The local community in DC is not being uplifted either.

Government has fully replaced the mafia.

They control the unions, they and their partners control gambling, sale of weed and drugs

Next up - they will legalize and partner on prostitution

I once ran an illegal game
And Bingo was its name-o
B—I—N-G-O, B—I—N-G-O, B—I—N-G-O
And Bingo was its name-o

I once forgot that ten percent
Went over to Big Guy-o
B—I—G-Guy-O, B—I—G-Guy-O, B—I—G-Guy-O,
The Big Guy, Biden’s name-o

They may be putting the squeeze on the Knights of Columbus. Anti-catholicism comes in all sorts of stripes.

Hugo Black got good mileage out of acquitting the killer of a Priest at the Cathedral Rectory in Birmingham back in 1921

Yep.

They keep making the same life choices through the generations and keep getting the same results. It simply isn’t government’s job to uplift anyone.

"...raids at 14 illegal bingo facilities in five cities..."

Well okay, if it will put an end the gangster granny's reign of terror...

[wardamneagle]

This happened on one of the color episodes of The Andy Griffith Show. Replacement deputy Warren arrested the entire women's auxiliary for running a bingo game.

I don't know how the episode ended. The color ones sucked.

My point was the FBI is concerned about bingo in AL and has no concern about DC.

[csvset]

Y’all having way too much fun over there. Going to need immediate rectifying .

Uh oh, Granny must have figured out the super-secret song code.

I don't know how the episode ended. The color ones s***ed.

Agreed. They are like a Mayberry RFD prequel.
