Informative video, also covers the election, so it's not really off topic here.




"Police are not allowed to respond to these armed gang home invasions unless there are at least 4 criminals or more"...

That lady is either lying her face off, or that is one of the dumbest police policies I've ever heard.

^ can you find any evidence that claim (about police only responding if there are 4 criminals or more) is true?

i can't.

"We have serious problems to solve, and we need serious people to solve them. And whatever your particular problem is, I promise you, Bob Rumson is not the least bit interested in solving it. He is interested in two things and two things only: making you afraid of it and telling you who's to blame for it. That, ladies and gentlemen, is how you win elections."

trump's campaign is nothing but baseless fear-mongering right now. that should tell you everything you need to know.

No. In fact, earlier in the interview, she made several other ridiculous comments. Typical cultist who literally *invents* fake scenarios to make their reality seem justified.

Yep, it's blatantly obvious and getting even worse. The entire modern Republican strategy is a farce.

The part that makes me really angry is they block their own border security bill, or the gas price gouging bill, simply to have something to blame the democrats for. It's more than just lies, it's sabotage.

Lol. Pop. 27,000

Also, I've held hundreds of cats. I worked at an animal shelter.

Me too! But more dogs than cats in my case.

Much less meat on a squirrel, but that's still good cookin'

I've had squirrel stew, too-- it's good, but you'll want more than one squirrel for sure.

I hated cleaning dog cages... they smelled 10x worse

I can't speak to dog cages like a kennel or shelter anything, but as a pet owner of both dogs and cats there is no worse smell than a litterbox. Even cleaned daily. Thankfully our cat is like a dog and does her business outside mostly now.

Have you smelled a dirty basset hound?

There is a point to be made about wet/dirty dog smell is pretty bad. I'll give you that. But it is usually an easier fix than finding that obnoxious cat spray smell in the carpet/couch.

Yeah, they're not even in the same universe of bad.
Cats can go mental and piss or shit anywhere. Dogs don't do that 99.9 % of the time
Even if they accidentally go inside they usually give you some kind of warning and they feel bad about it
Cats literally don't give a fuck

Found to be "too dangerous to release" is a lie, actually. The victim's families had a copyright on it and fought in court not to release it. Guessing they would find it too heart wrenching. They won in court, but conservative website The Tennessee Star published it anyway.

Well, IMHO cat urine is weapons-grade in intensity and cat poop stinks worse than dog poop. But dogs make up for it in volume.

If you guys are having issues with your cats pissing on random things, you are doing something wrong. I've only had a cat pee outside of the litterbox twice. Once, when I hadn't cleaned the litterbox as recently as I should have, and another time when the cat literally had a UTI.

It's a shame that the only choice we have besides an actual authoritarian is a neo-liberal. Actual progressives call them neo-liberals or corporate liberals. Many folks who consider themselves centrist call them moderates or moderate-liberals.
Problem is, that we are in a place that will take us (much) further right if we don't go for the lesser of evils thing. Not liking either gave us Trump over Hillary. Even if you hate Hillary, she would have been better than Trump's dumpster fire.
Hopefully, if we can stop our country from slouching toward a dictatorship, we can have a normal election and start making a lot of third party noise again. Start by working against the Electoral College for that.
Never an excuse to not vote at all.

Haitian group in Springfield, Ohio, files citizen criminal charges against Trump and Vance

Cool anecdote.

It's no longer an issue (seemed to stop when we spayed her - we were told she had been spayed already when we got her. Guess that's on me for trusting a free farm cat). In any case, my cat has never had an UTI so maybe you're doing something wrong.
