Two thumbs up again . Trump revels in any apparent tragedy that seemingly promotes his Make America White Again agenda of hatred bigotry and racism he’s so desperate to maintain in order to keep the loyalty of his rapidly diminishing base .

FYI; I have immediate family high up within the ranks of immigration and DHS and everything Trump is making claim to about this disturbed individual and his background , immigration to the US etc … is an outright and blatant lie

But .. also allow me to explain Trump’s two cents on the opioid epidemic . Literally .. two cents . As in Trump’s proclamation last week on the epidemic that gives all of .. two cents per addict to deal with the situation

If it had been up to me, this Muslim murderer would never have been allowed into the US. He would have been rejected by anyone with a working brain. Frank’s brain does not work. He is insane. To Frank, any rejection of Muslims, at any time, for any reason, is intolerable. To Frank, the most vile and reprehensible people on the planet are white, Christian, Americans. Especially white, Christian men. Frank holds them responsible for every evil in all the world, going back at least hundreds of years.

While I am sorry about the murders, and again, were it up to me, the guy that committed them would never have been allowed the chance, I am happy that the murderer was a Muslim, allowed into the US by the very policies Frank promotes. So, if you want to blame who is responsible, you can put some of the blame on those, like Frank, who wanted to let the murderer in, and was happy to run the risk of what has happened for the sake of “diversity”.

Truly Bryson …. you are a very small man with a very small mind with even smaller thoughts . And the fact that you take pleasure in murder of any kind ? Suffice it to say Bryson a careful review of what Christ says about murder in the Sermon on the Mount condemns your every thought

In as far as vile is concerned ? Let us remember that thru out the New Testament it was towards the religious hypocrites and the self righteous that Christ aimed all his vitriol anger and condemnation . Not the unbelievers Which then makes you by Christ the Savior’s judgment the truly vile among all of us here including Frank

As far as this particular obviously very disturbed individual and Trump’s bloviating bs lies Tweets and reactions to him ? Reality check little man

1) Trump is claiming that his Travel Ban ( 1.0 – 1.2 -1.3 all shot down by the courts and condemned by USCIS ) would of prevented this man from entering the country

Reality . None of Trump’s attempted travel bans include Uzbekistan . Why ? Because like all the other Muslim countries not included in Trump’s ban .. some that should of been by the way assuming preventing terrorist attacks in the US was the intended goal .. Trump has financial interests in Uzbekistan

2) Trump claims that the Immigration laws in place were created by Democrats

Reality – 90% of the immigration laws on the books were written and passed by the GOP . The Diversity Lottery ? Written and passed by a bi-partisian congress and senate and held up over the decades by both parties

And .. ” let the murder in ? ” Ahhh … best be checking the facts little man … he’s been here for years . Led a reasonably normal life up until about three years ago … and was ‘ influenced right here in the ( not so ) good ole US of A .. by the internet … not by any one or mosque

And let me remind you Mr Make America White Again … the worst act of terrorism since 9/11 committed on US shores … was committed by a white man .. ( Las Vegas shooter ) .. not a muslim .. an American citizen … upper middle class .. christian leanings and all . And thats fact !

In as far as what Frank or any other Liberal calls for in this country .. [ a reminder little Bubba .. I’m an Independent with a capitol I ] … hate to be the bearer of bad news little man .. but what they are calling for is what the US Constitution , Bill of Rights … Immigration policies etc call for as well

Seriously as with the Bible … y’all might wanna try reading them before repeatedly shoving your foot so firmly down your throat

Truly Bryson .. on top of being an inane vapid mindless little sycophant troll regurgitating verbatim propaganda you barely comprehend you’re being incapable of discerning Fact from Fiction .. by this comment alone you’ve exposed yourself to be the disgusting little white trash pile of white washed dung your previous comments and replies indicated you might be

Honestly were it my place I’d tell you to go to the hell you seem so willing to condemn anyone who dares to disagree with your xenophobic fear addled opinions . But the reality is … by each and every word … you condemn yourself to the very hell you so quickly wish upon everyone else

Ahhh … do you bother to even read your own comments … never mind an actual book or the Bible ?

Why do I ask ?

Because in a moment of abject logical inconsistency you just condemned me to hell by your own words my little hypocrite despite claiming you are not .

Reality check ; Despite all your delusions of glory and self righteousness you do not have a clue what God’s judgment towards myself or anyone else may be . Fact is judging by all your previous comments replies and posts .. you don’t even know who or what God ( capitol G ) is . Though to be fair you do seem to be an expert when it comes to the mind and judgements of a god ( small case ‘g’ intentional ) of your own making

” I don’t have the power to condemn you. If I did, you would already be in Hell. But I know the kind of people God condemns, and you are one of them ”

Bryson ; First off … you did it again … affirming and denying the same thing at the same time … the epitome of logical inconsistency as well as an indicator as to your overall immaturity and lack of cognitive thought .

