    How disappointed they must have been at the unite the right rally. That one was a fizzle.

    They got to say "these nazi fascist got to go hey hey ho ho" to a couple dozen poor saps that showed up.

    Gavin thinks the purge was because of the Hollywood star stunt in California. The faction (a period boys affiliate) printed up final walk of fame Donald Trump stars and plastered a dozen of them on the Hollywood walk of fame. Which after the petty actions of the powers that be was hilarious and everybody loved it. They started selling them to others.

    I sincerely hope that's the reason.

    well, this censoring crap boils down to they think social media caused them to lose the election to Trump.

    They don't realize it's their contempt for Americans that caused Trump you win.

    Flynn is accused of lying to the FBI during an interview with stzrok

    But thats an interview that never would have happened if flynn were not working for trump

    And an interview that other FBI agents did not consider flynn to be lying

    It had nothing to do with the stated reason for the mueller witchhunt which was alleged trump-russia collusion during the 2016 presidential campaign

    And there was a bery simular story with manifort

    I've already mentioned these services. A tax on fuel pays for roads to drive on. A property tax pays for police and fire depts to protect them.

    Only if you were really smart.

    Only what is required that the private market can't or won't do. The emphasis is on required.

    Congratulations, you, like everyone else that defends big governments, brought up a gov service that is actually required. The judicial system protects against force, fraud or coercion.

    I've mentioned thousands of them. Most of the developing world has concepts of ownership without large governments.

    So you want to tax me to pay for someone elses legal services? Sounds like socialism to me. And who decides what government services are required. Not surprised at all your rational defense is my taxes are good and yours are theft. Lol What a child you are.

    Where did I say that?

    Judicial system paid for by usage taxes is far from socialism.

    Yes, usage taxes are better than progressive income taxes toward universal healthcare. If you receive a good or service, pay for it. It's not uncommon for those with narrow minds to deride what they can't currently understand as a means to avoid hard introspection.

    Clearly, you can't understand what a usage tax is.

    I'd never heard of them before,

    Proud Boy tattoo. Proud Boys is an American social-political conservative movement which The New Yorker described as a “pro-Western fraternal organization” for men who “refuse to apologize for creating the modern world.” The group was founded by libertarian/conservative podcaster Gavin McInnes in 2016.

    I'm not going to call you a liar because it's highly probable
    you know nothing about this group. You just love to spout off without any evidence but it's an inclusive multi-ethnic group which you obviously never investigated and the group is "violent" only when responding to Antifa violent provocations.
    Your post is the essence of know nothing cliches being passed off as " knowledge".

    Not at all. They are the anit Antifa and they practice self defense when attacked
    and never provoke violence. Wake up and get something right.

    And you should consider how your uninformed blather makes you look. But I bet you don't care.

    Clearly you don't understand how to answer simple questions. Nor do you understand obvious concepts such as the inability of usage taxes to adequately pay for a system that must deal with people who might or even often not have the ability to pay, like the criminal justice system.

    You don't think the criminal justice system has to deal with poor people? Poor people make up the bulk of the people who go through it and often times they can't afford court fees let alone a lawyer. How do you maintain a criminal justice system on usage fees?

    Court cost. Hell, the average current county probation system in this country is a local government piggy bank off the backs of the poor. Dude seriously, there is an answer for every big government ploy because big government ploys are immoral and terrible ideas.

    Court fees don't come close to the 80 something Billion dollars it cost to jail criminals, never mind what it costs to police and prosecute. Court fees have been on the rise of late but most of that revenue goes to making up county short falls and a lot of the time, especially with poor defendants who can't pay the fees or fines they end up incarcerated which costs tax payers even more than the money the defendants owed originally. From the link I'll provide down below the actual cost when we take into account police and courts, housing and medical for inmates, it comes to over 100 billion annually and that's the low estimate. Meanwhile civil asset forfeiture brought in, let's be generous and say 5 billion a year. Usage fees are an inadequate way to fund the necessary aspects of government and you have not provided one piece of evidence to suggest usage fees could come anywhere near provide the revenue necessary for government to function.
