Well no one ever said that.Riding a bicycle makes one a leftist. In fact, if one does not drive a vehicle at least two time bigger and heavier than necessary, one is retrograde. Not possessing a petroleum consuming machine is doubtlessly Stalinist.
Or, so we are led to believe.
Plus everything is political. And everyone. Being a Christian is conservative. Liberals are atheists. All of them. All mass killers are liberals. Except that liberals don’t own guns so I’m not sure how that works. Maybe they’re conservatives when they buy a gun and then switch before they use it. All unemployed people are liberal. Conservatives have jobs.
But liberals do own guns, they are do as I say not as I do people. They are exempt. It's why rich liberals are never attacked. I don't see the left whining about Al Gore's wealth, or Tom Steyer or George Soros. Or anti gun Rosie ODonell who has an armed bodyguard for her kid. Why is he armed?
In general the left wants people on welfare for control. It's why they want illegals, people who are poor in a foreign land and have no clue on how things work.
Here’s yet another idiot conservative telling us all that liberals want people on welfare because they vote for Democrats. Liberals don’t want immigrants who are on welfare for their votes. Welfare recipients don’t vote. Most poor voters stay home.
FACT CHECK: Bernie Sanders And Whether Poor Americans Vote
The lower your income, the less likely you are to vote in the US. 2/3 of voters making
It is, just ask the people killed there in any number of attacks.According to Right Wing narrative England is full of terrorists and Muslim 'No-Go Cities'...or something.Hey, when I was younger I rode a bicycle damn near everywhere I went. Started cycling back in '86 and still going strong at 54. People in my various commands thought that I was totally nuts for not having a car. They thought I was even crazier when I cycled from one duty station to another.
Rode from Memphis TN to Jacksonville FL in 7 days.
Rode from Jacksonville FL to Newport RI in 12 days.
Rode from Newport RI to Norfolk VA in 5 days.
And, my average daily distance was anywhere from 50 to 100 miles/day, depending on whether or not it was an off day.
I don't fault these people for trying to do something noteworthy, but I do think that maybe they could have picked a better route.
I trekked all over France and England with no resources, though not by bike. Lotta walking. Overall it was the most enriching experience I've ever had.
Why not South Africa or India or Indonesia??? These 'progressive' racists always pick white countries with histories of Christianity to run around playing 'Hipster Road Doggz' in, never embracing 'Diversity' in their travels. Their anti-Trumpster Hollywood Hystericals also nearly all picked the same demographic countries they were all going to move to when they left America if Trump won, like New Zealand or Europe, as well. Then they whine about DA Evul Raycss whatevers, which is anybody who laughs that their silly hypocritical .asses. At least the idiots in the OP story actually went somewhere 'diverse', stupid as it was they at least had more honesty than these phonies here.
That being the case I think Pogo was very brave.
you may not give a shit people die to these crazies, but we do.
More people are killed every day in the USA by crazies with guns than die in terrorist attacks in Great Britain one year. And you don’t care about those people. They’re just the price you pay for 2nd Amendment rights.
The fear and paranoia right wing Americans have over radical jihadist terrorism is just laughable. They wet their pants daily over it. But then ignore the 38 gun murders that happen every day in the US, and the over 100,000 people who shot and recover from their wounds, every year.
American fixation of jihadi terrorism while ignoring murders and gun violence perpetrated by Americans would be laughable if it wasn’t so sad.
There really is no cure for stupid.
It's escapism fueled by, as readily just demonstrated, abject denial of reality. I've been far safer in Europe, or anywhere outside the US, than inside it. These morons are the slugs who wrap up in their tiny little paranoia cocoons never daring to venture out into the world to experience it. They're cowards.
