Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Anybody But Trump Sentiment? Say WHAT?????

Okay,..I'll answer it for you.

It's a threat to shoot down any aircraft operating over a designated area.

Now,..to get an idea of how crazy such a suggestion coming from Presidential candidates is at this time, Russia is flying sorties against Islamic radicals in Syria,..and American presidential candidates are threatening them with a no fly zone in order to prevent them from doing it.

Ponder that for a while.

Yeah, yeah,...the parking lot.

I'm voting for trump. I hope he gets it and fugs it up worse than it is now.

Most of those sorties are against rebel groups fighting Assad, not ISIS groups. And especially targeting the rebel groups that Obama's been stupid enough to arm.

And when they are done there, they will probably go start bombing the Kurds in Iraq because they are the biggest threat to Russia's buddy Iran in the region.

But if you think WW3 is going to start over a no-fly zone over Libya... wow.

what would Rubio or Hillary do if Russia ignored their no fly zone?

Shooting down Russian planes... that bitch is crazy.

Bumped

Without eminent domain, you'd have a stupid fugger like bowsinger living in the middle of every interstate.

Not Libya, Syria,..not that it matters.

The threat is being discussed. And the whole damn thing is about nothing that will ever benefit America. In fact, America would be better off if Syria was left under the control of Assad.

The whole situation has gotten insane.

American presidential candidates are threatening a nuclear power over a conflict in Syria that America stirred up and has no vested interest in.

Yes, I wonder how that could have happened? Perplexing. NOT!

Conservatives are not opposed to the use of eminent domain for public good.
The Trump court cases were about owners refusing to sell to Donald Trump for his parking lots.
It is about property rights.
It is raw redistribution of wealth from the working class to the rich.

Perplexing, unless one has his eyes open.

Correct, and why do you think Trumps parking lots were allowed to use eminent domain?

Development happens, people (the public) need to be able to park places to use the facilities. Just because a developer is footing the bill, doesn't mean that the project is not for the public good, and often times required by the city to begin with.

I've been part of many projects where a private developer had to use eminent domain to get the property needed to complete their project. 100% of the time the City agency required them to do that portion of the project and invoked eminent domain for them. And 100% of the time the home owners simply held out knowing that the court would award them more money through eminent domain than if they sold to the developer, they walked away smiling.

I wouldn't worry about parking lots. If the crazies who control America's foreign policy in the Middle East don't get reeled in, there's going to be parking lots for everybody that's left.

Traitors, they be. Eliminate them with the lieberals and all will be well.

Yes, because the world is a much better place if you just run home and hide under the covers from scary people like Putin.

I'm not a big interventionist, but the world is a much better place FOR US if we stand up to these countries. We've had 7 years of cowards in the White House, and we are definitely not safer.

Oh bullshit. There's never been anything to be gained for America by destabilizing the Middle East.

If you want Obama's antics to get the planet nuked over some chithole like Syria, well,...you're an idiot.

I think America has more value than that.

you call them traitors

they call you sheep

You need to start another thread where you lay out your foreign policy plans and fears and terrors and let this one get back to Trump.


New Quinnipiac poll out today for Florida:

On the question of "Is your opinion of Donald Trump favorable, unfavorable or you haven't heard enough about him?" the answers are:
Favorable 35%
Unfavorable 57%
Hvn't hrd enough 6%


Hillary Clinton has only a 51% unfavorable.



This is not intended primarily as a Trump bashing thread... but to point out that while he's #1 among the candidates for the primary, he's polling in most places as the worst candidate in the presidential elections.

Every poll keeps confirming it.

PS: The poll was actually for FL, OH and PA. The results for Trump in the different states were pretty similar to the Florida results. Carson/Fiorina do better in OH and PA than in FL, Rubio/Bush not so much.

Agreed. That is in fact what commonly happens. In other words, it is not a worthwhile issue here and certainly not anti-conservative.

You are right that often the development is a very positive improvement for the community, too. Not always, but often.

This is not like the Fish & Wildlife seizing some ranch that a some pioneer family has owned for generations to turn back to habitat for wolves and varmints.

I've seen the most godawful plots in downtown Osaka, Japan, because the builder of a big high-rise could not get eminent domain to remove a worthless post-WW2 "rabbit hutch" shack on one corner. It spoils the whole neighborhood and, together with stupid bureaucrats, has long held back economic development in Osaka.

OTOH, the Great Hanshin Earthquake of January 1995 that struck the region leveled dozens of blocks in Kobe. They were all gone. For the most part, the city could not even recreate the lot lines! It rebuilt with the heavy sponsorship of a few big companies. For example, the area around the Kobe Daimaru Department Store today is a beautiful, trendy area of shops, boutiques, apartments and businesses, that they could only dream of before. (I headed the local American Chamber of Commerce for several years around then, so I was close to the city leaders who did it.)

When Donald Trump develops, he goes first class all the way. People fight to buy his condos and golf memberships. He also understands the value of paying a fair price and protecting his brand. If he sought eminent domain, it should not bother anyone.

I had to laugh this week to see a Facebook post that claimed that his "Make America Great Again" caps are made in China. That is not so. (Of course, there likely are counterfeits.) Aside from the fact that he always goes first class, he is too smart not to have them made in the USA, as they clearly indicate.
