I don't believe- yet - that they are targeting me personally for my political or any other views. Maybe this year's I could be audited but I can prove everything; sometimes that isn't enough, and I sure don't need the hassle.
Tney did target the Tea Party which was egregious and Lois Lerner is getting a pass.
“I have a Trump sticker on my car, if in need of help should I expect the same from a Sanders supporter?!”
Ha! That’s a good one. A Sanders supporter owning a small business... you’ve got quite an imagination!
I believe you are right about political views not being a protected class.
I am sure that liberal businesses try to screw over conservatives plenty,but do it at their peril,we have voices way beyond what we had even two years ago. Screw us,the lose lots of business,look at Fox and Rupert baby’s suicidal moves.
And what happens when some business denies you service for your political affiliations? Is it wrong for liberals but okay for conservatives? You can't play that game because it will come back to bite you hard.
You make a better influence by taking the moral high ground (i.e. politely let them know what your beliefs are and then provide amazing service). What the tow truck driver did just makes more enemies.
When some people start spouting lies, it raises my hackles, but some people you can't appeal to with reason and credible sources..
If as a free citizen in a public venue I were the first responder to a known socialist needing CPR, I would walk and not run, first considering whether they were still young enough to change their ways.
Socialists frequently state the need for previous generations to “die off” with or without help, before their ideological nirvana can be realized. They’d best learn how to get through life without help now; turning from ticks into dogs may take some practice ;)
You are right, and perhaps more right than you know.
This story is making the rounds on other sites, including some news sites. And what's being highlighted is the tow truck driver's Trump connection, not the woman's supposed inability to pay.
Will one story like this hurt Trump? Nope. But many like it will have an impact. That's how propaganda works.
One lived out example is worth a million words of preaching.
Bernie is there because churches, back in FDR’s day, already were jumping for “let Uncle Sam do it” bait.
I like this idea better and completely agree. Knowing that you disagree and should be angry at them, but instead go the extra mile will speak volumes just as you say.
Because it will win them to believing the Lord’s way is the best way, too.
Bernie is a false fill for the hole that the church (which in turn being blessed by God) should be a true fill for.
So, is a tow truck service any more or less of a “public accomodation” (where right to refuse service doesn’t hold) than a bakery?
And it should be a caution for Christians who are jumping on the Trump support bandwagon. I think he’s probably going to be fine and dandy as a secular president. I’m not expecting Trump to be my godfather or my personal financial mentor, however. That answers to a higher authority.
I think you should win Post of the Day for that one!
My motto is: “Judge, and prepare to be Judged”.
It might take quite a lefty conviction to maintain that tension, but I wouldn’t say it is utterly IMPOSSIBLE.
You'll probably get the same from a Sanders supporter...in addition, they'll call some friends and come picket your house, try to get you fired, and key your car!
His logic was perfect...hers was flawed. "Call the government," indeed.
Typical news. No description of her accident. No mention of hiring another towing company.
And everybody suggesting this young female having cash to pay for a tow———good grief!
Any one that provides me with any service does not know my political affiliation.
I don’t wear it on my sleeve or on my bumper or in my front yard.
Yep, he sure advertised the virtues of free enterprise real good, she just can’t wait to join them.
It is to laugh!!! Leftists don't do "plausible." They don't act nice to you because you do...and they don't get pi$$y because you do.
They do as much as they can get away with and then a little bit besides.
