One of them never even took a shot, can’t even class that as an assassination attempt.

I know there’s no hard and fast solution. Education? But that will take time. Encouraging people to vote? But if we let all the fascists get away with it they’ll get in. Back in the 70s when I worked in a factory the hard line socialists always had a good turnout and got the vote at Union meetings etc. Those that were of a different opinion got shouted down so stopped going. The hardliners won.

Difficult times ahead.

I watched a Jamie Oliver series some years ago (when Obama was president) and Jamie was out overnight with some cowboys and cooking over a fire. They were chatting about governments or something and one of the guys said something like ‘You Brits get a woman, and we get a n*****.’ Cue Jamie’s shocked face. Later on in his tent he was visibly upset. Think he regretted going on that trip.

But when I suggested that perhaps we need to make sure people are mentally fit to vote, I’m a nazi. Keep letting the idiots vote and we’ll always be stuck with the lowest common denominator.

A lot of their own parents and grandparents are going to have to go then. The leopards will not go hungry.

They’ll be drinking champagne (or the Russian equivalent) in the Kremlin tonight. Putin and the KGB played the long game and won.

He’s nowhere near as clever as von Braun.
