It seems we all pretty much agree on the problems and the issues. Yet we're all to blame.

If you think about it, this has been going on for a very long time. The Socialists have been priming this country for 60 years or better. Little by little they pumped their propaganda into our schools, our media, etc., and they steadily increased their welfare programs at the cost of the working man/woman. Slowly over time they have created a very significant population that has grown dependent upon them and their "programs". While all this has been slowing and steadily progressing, no one, not even the Republicans, have stopped them. In the last several years it's accelerated to the fervor that we see today. A fervor that has caused anyone that opposes their agenda to cower in fear thus they be yelled and screamed at and called a derogatory name of some kind or another.

Sorry to say folks, there's no going back. It's over, we just haven't figured it out yet or perhaps we're too scared to admit it...

If Pine Ridge is a sovereign nation, what products do they sell to support themselves?


If I have to explain it then you have not been paying attention I think it has something to do with a land deal at the barrel of a gun! If it's so great/easy would you move there then?

The only Democratic spots that show up on the maps during the election no surprise if that's where your living comes from. Agree we are in a bad way that's why I could not understand how many guys just don't get the direction we are heading and how much we have lost and much more we have to lose.

Just heard Jessie Smollett is still working a perfect example of the double standard we have today. Rosanne was gone in days and this guy hangs on like new Velcro weeks later with no real outrage like it never happened!

until free men are willing to join one another in a unified effort to rid ourselves of these self serving, entitled officials and to take back the power we have over them instead of them having power over us. Until then, this will continue. I think we are far closer to the tipping point that will lead to another civil war, No war is without tremendous loss, yet, in this instance as in all of the previous ones, it is something that will need to happen for us to seize control over those elected for the people by the people.

Congress just voted in favor of illegal aliens over US citizens security, if that's not a wake up call what is? I think we are past the tipping point.

Never would pass judgement on anyone, situation or agency be it hospital business or government until I sat in a court and or had all the information. As far as the Indians well, we put them there I can offer some sympathy for what they ended up with. Yeah they have had a opportunities, but in a lot of ways we keep them there through enabling. Me, Im glad I was born in America, better off just being born here than 80% of the world and glad I was born white there is a difference sad to say and I doubt it will ever change. There is a reason people want to be here legal or illegal and a lot of folk that live here born and raised never seem to take hold of the opportunities and there abilities.

I watched a guy do just that once. then he stood in drive way with shot gun when fire dept showed up. Told them they would not trespass. Been years ago though!

Burnt it because he caught his wife cheating on him. Left her here with a pile of ashes and disappeared back to Tennessee or Kentucky? Can't remember which.


You must have some really incompetent law enforcement there that allowed someone to get away with arson and threatening with bodily harm EMS people and be able to get away back to wherever. He would have gotten SWATed here. Not much tolerance for threatening firefighters with a gun.....

PCR, I'm about to sell my properties and run, as the taxes keep going up and up. Doubled this last go-round. At some point, it's going to become unaffordable to own property. I have a family member who bought a section of land in '05 for 450k, now it's assessed at 1.5 mil. At this rate how long can a person afford to own land?


There was a quarter section of farmland between "big city" here and one of the suburbs 5 miles away. Must have had some sloughs on it because only about 120 acres were tillable. I looked at the auction flyer. The owner paid a grand less than I did in property taxes a year on my 5 bedroom house I built in bedroom town in 2008. I contacted the auction company afterwards to see how much that quarter went for, $1.2 million. Sure, the previous owner had to pay a commission % for selling it and probably had to pay capital gains on the difference between what it was bought for in the past (although there's some ways around lessening that bite) and the amount it was sold for. But, still, I imagine a much nicer return on investment than I'll get paying my residential property tax every year. But, I'll still make coin on this house when I move from here. I don't shed tears for farm and ranch land owners paying their property taxes at agricultural rates versus what the assets are worth, at least on paper.

if you own a house, no liens against it yet but one is inevitable, so you burn it down, tell the fireman they cant trespass, what law have you broken? county burn ban maybe? Is that even a misdemeanor?
