I don't advocate shooting fascists. I stopped that right after Harvey Milk's assassin was... taken care of. Arresting fascists who are a threat to normal people, in the other hand... of that I do approve, even advocate. The armed assholes running around with assault weapons and threatening shopkeepers who are enforcing social distancing rules, should not be killed-- just arrested and dealt with seriously.
Yesterday, one of the floating death trap companies, Carnival, announced it is planning to start up it's watery killing machines again on August 1. There will be 8 ships sailing out of Florida and Texas. They hope the experiment goes well enough-- I wonder hat the metrics are-- so that they can get the whole fleet sailing by the end of August.

I was just 16 when I got my only paid job ever working for a political campaign. I operated the elevator in Bobby Kennedy's Senate campaign headquarters in Manhattan. I was thinking of Kennedy today in regard to the Trumpist terrorists' pictures I see parading around with their assault weapons protesting public health measures designed to save our country from the pandemic.

The Calculation by Chip ProserRNC Chairwoman Ronna Romney told the Washington Examiner that "no matter what, we will be having a physical convention-- or, a physical nominating process." I'm not sure what a 'physical nominating process' is, but she isn't the only Trumpist barking about bringing together large numbers of right wingers.
