That’s right. It’s extortion within the legal framework using fear and the perception of public support and there isn’t a thing you can do to stop it. Our side had better learn to use these same tactics because it’s a hell of a lot safer and easier than a shoot em up civil war. As much as I dislike the tactics this is the no holds bared tactics that the left has been using for decades and is now more bold than ever.

Bought three sheets of half inch ply-wood at Home Depot for $67.00 a sheet yesterday. Strutted my butt over to lawn and garden and grabbed a $20.00 gallon of pre-mixed gas while I was at it.
I was living fat, high on the hog....
I had instore credit of $220.00 for some slightly used materials I'd just returned.

Home Depot’s loss prevention department is probably worried about losing their jobs.

There is something you can do about it, and this is it. Support those businesses who at least seem to share your values, and shun those who do not.
The biggest problem our country has is not systemic racism, it's systemic stupidity.

Home Depot should call for a boycott of Georgia religious leaders for being stupid and racist.
Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.

Was just on a conference call this morning with the home office up in Michigan ... lumber prices are up over 300% since the end of 1st quarter 2020.
Given how almost all major commodities are up during the same span of time - especially since Biden was elected - I do not understand how his administration and The Fed can keep denying that inflation is now fully upon us at a rapid pace. Almost a record setting pace.
This from Charlie Belillo ... Founder and CEO of Compound Capital Advisors
Charlie Bilello @charliebilello · Apr 20 Commodity prices over last year... Lumber: +265% WTI Crude: +210% Gasoline: +182% Brent Crude +163% Heating Oil: +107% Corn: +84% Copper: +83% Soybeans: +72% Silver: +65% Sugar: +59% Cotton: +54% Platinum: +52% Natural Gas: +43% Palladium: +32% Wheat: +19% Coffee: +13% Gold: +3%
What you think about, you do ... what you do, you become. In a nation where anything goes ... eventually, everything will. We're almost there.

Lumber prices have reached the point of insanity. Under this POS administration I suspect every consumer item will double in price.

Once again, we see what the Negro church really is.............not a house of God, but a tool for political activities, and a place where that the Negroes use to further their political agenda.
If, and a very big if it is, the IRS did the right thing, they would reclassify EVERY Negro church as a taxable institution. They constantly violate the separation of church and state, and need to be called out for it.
The God the Negroes worship is called the Democrat Party, because it is the God that uses them for political purposes.

Sincere question on this topic.
Has anyone heard a decent explanation on why the law is so racist? Chris Wallace(I know, I know) was on a talk radio show and disagreed with the host. Saying he had some big issues with it. But not enough time to explain. Everything I have heard was the same. No explanation.
I want to know who doesn't have a valid ID. Anyone who drives a car. (The vast majority of voting age people) Anyone who holds a job. Anyone who gets welfare help. Anyone on Social Security. Anyone on any government program. Anyone that fly or travels internationally in any way. Anyone who wants to buy alcohol or cigarettes. Anyone who pickup up tickets at a MLB game!
I'm sure there's more, but that list encompasses darn near every American. And most hit multiple categories.
The only "functioning" demographic I can think of that might not have it is homeless. I would be willing to bet a good number of them have it.
And it's not that hard to get one. I know a few non drivers. They moved a card just like a license, except it says ID on it. Right through the DOT.
Parents who say they have good kids..Usually don't!

Saw a "change my mind" where the lib said it's hard for them to get time off work to get a photo ID. I can't recall the last job I took where photo ID was not required as part of the sign on paperwork..
