I don’t understand our country
I’m sick of hearing about that Rittenhouse kid. He should have been in jail. The judge should be in jail now too, because he’s a total idiot. It made Wisconsin look even worse. I have never seen something so disgraceful in my life as that. That young man idiot should be in prison for the rest of his life, or given the death penalty. I don’t care. He should have never been there. I don’t understand our country. And anybody that donated to him like Ricky Schroeder and anybody else, I hope you lose all your money, I really do. And it doesn’t take that long to destroy a weapon. They just throw it in the furnace.

Asleep at the wheel
If this doesn’t anger Americans, I don’t know what does. Are you not fed up with all the taxes that you have to pay in order to repay our government? Our government is using our money to transport undocumented citizens across the country on airplanes. What’s the problem with this picture? I can’t believe that the American people here are asleep at the wheel. What are you waiting for?
You are a fool
It’s called victim blaming. The honest citizens somehow did not do their due diligence. They did not lock the door to the house, unlocked garage, unattended purse in the cart, lawn mower left in the yard, package left on the front porch, car running in very cold weather and left briefly unattended. It’s a long list. Any potential child has to be big enough to hold the brake down fully to take the car out of park. And in front of a packed emergency waiting room and the security kiosk. Perhaps you are referring to the 11-year-old kid caught on camera in Chicago actively participating in an armed hijacking. At best, you are virtue signaling. Your support of a criminal activity speaks volumes, and removes any doubt that you are a fool.
Get much better real quick
About this Bears situation: All the media talking heads and the guys on CBS, they all slobber all over the head coach. Remember, the head coach has got to play the hand that the general manager gives him. The Bears general managers, from Pace and Angelo, gave the head coach a bad hand. Remember Angelo? He did one thing right when he first came in. He cut Cade McNown. And after that, Angelo did zippo. Now, with this new general manager, everything I’ve seen so far is pointing in the right direction. He brought in an assistant general manager to help him. Now, he needs to realign the scouting system so that down the road they can make decent draft choices. They’ve got to bring in free agents that can play. Draft picks are not enough to fix the problems that the Bears have now. The general manager has got to do whatever he can to bring in good, solid, offensive linemen that can block for and protect Justin Fields. They have to give him protection. The other big issue is you’ve got to get at least two more wide receivers. If this general manager can do that before the start of next year — two good wide receivers and rebuild the offensive line — the Bears have got a good chance to get much better real quick.
Is there anything more stupid?
Is there anything more stupid in the world than a Republican? Remember Newt Gingrich’s Contract with America? Remember the Tea Party? They were beauties, weren’t they? And now we’ve got this Bone Spurs situation going on, and it all relates to the Republican Party.
