Dude, PA is flooded with angry, entitled whites. I'm fucking tired of hearing their shit. Most are failures because of bad decisions, deflecting blame. And now they have this demagogue and feel emboldened.
And the affluent ones are even worse... I have to sit and listen to their bullshit, parroted from Hannity. And it's always the same story at core: "I'm overspending, and rather than live within my means, which are not insubstantial, I'll instead complain about taxes. Because West Palm isn't enough. I think I deserve Jupiter Island."
Also, my family came here between 1830s and 1910. I'm a firm believer that you need to constantly replenish the soil with new minds. I don't want any asshole who wishes to install Sharia coming over, but let's face it -- those are .000005 of immigrants.
And it is rare when you find daylight between me and Cato. (Though I do favor reasonable gun regulation. Background checks seem totally sensible to me.)

A good thing about shave showing up is it brings out the stuff I can find common cause on with Sebby. (My own family came here between 1608 and last year, though - Seb, tell your kids to start marrying immigrants and get rid of that 1910 end date!).
