#FND Lightweight socialist who only uses an anonymous avatar because he's not too photogenic, and would rather laugh than do politics. However, if politics is your thing... (Also, Owen Dirkshift isn't my real name.)

Just remember, it took twelve years and fifty million deaths to get rid of Hitler. You've still got three years and about fifty million deaths left to go!

Trumpism is a house of cards. If he died today, it would collapse under the weight of his successors incompetence. We saw that in the UK under Johnson. The Cons, (who had a huge majority), never recovered from throwing all their eggs in one basket and the US will be the same.

Put an assault rifle with live rounds, in the hands of a scared teenager in uniform, in the wrong place at the wrong time, and he *WILL* use it! It's only a matter of time. I'll see your LA Protests, and raise you a Sunday Bloody Sunday!

So I get my WFA back. And I think it's a crying shame, because it'll just go into my holiday fund, as it used to, which is nice, but someone who needs it more than me won't get it, which is what she was trying to do in the first place. Shame! Enjoy your victory, people...

In the UK, our equivalent of the the National Guard, is the Army Reserve, formally known as the Territorial Army. I did 13 years in the 70s and 80s, and was put on standby for the Falklands war. Under no circumstances, would I have turned out against the civilian population of the UK. None at all!

Just shows who's side the US generals are on, doesn't it? They ought to be ashamed of themselves!

The land of the free eh? Jeez....
