How are you celebrating Americas 250th birthday?

Thanks for posting that. His death was (IMO) the turning point in the future of this nation. He was a politician, sure, but he was a war veteran and a patriot who worked for the betterment of the country.

MAGA is not partisan. It just means we need to do better.

JFK was a democrat assassinated by a Marxist follower.

Do you think Oswald shot him in the head?

I saw some thing the other day saying it was the driver of the limo.

Lots of different view points for conspiracy theories.

Kennedy was against the agenda and was silenced.
Kinda like all the other outspoken people who have been silenced.

I read a book a few years ago that said a Secret Service agent in the follow up car lost his balance and popped his head with an M16. The impact looked like high velocity round and the fragments reportedly inside his skull looked like high speed hollow point. Too many theories becuase not enough evidence was released. The Warren Comission was an absolute joke.

MAGA......Make America Great Again! Yep, I'm drinking the Kool-Aid! Sounds great to me! It's an idea, Reagan used it as a slogan, but he F'ed up with his policies. Repub's and Dem"s both suck as an idea. They both have horrible life long shyt heads that need to go. Commies, the DSA and the Neo Cons need to go. We are on that track with the MAGA, MAHA crowd, Tusli, RFK Jr. etc........ Europe is already damn near done IMO, and they are already regreting it. They all want to move here. We can't give up and can't let the Dems/Commies take over. NYC is gone for a while, and most of the large cities. MAGA AF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AMERICA A 250 YEAR EXPERIMENT IN SELF GOVERNANCE

IN OUR FORM OF GOVERNMENT, THE INDIVIDUAL IS SOVEREIGN, NOT THE GOVERNMENT AND NOT A GROUP OF PEOPLE AND NOT SOME KIND OF COMMITTEE

WE HAVE THE LARGEST MOST SUCCESSFUL & MOST PATRIOTIC AND LOYAL MIDDLE-CLASS THE WORLD IS EVER KNOWN.

IF YOU WORK ON AN ASSEMBLY LINE, WOULD YOU RATHER WORK ON AN ASSEMBLY LINE IN RUSSIA? CHINA? OR THE USA?

WOULD YOU RATHER SEE A DOCTOR AND GET SURGERY IN OUR COUNTRY OR RUSSIA? CUBA?

IN OUR COUNTRY THERE ARE NO SET CLASSES...YOU COULD BE RICH AND BECOME POOR OR YOU CAN BE POOR AND BECOME RICH.

YOU CAN COME IN AN IMMIGRANT AND BECOME RICH OR COME IN AN IMMIGRANT AND BE ON THE WELFARE DOLE

WE LIVE BETTER...THAN KINGS AND QUEENS EVER LIVED...100 YEARS AGO.

WE HAVE RUNNING WATER...CLEAN WATER...HOT WATER...YOU HIT A SWITCH AND HAVE ELECTRICITY.

IF YOU GO INTO A MAJOR SUPERMARKET THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF MEAT GROUND MEAT (FATTY TO LEAN)

I found a couple of old small metal student type desks

They were in pretty bad shape
...as some of the legs were broke off
...& the tops were basically "shot"
...but, they both had seeming usable (3) drawer units attached
I rounded up some scrap wood

The Beige "cabinet" wasa just a bit bigger (~1/8" wider)
...so, I mounted it first (simply screwed to the 2 x 4's) from the inside

Then "stacked" the Black "cabinet" on top
...& screwed it "in place"

Then, blew years of dirt dust (& some rust dust) outta them

Gave 'em a good cleaning "wipe down"

Then, started workin' on the re-patriation process

Yup, I American-ized, the whole unit
USA, USA, USA

I had a kinda heated discussion with my youngest daughter, the other evening
...& thought I'd share

After I posted the first systems test video of my fiberglass monocoque racer, my oldest daughter asked if it was drivable yet
...& I said "almost rabbit...almost"

I told her that I gotta take 'er apart & paint everything
..."I'ma thinking Red, White & Blue"

My youngest daughter says "lammmmme & unoriginal"

I said "come on...get with the spirit, your an American. Be proud of it. Its NOT a bad thing"

She says "Meh"

I said "FWIU America is the greatest place to live on the planet.
Would you rather live in Russia or China or any of the 3rd world countries?"
&
"America is great because of our values & way of life, NOT because of everything we have"
"We have everything that we have because of our values & way of life"
&
Here in America someone can start off poor & become rich &/or they can start off rich & become poor too"
"It's ALL about personal ambition & NOT some government or committee dictating what you do & how you do it"

She says "who asked??"

I said "Unless your rich (& we are not rich) you wouldn't want to live in any other country than America"
"Appreciate what we have...& quit knocking it"
& added
"If someone is gay, they should be proud of being gay"
&
"If someone is Canadian, they should be proud to be Canadian"
&
"If someone is American (like us) they (we) should be proud to be American"

She says "you still yappin'?"

I ended off with "American patriotism was HUGE when I was a kid & it was so kool. I remember back in 1976 during Americas 200th birthday celebrations where farmers ALL over Ohio (& maybe the whole country) painted up their barns different variations of Red, White & Blue"
"They were everywhere"
"Everyone was pitching in to clean up America"
"We even cleaned up the fire hydrants & painted 'em in patriotic colors"
"The patriotism (the vibe) was so kool"

She says "I'm abt to block you"

I left a "sad face" emoji

I dont ever hear people wanting to immigrate to Somalia.
No one is flocking to N. Korea for opportunity.
Even a few famous TDS crybabies left this great country and came back because the grass isn't greener.
There's a reason we are the land of opportunity.
Stand proud of who we are and appreciate what we have.
