Senses of humor.....
(in reply to bizgrrl)
I have a dark sense of humor. You win this one though. This ain't funny. I guess underground is probably where I needed to be to begin with.
No, it's not funny. I cannot
(in reply to fischbobber)
No, it's not funny. I cannot believe our elected officials are letting him get away with so much. I do what I can, but I'm not willing to get shot. It's quite frightening.
However, the Fox News reports indicate this administration is not in the wrong. Thus, the millions of Fox News viewers say the same thing. For example, an acquaintance and Republican Fox News viewer said the ICE Agent in Minneapolis was justified. I was shocked. But, I don’t know what Fox is reporting.