But more importantly … as has been proven by your each and every comment and reply … your overall pathetic lack of knowledge of the Bible … your utter inability to discern Truth from lies .. etc – et al – ad nauseam …..

.. to reiterate … you may think you know who the god of your own making might condemn … but you do not have a clue as to the mind of God the Creator nor whom He may or may not condemn in the slightest . And if you’d read your Bible … you’d know that .

By the way little man … your desperation , fear and anger what with your once again resorting to pithy pre-adolescent attempts at insult and irrelevant to the point of erroneous condemnations towards myself and others are shining thru like a Beacon upon a Manure Pile

Bryson … by your every word your abject fear , desperation and hatred of everything ( xenophobia ) and everyone not like you is made obvious

Ahhhh …. and once again Bryson .. going on three times today alone … by proclaiming me to be condemned you condemn yourself displaying your abject and utter disdain/hatred of the very Bible and the Word of God/Christ you claim to love so dearly .

e.g. Hypocrisy at its finest . And actually … perhaps in retrospect calling you stupid is being a bit too kind . More like a foolish pathetic little child dancing to the tune of the father of lies .

Thats rich coming from someone who’s never so much as read his Bible never mind knowing what it does or does not mean

” But where you are going, the Bible will do you no good ”

Once again Bryson .. round four of doing that which the Bible commands you must never do …. exacerbated by you now calling me irredeemable ( poorly translated as fool in most translations ) .. which in and of itself condemns you to the very fires you wish upon so many others . Matt 5;22

“The planes that crashed into the WTC were not piloted by the middle eastern people the government claimed ”

And now you prove yourself to be a psychotic little tin foil hat conspiracy theorist as well . Hmm ……….

By the way little boy … my comment about Bush was intended as a statement of fact … not as an insult … but in light of your obvious psychosis I can see why you took it that way

So Bryson … in closing … and in the spirit of pity .. may I offer you a bottle of A1 to make that foot go down a little easier ?

FYI Bryson . According to the most recent FBI assessments ( despite the RNC and gun lobby’s attempts to prevent them ) the majority of murders in the US are committed by …. white lower and middle class US citizens . Most of which are men !

Drug smuggling .. especially opioids of all kinds , cocaine , crack and meth ? Suffice it to say when it comes to the actions of the the US 1% biker gangs … the overwhelming majority of which are … white … the likes of MS-13 in combination with all the Mexican and Central American cartels are bit players in comparison

Dear Gary Bryson:

Then there are the attacks on mosques, such as the August 5 ’17 attack on the Dar Al-Farooq Islamic Center in Bloomington, Minnesota where worshipers were gathered for morning prayers.

And Daniel Wenzek drove a vehicle into union-sponsored immigration protesters outside GOP Representative Ed Royce’ office.

Then there was James Fields of Maumee, Ohio who drove his car into a crowd of people protesting the “unite the right” gathering in Charlottesville.

That such attacks both can and often are perpetrated by white nationalists isn’t the point. The point is Gary — your own vitriol raises question as to whether we will one day read the name of Gary Bryson in connection with a Wenzek/Fields style attack on protesters or another Islamic Center.

Those here who you think are too blind or stupid to see their danger just might be concerned that you yourself are an unstable and troubled individual who, given the right [or more aptly, wrong] circumstances could yourself commit such an act.

Intending no disrespect and with all the love I can muster, Gary, please get help.

Blessings!

” Why is it that the people that need our help the most are the ones that want it the least ? ”

Gary is a bigot! The person who mowed down those ppl in NYC was radicalized right here. Trump’s idiotic tweets just emboldens the extremists. Gary doesn’t get that. He has a brain the size of Trump’s. There are millions of peaceful, hardworking Muslims in this country. If what Gary was preaching about were true, we’d have a terrorist attack every day by a Muslim. But, who is creating terror every day in the US is WHITE male extremists. Maybe be should deport those idiots to an island somewhere..preferably with no animals and no way to get off the island. They are dangerous and murderous and it’s proven every day that it is the WHITE AMERICAN MALE who kills fellow Americans every single day!

1) Import is a word used for goods , materials and products . Not human beings . Human beings are not imported unless they are slaves … they immigrate .. but once again thanks for displaying your abject bigotry and racism for one and all to see

2) The fact is little man if you knew anything about DHS and USCIS you’d know the chances of you passing the vetting process given to immigrants and asylum seekers is next to nil .

