    It must be pleasant to be a liberal. Every political principle fits on a bumper sticker. All problems can be chalked up to (1) racism, (2) capitalism, (3) global warming, or (4) Donald Trump. They never hear a conservative message, but they won't shut up themselves. The left can't resist the impulse to abuse those on the right at every opportunity.

    We on the right endure leftist sensory overload every day.

    We can live without the sight of NFL players, coaches, even owners kneeling to protest demonstrably nonexistent "systemic police racism." We can live without seeing Colin Kaepernick's socks, featuring pigs wearing police hats.

    My beloved Boston Red Sox lost me when they posted the Marxist group's 'BLACK LIVES MATTER' on the marquee at Fenway Park, in the iconic typeface used on their uniforms. Of course my beloved Boston Celtics lost me as well when the players had 'BLACK LIVES MATTER' etched on their uniforms.

    Now we're going to try to live without the MLB, Delta Airlines, and Coca-Cola as well for their condemnation of Georgia's laws that would prevent future election fraud.

    We can also live without the popular music at the Grammys that had staged a musical video portraying police as murderers.

    Johnny Carson and Jay Leno entertained the entire country for five decades, but today's late-night hosts battle for the viewership of half the nation by mocking the other half. While I do miss Carson and Leno, I stopped listening to current late-night nitwit hosts almost from the get-go.

    'Real Simple' magazine devoted a segment on 'conversations everyone should have about climate change with family members. It offered helpful strategies for badgering uncles who think its a hoax, brothers who drive gas-guzzlers, or "your impressionable kids."

    But its more than just having we all-American Righties avoid personal attacks by these lefties. It's a Marxist assault on our values--an unrelenting campaign to delegitimize and stigmatize any departure from the party view.

    So in my view...we RIGHTIES cannot live without gearing up for this ongoing war against our values and against our American nation. Biden's attack speech today on our 2nd Amendment rights further fuels the need for we RIGHTIES to enlist for the fight against this domestic leftist enemy.

    The second amendment should not be a partisan issue. Politicians that claim to care about the poor enjoy armed protection while putting gun ownership further out of reach for those on a low income. The poor live in neighborhoods where the need for protection is greater.

    Even if they manage to buy a gun, they can't afford ammo and regular trips to the range. Those that don't own a car cannot legally transport their firearm to the range.

    Gun laws only benefit killers by providing them with easy victims.

    My landlord is a liberal, the other day he personally called me a "divider".......yes, because that's such a unifying message....

    Yet he has no problem taking my knot of 20$ bills every month, on time, never short, for years now.

    Should have asked him to spend some $ and unite some problems around here with a solution....

    Only a fool continues to impoverish their life to nurse their grievance.
    Pretty soon, all the right wingers will be reduced to living in caves, their only connection to the real world coming from trump’s pay-to-play website.
    The right was always good at cutting off their nose to spite their face.

    I'm all for the 2nd and own several firearms. I dont see the problem with enhanced background checks. The bump stock and shoulder brace bans dont bother me one bit. They are accessories, not critical to the function of the weapon. They are simply range toys...

    Furthermore, I've saved him from calling an electrician 3 times, a plumber twice and a roofer once, not to mention countless chores others would charge for.....I'm so "divisive"...

    Love it when I tell people that I'm agnostic and not religious in the slightest and they automatically assume I'm a liberal communist. I'm conservative, Republican, support the second amendment, and dont believe in abortion as a personal preference. I'm just not religious, so I guess that automatically makes me an anti-American commie...

    I'm sure the Sox and Celtics are very upset they "lost" you. I'll continue to watch and support Sox, Pats, Celtics and Bruins as I'm a grown adult and am tolerant of others having different ideas and opinions. Not sure how "beloved" the Sox and Celts were to you if you can walk away from them just because of a sign. You might have some emotional issues you need to work through. Good luck to you.

    Liberal business owners never run their businesses how they propose we run the country.

    Hee hee, like my liberal ex-boss who claimed he wouldn't have a problem "paying a little more" to offset Obama Care, the he got his tax bill....my, what decidedly non-liberal words he had for our first black president. From here out let your liberal, non-divisive jerk of a landlord pay to maintain HIS property, the law requires him to.

    Not seeing a problem doesn't mean one doesn't exist. The slight increase in temperature doesn't bother the frog one bit.

    But can you live without the Russian trolls who tell you what to be mad about every day? I think not.

    You don't think the property owner passes that expense down to the renter? You are paying your landlords property taxes and upkeep expenses.

    Heres a little secret. These little social issues have very little effect on your actual lifestyle. Mostly its about the economy.

    If he is like me he doesn't have a problem with opposing opinions. He has a problem being browbeaten about them from companies and organizations that hurt themselves by dragging their organizations into the toilet of politics. You would never catch me doing that with my company. i want to sell to people of all political persuasions. If I have a choice where to spend my money, I won't spend it with a publicly partisan company of any Stripe. I don't buy Ben and Jerry ice cream and I don't sleep on a My Pillow. I have no emotional issues. I have preferences.

    Limiting accessories for firearms is not taking away your 2nd amendment rights. The same way that having blue and red strobe lights on a non-law enforcement vehicle is illegal. Does that stop you from being able to drive your car? No, it doesn't...

    And if I may add, ORIGINAL! It must be nice to be spoon fed every talking point and narrative be it honest or dishonest without conscience.
