So I asked (#42) ... ... Got specific examples, and justifications (a.k.a. links)? ..

And your reply is...

#$43 ... opinion ... a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge. ...

It is good to see that you admit your comments are not based upon fact or knowledge.

@#3 ... on the CT roads ...

And i have to noted, the roads in this area of Connecticut (i.e., Fairfield County) are little more than the colonial cow-paths that have been paved over for modern times.

Stated differently, an in line with the topic at hand, the roads here are windy. Many, oh so many blind curves. Major states routes avoiding trees.

That's the problem.

Drivers do not seem to be paying attention to what is in front of them.

Is it the ~home entertainment~ dashboard display that is presented to drivers?

Or is it their phones?

I wish I know...

@#9 ... Our best bet may be to embrace the ten commandments and use it to shame the republicans that show no interest in respecting it. ...

Yeah, I'm not yet convinced that is our best bet at the moment.

At this point, I am waiting to the eventual court filing .

On the other hand, given the current Chief Justice Robert's SCOTUS, bribes seem to be more important than the Constitution.

So, there's that aspect to consider.

@#41 ... I don't ...but I do hate attempts to pervert their intent to suit a specific political ideology ...

Got specific examples, and justifications (a.k.a. links)?

@#3 ... I worked at 3M and it was well known in the 80's that people had low concentrations of the things in their bodies. There was just no data to indicate they were toxic in the concentrations people had in their system. ...

@#8 ... you sir are a hypocrite...

Why?

I stated in #5 ...

... But yeah, your comment shows the "racism" aspect I noted. ...

And the racism comment I noted is my #3

... Taking a step back, it is interesting the use of the word racism in so many election reports nowadays. ...

To that point ...

Oh, this ain't good.

It's the Tylenol thing all over again.

@#3 .. .Our Republic working as intended. ...

Yeah, when your current alias says things like "Our Republic" ...

Did ya get new talking points?

@#70 ... If you want to let homeless people camp out in front of your house, have at it. ...

Why are you changing the problem?

Why, suddenly do you say "in front of your house?"

Do you think that should trigger some manner on NIMBY response?

Why are you trying, desperately, it seems at this point, to avoid the crux of the problem?

Why do you not want to solve the problem, and instead see to be so focused upon castigating the symptoms?

Let me ask you bluntly...

What would you do to resolve the homeless problem the Country faces?

@#46 ... You can't spell Make America Great Again without Great (Depression) ...

Yeah, the posts seem to be getting desperate

@#45 ... how many times are you going to post about what you consider deflection ...

As many times as you try to use deflection as an avoidance to provide an answer.

As I have said, if you want a discussion on those other topics, start threads on those topics.

Otherwise, those other topics are irrelevant on this thread.

:)

@#16

That one seems to work.

@#13

The link you cite was modified by this site.

Lemme try different approach ...

@#40 ... Talking about "this" meaning this thread specific problem in light of all the OTHER problems we're facing ...

Oh, I saw that apparent deflect attempt by your comment, and I called it out.

So, if all those OTHER problems are so important to you, please start threads on them.

But, for this thread, please avoid the deflection attempts.

@#39 ... I remember a better time in this country. it seemed people had more of a sense of responsibility to their families and their communities. ...

... and that sense of responsibility to their community now apparently ignores those in the community with problems?

@!0 ... "His performance demonstrated once again that he is a danger to democracy and unfit for office," ...

Well, yeah.

If you try to rise above the party vs Country debate, the choice is clear.

But, will the GOP ever rise to that occasion?

More from the cited article...

... Now, the Inquirer, founded in 1829, has done just that.

The piece, called, "To serve his country, Donald Trump should leave the race," mirrors the language of the Times' Biden article.

"Biden had a horrible night Thursday. But the debate about the debate is misplaced. The only person who should withdraw from the race is Trump," the Inquirer argued on Saturday.

The piece notes that, "lost in the hand wringing was Donald Trump's usual bombastic litany of lies, hyperbole, bigotry, ignorance, and fear mongering."

"His performance demonstrated once again that he is a danger to democracy and unfit for office," the article states. "Trump, 78, has been on the political stage for eight years marked by chaos, corruption, and incivility. Why go back to that?" ...

@#4 ... and we're just talking about THIS problem ...

That's the topic of this thread.

Are you feeling a need to deflect to another problem?

Maybe, start a new thread.

I'd be willing to comment there.

But, then the question that comes to mind for me, is why do you seem to want to deflect away from this discussion about homelessness, one in which you have shown that you to not seem to care about Americans.

@#22 ... what's the difference they're living like animals ...

The difference between your designation of homeless camps as war zones, and your apparent retreat from that assertion to "what's the difference they're living like animals" is quite significant.

For one, your retreat from its prior assertion seems to show that even you realize that assertion was wrong.

But then there is the place you retreated to.

imo, that place is not better, but it does show how your view appears to intentionally denigrate the homeless because of the symptom, and seems to refuse to try to resolve the cause.

@#1 ... The allegations resulted in relentless, vitriolic harassment, doxxing and credible death threats to me and my family. ...

Welcome to how fmr Pres Trump wants to "Make America Great Again."

More from the cited article...

... When I learned I was named as a defendant in Missouri v. Biden, the predecessor to Murthy v. Missouri, a lawsuit alleging that the U.S. government, in coordination with independent researchers, had censored American citizens via social media, I was 36 weeks pregnant, extremely out of breath and in the midst of one of the worst weeks of my life.

For days, the right-wing media and members of Congress had been incessantly lying about me and my new job as executive director of the Disinformation Governance Board.

They falsely claimed that the board -- set up to coordinate policy related to disinformation within the Department of Homeland Security -- was actually set up to police Americans' views and that I would be the country's chief censor.

The allegations resulted in relentless, vitriolic harassment, doxxing and credible death threats to me and my family. ...

@#14 ... When anyone says they will make America or Europe "Great Again!" what they really mean is they will cancel the human rights progress we have achieved in the last 50 or 60 years. Racists, homophobes, xenopfobes and misogynists cheer for it because they think it will make their sick hatred normal but society has dealt with these issues and even if they win an election those issues are past tense issues and those who try to resurrect those excuses for hatred are now considered the freaks. ...

Well, yeah.

And worth a repeat...

@#27 ... and it'll be interesting to see exactly how states will thread that constitutional needle ...

Yeah.

instead of trying to resolve the cause of the problem, "thread the needle" to attack the symptoms.

That is always a successful strategy.

Back in the day, fmr Pres Trump's tariffs against China did little for onshoring of jobs.
What they seemed to do was move jobs from China to Vietnam.
