Oh, Oh, looks like sombody(ies) with sensitive eyes and feelings do not like Free Thinking/Responsible Individuals articulating at least somewhat Creative and Original Thought outside of the Liberal Fiends, er, Liberal Friends demanded mind and activity control.

 

“It isn't so much that liberals are ignorant. It's just that they know so many things that aren't so.” 
― Ronald Reagan

 

“Government is not a solution to our problem government is the problem.” 
― Ronald Reagan

 

“Someday, the realm of liberty and justice will encompass the planet. Freedom is not just the birthright of the few, it is the God-given right of all His children, in every country. It won't come by conquest. It will come, because freedom is right and freedom works. It will come, because cooperation and good will among free people will carry the day.” 
― Ronald Reagan, The Quest for Peace, the Cause of Freedom

 

“Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women.” 
― Ronald Reagan

 

“They tell us we must learn to live with less, and teach our children that their lives will be less full and prosperous than ours have been; that the America of the coming years will be a place where — because of our past excesses — it will be impossible to dream and make those dreams come true. I don't believe that. And, I don't believe you do either. That is why I am seeking the presidency. I cannot and will not stand by and see this great country destroy itself. Our leaders attempt to blame their failures on circumstances beyond their control, on false estimates by unknown, unidentifiable experts who rewrite modern history in an attempt to convince us our high standard of living, the result of thrift and hard work, is somehow selfish extravagance which we must renounce as we join in sharing scarcity. I don't agree that our nation must resign itself to inevitable decline, yielding its proud position to other hands. I am totally unwilling to see this country fail in its obligation to itself and to the other free peoples of the world.” 
― Ronald Reagan

 

“If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on earth.” 
― Ronald Reagan

 

“Remember that every government service, every offer of government - financed security, is paid for in the loss of personal freedom... In the days to come, whenever a voice is raised telling you to let the government do it, analyze very carefully to see whether the suggested service is worth the personal freedom which you must forgo in return for such service.” 
― Ronald Reagan

 

“If more government is the answer, then it was a really stupid question.” 
― Ronald Reagan

 

“Socialism only works in two places: Heaven where they don't need it and hell where they already have it.” 
― Ronald Reagan

 

And, notably:

 

“There are no such things as limits to growth, because there
are no limits to the human capacity for intelligence,
imagination, and wonder.” 
― Ronald Reagan

So, OK, in Mexifornia, er, California one could get a traffic ticket for “Display Of Speed And Power”. Anyone remember that???!!! Apparently, some folks loved to be the first at a stop light. When the light when from red to green, they would rev the engine, dump the clutch, burn ‘em off, and run ‘em through the gears...............second gear scratch....................third gear scratch (maybe)........................then (just maybe if everything was just right) fourth gear scratch. Well, OK, racing off the stop light, too.

 

So, a law to issue the “Display Of Speed And Power”.

 

I don’t think anyone will every get a ticket here at DinarVets for “Diplay Of Intellectual Speed And Power” but may get a few honorary rubies along the way. So, for the sensitive eyes and feeling folks - Have At It!!!

 

Otherwise, Enjoy AND Have A Nice Day!!!

 

Well, OK, I did copy and paste notable and worthy quotes here but big whoop. These are notable and worthy quotes. Now, who could argue with THAT???!!! The Rubymeister(s)???!!!

I think Martha MacCallum brings up some outstanding points starting at 24:30.

 

Entering The United States Of America illegally and bringing minors over should be a very serious crime for causing the minors to also break the law. The parents and all the other adults should be charged accordingly with the most severe penalties for contributing to the delinquency of one or more minors and charged for each count of delinquency per minor.

 

Another way is to prevent them all from entering The United States Of America illegally in the first place!!!

 

OK everybody, chant with me now:

 

BUILT THAT WALL.......................

 

BUILT THAT WALL.......................

 

BUILT THAT WALL.......................

 

And so on and so forth...............

Just by coincidence the majority of articles you post are "I Hate America" articles....give it a rest. A portion of garnering respect....is to own who & what you are. If  the majority of articles that I posted were Pro KKK...what do you think sane folks would surmise? Oh but wait.....I know some black folk - sic

"up to the individual to read it or not"..... I 100% agree. We have Luigi & Rockfish here at DV, one that brings trash from other sites and has taken a lot of heat & Rockfish that spews hate on our investment/speculation.....difference between those two & Umbertino they have no issue standing behind their posts....another words NOT hiding who they are & what they believe. Umbertino now hides his "I Hate America" articles between other articles and presents as one. Cowardly IMO. He's entitled to his opinions/views as is anyone, I just ask don't be skeerd to admit who/what u are.

You are (Caz) certainly and obviously entitled to your absolutely legitimate opinions ( which I respect but  might not agree with, depending on  the specific subject on a case by case basis....Meaning that at times I might also agree with them....)

 

 

Besides ( that's plain to see) I post articles concerning many different  Countries in the world...Whatever is able to catch my attention at the moment of me reading online
