    I appreciate Klobuchar's connection to the agricultural community, her understanding of their needs. Her campaign page on climate -- https://amyklobuchar.com/issue/climate/ -- states the impact of climate change on our food system. I wish she would take it one stage further and state that our food system impacts climate change, but I don't think America is ready for that. We need to change our food system, and in a hurry, if we are to make any progress toward stabilizing global warming. 
    I'm going to see how she does in New Hampshire before I donate to her campaign. Not throwing money at a candidate who drops out a week after I donate. But I do still have hopes for her.

    spritual get off the god damn boards and go here and let me know how this place is (I believe you said you live in this city):
    The Rover (therover.se)
    If you're looking for cask ale bars in Gothenburg, then this should be your first call. With 32 regularly rotated taps, alongside a selection of 50 bottles, ciders and malts, the focus is largely on the Nordic countries. Groups of ten or more can also book a beer or whisky tasting. Open daily until midnight (01:00 Friday & Saturday).

    Second Långgatan 12

    413 28 Gothenburg

    What you wanna know about it? Been there 2-3 times... Last time was with two other swedish Pearl Jam fans.

    You can try the place out when Pearl Jams management realises the band should play the westcoast of Sweden and not yet again boring Stockholm. 
    The place looks real cool.  Actually there seems to be a lot of really unique bars in your town.  
    Replace town with country. 
    And Elm Street with "cool bar".



    Down in central Europe the bars should be better and the beer cheaper. But nothing stops us from taking a beer or two up here though.

    I thought you listed another bar first though, which is famous for its beer sortiment and I had a friend who always took her tinder dates there because it was located a bit "off" and she didn't have to run into people she knew:


    Ölrepubliken is a mix between a pub and restaurant with a focus on quality beer and good food. The beer selection is large with about 30 different varieties on tap and in the fridge there are another 200 to choose from. Also a wide range of whiskey.

    Can anyone imagine Bernie ordering up a drone strike?
    Yes. Of Wall Street. ;)

    Nice. Wishing the deaths of Americans in New York City. Congrats comrade.
    Where should I want drone strikes?
    Putin’s house? Terrorist camps? 

    I can think of others but since you are taking my response seriously I won’t mention them, cause some Americans would be there ;)

    Yeah this is where I start to feel bad about myself. Like Amy, don’t donate cause I’m afraid it’s wasted $...but if I don’t donate I’m not helping....such a tough decision when you want to have the most impact for whatever you are willing to give. And giving to a political campaign always feels a little wasteful to me anyhow. Better charities ;)

    Just to be clear: I don't support ANY drone strikes by the US government. So, I've got a pretty strong anti-death stance on that front.

    Wonder what good old Mr Davis JR has to say about this. We talk about how words matter with trump. I wonder if words matter when others constantly harp on racism within the police force as a whole.

    Why the fuck would it matter what a city-councilperson in South Bend, Indiana thinks about a shooting in the Bronx?

    I agree, it's a self-perpetuating cycle. I have never donated money to a candidate before because I've always donated my time as a volunteer. This primary season, I just haven't had the time to give, so it's my way of making up for it.  I'm talking $25.00, that's it.

    Please defend this, you being a Pete Pal:


    I’m would have to look into more than the Bernie / Russian troll farm posts.

    still waiting for you to defend Bernie lying about Warren. 
    He said he did not say it. 

    Still waiting for you defending Warrens campaign putting out lies about Bernie?

    There you go.

    And look into it. I check back tomorrow.
    I looked briefly and wasn’t disturbed. He seems to say that it’s 2 groups not really against each other. 1 wants safety for AA and other want safety for police officers. 

    Just wanna follow up on you saying you are not disturbed. You say that "He (pete) seems to says" and then that is what it is. So it is your perception that the police t-shirt are not a response to the "I can't breathe" t-shirts? You are saying that they do not stand against each other then?

    Then explain to me, what does the police (and Pete defending them) mean by "Breathe easy. Don't break the law" ?  What does the "Breathe easy" means if it is not a comment on the "I can't breathe" tshirts?

    I’m saying it certainly was a response and not a good one. But when you feel attacked as a whole for the actions of a few, you get defensive. 

    And I prefer a response like Pete’s to people that stir up anger and confrontation

    The the fuck does it matter what you say about anything? Or what a Swede says about the Us election? What a weird comment to make.

    Pete handled that situation well.  He's in charge of the PD ultimately and needs them to know that he supports individual officers along with the public. It's easy for twitter douches to criticize when the vast majority have never actually lead anything.
