Feeling the Bern
Feeling the Bern's JournalIts The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown (Full Episode)
My mother just had a stroke
no warning signs, no nothing. Just slumped over in her desk chair at her computer. 64 years old. Currently at University Medical Center.
What makes this worse? I am such an outcast in my family that if I didn't see my brother's facebook posting about it, I would never have known. She had her stroke Sunday night. It is now Wednesday night in the States.
Any reconciliation between my father and I died this week.
Trump always makes his opinions two name words: Lyin Ted, Crooked Hillary, Lil Marco.
In two words, do it for him. DUers are creative. . .and yes, you can swear in it too, as I will in my two.

Donnie Dipshit said one thing in this debate that was true and I agree with
The legal immigration system in this country sucks, is inefficient and is broken.
It shouldn't take seven years to get citizenship. . .and it shouldn't two-to-five years to get a green card that isn't sponsored through an HB1 visa.
I know this for a fact. . .my wife and I are going through the bullshit of getting her green card now (she is a Chinese national) and the State Department, INS and the others agencies we need to deal with are just incomprehensible in their red tape, bullshit and inability to be helpful. They literally fight every step of the way. She's doing it through a K3 spouse visa.
BUT. . .if she did it through a work visa (HB-1), it would talk three months.
Then there's the insane fees. It will cost close to $3000 to get her green card. Citizenship costs $500. This is disgusting.
We need comprehensive LEGAL immigration reform.
I need to say it. All Lives Matter is bullshit (rant to help a friend on FB)
A friend of mine got into an argument with an ALM idiot. I had to come to her defense.
1: Black lives don't matter. They are thugs.
2: Jewish lives don't matter. They killed Christ
3. Muslim lives don't matter. They are terrorists
4. Mexican lives don't matter. They deserve to die in the desert because they are illegals.
5. Chinese lives don't matter. They are communists
6. Homeless people's lives don't matter. They are moochers
7. AIDS victims in Africa lives don't matter. They are black.
8. Haitian victims of natural disasters lives don't matter. See #7.
9. Native American lives don't matter. They never really did,
10. North Korean lives don't matter. See #5.
11. Starving children in Africa's lives don't matter. See #7.
12. Victims of the drug war lives don't matter. They are not white.
They only started screaming All Lives Matter to attempt to destroy a movement to stop racist cops from killing black people and getting away with it.
All Lives Matter people need to put their sheets on and stop the pretense. They don't care about All Lives. They only lives they care about are white lives. And any black person, minority, etc, that scream All Lives Matter are Uncle Ruckas.
Did I miss a group these idiot ALM people forgot don't matter to them?
I'm ashamed to be a Buffalo Bills fan today, actually ashamed to be an NFL fan today
So, I bleed the colors of the Buffalo Bills being from Upstate New York. I was there through the lean years of the 1980s, the four losing Super Bowls, the Music City Miracle (it was still a forward pass) and these last 16 years of craptacular playoff-less football.
Today, I am officially ashamed of being a fan of the sport. Not because of the right wing idiots that play(ed) it like the Mannings, and Tom Brady and Thurman Thomas and Mike Ditka. For some reason, the NFL attracts the most obnoxious tea baggers ever.
They showed up with some vulgar and inappropriate signs, including one that depicted a gun target on Kaepernick's chest.
Give me a God damned break
Here are two of the "patriotic shirts" that were sold in Orchard Park today.
One is condoning murder of someone you disagree with. MURDER!!!
The other is actually telling someone to NOT exercise their 1st amendment rights. "Stand Up and Shut Up." These NFL fans are disgusting. They love the country, but hate the 1st amendment. They can protest Obamacare, but protesting a red, white and blue piece of cloth or a damn song is treason. Some were actually hoping the Bills would late hit Kap and end his career, not even once thinking about the fact this is the man's job and he uses it to feed, clothe and provide a house for his family.
WTF have we become? We have a presidential candidate that wants to jail his opponent, and his idiot followers want to cripple or kill someone they disagree with because why?
Let me explain something to you teabagging jackholes. . .the 1st amendment protection of free speech is meant to protect unpopular speech. Shit, even hate speech is protected. Ask the Klan in Skokie, IL and those assholes from Westboro Baptist Church. Also, the first amendment gives people the right to assemble peacefully and to petition to redress grievances, which is what Kap is doing. You asswipes are being violent and condoning violence, which is NOT protected speech.
But I guess you right wing shitstains still think you have a monopoly on what is considered patriotic. It's amazing that a movement that has been traditionally on the wrong side of history (supporting slavery, segregation, against worker's rights, women's rights, environmental laws, safety standards, public education, etc) would think they know what this country is and stands for.
One Buffalo Bills fan said Kap was destroying the country that by challenging everything Americans hold dear. I don't know about you, but I do not hold the anthem or the flag dear. The constitution, yes! The Bill of Rights, also yes. The other two things. . .nope, nope, nope.
Another Bills fan bitched that Kap was shitting in the face of the police officers protecting him (while the officer was saluting during the anthem when Kap took a knee silently). See, the officers MUST salute, apparently. Nowhere does it say in law that I must stand and take off my hat for a song. See, I can CHOOSE to do so, or I can CHOOSE not to do so! As for telling me police protect my rights. . .HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Sorry, I'm not laughing at you. Well, yes I am, and at your ignorance.
If you think police protect you, let me introduce you to this guy: Walter DeLeon
In June of this year, DeLeon, 49, was on his regular evening walk to a nearby park when LAPD Officer Cairo Palacios “feared for his life” and shot him in the head.
He needed help and went to the police. Below are before and after photos of him.
Kap is right, NFL fans are wrong and I am ashamed to support my team after they blew out the 49ers 45-16. I'm sure the rest of you might feel the same or similar for different reason.
Trump: If Clinton falls in China, 'they'll just leave her there' - PRC has no good Samaritan laws
"When she's over in China, if she goes down, in Tiananmen Square, they'll just leave her there," Trump said during a rally Thursday in Ohio.
"They're tough people. They're just going to leave her there. They're not going to help her up. They'll say 'Let her come up when she's ready.' These are tough people."
Trump has questioned whether Clinton has the stamina to serve as president many times in the past.
He knows nothing about China
Now, it's time to educate people. China has no good Samaritan laws. If someone falls and you help them, they can claim you pushed them and hurt them. As such, that person can sue you for damages. My wife always tells me to wife my impulse to help people like that because she doesn't want us sued.
It isn't they are tough, asshole. No one wants to go to court and lose because they did something good. Learn about a place before you talk, shit for brains.
We knew it would happen: At Long Last, Trump Blames The Jews For His Failed Campaign.
Donald Trump lashed out at global elites who undermine American sovereignty through “international banks” — and many observers couldn’t help but notice the underlying anti-Semitic message.
Throughout the speech, Trump used harsh language that evoked old and ugly anti-Semitic conspiracy theories about international bankers who supposedly infiltrate national governments and control the global agenda. Citing recent Clinton campaign emails published by WikiLeaks, Trump told the crowd that "Clinton meets in secret with international banks in order to plot the destruction of US sovereignty." Echoing the rhetoric of Alex Jones and other conspiracy theorists, Trump repeatedly referred to "globalists" as the true enemy and Clinton as their handmaiden.

