    Oh those poor baseball bat wielding people who just innocently showed up to shut down another groups free speech? That is facism is it not?

    Don't think people don't see through the name of "antifa" either. it's like putting a label that says "not peanut butter" on a jar of Skippy.

    Good grief what a partisan hack statement. You call the president a POS because he said this on Saturday?
    "We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides, on many sides. It’s been going on for a long time in our country. Not Donald Trump, not Barack Obama, this has been going on for a long, long time. It has no place in America. What is vital now is a swift restoration of law and order and the protection of innocent lives. No citizen should ever fear for their safety and security in our society. And no child should ever be afraid to go outside and play or be with their parents and have a good time."

    Get over yourself, President's shouldn't be picking sides during an investigation. He clearly and strongly condemned both sides, the did exactly what your whining about yesterday. You guys care more about trying to run down the President than you do the victims, it's absurd. Oh and Yes BLM is no damn better than the KKK, they incite violence they've killed plenty over the past year, they are scum of the earth just like the KKK.

    No, boycotts are virtually always a failure.

    No, I don't care what happened to him...nor do I care what happened to the Antifa that got run over. I wont be donating to either of them.

    Thanks for not contesting what I stated though, that they had 0 business being there and were trying to shut down other Americans free speech.

    I call the sorry excuse for a POTUS a POS because that is how he behaves. He did not say anything specific about the White Nationalists, or the KKK, or Nazis, or Alt Right because of one and only one reason- they are part of hus vase, his early base. You call me partisan but is Sen Hatch, or Lindsey Graham, or a growing group of other Republicans who also criticized the Saturday statement as not enough are they "partisan". .? You are trying to gloss over Trump's weak Saturday statement by saying he went mamby pamby due to an investigation. BS. , ! If Trump lambasted the Nazis, AltRightists, White Nationalists , KKK how woukd that affect any investigation ? That us a sorry butt excuse fir not having the balls to condemn those who set in motion the horrible events of this weekend. Condemnation would not affect investigation into the act by that 20 year old anus head who committed manslaughter by vehicle.

    The Nazis, AltRight, KKK, White Nationalist announced long ago that they were coming to cause havoc. They showed up with shields, bids amor , helmets, battons, clubs, sticks, and other weapons which telegraphed their intent not to be peaceful. They cam to Virginia to provoke a fight or start one. The. BLM Broad if gang whatever one likes to call came to VA after the extremistvright wing groups announced they were coming. So in thus case do not equate the BLM bastards with the Nazis and White Supremacists.

    If Trump had said on Saturday what he was shamed or goaded into saying on Monday we would be talking about something else today. If Trump said on Saturday what he was goaded or shamed into saying on Monday I would have praised him as I have on the few rare occasions that he did not behave like a POS.

    I call it the way I see it ! If someone behaves like a POS I call them on it.
    When Trump stops behaving lieca POS I will no longer sell him that. When Trump earns my respect I will respect him but until that day comes if it ever does he is nothing but a POS TALKING DILDO. He needs tomoroove himself not I.

    Trump was quick to lambast those CEO's who quit his council because they insulted him (in his mind) but he could not say anything bad and true about Nazis, KKK, or White Supremacists on Saturday since their racist action obviously are not a concern for him. That is the sign of a POS. The CEO s who quit did so on moral grounds and for good and sound reasons. Trump never does things for moral, good or sound reasons.

    I've been in technology all my adult life, never once has an immigrant take my job.

    I guess if ones Game ain't strong, one would thing they should step up their Game.

    ... and they should be afraid ... Customers have Buying Power.

    Why be part of a sham councel! If Trump actually considered they opinions that would be fine. Trump just cares about one opinion, his own.
    Why should they sit there and listen to the Talking Dildo heap raises upon himself and slam everyone else.

    In any case there was a disagreement in regards to the visa program. The there is a pay limit that the company has to meet in order to hire outside. It was kind of low.

    I'm talking about pay not directly taking jobs. I program on the side C#, oOP, Visual Basic, Mobile and multiplatform apps etc... I looked into doing it full time but am not willing to take a reduction in pay. Industrial union jobs pay better with hourly and overtime etc...

    They quit because the main stream media said Trump wasn't fast enough to respond to Charlottesville. Cowards! All of them. Stick around and make a difference. No. Just run for the door!
