Sadly very true, and only exacerbated in times of crisis when people turn to the government and the government is shown to be unable to cope, so they turn to less conventional parties...

When the right goes far, the turn into a (insert what you want)-phobic, pro church, anti-pleasure, semi nazi, semi-authoritan party that likes to goosestep.
But when the left goes far they turn into litteral pinko liberal hippie hippsters that think that solving the worlds problems means having a nice talk with a vegan meal, opening outside borders and wishfully thinking that the worst the immigrants can bring in will be solved by the collective love that would radiate from the population that would not need to work anymore for a living.



Fer crying out loud, I'm mostly left, I hug trees, I love flowers and would kill to prevent my social medicine being taken away from me, but what poses for a left these days would make Tito spin in his grave fast enough to alter the Earths rotation

And sometimes I do understand these people

Some years ago it was decided that our school, where I lived before, should remove pork and only serve Halal meat despite it was only ca 4-5 % pupil in these school.(can't remember the exact percentage but it was under 10 %.)

And many of our stores have removed some of the Christmas things-They have done this so the Muslims aren't getting offended.

Its not The Muslim I'm mad at, its our main-politicians and the main parties I'm mad at.

Saudi Arabia has executed the prominent Shia cleric Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr, the interior ministry said.
He was among 47 put to death after being convicted of terrorism offences, it said in a statement.

So this is how Saudi Arabia welcomes in the new year.

I don't hold out much hope for that being the case.

Oh I see, a political protest in an unoccupied building, far away from any innocent civilians with no violence or any hostages taken = TERRORISM! in the Oberon Book of Reality. Gotcha!

August does bring up a good point. After having read the case United States of America v. Dwight Lincoln Hammond, Jr., Steven Dwight Hammond and the current situation and actions by certain individuals and groups in Oregon. Their action does at the moment look much less than terrorism as defined by U.S. law and more like a 'protest' lead by an eccentric nut.

Well, it gets a little cold in Oregon. Cut the power and water and wait them out. They are gonna get a little hungry after a while.

What we don't need is another Waco.

Order them out, blockade, and wait, they're just begging to start a fight. The thing is as I see it, if they threaten anybody directly with their firearms it will be armed assault leading to convictions that will have their guns confiscated in the end.

Let's see how smart they are.
