You took up a whole page complaining about criminals and then you praise one at the end

@PatrickL
Really? So, can you list these crimes? I mean, you're known for demanding substantiation, so how about you provide a little more than TDS talking points. Give us some facts - maybe include how enforcing long standing, federal laws is criminal.

Facts - or fake news - it depends on the level of critical thinking possessed by the reader.

viewforum.php?f=69 We have a place for this, and comments probably isn't it. You have to figure someone who puts this in every summit log is looking for the fight. At least the forum is contained.

Critical enough?

Your perception doesn't equal fact.

@Mountain_Rat
Those have nothing to do with the two proofs of criminal activity I shared with you

You're right Jim

@PatrickL
I knew you'd find a way to side-step, but they do show the final trajectory of the cases you pointed out, and tell a little bit about those who were ""Trumping Up"" charges.

The US media is FLOODED with anti-Trump propaganda that it is pretty disgusting. Honest journalism rarely exists these days. 2/3 of my trip report was venting about how effin stupid the laws and the culture is, especially in places like Cali and Colorado. I will never live in any of those places. Trump is not perfect but he's taking a strong stance against the criminal BS, the insanity and the lawlessness that's been going on for years, especially in some of those places. Probably if I didn't mention Trump, nobody would have any comments about the lawlessness that I saw while in Colorado.

Does anyone really think criminals should be allowed to steal $2,000 worth of groceries at a grocery store? The end result is these store locations will be forced to go out of business and more and more of America is going to be turned into a SLUM. I hate watching it happen and I can see clearly what president is FOR law and order, and what president seems to be AGAINST law and order. Yes, it is a state and/or County issue, but none of the law abiding citizens seem to have any influence on what laws are enforced or not.

@PatrickL - I have a simple question for you and this question has nothing to do with Trump. Do you think criminals should be allowed to steal $2,000 worth of groceries at a grocery store and get away with it?

@Mountain_Rat
Like Trump always said it was a witch hunt and he was right about that. When the FBI raided Trump's home, it was all about destroying classified documents that incriminated crooked democrats. When 99% of the media is against someone and they are all repeating the same B.S. LIES, its time to turn off all the noise. The democrats are the REAL criminals.

I think everyone in the Country knows about the crooked Biden crime family... The Hunter Biden gun charges were just the tip of the iceberg.

I think everyone in the Country knows the 2020 election was STOLEN. That's probably the biggest crime of ALL. Pure TREASON!

@Jim
Before the election, I simply wrote 'Trump 2024'. After the election, I wrote something like 'Go Trump, DOGE, etc....'.

I wasn't looking for a fight or trying to provoke anyone, just exercising my patriotic opinion.

While I was in that feces hole Colorado Springs, I saw an insane amount of lawlessness and stupidity that angered me enough to write that rant. I definitely do not write stuff like that on every summit registry, but after seeing theft and talking to store employees about it the night before, I had to write about my experience.

@PatrickL
Manhattan / NYC - the biggest liberal hell hole on the planet. There's a reason why these witch hunts were started in these areas where 2/3 of the population is brainwashed, part of the democrat machine, and/or living in a bubble. I don't trust anything that comes out of that crooked city.

@Mike_W one of the best cities in the country, let alone the world, my guy. Some open mindedness goes a long way. But quite frankly, it’s clearly not for everyone, just like California - more for me and those who don’t watch Faux News.

@PatrickL
Have you lived there before? I used to live and work in Western NY, Philly, Boston, etc... and got sick of paying high taxes to support the parasites and leeches and the crooked politicians in those places. Every big city has them and the biggest cities like NY have more of them. I don't think it's right to give parasites and leeches free housing and 70 K per year. That's why the hard working people are leaving those high tax states. Cali has a lot of beautiful nature but your state has the highest state income tax in the Country which goes up as high as 13% for higher earners. Keep in mind that's only just the state tax. Assuming you have a job and a house you are also paying Federal tax, Social Security tax, Medicare tax, Real Estate tax, and maybe a city tax depending on where you live. We're all paying sales tax, vehicle tax, and the biggest tax of all - INFLATION. The whole Country has been hit hard with that over the last 5 years. AZ has a FLAT 2.5% income tax so it HELPS. I have friends in New Jersey who pay $30 K in real estate per year. That's called communism. Punish the hard working people so some people can live for free. Socialism works great until you run out of other people's money. Then it all collapses and what you have in the end is a 3rd World hell hole / SLUM.

@PatrickL
As for open-mindedness, I have open-mindedness about the good that Trump is doing for this Country. You should try being open-minded about Trump's plan just for once and don't focus so much on opinionated news because REAL journalism is and has been DEAD for 30 years...

Again you avoided my question. Its a simple yes or no....

Do you think criminals should be allowed to steal $2,000 worth of groceries at a grocery store and get away with it?

I enjoy the hiking part. I lean toward having the political conversations in person over a coffee or a beer. Mt Rosa sounds like a fantastic hike that I would enjoy. As do a number of other hikes that Mike has posted this summer. The politics, whether on paper in a summit register or online in a triplog, can be a distraction from sharing an enjoyable hiking experience with other interested hikers. I'll stick to the agreeable baseline ""Hitler was bad."" Now, let's go outside and climb a mountain.

@Mike_W
I love wildfires and crime. I got dat liberal mental disorder!

@Jim
The answer to the worlds problems--- Goats, millions of them.

@PatrickL
I thought you would dodge the question, as liberals always do. Just wanted to know the logic behind Resist Smokey Bear. Serious question. Maybe there is no logic. Maybe your brain just runs on TDS and nothing else...

Saying resist smokey bear is like saying resist peace or resist freedom or resist everything good about America.

Maybe you should think about the TRUE MEANING of something before you jump on that bandwagon.

@Jim
The logo appears to say Resist Smokey Bear, which intuitively says to the average person that the Smokey Bear message is ignorant, wrong, useless, etc... I think you and I would agree that the average idiot camper needs to be educated to fully put out their campfire, not throw cigarettes, basically not be irresponsible with fire, etc... How can that be a bad message for anyone? Just think about the number of wildfires that were stopped because of the people who decided it might be a good idea to make sure the campfire was 'DEAD OUT'....

@PatrickL
I'd like to ask Patrick L, the self-proclaimed wildfire lover, what the hell he is resisting?

Michael Savage, from San Francisco, does say that extreme liberalism is truly a mental disorder. He's one of the smartest people on the planet in my opinion.

@the_eagle can you chatgpt ""what does the smoky bear resist logo represent"" for us? There seems to be some confusion!
