Is he calling for family time, loving you're fellow man, walks, and above all picking up trash?

I definitely support this platform.



I encourage stepping and a series of stepping outside in nature, especially if you are picking up pieces of non biodegradables along the way.


I support this platform. Seems reasonable.

A little more namaste and a little less cynicism.

I suggest you pay attention and observe just what history can prove against what we are now living, repetition is not a good thing this time.

Anyone else wake up in a thunderstorm as a kid thinking nuclear bombs hitting?

The elementary school videos on nuclear war, duck and cover, etc?

Great advice Zeek!

I haven't had a full day of fishing to myself in at least a couple years, but I'm going to try to head out for a day next week. Looking forward to it.

Get real man. How many dies the last 3 years in antics and BLM riots. How many people lost everything to thugs backed by liberals even bailed out of jail by our new VP! No matter how bad anyone thinks the protest in DC were last week they pale in comparison to what the liberals and Democrats backed and openly supported for the past 4 years. To say anything different even if you are a liberal just makes you a liar on top of it all.

Agree... and to prove the point: what would you rather do? wear a biden hat through a Trump protest or wear a MAGA hat through an Antifa/Blm demonstration? That's what I thought.

This is exactly what the liberals want us to do. Go fishing and not worry about anything, quit looking our way, there's nothing to see here.

No, quite the contrary. Stay involved, but make your involvement meaningful. One can waste the entire weekend arguing with the leftist trolls on FB & Twitter and accomplish nothing, whereas telling your reps - especially your local and state officials - exactly where you stand can give them the direction they need.

Remember, Republicans control the majority of state legislatures. They get to redraw the new House districts based on the official 2020 census. If Texas gains the predicted 5 seats, rest assured the majority of them will benefit Republican candidates.

Not true at least my world. I have worked 35 years to retire in Dec. 2021 if taxes are 15 or 20% higher on my income, if capital gains are raised to Biden’s proposed 40% and if healthcare increases I doubt my retirement will last.
Everyone of those mother ffrs in Washington are guaranteed a great retirement, healthcare and huge tax breaks.
I and millions of others feel pretty helpless and distraught over all of this.
So yes it could be the end of my happiness. And I’ll assure you I’m not alone.
I also believe all of the things I mentioned above will come to pass.




Absolutely 100% correct. I was going in 2020 but that was before the idiots took over.



Me Three. Not so sure now. Maybe Wal Mart greeter is my next chapter career. Where did all the old school Texans and other country folk go?