Fact little man . Proven fact . According to USCIS statistics 80% of natural born US citizens would fail both the vetting process as well as the tests given to potential immigrants at least once . With upwards of 25% never able to pass the entire process . So in light of your abject ignorance when it comes to US Civics , History and the US Constitution / Bill Rights guaranteeing that you’d fail .. shall we kick you out ?

Fact … no US Military personal with the sole exception of those going into Intelligence are subjected to as strict a vetting as the average immigrant .

3) Once again if you had a clue about the realities of immigration you’d know there are already strict limits in place across the board … which is why the current backlog is between five and ten years

4) And once again my hypocritical little xenophobe … no one wants criminals etc allowed to immigrate . Thats the Alt Right myth and fear mongering propaganda used by Trump to keep his base happy … not reality

Funny thing though … your precious RNC does … they having let a phalanx of Cuban criminals and criminally insane into the country under their policies .. not to mention via G.H. Bush having granted anyone from Saudi Arabia a Visa Exemption despite the fact that Saudi Arabia is a major sponsor of worldwide terrorism .. which by the way included the majority of the 9/11 terrorists allowing them to come to the US at will … no Visa .. no Vetting .. nothing . And thats still the fact today .

Ahhh … but your precious 350 lb orangutan never mentions that now … does he .

So .. care to put your ignorance and stupidity on display once again little man .

I have noticed how this Gary Bryson obsessively trolls Frank each and every time he posts a new video, so I decided to do a little background checking on him. And Lo and Behold! Nine nailed it!!! A little bit of sleuthing on my part has yielded that Gary Neil Bryson is a 75 years old fart, who lives in Winston-Salem, THE seat for Fundamentalist Evangelical Christians. As to how I determined that out of the 65 “Gary Bryson” or so listed, this particular troll is the 75-year-old Gary Neil Bryson… That was easy enough! All I needed to do was to check voter registration records and then cross-referenced those with public campaign contribution records, and voila! A 2010 $250 donation to Virginia Foxx (a Tea Party member House Republican Young Guns and author of “God is in the House” who is against the separation of church and state) totally gives him away.

To better understand Gary’s mindset, and why he feels so incredibly threatened by Frank’s videos, you should probably read the eye-opening “Encyclopedia Of Religion In The South.”

As it is with fundamentalist Islam, in which each and every word in the Koran is taken literally as opposed to anecdotal analogy… In its sense, the inspiration of the Bible has provided a basis for an understanding of biblical authority and, as a result, has had a significant effect on biblical interpretation. Belief in the inspiration of the Bible is widespread among Sothern Evangelicals, especially the more conservative within that family such as Gary, and universally held to in Fundamentalist circles.
Biblical inspiration can be constructed in both general and a strict sense. In general, inspiration usually forms the basis for the view that the Bible is inerrant and infallible. Literally, “inspiration” means breathing in, but in its fullest theological form it refers to the process whereby the biblical authors were filled with the Holy Spirit and, in such a state, recorded the divine truth communicated to them by God. The inspired texts that resulted are held to be without error both historically and theologically. For example, the walls of Jericho must have fallen just as reported in Joshua 6, irrespective of archaeological evidence.

Similarly that God actually ordered the mass annihilation of the Canaanites must be accepted, even if it troubles the conscience of the believer. A literalist approach, in other words, is the only one viable to the reading of the scriptures if it is to be understood to be inspired. In the more strict sense of inspiration, historical and theological information as well as the very words and grammatical structure of the text, are inspired. For many proponents of biblical inspirations, the King James Version is the only version.

As for Winston-Salem, and as mentioned above, it is THE place (within the Bible belt) where people live their daily lives immersed in a culture of fundamentalist Christianity. There is more discrimination there than you will find elsewhere. Also, if you are trying to compare the schools to the northeast, there is simply no comparison. Underqualified teachers, very, very low salaries, low budgets and overcrowded schools. Religion in the “belt” and in particular Winston-Salem is so rampant and so controlling, that outsiders equate it to being a cult. People will try anything to get you to join their church, while non-church goers are looked down at, discriminated against, and ostracized. Especially towards those who are the kind to cherish their own individuality. As such, there is simply no arguing with these indoctrinated folks!

I spent over 30 years with our American federal family and the running joke was always:

” How can you tell your boss is lying? ”

” His lips are moving!”

We live in the age of national security and secrecy and only informed Americans can vote on any given issue.

The war on terror has pushed most of our Federal family to unprecedented secrecy and now imo it is near impossible to govern!

Actually the conversation above is a product of our obsessive need for secrecy!

It bennifits many in power to place their wrong doing under a blanket of national security so please do think about that in reguards to what is or is not conspiracy!
