    A great example of this culture war nonsense is in Gov Cox's Pride Month declaration. This year he took out all LGBTQ+ references, so he gets blasted by the left. Simultaneously, he's blasted by the right for making such a declaration in the first place.

      somebody mentioned it earlier, but may bear repeating. in general, if you're triggering both extremes, you're probably doing something right.

        That sounds about right.

          I'm not sure exactly where this belongs, but I'm laughing.



          Also, I will never figure out how to post tweets/x. Not sure why I can't.

            I like how the blonde lady was all in until the guns came out, at which point she noped her way right out of there, post haste.

                The cop putting the handcuffs on has shorts on similar to that spoof that used to be on the comedy channel- Reno 9-1-1 or whatever it was.

                  Tribal police definitely have different dress and grooming standards than your typical metropolitan police standards. Stop in Moapa and you might not see shorts (though I wouldn't be surprised if you did) but you'll some pretty non-standard clothes.
                  Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                    You know, I've always been lead to believe that the sleeping dragon (the pipe connecting the two protesters) was a lot more durable that this video makes it appear to be. One solid whack with a Silverado PPV, and those hands popped right out.

                      Funny to see the public reaction. This blocking roads stunt is the worst idea ever.

                        The skinny girl with the gardening hat was super excited that the truck rammed the trailer was caught on camera and bravely started filming the arrest. I imagine her excitement would be similar if she saw Hillary Clinton walk by. Also, lol at the guy in the teel shirt writing down the license plate of the police vehicle. Gotta make sure we know which vehicle did the ramming.

                          Yeah it is a bad idea, but it is kind of funny when it is blocking the road into Burning Man.

                            Here is a thread with a lot of video from before the police showed up. They are lucky this was mainly hippies going to burning man. In almost any other situation, blocking a rural road causing a traffic jams of hicks is a time bomb.

                                These pricks might be too elite for Hillary. I suspect they are all about Ayahuasca retreats, microdosing, veganism, and pretending to care about the environment.
                                Burning Man seems like such a load of yuppie elitist horseshit.
