** Hate crimes
I've been reading in the paper that all these Confederate monuments are being defaced and they're writing, "Black lives matter." These are hate crimes. I mean, think about it. If you were doing that to Martin Luther King's memorials, wouldn't that be a hate crime? These are hate crimes, and they need to prosecute, find these people, put them in jail for hate crimes. Otherwise, the whole hate crime lie is just a bunch of hypocrisy. One-sided.
** Supreme frustration
I see where our U.S. Supreme Court has once again ruled against the will of the American people and voted that the Obamacare is just wonderful. I am so sick of this Supreme Court, of any Supreme Court. Why do eight people get to say -- because half of them are liberal and half of them are conservative, they don't go by the law. You know they are going by their politics. And anybody who thinks they are not biased is crazy. And I wish we could do away with the Supreme Court and let the people decide for our country.

** Double standards
In typical Clinton style, Hillary stated that the Confederate flag should not be flown anywhere, although she and her husband celebrated Confederate Flag Day every year while they governed Arkansas. Personally, I don't care if the flag is flown or not. What bothers me is that the mainstream media won't report Hillary's double standards. The Clintons and Obamas can lie and deceive, because they know the media won't hold them accountable.
** Tournaments
I cannot believe it. The third Saturday in a row that a person can't get a tee time at the Jaycees Golf Course, because of tournaments. Come on, city, you can do better than that.
