OT: Texas Star Party?

Posted By Jim Moscheck

I plan on going after I retire. I can see doing a whole years worth of observing at just the TSP and the Winter Star Party. I've been to Oki-Tex, too, and that one is really good, too. If you go to to all three they are spaced out pretty well to see the whole sky.

I think you got my message.  Don't mention my family members again.  You want to go toe to toe with me, that's fine.  You can shut your mouth about anyone in my family.  Got that Jack?  wink
Gee Rich, I believe it was you who originally brought up your sister back when you got the shot. You said you did it for her. What a great guy you are.

Just because you're not sitting in a Gulag somewhere, for speaking out against your gov't....

I couldn't care less what you think of cops.  I really don't, however I'll be happy to point it out, and the differences in our viewpoints.

And aside from the fact that I believe the violent rioters who went to the Capitol that day and attacked cops should be in jail and charged with crimes, there is NO comparison between the Riot on Jan 6th. and the violence that occurred around the nation by the VIOLENT Left.

You stated this:   "a riot that was just as bad as anything that happened during the summer protests"

Wrong, it wasn't even CLOSE to as bad as what occurred during your Leftist's "summer of love".  

Apparently, you're unable to discern the difference between MURDER of cops and civiilians ALL during the summer by VIOLENT leftist anarchists in Democrat run cities around the nation, and the violence committed by of a group of crazies on that day.

Let me educate you on the facts.  Here they are:

Fact:  On Jan 6th, Not one person was MURDERED by any Donald Trump supporter.

Fact:  On Jan 6th, the Capitol was not burned to ground by arsonists.

Fact:  On Jan 6th, not one cop was MURDERED by any Donald Trump protestor.

Fact:  On Jan 6th, there was not $2,000,000,000 worth of damage to Private bldgs, businesses, and gov't businesses.

Fact:  On Jan 6th, people did not steal and loot private property to the tune of $100s of MILLIONS of dollars.

Now compare that to the VIOLENT Leftist riots all through the summer of love.

Compare that to cops like David Dorn being MURDERED by VIOLENT Leftist rioters and then LIVE STREAMED on Facebook as they lay dying on a sidewalk.

Compare that to 141 bldgs being BURNED to the ground by VIOLENT Leftist rioters in Minneapolis.

Compare that to the 100s of innocent people who owned businesses in Democrat cities all over the nation and who were beaten and murdered by VIOLENT Leftist rioters during the summer of love.

Compare that to the 6 cops in Dallas who were murdered several years back by a BLM criminal Thug and the Left didn't give a damn about them.

Did you give a damn then?  I did.

I spoke up about it here, did YOU?  Did any other Leftist here speak up about it?

Answer: No.

The one difference that did delineate and make the Jan 6th rioter different than the Violence that occurred all through the summer, is that on Jan 6th it occurred against Nancy Pelosi and THEN she found it to be threatening.

When it occurred all over the nation by YOUR VIOLENT Leftist THUGS, her comment was "ahh.... people will do what they do"
Remember that.

Remember that when ordinary citizens were being killed ALL over the country by HER side of the political aisle, SHE DID NOT GIVE A DAMN!

Those were HER words when the violence was occurring.  She said "ahh.... people will do what they do"  

What a sickening Vile lowlife Nancy Pelosi is.

Here's the difference between me and you.  

When the Capitol Bldg was attacked, I was disgusted and I came on here and said so.  I said that those violent losers should be shot.  

Those were MY words.

When the VIOLENT Leftist rioters in Portland were being arrested YOU came on here and compared said cops to Nazi SS.

You took the side of the VIOLENT rioters.

I took the side of the cops.

Deal with that fact. 

And get this in your twisted head. 

Those VIOLENT rioters at the Capitol that day weren't MY people, they were thugs and I spoke out against them, the violent ones that day.

When did you EVER come on here and criticize the violent rioters on the left?

Name ONE SINGLE day that you did that?

You can't because you didn't. 

You minimized it, like all the other Leftists here. 

So don't tell me that I support the violence through silence.

YOU do that.

Feel free to refute any fact there. 

I posted many.   wink
Rich, I got to admit. You are a legend in your own mind.

The reason I don't post as much as I would like is because instead of any discussion all we get are beatdowns. A win at all costs to own the other side mentality.

