    You couldn't have thrown in "humming Far Above Cayuga's Waters" to top it all off?
    That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

          Thanks for actually reading it, Bass.

          I didn't call Kepler an "idiot", but I did accuse him of being yet another bully on this echo-chamber of a thread, while not even considering the fact that rural Republicans have genuine complaints about being ignored as "rubes".

          I do live in a back-water that went 61% for the dope-in-chief, yet I know very few locals who sound as intolerant or as hateful as does much of the vitriol on here. Picking nits -on either side of the aisle- is just further dividing our society, and that's the last thing we need right now.

          We have huge issues to deal with (climate change, income-inequality, Iran, election-meddling, etc.) Yet, both fringes of the political spectrum seem content to snipe from afar, just to score a few cheap points here or there.

          FWIW, my favorite candidate is Pete B. Eminent qualifications, and a (nearly) perfect mind. But I doubt that he's electable at this point. Next time around, his chances should be much better. The job right now is to unseat Trump, and that's really all there is to it.

          Not a big fan of wishy-washy Biden, but he's easily the best hope right now.

            Funny enough, I'm getting back into poker (it's a free app, but people seem to actually play serious, which is all I want).
            Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                  There will be like 10 people at the parade, 10,000 in counter protest. Love it.

                    This is another reason to give it to them. It's like letting the Illinois Nazis march. Grant the permit, then come and counter-protest. Grind their faces in their irrelevance.

                      Meanwhile, in Boston, the city approved their permit, but the police haven't given them another permit they need. They also haven't received the permit for their "entertainment."

                        To the 10, the 10,000 are advertising. It's right for sane people to outspeak them, but I'm sure the 10 hope the 10k will show up.

                          They shouldn't. When the Nazis embarked on the "Free Speech" tour after they murdered Heather Heyer in Charlottesville, they inexplicably decided to start in Boston. A dozen Nazis showed up and 20,000+ protesters. The Nazis slunk away before the event was even scheduled to begin and the entire movement died. We ended that movement and we'll end this one.

                              That is good to hear. Hopefully you are right.

                                This is why I say let them have their little parades and wave their flags. Not only is it their legal right, but there will be countless others ready to exercise THEIR free speech in the process.
