P.S. If this posting ticks-off any voice here, too much , just tell me, and I will remove it immediately, out of respect .

Murph,
Why should you remove it? Many of us speak our opinions on MTJ so why shouldn't you?
This subject would not be allowed on most train/model train forums at all.
This forum is NOT like most others and you know that very well. :)

It's never gonna end. The 'Crats told us that immediately after the '16 election, and Maxine Waters and other Congress people were talkin' impeachment even before the inauguration. First off, Adam Shiff and Nancy Pelosi are both very accomplished liars. If ever there was a way to transport through a TV screen, I'd like to go in and stretch Shiff's skinny pencil neck a bit more. I don't know how Shiff, Pelosi, and Schumer can stand in front of the cameras and lie constantly when most of America knows the crap they're peddling has already been proven completely false. It's that old Democrat way. Tell the lie long enough and enough times and it becomes the truth.
And Murph, we don't live in a Democracy. We live in a representative Republic. The left wants their version of democracy; mob rule.
If you agree with the Progressives, it's freedom of speech. If you disagree, it's hate speech. There are no alternatives.

Murph, I agree with you. The present situation makes me sad. As an individual who believes in a higher power, I have been praying that our elected representatives would make wise, compassionate decisions. I don't know how this will end. :(

Shush, Mitch. You'll just perturb most of the responders here.

Interesting reading and a sad thing as well how what was a welcoming sign has been co-opted.

Same thing happened with the 13 star American Flag

Is the Betsy Ross Flag Racist? Meaning, History and Symbolism Behind U.S.A.'s 13-Star Flag
https://www.newsweek.com/betsy-ross-fla ... st-1447174

An American flag featuring a 13-star circle was at the epicenter of controversy after Nike decided to stop the release of a sneaker featuring the symbol. The special-edition Air Max 1 Quick Strike Fourth of July was set to hit retail stores in honor of the upcoming holiday. However, in a surprise move, the sneaker giant opted to pull the shoe after being advised of its offensiveness by brand ambassador and former NFL star Colin Kaepernick.

Murph, I take it that you don't care much for AOC :wink:

We could lock AOC and Steve King in a steel cage match and sell tickets on pay per view.

Does anybody here think it is a good idea - even imperative - to get inoculation against the flu (influenza season has begun, it's being reported on the News) ?

I was prepared to go to our local CVS to get the shot, today, but have ended up hesitating. Maybe tomorrow. :?:
