The photo of the farm equipment is obviously a joke - dark humor perhaps, but a joke nonetheless - are you devoid of humor??


I wouldn't worry about it then.

Something tells me that this didn't go as OP planned.


What would have surprised me is someone saying "there is not a nickels worth of difference between the neo-rebs and the neo-nazis," and it getting 100 upvotes.

What did you think this proved?


Just a different perspective on the nazis/rebs than you tend to see on the Rant.


The independent media site Unicorn Riot has been doing great work showing just how dangerous the “Unite the Right” attendees are. Through leaks of chats among the white supremacists in preparation of the event in Charlottesville, we see yet more evidence that these men were out for blood.




Screenshots of preparation chats on Discord (from where they’re now banned) shows users specifically asking about the legality of running over counter-protesters with cars."




In the second screenshot, (above) user Tyrone says, "I know NC law is on the books that driving over protestors blocking roadways isn't an offense,” which is a reference to the North Carolina bill passed by its House of Representatives earlier this year. He follows up a meme featuring a photo of large farming equipment with the caption “Introducing John Deere's new multi-lane protester digestor” in all caps. His accompanying commentary? “Would be nice.

Despite what conservatives may say, the presence of counter-protestors didn’t force neo-Nazi James Alex Fields, Jr. to murder Heather Heyer. They were talking about running people over before they even stepped foot in Charlottesville. The casual way they discuss this violence shows that they were looking to harm people by any means necessary.”

Heroes to many on The Rant, I know.

I'm more than capable of explaining it. For you? Pass.


Please tell SecDef Mattis because no one's been able to figure it out for 16 years.

We disagree.


But are not able to articulate even a single sentence in explanation.


The Brits in Afghanistan.


It didn't end well.
How about this:

Check in if you want to BE one of the 4,000 troops -going- to Afghanistan.
Why can't some of you get this?

We shouldn't be in Afghanistan at all.

We had 100,000 troops there with a big foot print, air power, the whole shebang. We lost a lot of guys and accomplished nothing. We had a number of guys killed by 'friendly' Afghans.

Now we'll have more dead and accomplish nothing.

Obviously there are covert missions, but I am pretty sure you can't declare general troop deployments numbering in the thousands as top secret.

Anyone know the details on that?


At Camp LeJeune we were told to get off the streets when the Soviet satellites were over head. The S-2 officer would come down when they approached.

So.....you'd be wrong.

During World War two a whole phantom army was created. Real weddings would be announced but instead of the groom being in the Third Armored Division he would be listed as being in the 33rd Armored Division. Things like that.

Sherman was reported to own slaves after the war.



Sherman wouldn't let blacks in his army, let alone his household.

Slavery was outlawed throughout the United States on 12/6/65 with the passage of the 13th amendment.

Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.[1]

One of the biggest ideals was "state's rights," which is guaranteed by the constitution.


It just is not. The sovereignty of the United States lies upon the -people- not the states.



Don't claim to love this country and then lie about what it is and what stands for.
The whole fricking thing was useless and we have 2,500 dead.
I can read.

SF with B-52 support was all the U.S. troops we ever needed.
Best as I can tell Bammer is the only SEC team to ever forfiet a game and the only SEC team to ever have victories vacated.

And dirty. The way FSU was for so many years.

Shameful.

There needs to be enough noise made until that changes.
