Re: Stand against trump's everything
I still think the most effective protest is to keep saying "Republican" when you say "Trump." Make it clear that every Trump fiasco is a Republican fiasco. Not just because they nominated and voted for him, but because they control the House, Senate and every way to censure or control him. They are utterly responsible for him.
By the 2008 election Republicans were often declaring that Bush II wasn't their fault because he "wasn't really a Republican." Let those in Congress know that they won't get away with it this time. Unless they take action, they're tied to the mast when the ship goes down.

Re: Stand against trump's everything
Pitiful lie when busted, again. It was a specific response to billy.pilgrim and we all know that the accusation of paid lefty protestors is routine among the Nazi/KKK crowd.

trump made him say it.
Trump: “We had the safest border in the history of our country - or at least recorded history. I guess maybe a thousand years ago it was even better.”

In today's episode of Liar, Pig-Ignorant or Delusional? - Republican Edition:
PolitiFact: Donald Trump wrong that Charlottesville counter-protesters didn't have a permit
Permit was signed, sealed and delivered.

People are crazy and times are strange. I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range.
I used to care, but, things have changed.

Re: Stand against trump's everything
That depends on who is in the White House. Bush II's administration was notorious for hiring religious "university" graduates to staff various departments. And as Soviet-style political officers to ensure that NASA and others didn't contradict White House policy by stating that the world was older than 6000 years.Boatrocker wrote: ↑Sun Aug 20, 2017 5:56 pmThose diplomas are likely worthless, anyhoo.k9nanny wrote: ↑Sun Aug 20, 2017 11:20 amA pointed message to Falwell and 45.

Re: Stand against trump's everything
They're worthless. I would never hire a Liberty graduate- religious freedom, you know. Besides, it's only a symbolic gesture, as returning diplomas is not the same as voiding degrees.Boatrocker wrote: ↑Sun Aug 20, 2017 5:56 pmThose diplomas are likely worthless, anyhoo.k9nanny wrote: ↑Sun Aug 20, 2017 11:20 amA pointed message to Falwell and 45.

However, as I despise all things Falwell, even a single returned diploma would make me smile.

Returning is pretty lightweight. They should burn them in public.k9nanny wrote: ↑Sun Aug 20, 2017 9:08 pmThey're worthless. I would never hire a Liberty graduate- religious freedom, you know. Besides, it's only a symbolic gesture, as returning diplomas is not the same as voiding degrees.

If Soros will finance me, I'll organize a mass diploma burning.

Re: Stand against trump's everything
Back in the day, burning a draft card meant something because it was illegal; burning a flag meant something because even if it wasn't really Constitutionally illegal, people thought so. Burning a diploma means nothing. You're still a graduate of the school and the officials at the school don't even know who did it. Returning them, on the other hand is at least a message directly to the school - identifying yourself and creating something tangible the school has to deal with even if their "dealing" is to toss them in the recycle. Return them and tell everybody you did it. And go back to school somewhere for a real degree from a real university.

Re: Stand against trump's everything
By "public" I meant with a crowd and TV cameras. Or, combine the two, and live feed on the steps of the Admin. Bldg. Falwell doesn't care if he gets pieces of paper in the mail.
