    That song was about smoking the reefer...
    Five to One?  I'm fairly certain that was about Vietnam and the protests at home.  One in five was the casualty rate during the war at some point, or that was the thought.  I believe..  
    At the time 1 in 5 Americans were believed smoking the marijuana.

    It was also the Vietnam casualty rate.

    No one knows though.
    It's about 2020. Jim Morrison was a prophet. 

    I thought everyone in Gen X learned this around their freshman or sophomore year of high school (around the same time we all learned that Jesus builds hotrods).

    Sheesh, people.

    So true... I friggin/ loved the Doors back in the day... couldn't care less about them now though.


    IIRC, Morrison was never a weed guy. Loved his hallucinogens & booze, (& uppers too?) but I think I remember reading that he wasn't into weed. Not that  it means he wouldn't sing about it... IDK.

  • What group is currently rioting in Major American cities? Hmmmmm Democrats correct?

    Simplistic take. The protests, 93% of which have been peaceful throughout the country, have mostly been done by people aligned most closely with Dems. The riots? You'll have to ask the anarchists and agitators who are stirring up the shit. They don't seem to have any real political allegiance and are there to cause trouble. Sometimes they are from the left, sometimes from the right, sometimes seem to be opposed to all political systems. But I know nuance isn't a strong suit for Trump supporters.

    So these are right wing black lives matter riots in Portland? Seattle set up a republican autonomous zone? Etc etc?

    Joe Biden has yet to denounce Antifa

    Of course Joe doesn’t know where he’s at and he has barely left his basement in months

    Your generalization of Democrats rioting is so far off base it's laughable.  I'll leave you to your distorted thinking and not further waste my time trying convince you otherwise.

    Adios amigo!

    LOL. 
    You'd think Ben would have better things to do with his money than come here and try convince what is obviously a majority of Democrat/ left leaning people that they are all misguided.  I ask myself questions like: How much does he gets paid to do that?  Are the dividends good?

    It's already been shown that in Minneapolis, the very first property destruction that kicked the whole thing off (not that it would not have happened) was done by a white supremacist.  It's not that hard to imagine that plenty of those people are out doing crap like this in other places.

    No.... there's no civil war coming.  90% of the country are not ready to sacrifice their lives for the tax code or the SCOTUS. Crazy.

    Man shot dead in Denver during rival left and rightwing protests




    No.... there's no civil war coming.  90% of the country are not ready to sacrifice their lives for the tax code or the SCOTUS. Crazy. 
    I agree with caution! I believe people will die in the streets in bigger numbers that what most are expecting..
    Maybe true.  But the 90% will stay home and watch with disgust at violence. 
    Yes me & my family fall into that % just go to work come home repeat repeat!
    jesus greets me looks just like me ....

    I think that's a fair assumption, M.  But I do wonder about the other 10%.  Are some town centers and some big city downtown areas going to be unpleasant (at best) places to visit, live, or work in?  Look out our little city of Placerville, CA, population, 10,389 (plus more population in surrounding areas). A week ago, a group of Proud Boy types in pick up truck circled Main Street, yelling, blaring their horns, waving Trump flags and causing some folks to scurry into open shops to avoid the frightening situation.  I don't mean to be alarmist, but I am feeling very wary about the situation.

    Yeah I think that will happen.  And these idiots are only losing votes for Trump, not winning them.  I think it will be messy for those that want to be in that action, but not war.

    That's the silver lining:  Keep losing votes for Trump!  Fine with me!

    yeah, there isn't a big enough cause on the trump side for enough people to rise up and actually risk their own safety and lives for that. they'll go back to their trailers and bitch with like-minded individuals over cases of colt cult 45. 
    Darwinspeed, all.

    "cult 45", LOL. 
    The best outcome would be for Biden to win, for Dems to step up to the place and do some of the things they say they are going to do, and maybe, just maybe, some of these Trumpers will see that life is actually getting better without their oafish super hero screwing things up any more.  I hope that happens!   And then we could do away with this senseless talk about Civil War and nonsense.
