  I think Landy nailed it. The advantage to using a third party is that if somebody at the third party steals the money, that vendor will have bonds, insurance etc that will pay you what they owe you. (And then they send a guy named Louie with a baseball bat to get from the guy who took it).

  Speaking as an accountant, I can tell you this is NOT how you launder money. Kim and Mickey may not be able to find out who ones that website, I can guarantee the courts and IRS can if they want to. Using credit cards leaves a clear audit trail. If they wanted to hide the money, they'd tell everybody to donate in cash and once a week a plane full of money who take it out of the country. This is a move in the opposite direction from laundering money.

  police shouldn't have police - free zones.. the left is taking some risks here....russian revolution implemented more than a hundred years ago the so called soviets or "councils of workmen's and soldier's deputies".

  How can the mayor allow this to happen. Are the residents so liberal they don't care!

  In a word, yes.

  There was another shooting last night. This one was wounded, and they managed to get him out in a timely fashion. Mayor says she wants it cleared out, but has not given a time frame. She says she wants to allow protests during the day but a nighttime curfew. CHOP responded with call for her to resign and a statement that hey won't do anything she says.

  This has the potential to really hurt the protestors as the rest of Seattle may wonder when the shit show is coming to their neighborhood.

  Classic Rock: The Doors, Cream, Greatful Dead, Led Zeppelin, The Who, CSN&Y, John Mayhall, It's a Beautiful Day, Crow (so far all groups I've seen live) Pink Floyd ( a band I really wanted to see), the Beatles, Rolling Stones. I grew up on this music (wasn't a JW at the time).

  we have to get rid of these racist relics.

  i propose that we destroy all these bottles of syrups and burn every pancake box !

  we need to get rid of anything that reminds us of anything negative concerning slavery.. in boston they decapitated the head of christopher columbus and got rid of his statue.

  Phoenixrising, I think a trip to your place would be better than some museums I've been to.

  What does this video say to you about U.S. news organizations?

  by Wasanelder Once in

  this video was somewhat revelatory to me.

  i knew that fox was a coordinated news outlet but i had no idea it was so rigid.

  that's the iron fist of the corporate agenda.

  If you think that ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC and CNN aren't pushing an agenda I have a real estate deal for you.

  Removing Historic Monuments and Statues - Does the Term "Historical" Make it Right or Wrong?

  by RubaDub in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after further review and thought, i really don't see how removing a monument or statue that may be truly offensive to a large group of people is in some way rewriting history.. i think of germany or other parts of europe.

  you don't see swastikas on buildings or statues of hitler or mussolini or other upper level generals in public.

  would it be good for a person (think jewish) to drive around a city and see hitler in a public park, even though it is "historical?

  Some of these people have no idea the meaning of the objects they're defaciing.

  Among a few: Admiral Farragut ("damn the torpedoes") fought to abolish slavery. The 54th Massachusetts was an all-black unit (depicted in the movie "Glory"), several others have been vandalized. A memorial to three black men lynched, in Minnnesota without trial. The list goes on.

  On Simon's thread about what we've been doing while stuck at home I mentioned that an alternate history novel I wrote is now on Amazon. Both KIindle and Print versions are available. He told me to post a link, see below. The set up is the United States never bought Alaska and coming out of their war with Russia the Japanese did. Mayhen ensues.

  I'm now editing the sequel, the draft of the third book in the trilogy is done. Book 2 should be up this summer, and the third in the fall. After that I have two novels based VERY loosely on my time with the JW's. They're the first things I wrote and need a lot of work. I hope to have the first one done sometime next spring. You'll hear more when I'm done.

  What Fun Things Have You Been Doing While In Lock-Down?

  by Simon in

  so we've all been locked down and there's only so much netflix / prime / disney / hbo you can watch and computer games you can play.

  what has everyone been doing to pass the time?.

  when you're completely stuck inside and working from home it can get a bit boring staring at the same walls all day and then in the evening as well.

  Phoenixrising, that's also an impressive gun collection. What is the long gun on the rights side? My first guess is a Sharps Carbine.

  Thanks Simon. Here are the links, if these work I'll start a thread.

  This link will get you to both Kindle Ebook and print versions.

  I published an alternate history novel (1910:War in the Pacific) on Amazon in April. . I'm currently doing edits on the sequel (1912: War for the White House). I hope to have that available sometime this summer. The draft manuscript for 1916: War for America is done, edits should be done by this fall. That will finish the trilogy, but I have ideas for two more after that.
  

  I've been working on two novels based very loosely on my association with JW's. They were the first long fiction I wrote and need A LOT of work before they're ready for publication.

  Bottom line: I'm happy as a pig is s*** sitting at home and writing away.
