Amazing that so many Roksliders seem to have no ability to reflect on history and the future of East vs west. We are fortunate to have large oceans to shield us and many strong Allies, and I am too young to be a Cold Warrior but I do know enough to understand that this is a terrible day for Europeans. Based on his recent speeches it’s clear that Putin is unhinged and only acts for the history books.

Oh, and bye bye stock markets.

I don’t know where this mindset comes from. I’m fairly certain there are no gold medals given to the tens of thousands of US military service members who would be killed in another world war. I come from a long line of service men and women and served three deployments to Afghanistan.

I don’t think any of my friends who were killed and injured ever received gold medals. Pretty sure my great great grandfather who spent 3 years as a Japanese POW in WW2 never received a gold medal.

I completely understand and agree that war is a necessary evil in society, but to quantify it as receiving a gold medal literally makes me sick to my stomach. There will be no winners to the service men and women who may be called to fight in this war and I hope we as a society understand the ENORMOUS sacrifice we are asking from them when and if we engage in this conflict.
Because there is jack i can do about the situation besides make lite of it. Display American bravado.
Whatever these dip shit officials are gonna do that the dip shit libtards elected i can't control. Only thing i can do is vote in my elections, but thats an absolute waist of time. My State has voted liberal my entire life.

Well all know why this is happening now. Alas, fodder for a quickly closed thread.
Yes, we do. And some will even admit it.

Those so called poor people can have the same crippling effect on an economy.
LOL how backwards is that comment. Without all the immigrant labor, much of it undocumented, middle and upper class, mostly white Americans wouldn't be able to afford the McMansions they now have, or practically anything else.

"I went in yesterday, and there was a television screen, and I said, 'This is genius.' Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine — of Ukraine — Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that's wonderful," Trump said when asked about the news. "I said, 'How smart is that?' And he's going to go in and be a peacekeeper."

"I knew Putin very well. I got along with him great. He liked me. I liked him," Trump said. "I mean, you know, he's a tough cookie, got a lot of the great charm and a lot of pride. But the way he — and he loves his country, you know? He loves his country."

I have never once referred to my service, what I did, where etc. But by damnit-some of you are so naive it’s maddening.

Just like “there were no WMD’s in Iraq” funny, because I was on 3 separate raids that found stockpiles. You know the dumb arses that regurgitate that nonsense? A blissfully ignorant one who wasn’t there and is a parrot for biased, agenda driven media.

I spent time in the Ukraine training their military-alone with Norway, Kosovo, Iceland -I could keep going. The point is, if you truly think that what is happening currently has something to do with the previous administration, your are lost and there is no hope for you. Willingly turning a blind eye to what massive damage this current administration has done in short order is terrifying. When our hate is so strong that we do not see clearly and can separate truth from lies is the beginning of the end of US.

If any of you are disillusioned so much that you feel the FACTUAL impacts of higher gas prices, record inflation, total disregard for law enforcement, the most devastating smack in the face to those AMERICANS that died in Afghanistan, the largest border crisis ever, to include the night flights that are STILL TAKING PLACE of both illegals that are covid positive, AND refugees that are unvetted pouring into our country nightly, largest spike in murder and rape in modern times, then I hope you understand the cost of your ignorance and how it will effect your family and mine.

Over and out.
Amen @Team4LongGun , and top it off with $30T in debt for my children and grandchildren. Meanwhile we’re arguing about men dominating women’s sports. My father in Arlington is rolling in his grave. Time to stop the bullshit.

All monosyllabic for ya…

They do jobs you don’t want to do but still need to be done.

I should not have engaged here. I will not likely win any of you over to my way of thinking and you’ll continue to not read.
If people get off the govt tit they will get hungry enough they will start doing those jobs. Those that employ them get hurt enough in the pocket book they would quit employing them. You are spitting in the face of every person who has went the proper way and got citizenship. We employ h2b visa guys who hate the illegals as they make their life way harder doing it the wrong way

How do we know the extent to which immigrant labor is boosting the economy if much of it is undocumented?

Weakness is the true sign of a failed president. Weakness is what we now have in the White House. But honestly it really would not matter who is in the white house, Putin could care less what he and the entire world think, he will do as he pleases and continue to snub his nose at the USA/world. I agree with a previous statement, Putin does want to go back to the old USSR and likely will, one break away territory at a time. And frankly no body will be able to stop him with sanctions, sanctions only hunt the little people and like all politician, little people mean nothing to him.

My wife drives a Prius. So does my daughter. They are safe, reliable and save us a ton on gas. There is a good reason they are so popular. I'm a conservative. I have no issue with being conservative in how I use fuel. Not sure why any conservative would see that as a problem, especially if they are a hunter and it could be better for the environment.

The amount of footage and information that’s being put out over Instagram and Telegram is amazing.
Hopefully Ukraine get their feet underneath them. Between Instagram and then watching the markets today not getting a whole lot of work done.

Since 2020 I have been saying this is all apocalyptical, at least the Catholic side of me. Pestilence, natural disasters, war. You see where this is going.

On the other hand, never has our country had to face this with such WEAK leadership!
You can call it weak leadership, I disagree! But weak leadership doesn’t fight wars. Strong men do! Have a good day!
