^^^Oh my, such defensiveness! Hope it wasn't something I said.
And, similar to Trump, his entire world is built on social media ratings.

It would seem logical that Tattle Tales like ducks.
Just maybe not this duck:

The Goal of Buddhism and the Meaning of Life...
The Buddhist goal is the achievement of human perfection, which should be the real purpose of life. It is in this sense that life has meaning, and which should inform the most salient aspects of human activity. A person who has made good progress along the Buddhist path would have reached a high degree of happiness, contentment and freedom from fear. Sometimes material affluence is seen as the goal of many persons, but these do not necessarily bring about the happiness which the Buddha sought to promote. Many religions look upon the present life as a ground for laying the foundation in a future life after physical death. Some Buddhists also adopt this attitude and try to secure a good rebirth or even Nirvana without residue. Exhortations from the Buddha could be produced to this effect. But the Buddha also affirms that we must make use of the present life, of which we are sure, and that the pursuit of the Noble Eightfold Path is the best way of doing so regardless of any consequences that may happen after death.
Buddhism recognizes no creeds whose uncritical acceptance is expected of its followers. Instead the Buddha enunciated certain basic laws and truths whose veracity he invited his followers to test for themselves. One of the traditional epithets of the Dharma is "ehipassiko" (meaning literally "come and see") which is an appeal to the empirical verification of the Dharma. In his very first discourse the Buddha identified Four Noble Truths as forming the core of the Dharma. These four Truths have since become a convenient way of stating the fundamentals of the Dharma. They are often regarded as the most basic teaching of the Buddha. In addition, the Buddha proclaimed several other doctrines, the most important being those of karma and re-birth. The validity of such doctrines is more difficult for an ordinary person to verify, but their dogmatic acceptance is not expected as a fundamental requirement of those who go for refuge to the "Three Gems" (Buddha, Dharma, Sangha) of Buddhism

Trashcan Lives
By: Charles Bukowski
the wind blows hard tonight
and it's a cold wind
and I think about
the boys on the row.
I hope some of them have a bottle of
red.
it's when you're on the row
that you notice that
everything
is owned
and that there are locks on
everything.
this is the way a democracy
works:
you get what you can,
try to keep that
and add to it
if possible.
this is the way a dictatorship
works too
only they either enslave or
destroy their
derelicts.
we just forgot ours.
in either case
it's a hard
cold
wind.

But this morning,
I don't have to hear that,
don't want to eat hamburgers
at Burger King
or have lots of strong shots
of tequila
in your imitation leather
cocktail lounges,
or discuss literature
with university poets
or listen my love
to your lying tongue.
I want to saddle that horse
and ride up through
the Sangre de Cristo Mountains
into the open madness
where outlaw fires
still burn.

The national media is hiding that information from the public as well. Much of the country is ignorant of the fact that a majority of states allow concealed carry without a permit.
That's because most of these pussies think firearms carriers will go all Duck Bill Hickok on them.

We've reached the tipping point in America, a majority of men are "Wat-tyler Marshmallow Soft" butter boys, who need the constant reassurance of a steel penis substitute to feel "safe".
