What I find most depressing is when a person starts with 'If XYZ is true' and in a couple of sentences arrives at 'Shame on you for XYZ'.
This self-winding on a downspiral due to complete dissociation from whatever the facts may be is a recipe for disaster. All it takes it to then be replicated over and over and over.
YMMV
Understood. I was lazy. Ten seconds of doing a Google search brings up a host of different websites who say no U.S. flags displayed inside DNC. Given that in this age of the internet you can't believe everything you read and given that I did not attend the DNC, my statement stands. I will edit my remark however, to reiterate "if that's true" before my admonishment.Quote:

Speaking from uncomfortable national experience, let me say this: Once you start counting flags, you are one step away from disaster. Just do a Google search for Reichsparteitag.
Wait, wait, I found a Democrat waving an American Flag
Right before he set the Flag, himself, and two others on fire AT THE RNC to stay on Topic :D
Yep,,, you asked for that one
Attachment 241942
ps: I was just watching the feeds, I have to admit I did see one flag being waved out there, maybe they sent out a memo so there was one
Awww, cute. But not exactly RNC related. Just as an incentive to stay on topic, Glen, here is one of the leading US conservative news outlets: Note to Donald Trump: You’re on Fire, Stupid.Quote:

And that would be "unfair". Like this image:
I mean, seriously, that is just unfair. Or is it not?
How exactly did you determine his partisan affiliation?Quote:

Because the cops arrested him right then and there and he alerted the media he was going to do itQuote:

Seems legit :p
I take it you mean the Main Stream Media, commonly referred to as the MSM? Caw canny, Glen, they cannot be trusted. At all.Quote:

I'm starting to think that the way you keep talking about everything else except the question I asked may mean that you didn't make your assertion that the guy is democrat based on evidence you have, but may be you just made it up.Quote:

I just can't believe folks on the right here are making an issue of there being no flag or flags prominent at the DNC. I mean you just gotta keep searching for something.
Why aren't we talking about how il Duce is gonna fulfill all his promises.
Just another example of why this country is in the shape it's in.
