Imagine: Roving Military Patrols, Arresting and Detaining Anybody Who Looks Even Vaguely Hispanic.

For that is what Trump says he'll do. He'll send the military out to find and deport eleven million people, which will be the greatest roundup of people by ethnicity since the Germans were stuffing Jews, Roma and lots of other groups into boxcars. And yes, concentration camps will be constructed. He'll give the DoJ names of people he wants prosecuted and fire any prosecutor who doesn't carry out his bidding. And he'll essentially hand Europe over to Russia.

None of that is wild hyperbole. It's what he said he'll do.

If you are OK with that, then, respectfully, you need to stop saying the Pledge of Allegiance. For you are lying every time you do.

If you are not OK with that, then get off your ass and get to work ensuring that the closest that the TOFF ever comes to the White House again is a courtroom in D.C.

  1. As I suspect like the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Right which you have little knowledge of (If so, Kangaroo Counts for the "TOFF" are an odd way to celebrate them)

    Here's the words of the current edition (as of about 1950's)

    “I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

    Please explain so brilliant one what part of Pledge of Allegiance APPY to ILLEGALS?

    Or has the Meat Puppet currently doing the "President" thing suddenly declared everybody inside America's boarders a citizen?

  2. Growing up I always used to wonder how the Nazis took over. Now I know. Wish I didn't.

  3. Michael, you betray your ignorance of the law. Everyone has constitutional rights.

    Please put down the Trumpist Koolaid and learn some basic civics.

  4. I grew up in the late 50s and 60s and the pledge applied to everyone
    as we were taught. At that time to be here it was the intent to
    become a citizen.

    As to how the Nazis came to power that was laid out in by time I
    was in middle school.

    In the end it can happen again as all that was needed is people
    to look the other way. Until it was their turn.


    Eck!

  5. God got added in the 50's. Had to do it a few times in grade school, but that was all. At one time most of the Western US was part of the Spanish Empire. We got great architecture, and we got the legend of Zorro
    .

    Apologies for a tawdry example, but it is a legend that still has some life.

    If we consider the states with significant Hispanic populations, NC has had one of the fastest if not fastest growing populations in that direction. Better citizens than most of the white trash around here. We have a number of major highways, so we've had some sturm und drang with the El Chapo gang sorting out the new power structure.

  6. Everybody has constitutional rights?

    Everybody has American Constitutional Rights?

    WOW, someone tell the Russians and everybody Hey have American Constitutional rights. HURRY IN and get free healthcare, housing, pre-paid credit card and cell phone.

    It's our children's future we are selling off. Look to Sweden and Germany where it's against the LAW to report assault, Rape or Murder because of Islamophobia.

    NO Comrade American CITIZENS have constitutional rights.

    Reminds me of our discussion that that "Our Democracy" isn't mentioned once in the bedrock documents of our country.

  7. If a Russian citizen is arrested on the streets of New York City, he or she would be have the same constitutional rights you (sadly) have. They would have the right to an attorney (and a public defender, if they couldn't pay one). They would have a right to trial by jury. They would have a right to not be tortured. If they had a residence, they would have a right to not have it searched without probably cause and/or a warrant.

    The facts that you don't understand that, the fact that you seem to think a Russian in Moscow has constitutional rights leads me to one inescapable conclusion:

    You, Sir, are a blithering idiot.

    Now, normally, I treat readers and commentators with a modicum of respect. For that, I require that commentators have some degree of sanity. You don't.

    This is your only notice: Keep your blatherings up and you will be relegated to the Banhammer List.

  8. As a coda, the Supreme Court has shredded the Ninth Amendment
    The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution

    Bork got bounced because of it. And if that isn't bad enough the Court is ruling on hypotheticals now. Evidence - we don't need no stinking evidence. Carry on.
