Think about it, assuming you can.

I don't think there are any liberals here to read this. They do not like forums that they do not ban conservatives.

658 Guests count so I am sure some of them are liberals.

Either that or they agree with the Right and are afraid that some of their "friends" will find out.

Paid trolls come in all the time and read the board.

Oh, I never expected a response from a lib, even the ones that post here.
I do it because I want the so called "Moderates" to see what they're allowing to happen to their party as radical communists push their agenda designed to destroy the US.
As Walks pointed out, we have thousands of readers daily, so some are getting the message.

They come and visit. Many have learned their BS will be challenged and therefore choose not to post.

I just returned home from a week long visit of the liberal land NY/NJ. Heads are exploded all over the place from what Trump said about if you don't like it here get the hell out.

Matter of fact I was asked to go back to Georgia if I didn't like it up there. I pointed out to them that they indeed agreed with Trump than if you don't like somewhere leave......that's when all hell broke loose.........

I truly believe New York City's blackout this pass weekend was due to heads exploding all over the place.

Good to be home again.........

Sorry for the philosophical commentary, but I felt it to be relevant in case this does get to school a liberal. I want to discriminate this post (it's a good one) by justifying how it matters over the typical lib-crazed quote of the average celebrity.

In general, I'm still not sure why anyone give more focus to what an actor says over someone of more substance. Quoting such is usually shallow. They specialize at pretending. I say that we all fall into the trap of listening far too much to what those with the least amount of common sense and experience say over those who rise in sort of entertainment.

We quote politicians because it's how we decide how to vote. Most of them have their own motivation, so those quotes are of limited use in helping decide on a healthy direction for our country. And those at the universities are presumably studied and should have more to say than the average man. But you will find people who spent about 24 years in school then were given a job by a liberal - and have no job and very limited real-world experience. Then there's the press. Used to be they were just sensationalists - so always amplifying any story to make a name. Now they are mostly liberal sensationalists generating news to make their case. There are very few moderate reporters of truth - too boring for the entertainment industry. The point is that it's not easy to find people that have thoughts worth quoting / listening to / thinking about. Make your list and filter!

Now to this post. In Bruce Lee's case, he was an expert in martial arts. My understanding is that one key to this discipline is learning to suppress your emotions and focus on productive moves (offensive and defensive). Emotions are never helpful in making decisions or justifications. But most are in the habit of making that mistake. 

I'm not an expert in martial arts. But I am an expert in marital arts ... well, at least my wife is. Over the years, I've trained her to ignore the emotions that I cause.

Talk about going into a lion's den.  Welcome back home.

Oddly enough, Bruce's mother was Catholic, his father, Buddhist, Bruce, was an atheist. He was neither liberal or Conservative, he really didn't like politics, though most of his quotes were Conservative based, simply because they didn't come from a point of emotion, rather critical thought and observation of human nature.
If he were alive today, they left would vilify him.
Back in the day I was never a fan, mostly due to my own prejudiced views, which I quickly out grew. I can now appreciate the man and his deep thoughts.

It must be exhausting being offended by everything.

There are some liberal trolls that post on here quite often.

Yep, it must be miserable being a lib these days.
