Cover all the stores that have closed thanks to democrat policies. Cover the unfettered gang robberies. Ask shoppers how they like having to get a clerk to open a locked container so they can get a tube of toothpaste. Ask the cops why they no longer do anything.

I'm with you on this one! I moved from the insanity happening in Seattle down to my college days stomping grounds of Arizona last year for the very reasons you mentioned (and others).

As a right-leaning independent I was definitely the stranger in a strange land.

How can people be so adversely affected by policies yet continue to vote in the same leadership year after year.(?) What will it take?

Both parties, Phil. ItтАЩs inexplicable to anyone but a MAGA die-hard why they тАЬcontinue to vote in the same leadership year after yearтАЭ.

Agreed! As A Californian, I listen in wonder to acquaintances who bitch about the crime and homelessness in LA and still vote for no-one but a Democrat. Cognitive dissonance!

ItтАЩs bc. there arenтАЩt any decent types in the Republican side. I know many Women Democrats who would vote for Niki Haley even though her Abortion ideas are not liberal enough.

Are you implying that Mayor Bruce Harrell can't fix the problems that Councilmember Bruce Harrell helped create?

I think the only thing will be when these people experience crime the way Shivanthi Sathanandan did in Minneapolis.

Oh, I'm not blaming Bruce Harrell at all - he can't help himself. I'm blaming the people who put him (and his predecessors) in office.

Oh shit you just reminded me of a hilarious idea where someone goes through the arrest reports and matches the names up with registered voters. Party affiliation is obvious but the percentage that are registered is the part IтАЩm curious about.

тАЬOh so you registered to take part in our elections and you also do carjackings? Cool cool.тАЭ

I'd like to see an article about people that the Dem's claim cannot manage to get an ID. It's racist or something? Who are these people? Please interview people from all over the country. You have to have an ID for pretty much everything.

You have to have a photo id to get into the Dem/Soc national convention.

Oh my gosh. Love it. That was so accurate. White liberals who donтАЩt know what they believe or why they believe it because it was told to them to believe about the IDтАЩs. How insulting they were to black people.

My theory on that is not that they can't get an ID it is that they won't. I believe the Dems have a much higher percentage of voters who won't vote if there is even a slight barrier to vote...such as getting an ID or leaving the house. Which to me doesn't say much about what they actually think of their voting block.

It does not say much to me about the quality of the votes either. I have a real world example. The college students at Texas State University, encouraged by parties (real ones) hosted by that bastion of progess, "Beto O'Rourke, turned out in droves, some bused to polling sites, to Vote Blue No Matter Who. They elected a 19 year old District Clerk with no experience. District Clerk's essentially facilitate the administration of state courts in Texas. He is an abomination. He sent juror summons to jurors to the clerk's address, for example. The newly elected self-proclaimed District Attorney took issue with that. The boy clerk has moved to remove said district attorney.

https://www.texastribune.org/2023/09/22/hays-county-higgins-rogue-prosecutors-removal/

The D A answered and counterclaimed.

The sweet child nonsuited (withdrew) his claim immediately. Too late though, the counterclaim survived.

The boy's name is Avrey Anderson. Research him for further information on why Vote Blue No Matter Who is foolish. I use the terms boy and child because his conduct has been very, very childish.

Have you noticed one of the Senators from Pennsylvania & wondered how or why he was elected? The same could be said of the recently deceased Senator from California who was repeatedly re-elected. She had been demented for some time. Does anyone think that the electorate of Kentucky, re-electing an impaired Mitch McConnell was prudent? It's all about power & money with idiots, morons & imbeciles the electorate.

Bussing voters seems to be a Texas tradition; that was described in my absolute favoritest movie, Charlie Wilson's War as how he won his district.

Lynne Morris's avatar

Texas State busses in the incident I had described. You know, paid for by the taxpayers. I actually saw a furry. But on CWW, read the book. The movie is good but the descriptions of how Wilson finnagled his war are eye-opening. The whole thing is an exercise in unintended consequences though. Yeah the USSR scurried out of Afghanistan after enough of its troops went home in body bags or maimed and mutilated, but that episode informed Russia's disdain for the West and angry Muslims were unleashed. Less than 20 years later, 911 resulted. Now it is the Ukraine sacrifice. I am by no means an isolationist but every pot is not worthy of stirring.

Oh yes, our nation-building efforts have not ended well. Whether unintended or not is a question in my mind one day after the 30th anniversary of the "Mogadishu Mile" and Slick Willy's immediate decision to cut and run....those efforts apparently were not worth the sacrifice of TF Ranger.

RE: the movie though, Phillip Seymour Hoffman as Gust was, I think my favorite character/portrayal of all time - the dialogue about bugging the scotch bottle is classic.

You've made a valid point. It's just puzzling how someone can make it without an ID. You have to have an ID to even have your utilities turned on. Maybe I've got a mental block trying to understand it

Agree completely. Show us specific examples of these people who have no legal ID. Whomever they are, they donтАЩt drive, they do not bank or even cash a check, they never purchase alcohol, they never enter into any type of contractual agreement, etc., etc.

Yes! I guess they walk around all day in circles. I guess they eat bark and dirt because there is no way they could buy appliances either. Or call or text anyone because ATT, Verizon etc wouldn't let anyone sign up for their services without an ID.
