You know you're guilty, Whiskey. You're responding exactly like your duck pal. You're not one who will take a long hard look and think about what you're doing. The difference between you and the duck is that you know you're in the wrong. Doesn't matter if you admit it.

That doesn't mean fixing a fan can't be an entertaining way to fill a morning.
Y'all need to make up your mind. Ya had me convinced there that I didn't know crap about crap.
Ban Whiskey permanently if that's the only way.

That's the best comeback you've got? Again, you know you're in the wrong, that's why you're flailing. I know you feel bad for those kids and don't want to see crap like that happen, but you're not going to face the fact that you contributed to it, at least not on this board.

The last fan I had fixed was the condenser fan to an AC unit about 3 weeks ago. I just paid the guy to do it. Replaced the old 1.4 amp with a 1.8 amp fan. I guess that's replacing not fixing. Fixing a fan would be impressive. What did you do, replace bearings? Please tell me you didn't just blast it with wd-40 or dry-lube. I guess that would count if the problem went away.

I’d be more impressed if he had tried breastfeeding something.

Now how the hell can y'all know what I think at any given moment but not know what I do?

We had to reseat the damn thing at the roof. Fix the drops and find out why it wouldn't fire up. It was wired poorly.

JFC, Kish. You keep changing the rules and the goalpoasts and the playing surface. This board prides itself on arriving at and publishing the things that other people think without the other person ever having disclosed that thought.

A federal police source, in violation of the Constitution, stated a military style raid on an apartment building in Chicago. Agents rappelled from Blackhawks. Doors were smashed. Apartments were trashed. Children were awakened and zip tied. Thirty to forty citizens were zip tied and held in U-Haul vans.

No search or arrest warrants were obtained beforehand.

The first thought is how dumb this is. It's season 50 of the Apprentice. Unfortunately, I still think it's effective advertising for the Republican brand for certain kinds of people. There's that slim hope that the billions and billions in funding will eventually dry up in lawsuits the way the LDS Church is spending their cash empire -- way down the road.

The second thought is it's the next step in the "fake it 'til you make it" dictatorship. What can he get away with against those most unable to protect themselves? They'd rather be doing this in Beverly Hills, I guess they don't see that as viable yet, but I don't know why.

I think what proves the immorality of the base is that it's happening in Chicago. Why isn't Ajax crying that these forces aren't cleaning up his city? The only answer is to admit it's culture war punishment rather than a serious effort to implement policies that they believe in.

I think everyone realizes it's an entirely unsustainable kind of operation. It's basically terrorism. I assume you saw the video clip of the horde of ICE agents chasing after the guy on a bicycle declaring he wasn't a US citizen and they couldn't catch him. The striking thing to me was all these uniforms standing around with nothing to do but get trolled.

“It was heartbreaking to watch,” Watson told the news station. “Even if you’re not a mother, seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.”

How many times did we hear our parents and their peers worriedly state with solemn certainty that the federal government would someday come for the Saints? How many time have we heard or seen Evangelicals and the such prepare for conflict with the fed, talking about how evil the latter was and they needed to protect the body of Christ against the Satan-controlled federal government?

All this time they were the ones we needed to prepare against. They’re sick.

This is not a time to joke about sombreros in a helicopter.
As Trump deteriorates even further, he can find ICE and Homeland Security agents who can be ordered to put hits out on Trump's perceived enemies.
