Some of the Christian Evangelical Churches in Contra Costa County have sent members to polling places to "observe." I told an ex golfing buddy of mine who volunteered for that gig that if I was at the polls and a guy like him said one word to me to intimidate me that I would smack him upside his f@ucking head……and then ask for a jury trial.

Of course you would. Now imagine if the "observers" were getting up in your grill, shouting at you through bullhorns and blowing whistles.

now also imagine that you are immune from prosecution and have a gun and are wearing a mask

Now imagine you don't have a badge that lets you act in the interest of the federal government deployed to uphold immigration law.

Great song by Tom Macdonald. I bet the comments about a song praying for them will be very rational lol.

Semi-funny-but-true story: It was the California primary for the 2nd presidential election I ever voted in. I was still using my parents' house as my official residence, as I was just getting out of Cal and was still sort of a transient. The known-arch-conservative of the neighborhood always worked at the polling place. Back then, the community was majority GOP (now flip-flopped).

I go up to get my ballot. He starts to hand me a Republican one and I told him I wanted the Dem ballot. He smiled and said, "You mean the Communist ballot?" I was pretty shocked. Speechless, in fact. But as I left, dropping my ballot in the box, I told him, "Mr. C_ _ _ _ _, I just canceled out your votes on the propositions." If he was amused by my jocularity, he did not show it.

You had me going. I thought you called him Harry Da Souza's favorite obscenity.

So, calling liberals "Communists" is cool, but calling fascists "fascists" is too far?

Further evidence that the right has no moral compass - just grievance and a desire to cause suffering amongst the opposition.
Conservatives are not necessarily stupid, but most stupid people are conservatives...
I never meant to say that the Conservatives are generally stupid. I meant to say that stupid people are generally Conservative.

The pollster referred to the ballot as "communist", not the person. No need to be sensitive today.
