    Nobody plays a crueler game than Young Kimshee. He has criminals taken to elementary schools to be executed in front of the children. The purpose is to ingrain fear so that they will never resist.

    Well...you could fire Trump.

    Surely anyone would do better then that stupid, senile, childish, dishonorable, racist, xenophobic, misogynistic, lump of fat goo whose only 'skills' are inheriting monies, having his companies declare bankruptcy and grabbing female genitalia without their consent.

    Not all welfare payments are paid for by the federal taxpayers.

    The national Republican Party has just abdicated organizing California.
    It is that simple.
    Most California voters are independent. Candidate over Party.
    Many of the new Americans become more conservative over 2-3 generations. Asians. Latinos.
    The growth in the Central Valley has a lot of "Red Votes".

    A major part of the too Blue a State, California is the lack of the
    national Republican Party to take an interest in California.

    yes, making Marijuana a scheduled one substance is against the letter of the law, no scheduled one substance can have a medical purpose

    do you want the fed to ignore the law?

    On a per capita basis, Blacks collect more welfare handouts than any other ethnic group.

    FACT: Blacks are 13.9% of the population of the United States.
    FACT: Blacks receive approximately 29% - 32% of all welfare expenditure in the United States.

    So, do Whites, as a group, collect more total dollars in welfare? Of COURSE they do -- because "non-Hispanic" Whites make up 63% of the total U. S. population!

    As for your contention that Whites in Republican-dominated states collect the most welfare (meaning on a per capita basis)...? Where in hell did you get that nonsense?!

    I want the Congress to amend the Controlled Substances Act, and remove pot from the list. That way, the issue appropriately goes to the states. Until that happens, it's a federal issue and all of these state legalizations are just fantasy. We have a system in place to handle this and going Fort Sumter on Federal law isn't the way to handle it.

    Didn't Trump just claim that his sucess as an actor proved he was like, really really smart and a stable genius. Sounds like a great Republican endorsement of Hollywood to me.

    Don't we want less federal control and more local government responsibility. Just joking, I know Republicans can talk out of both sides of their mouth.

    Oh I absolutely want to devolve power to the states, but you have to first repeal the federal law in question. For some reason, you guys don't want to do that, and want to live in a weird topsy turvy world where Federal laws are only supreme if they're cool...or something. We fought a civil war on that issue and some really stupid people, apparently want to be neo-confederates and fight it all over again.

    Let them secede. They'd likely jump at the opportunity.

    They are bigger than Canada or Australia.

    In my opinion the nation as a whole would be far better off if we would just peacefully break about.

    The nation as a nation does not seem worth saving.

    California as a whole hates the far right, the alt right, and Trump, in that order.

    My position is the anti-hypocrisy position. I think the you guys on the left should retire using that term until you learn what it means.

    I guess you are declaring yourself in rebellion against the United States?

    Rebellion to promote the peaceful breaking apart of the US?

    The American people/founders did not rebel when we peacefully walk away from the Articles of Confederation government and made it a completely dead letter.

    No reason why the states and the people could not just walk away from the Federal government and constitution in a similar manner to our walking away from the Articles of Confederation.

    I can not see Trump playing the parts of Lincoln and keeping the union together by force.

    Well go ahead then, have your Calexit. I'm curious as to how that would play out in the courts, or, if not that, the battlefield.

    Courts???

    The courts of the then dead letter federal government?

    Some of Trump supporters themselves already are calling for a so call white homeland and a greater and greater percent of the rest of us is getting tired of dragging the red states along and becoming the laughing stock of the world due to their actions.

    Breaking apart into two or three new nation states and perhaps even finally talking parts of Canada into joining us this time around.

    You mean you are in favor of state's rights except when you are not. Got it.

    White Homeland? You are the one talking about seceding. I don't know if you are trying to create a "white homeland" or not, but I'm anxious to pop my popcorn and watch you try.

    Clearly you don't "got it."

    The Supremacy Clause says you're wrong, and unless you feel that the Controlled Substances Act is unconstitutional, than suck it up buttercup.