I for one am getting real tired of the polarization in this country. Both sides are a little good and both sides are little bad. At least that's the way it used to be. Republicans voting for infrastructure and then being threatened by their own side? What if it was a good deal for their states and their constituents were for it? Did you hear the recording of the threat to Fred Upton R Michigan? Despicable.

YOU would support the MURDER of Donald Trump.  

I know you would. 

You would laugh about it amongst your leftist buddies. 

So don't give me your God Damned Bullshit decrying the polarization of the country.  YOU and YOURS are responsible for Everything that is going wrong with this nation and ALL the f'in violence that is occurring because YOU and YOURS CONDONED it pal!

As usual, Greg's comments are incorrect and unsubstantiated. Here's the AP analysis of what's actually in the bipartisan bill that will be signed into law on Monday:
ROADS AND BRIDGES
"The bill would provide $110 billion to repair the nation’s aging highways, bridges and roads. According to the White House, 173,000 total miles or nearly 280,000 kilometers of America’s highways and major roads and 45,000 bridges are in poor condition. And the almost $40 billion for bridges is the single largest dedicated bridge investment since the construction of the national highway system, according to the Biden administration."
PUBLIC TRANSIT
"The $39 billion for public transit in the legislation would expand transportation systems, improve accessibility for people with disabilities and provide dollars to state and local governments to buy zero-emission and low-emission buses. The Transportation Department estimates that the current repair backlog is more than 24,000 buses, 5,000 rail cars, 200 stations and thousands of miles of track and power systems."
PASSENGER AND FREIGHT RAIL
"To reduce Amtrak’s maintenance backlog, which has worsened since Superstorm Sandy nine years ago, the bill would provide $66 billion to improve the rail service’s Northeast Corridor (457 miles, 735 km), as well as other routes. It’s less than the $80 billion Biden — who famously rode Amtrak from Delaware to Washington during his time in the Senate — originally asked for, but it would be the largest federal investment in passenger rail service since Amtrak was founded 50 years ago."
"ELECTRIC VEHICLES
"The bill would spend $7.5 billion for electric vehicle charging stations, which the administration says are critical to accelerating the use of electric vehicles to curb climate change. It would also provide $5 billion for the purchase of electric school buses and hybrids, reducing reliance on school buses that run on diesel fuel."
"INTERNET ACCESS
"The legislation’s $65 billion for broadband access would aim to improve internet services for rural areas, low-income families and tribal communities. Most of the money would be made available through grants to states."
"MODERNIZING THE ELECTRIC GRID
"To protect against the power outages that have become more frequent in recent years, the bill would spend $65 billion to improve the reliability and resiliency of the power grid. It would also boost carbon capture technologies and more environmentally friendly electricity sources like clean hydrogen."
AIRPORTS
"The bill would spend $25 billion to improve runways, gates and taxiways at airports and to improve terminals. It would also improve aging air traffic control towers."
WATER AND WASTEWATER
"The legislation would spend $55 billion on water and wastewater infrastructure. It has $15 billion to replace lead pipes and $10 billion to address water contamination from polyfluoroalkyl substances — chemicals that were used in the production of Teflon and have also been used in firefighting foam, water-repellent clothing and many other items."
"PAYING FOR IT"
"The five-year spending package would be paid for by tapping $210 billion in unspent COVID-19 relief aid and $53 billion in unemployment insurance aid some states have halted, along with an array of smaller pots of money, like petroleum reserve sales and spectrum auctions for 5G services."

Note Greg's comment:  " I am frankly surprised someone hasnt been shot over it yet."
And then he decries the "polarization" in the country. Sheesh...




"
If all they watch is OAAN, or whatever it's called, Fox, Newsmax, or Breitbart is it surprising they don't know what's in the bill?

Fox News constantly rails against the vaccines, but they don't tell you everyone who works there is either vaccinated or has to be tested daily in order to keep their jobs. Sounds like a mandate to me.

You think I can't recognize your childish little taunts, in your attempts to get under my skin?

Of course I do and you're successful which is why I'm telling you, leave my family members out of your responses to me.

Once again I'll just say I hope we are clear.   smile
You must really be embarrassed by them. I'll say your sister has the smarts in your family. You and your brother? Not so much.
