A more basic issue- the honesty of the media when there is scare story either true/false, see-

So yo go shoots up yo plaz, man, cuz dat plasma-fur-ee-sis good shit be wot boxes dem toxins. Den jes sez groovy. Cause den you be cool wid it.

The ridiculous signs got a laugh out of me. Only a Liberal would take them seriously.

I'm groping for something to say... still groping...

Ah yes, the warmth of collectivism. Part of Mao's cultural revolution in the '60s was the eradication of comedy and humor indicating the left has no sense of it - see late night TV for more proof. Glad you keep us in good humor and informed by your memes, OUC! Thank you!

After the Rev War my ancestor, who fought in the Colonial Army, was awarded land near Elmira for his service. Sold the land to NYS in 1830 and descendants migrated west and north until we landed in Rochester. I still live near Rochester where I was born. Lots of TDS around here, but not as much as NYC and I'm surviving, LOL. I have a grandson living in Kansas City, but I haven't been there myself yet.

Bugs Bunny to kilts great lol

Kansas City didn't maybe the playoffs, so I was hoping for the Bills (I'm originally from Elmira, NY). Now I'm fearful of going there to visit my old pal who's morphed into a media dupe with an acute (but humorous) case of TDS, and my uncle in Rochester. Just a quick in-and-out, I'll be safe. LOL! Lived on Hertel Ave. in Bufflao and Lyell in Rochester when I played in rock music bands.

Being suicidal and endangering your own family is defunding the police.

The socialism definition is right on. Don't think it could be stated anymore succinctly.

This could have been a "Sick" joke in this weeks TGIFfunnies (just published)

Didn't know one's sense of Humor could get sick . . .

Thank you for the comments, perhaps they might start getting more people down here to take more of an active position in our governmental issues. And there are plenty of people here that have the same feelings about our government, but then again, do little to effect it, other than expressing ain't it a bitch. One fortunate thing happening: Trumps movement is getting more worldly attention every month that goes by.

She literally took plasma away from dying people so she could satisfy her stupidity. Even worst, she was proud of it enough to tell the world. We deserve to die if this is the kind of people we idealize.

Thank you for your input on this, Snakecane!

You got me laughing, fairbro, LOL. We could use one of those graviton machines here in western NY to get NYC to float out to sea.

I never worked in a union shop or company, but I know many who have. Mostly there are horror stories of wasted time and money, but there were a few where the union was actually useful.

Swap Minnesota, California, Portland and Seattle, for Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

Or just get the graviton machines lined up on the Nevada border and let Chlamydiafornia slide into the Pacific.

Happy Birthday, you old Saurischian!
I just turned 68 myself, but I just saw my cardiologist, and he said everything's fine, everything's fine. ;^|
If you're like me, you probably knew it but just misplaced it.
I'm not totally against unions - I had a friend who got a permanent, disabling back injury at age 52. The company dropped him like a hot rock and he would have been screwed for life, if the union benefits hadn't kicked in, so he was able to retire peacefully and buy a place in the mountains. The unions have their place, but membership should be strictly voluntary. There's NO WAY we should have government-sector unions. Kennedy screwed us over big-time with that one.
A commercial union is a parasite on the intestine of a company. It may be beneficial in small doses, like the gut bacteria that help you digest. It HAS to refrain from pushing too hard, else the customers (who actually pay for everything!) quit buying, and the company dies, and the parasite dies with it. It's in the union's BEST INTEREST to see that the company does well, or at least OK.
In the government sector, there's nothing stopping it. You're not dealing with customers as such, and the taxpayers pay. If the unions ask too much, the taxpayers just pay more,... ad infinitum.

Today me a soon to turn 79 dino learned something he did not know. Thanks.

I believe that Eastern Washington would petition to join before the ink was dry!

You can say communist - we all understand! Like the way you think - and agree it would be best to stay independent based on the recent record of USA with the exception of the 8 years of Trump....

Hurry up, Alberta, so that Saskatchewan and British Columbia have time to follow your lead. Stay independent, by all means, and you may have those southern borders being crossed by disgusted Washingtonians wanting to join your new country. Will you remain as separate independent states in a coalition or will you band together like your Southern neighbor? We will all be watching as this amazing drama unfolds, and we all hope for your best results. Just as a side bar, Eastern Washington may petition to join as well. That side of the state is trampled under the western side politics.

The bad news is, if member ship in the union is REQUIRED in order to be employed, then the union can charge whatever they want in fees. This is precisely why union membership should be voluntary only.

Cutting off the NEA would be the closest thing to cutting out a huge, metastatic tumor in our society.
Allowing government-sector unionization should be unthinkable, but the liberals in our country manages to wedge them in with Kennedy's executive order 10988 in '62.
Sen.Marsha Blackburn introduced the Federal Workforce Freedom Act S-1006 nearly a year ago:

"A bill to prohibit Federal employees from organizing, joining, or participating in labor unions for purposes of collective bargaining or representation, and for other purposes"

This has been shelved and ignored, and is probably the most important piece of legislation currently being considered. I don't know if this also applies to all teachers, but it should at least affect the ones at the Dept.of Education.
