Looks like Maga Mike is getting defined by Dems and buried in his Religious Extremist history.
AdLib2 hours ago
Well they just found the Maine mass shooter dead near a place he used to work at and was fired.
twilson117

Yes, just saw that. Kind of figured after the cops found his sniper rifle that he left it to go off and shoot himself.
AdLib2 hours ago
Well, for the sake of the folks in Maine I’m glad it’s over but for those who lost someone it’s a sad day

And of course, he was a MAGA, people have listed records of who he followed on social media and you know who appears to be one of those at the top of the list? Musk.
AdLib2 hours ago
Yes, glad it’s over for the sake of the friends and families of victims and everyone in ME. But Repubs in The House will do nothing about it. Maga Mike declared that it is people’s “hearts” that cause mass shootings. So Repubs say shootings is due to hearts, doors not being locked, not enough security men at schools…but gunshots are never due to guns.
AdLib2 hours ago
Well all I have to say about is it’s over, and my sympathies for those who lost a love one because of what this man did.

Murph – Exactly!

Here is a telling reality…..I have a friend who works for a hardware chain that sells guns…..big rush on the stores in the past few d ays.

Ad…..it is a bit of ctradiction as the man seems a bit stiff.

Well the next few weeks should be very interesting since we have damn fricking fundamentalist in charge of the house. Well I guess that will just give me more material to write about.

Murph – It’s kind of irrelevant, the morons who already have many guns are the ones going out to buy guns in most cases. You only have two hands, how can you shoot more than two guns? With their feet or their tongues?
AdLib2 hours ago
Irrelevant but very telling…..and let us not forget that many of these individuals move in packs and they share.
MurphTheSurf3

Murph – Good one! He also seems to be a Johnson who looks like a joke.
AdLib2 hours ago
Ad….I expect that Johnson may stand up and standby but in the long run will limp along in the office.
MurphTheSurf3

Murph – I’ve come to think that the way impotent MAGAs “take action” when they get scared is to buy more guns. It’s pretty stupid but seems to be the case.
AdLib2 hours ago
Ad – my experience backs that up.
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
Murph – Yep, that is one embarassing Johnson.
AdLib2 hours ago
Murph you’re right about them moving in packs, I saw a picture of several of them all kneeling and praying, I’m guessing they were asking for bigger checks from their lobbyist friends.

I saw someone quote The Bible, I think it was a quote from Jesus, about beware of those who exhibit their religiousness in pubic.

Ad this new guy is going to be I fear a real trip.

Is that a legit quote? Do either of you know?
AdLib2 hours ago
As you both may recall……I am a gun owner. I have been training in their use. I keep them secure.Their purposes are hunting and protection.. I do not carry. My property signage and fencing makes clear that the property is private and protected. It is also fenced, lighted and under surveillance.

TW….yes kneeling to pray holding onto their sacred talismans.

Ad yes there is something along those lines but don’t remember which book or verse.

I understand that a militia group that operates in my area is having a bonfire rally tonight to show their solidarity with……????? Who? Crazed Mass Murderers.

TW – Here’s my proposition, as Maga Mike has to actually lead the House in votes and outrageous amendments, his extremism will be widely on display, he will be blamed for screwing up things and failing to pass urgent bills and the shine will come off the apple pretty quickly, as an inexperienced guy who has never been a leader of any kind. He will blow up himself and the Repub majority, IMO.
AdLiban hour ago
Murph it sounds to me you’re doing everything within the law regarding the protection of your property and letting people know it.
twilson117

Ad…as usual your analysis is cogent, clear and condemning
MurphTheSurf3

Ad….the co-op and then the association were great grounds for building up security protocol.
MurphTheSurf3

Murph – I am 100% behind you in being a gun owner and protecting yourself and your property. Especially in a state like MO with so many open carrying and being ignorant extremists, it only makes sense.
AdLiban hour ago
Ad……my experience is that the crazies do not mess around with those who take these kind of precautions…..they are, at heart, cowards.

Murph – If the Dems win in 2024 as I think they will, resoundingly, Dems can take steps to end the “permission” in our society to let open hatred and threats of violence be acceptable. These vermin who Trump empowered to crawl out from under their rocks need to be chased back under them.
AdLiban hour ago
Ad I think that goes without saying. He is an election denier. Which to me means he doesn’t believe in the peaceful transfer of power thus he doesn’t believe in the constitution.
twilson117

Murph – Then it’s doubly bad that the association and co-op got destroyed by the MAGA loons.
AdLiban hour ago
I was asked at a bar once, several years ago, what I would do to repel “invaders” at the co-op. I knew that some of the crazies were there…..so I spoke of signage, lights and alarms….an auto call system to the local town police and the sherri’s police, a secure place to gather hardened and with arms that would do the job. I said that I favored shotguns with small pellet loads to drive people away with being lethal and then the appropriate handgun to bring down those who would not learn.it is odd, no one has breached our perimeters in all these years.
MurphTheSurf3

I left out “alarms”

Murph – You nailed it. MAGAs are typical “tough guy” thugs. So brave when threatening anonymously on calls or social media, so brave when ganging up on outnumbered or unarmed people but faced with a threat back at them for their criminal behavior, they run away and cry that their 1st Amendment rights are being stepped on or howl about “deranged” police, prosecutors, or press being to blame for the consequences they deserve.
AdLiban hour ago
You know the crowd….bullies at heart….as is their fearless (i.e fearful) leader.

Murph with that explanation they clearly got the message you knew more about weapons than they thought.

TW – Maga Mike is so extreme and wrong on almost every issue. Guns, Climate Change, equality and rights for LGBTQ, women, PoC. Someone found a video of him from a few years ago, claiming that everything wrong with America would be fixed if we went back to the way things were in the 1700s! You know, when morality reigned and slavery was in place along with women not having the right to vote.
