This is so disappointing that Goodwill
would not let go of one pair of donated
shoes for a homeless woman when asked by a police officer.
We have donated many goods to
Goodwill over the years, and may have
to re think who we donate to.
I have tagged @GoodwillIntl here.
Teenagers in Aurora Colorado took over king soopers store. Not much workers can do when 100+ show up all at once to take it over. They are not there to shop and is stopping others from shopping

WE HAVE A PROBLEM: This is a well written and thought out article written by a 26 yr old college student by the name of Alyssa Ahlgren, who's in grad school for her MBA. What a GREAT perspecitve...
My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us!
I'm sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to "fix" the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around.
I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook's, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we've become completely blind to it.
Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose.These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don't give them a second thought.
We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!!
Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ??
Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, "An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity."
Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in.
When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I've ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided.
My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let's just say I didn't have the popular opinion, but I digress.
Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country.
People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they've never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism.
Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn't live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn't see the rise and fall of socialism and communism.
We don't know what it's like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don't have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it's spreading like a plague." #pleaseshare
We deserve answers on what you did with the money, we deserve answers on why you opened our borders, we deserve answers on why you’re lying about cutting taxes and we’d get those answers if you weren’t scared to debate.
These are parasites—NGO members or anti-fascists—who are arming Muslim North African invaders in Ceuta with pepper spray. Let’s make these traitors famous.
@DataRepublican has launched an interactive map of all the noblogs pages.
It covers 7,000+ blogs and includes Dashboard, Map, and Graph views, plus institutional citation/affiliation mapping.
Just visit https://t.co/Ya6xvf6ijv and you'll be redirected.
Useful for journalists, researchers, and anyone trying to understand the web of violent extremist networks.
For nearly a century, Democrats have dominated the New Mexico Legislature roughly 92 of the last 100 years in the House and ninety years in the Senate.
And what do we have to show for it?
🔴 50th in Education
🔴 50th in child well-being
🔴 1st in violent crime
🔴 Out of control homelessness
🔴 A struggling economy
🔴 Thousands per citizen in state and local taxes
Democrats have written the laws, controlled the budgets and set the agenda in Santa Fe for generations.
They own the results and they want to blame the Republicans. Thats a weird flex!
If we want safer communities, better schools, lower taxes and more opportunity, we have to break the one-party stronghold.
🇺🇸 Vote Republican. Change Santa Fe. Change New Mexico.
🚨 https://t.co/5ajzizjI8F STRIKES AGAIN: TRUMPBLOGS, FORMERLY KNOWN AS NOBLOGS 🚨
🏴 THE ANARCHIST INTERNATIONAL ON NOBLOGS, MAPPED — EVERY BLOG, EVERY CELL, EVERY CITY. 🌍
The militant far-left has spent years hiding in plain sight on https://t.co/HFD4sxphTk — the anonymous blog network that quietly powers antifa, anarchist, squat, and "solidarity" cells around the world. So on my own time, for free, I scraped the whole thing. Because I kick commie *** for fun and need no government funding or sanction for it.
Introducing an interactive map of 7000+ blogs across many countries and languages — antifascist, anarchist, ecological, prisoner-solidarity, migrant-border, revolutionary. Every one classified, geolocated, and searchable down to the verbatim quote.
* 🔥 Verified quotes. Every claim is a receipt — their words, not mine.
* 🌐 4000-plus blogs pinned to a live world map — zoom into your own city.
* ⚔️ Many blogs classified "operational."
* 🕸️ Click any blog, author, or cell and walk the network one tie at a time.
No grant funded this. No client asked for it. I do this for free, on my own time, because someone should.
🖥️ Data-heavy! Best viewed on desktop.
📖 A preview of what's coming: DataRepublican v2.0 — full site redesign — launches soon, ahead of my and @JoshuaLisec book UNELECTED (Passage Press, Oct 13).
And yes — if I can map the anarchist international in my spare time, I can map anything.

Illegal aliens are night harvesting shellfish by the hundreds in Westport every night — wiping out clams, steamers, blue crabs, mussels.
Night harvesting is banned statewide. Limits exist. Nobody cares.
Cops don't care. Town doesn't care. State doesn't care.
