    Big girl got a reaction from Alpha Wolf in Black AMERICAN's Perspective on National Athem   
    For those of you asking "How does the national anthem have anything to do with racial profiling and oppression. "
    The Star Spangled Banner was actually wrote as a poem by Author Francis Scott Key.  In it he openly celebrates the murder of slaves.
    The song itself was rooted in the celebration of slavery and the murder of Africans in America, who were being hired by the British military to give them strength not only in the War of 1812, but in the Battle of Fort McHenry of 1814. These black men were called the Corps of Colonial Marines and they served valiantly for the British military. Key despised them. He was glad to see them experience terror and death in war — to the point that he wrote a poem about it. A shortened version of that poem is now our national anthem.....
    No refuge could save the hireling and slave
    From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,
    And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
    O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
    We have cops out killing black people for no reason. We have white supremacists marching the streets and plowing through crowds and Trump calls them "good people". 
    I understand why they are taking a knee. I'm happy the NFL are supporting them. Something needs to change!

    Yes and no.  It only applies to International evacuations.  So it definitely does NOT apply to this situation.  Just like you don't need a passport (also a part of the procedures quoted) to travel to PR or from PR to other US territory.  But you are correct in that it would apply to US citizens being evacuated internationally.

    On Thursday morning, 
    This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up  reported that a State Department policy requires U.S. citizens to sign a promissory note for costs of an evacuation. But that rule only applies to U.S. citizens based internationally. Because Puerto Rico is U.S. territory, evacuations are not under the State Department's jurisdiction.

    Big girl reacted to new tobie in White House Visit   
    Kudos to Coach Steve Kerr, Steph Curry and the Warriors basketball team for refusing to visit a house that has one of the most decisive, disrespectful psychopaths in history in it. Its becoming a new trend. Respected people have to take this measure in behalf of their wives, children, family, relatives that may need the pre-existing condition cause with healthcare and hust believe in treating others equal and with decency. Only 39 months left untilll we bid farewell to this tyrant.

    Big girl reacted to Hagar in Secret Service out of money   
    Trump does have a large older family, and they're wealthy and travel a lot (I'd be cheap to guard).  The fact that he has 5 kids, 3 of which are married adds to the cost.  I can see where the Secret Service could be in a budget crunch.

    He admitted that he WAS a member of the kkk at one time. He apologized and said that he regretted it once he got older. When Hilliary met him, he wasn't a member, try again

    I could quote negative facrs on Obama and democrats everyday, but thats already being talking care of on this board. On negative info on Trump and republicans, the help wanted sign needs to be displayed . This raggedy congress has an agenda and it doesn't involve helping the middle class.

    He is so stupid. People love to get a rise out of him,  and he falls for it every time. His tweets are hilarious. My 15 year old attempts to get under my skin. I ignore him. I tnink people should continue to say things about him so that he can continue to be frustrated. This is so much fun.

    Big girl reacted to Fee Dee in Trump admits that he lied   
    I don't need to back them up, they are opinions, you may think they are silly and outlandish, but I noticed all you do is counter-punch and  you haven't  really said  much of anything except criticize the left. I'm new here and I haven't seen too many of you posts, I see there appears to be couple of thousands, maybe others  make more sense than the ones I have seen here, you think you can analyze me by what I post on this blog? Try again, you are dead wrong when you try to label me a hater! I love people, No I don't like Mr. Trump because he is the exact opposite of me and what I believe. I do however agree with him in that we need to lower the national debt, Not sure that he is being honest about that,

    but of course, the New York Times, Washington Post, etc. is "fake news."  Meanwhile, Trump has appeared on Alex Jones' show and given his outfit credentials.  Yes, Alex Jones...the fella who preaches Sandy Hook was a hoax by gun opponents and claims juice boxes are being filled with chemicals to make our children gay...

    Here"s an original thought. Jeff Sessions is a no good klansman, lying pos from whats becoming the most corrupt administration in the history of politics. If his ears didn't stick out so far he would get his head stuck up grab ums rear.

    If separation of church and state is totally done away with in this country, and it is very close to happening, we will see tyranny, persecution and strife like never before.   Thousands of years of history bear this out.

    Yet, the same people who "cant see anybody who supports the murder and mutilation of a breathing baby a Christian", support massive budget cuts to programs that help to sustain life, like foodstamps, TANF, and WIC. " We will force you to have the baby, but if he starves to death, that's your problem". Republicans are pro-birth not pro-life
