The Movie ? How does that relate to this Topic ?

If you drop a frog in a pot of boiling water, it will of course frantically try to clamber out. But if you place it gently in a pot of tepid water and turn the heat on low, it will float there quite placidly. As the water gradually heats up, the frog will sink into a tranquil stupor, exactly like one of us in a hot bath, and before long, with a smile on its face, it will unresistingly allow itself to be boiled to death.

Version of the story from Daniel Quinn's The Story of B

Freedoms and Liberties do not all erode at once. Little by little.

Reports of the City of Charlotte being hacked as well tonight.

I think it's all ready to late I'm afraid. Politicians have all ready taken over the country and it's just a matter of time now.There won't be a revolution trust me make people happy and feel secure and they go along with anything. The small few that don't you make disapear it's really not hard this scenario has been played out before. Just this time I think it's on a global scale that's all.

Oh, thanks. Yeah I've never seen a pipe that looks like that either. It also doesn't look the example I saw on a crime show of what a pipe bomb looks like.

I just cannot except that as being Possible . There will Always be Patriots who Will Fight and Die to Preserve their Freedoms no matter what the Odds are Against them . After 200 Years of Living in a Free Society , Only Death can take that away . Are the Powers that Be Ready to go there without Consequences ?

Ok guys I'm outta here, all my babies are home safe and sound. I've had enough mayhem for one day. thx for the info and convo. Here's hoping this won't be repeated tomorrow nite.

Yeah I saw it to along with this and now I'm just mad. They were picking on a old guy that happen to get caught in the mess. I'm assuming because he was white they thought it be funny to hurt him. If you don't want to be treated like animals first rule is to stop acting like animals.

You haven't lived in a free society for the last hundred or so and you didn't notice.

a reply to: dragonridr

I guess that would be Determined by what my Personal Definition of Freedom is . Are you implying that the Degree of Freedom in America was somehow Limited Since the End of the Civil War , or maybe Since the Creation of the Federal Reserve Bank in 1913 ?

Oh i was talking to one of the upstanding citizens who though that was hilarious. SO i asked what if the guy was Black would you find it funny then? He STFU then.

These rioters are America's real Basket of Deplorables.

a reply to: burdman30ott6

Why do you have to insult the deplorables by lumping them in with those who are NTAC 2.0 compliant?

If the police were interested in quelling the violence they would release the video proving the police viewpoint.

I've heard all kinds of noise about a new law in North Carolina that doesn't allow police videos to be released to the public.

CNN just reported that the law doesn't go into effect for another week, so the law is moot at this point.

The Police Chief said the video will not be released. He also says that at no point in the video is there a gun being pointed.

Now they have released the fact that the dead man has a past conviction, as if to say it's okay he was shot he's an ex convict that should be killed - which has nothing to do with the shooting, but it adds support to the police viewpoint for the U.S. public that because the man has a past he automatically is suspect even though the police who shot him were not aware of that at the time of the shooting.

At this point with police refusing to release any convincing evidence - I think that is a mistake and makes them look like liars which just inflames the situation further.

The Police Chief says the video doesn't provide definitive evidence, the Police union spokesperson says otherwise.
