long it took Obama to recover from the total disaster of the economy that Bush left.

The divides do not run that deep along demographic lines. The most recent poll from the Economist and YouGov found that 58 percent of Americans say we are in a recession today. Men are slightly more likely than women to say we’re in a recession, at 59 percent to 57 percent. A 51 percent majority of blacks say we’re in a recession, with 27 percent saying we’re not and 22 percent saying they are not sure. Among Hispanics, 53 percent say we’re in a recession, 22 percent say we are not, and 25 percent say they are not sure.

Just stating the fact that the economies were trashed under Bush and Trump. The reasons are an entirely different question. Same with the Great Depression. Hoover handed Roosevelt a total depression and it took the Dems years to pull us out of it. Three strikes you’re out and that applies to the mess that the Republicans left for Roosevelt, Obama and Biden. Republicans cannot be trusted with the economy. History proves it.

Then I challenged him more than once to provide proof of what Trump did to trash the economy and he can’t do it.
So he resorts to a crass lie where he tries to change the statement to something different.

Psul, the economy was not trashed when Trump left office. Inflation was 1.7%-1.9%. Macy’s was not predicting a collapsing economy because of Trump, for sure. What the end customer retailers are saying that they see a hard fall a’coming because by President Biden’s second full year of having his hand at the helm of the economy the energy sector, transportation, baby formula, and foreign policy….well, the future looks glum for them.
From Target to Bloomingdale’s, they were mostly unscathed during the small company job killing lockdowns during the Corona Virus. Looking ahead under this current administration and its new policies, Macys and others that were making money in that retail sweet spot are about to not only feel the first pinches of the wringet, they are going to feel the deep freeze as well.
“Reasons are a different question” sounds familiar. Like what they said about Russia Gate, Raiding Trump’s home, and everything in between. Get Trump first, , reasons are a different matter. Next question please.
PS. I can and I DO deny, just as I denied believing what your outstanding upright 17 Intel Agencies said. You can’t deny that!

Don 7:32 – The Dems are desperately hoping to run out the clock by throwing money at the voters and having the LS news media run interference. They are trying to claim there is no recession at the same time they claim maybe there is a recession but it’s the Fed’s fault or Russia or Wall Street.
The stock market is sinking and the consumers are cutting back and running up their credit cards.
The Dems wanted expensive energy (going back to Obama who bragged it was their goal) and we’re getting it.
Apparently it’s beyond the comprehension of a sizable majority that EVERYTHING happens because of the use of energy. Drive up the cost of that and you have rising costs of everything. Even as demand dips, the costs rise.
Stagflation.
We went through this in the 70s but I guess few want to learn anything.

Rather, it is driven by the many billions of dollars we are spending on wind turbines, solar panels, transmission lines and backup natural gas generation. These massive investments have done nothing to increase our already-adequate power generating capacity. Rather, they represent a dead loss that is reflected in skyrocketing electricity prices.”