The transformation of the GOP from a legitimate party to a fringe fascist enterprise is complete!
Crowd hurls slurs at all-black youth football team as some players kneel during anthem, coach says
Source: WaPo
Youth football coach Marcus Burkley knew there would be backlash if his players knelt during the national anthem. He just never thought it would be this severe.
When three members of Burkley’s all-black team took a knee during a Saturday night game in Bethel Park, Pa., people in the stands began shouting racial slurs at them, eventually becoming so aggressive that police were called to keep the peace, he said.
“Once they took a knee, you see cameras and people taking pictures,” Burkley, who is also African American, told WPXI. “And out of nowhere you just hear, ‘If the little n-word want to take a knee, they shouldn’t be able to play.’”
As the game proceeded, Burkley said, some of his 12- and 13-year-old players told him they heard the same thing on the field from the opposing team. He said neither he nor his Woodland Hills Wolverines had encountered anything like it in the two years they have played in the league.

Speechless. Literally speechless. Trump has made bigotry, sexism, racism and xenophobia mainstream.
Trump effect: First grader beaten on school bus for being Muslim
The parents of the first grader said he was beaten by five students on a school bus, allegedly while they made references to Muslims and the boy’s Pakistani heritage.
Abdul Usmani’s father, Dr. Zeeshan-ul-hassan Usmani, told BuzzFeed News that his wife and three sons have left the US for Pakistan after this latest incident in a long history of discrimination towards his children and family.
“These are six and seven year old kids calling him names, with one kid punching him in the face, while two other kids attacked him, kicked him, and held his arms back,” Usmani said of his son.
He described his son “as American as you can get.”
Are we sickened yet?
Yet, Trump thinks Islamophobia is bad, even though his entire campaign is based on it, xenophobia and sexism.
