muslims are coming together online forming protests about the wall and ban against immigrants. cant help but notice all these people coming out in protest of immigrants, were nowhere to be found for the blm marches and protests. but that's another story I guess.

If I became president I would raid gun owners homes and take their weapons. Make things like da OG muscle car era where cats had to use their hands to handle conflicts. Not serious lol.

Which is why I'm kind of indifferent and won't be out here protesting for this wall ish. Many Latinos who feel they've made it in America are actually for the wall.

I just think it's funny how these celebs were able to clear their schedules for the Womens March but couldnt even send a tweet for a BLM onepic.twitter.com/uSd28DuKfP

and

 

etc etc. hard to feel compelled to march with these other groups, when for the past 2 years they've refused to march with you. but now that the war is real to them, word to Cassian Andor

they want us to join them.

Can the couple trump sympathizers on here explain to me why Andrew Wakefield met with trump and showed up at his inauguration ball?

For those who don't know, Wakefield is the quack who published a fraudulent paper in 1998 claiming that vaccines were linked with autism. He also had his medical license revoked due to ethics violations. Worse yet, he falsified the data because he planned to profit off the backlash against vaccines.

This piece of **** is the kind of guy trump likes to work with. Along with theranos board members, another debunked and dangerous scam. Why? Because trump himself is the biggest scam of them all. How anyone can defend him is beyond me, and anyone who tries is just as bad in my book.

**** you all.

 

[tekthemaestro]

That's not true but ok.

That article is all around ridiculousness, from the fact that the firm that made that proposal is Mexican, to the mall and prison and prisoner factory included...

They did they same thing with DAPL protests. I guess black issues aren't as deserving for protests as other issues.

If we're going to stand up to trump, then everyone has to unite: black and white, women and men, immigrants and natives, gay and straight, scientists/doctors/lawyers/tech geeks, christians/jews/muslims/atheists, etc.

If we do then we can have everything. If not then trump and da deplorables will **** us.

There weren't even hundreds of thousands of black folks that came out for BLM protests man. I went and watched one in downtown LA it was plenty of diverse faces in the marches. Black, white, Latino, Asian. Wasn't just exclusively us.

What happens to the other half of the country that disagree with you? Because when saying everyone, you really don't mean everyone.

The outright disregard for facts regarding our environment and the attempt to muzzle scientists regarding climate change is an act of war on humanity.

 

[Mr.Guy]

To be honest, im not worried about Trump. I don't have any kids and don't to to have any anytime soon, plus I'm about to get a job in liberal state that I'll most likely be able to keep for the rest of my life.

Animal agriculture is the biggest threat to the environment.

Really hoping all of you that are complaining are on a plant-based diet. Otherwise, your outrage holds no weight. You can't expect government to regulate when you can't even regulate what you put in your mouth.

Is it really another half?

For all the talk about "urban islands in a sea of red" during the election, it turns out that 80% of all Americans live in urban areas. In addition, 40% of those eligible to vote didn't show up, and Trump won with a smaller amount of votes.

The sea of Red is empty population-wise.

So you want civil war?
