Some back sliding going on in the OC?

I don't think they're backsliding. They have always been a conservative area. What they're doing now is doubling down on stupid with this not having Pride month, Black History month, etc.

They're still trying ban books even after Newsom signed California AB 1708, which bans, book bans in schools.

I live in a repbublician shithole, no homeless encampments, no homeless that I've ever seen, very little crime, every service I need is within two miles of me, very little traffic, quiet neighborhood, polite friendly people everywhere I go. It's really nice. The democrat utopias must be incredible places to live. I can't even imagine how fantastic life must be living in the bosom of joy and prosperity. I envy you.
As long as your utopia discriminates against minorities I’m sure you are thrilled.

This thread has nothing to do with crime but erasing minorities from history.

I bet if I walked down the street in your utopia the neighbors would call the cops because those darkies don’t belong in our neighborhood

Well I'm really not referring to your location. I am referring to your mindset.
I know beautiful minded people in Republican Alabama that support diversity and are Republicans .
I know shithole people in Democrat California that want to ban books.
Unfortunately you seem to fall into the later category.

I was going to join the local Klan chapter but it turns out they require Egyptian cotton sheets, to rich for me.

Back in reality, I haven't seen or heard of any kind of discrimination or racism around here. I'm sure it exists, but it's bad manners so it's well hidden.
Another off the wall fact, the person who performed surgery on, and is caring for, my testicles, was a gentleman of color. While he's not a friend, I can assure you he's gotten closer to me than any other man on the planet.
So how about you take you take your weak kneed insults and shove them up your ass where they came from.

Merry Christmas, and a healthy and happy new to you and yours!

Merry Christmas to you too. I hope in the future you might be able to understand the plight of the have's and the have's and have nots.
There are many that have tried harder than you and it didn't work out. God bless that you didn't need to suffer like some of your fellow Americans.Honestly Merry Christmas Greenman. I wish the best for you and your family as an agnostic.

You live in a state that is literally (Mississippi) that is literally at the bottom in most state rankings about quality of life. You do live in a Republican shithole with lower life expectancy, poor governmental services, poor health care, poor education, lower income, etc, etc, etc.

But hey your FYGM from living and working in a state that had those things and then you bailed to a state where you wouldn't have to contribute is duly noted.

Old fuckers like you are a huge part of the problem.
just retired there as a broken, bitter old man with nothing better to do than walk between the Bingo Parlor and about 2 dozen Dollar Generals that make up his entire grocery opportunities. You know, "Access to stuff."

That's not entirely true. They have Piggly Wiggly grocery stores.

Actually I have but it's been awhile. It's where I got Armour pork brains for my scrambled eggs. ;)

Apparently, Amour stopped selling this years ago but if one is so inclined to eat this stuff, Rose brand still sells it.


Now inhaling areosolized hog brain tissue can make you sick. Whooda thunk? This is from workers making this nasty stuff.

Article from 2008
" Early last year, a number of workers at a pork processing plant in Austin, Minn., began reporting similar symptoms: weakness, fatigue, “heavy legs,” pain, and sensory disturbance. When doctors and state health officials investigated, it became clear that all the affected workers had been stationed in or near a portion of the plant where hog brains were liquefied using blasts of compressed air. Wait, does that mean it’s time for the Explainer to stop eating pork brains?

No, but inhaling them would be a bad idea. After months of study, it now seems fairly certain that breathing aerosolized hog brain tissue triggers an immune response in the human body that is responsible for these workers’ ailments"

"I let a minority touch my balls so I can't be racist" is a new one for sure.
Nice twist on the point, but it once again falls into the nether realm of what you want it to mean as opposed to what was actually said.
On the plus side, I'm sure your self esteem has lifted by the affirmation of your peers. It's like you got to sit at the cool kids table.

Meanwhile, in this back and forth between you and others replying to you, the ones that are being quiet and waiting for an "on topic" post or reply to this thread are the ones sitting at the adults table.

Parts of Orange County have long pined for the 4th Reich. Huntington especially.
They love their MMA. More like MMAGA. The whole sport thinks they owe Trump for his involvement BITD.
