@glitterbag,
And also it's pretty hard to insult something like that, you just end up insulting the insult, call him an arse, you're insulting arses, call him a ****...

I can't think of anything that would work.

It's would be anyone's guess as to who's filthier, eh? The illegals detained by ICE, or their commie-ass supporters:

Portland, Ore., to clean up 'disgusting' Occupy ICE camp, calling it biohazard

City officials in Portland, Ore., say they'll be cleaning up the “disgusting” Occupy ICE camp after police cleared the area of protesters Wednesday. Meanwhile, the Portland Police Bureau has cordoned off the site, calling it a biohazard.

Activists set up the camp near the local office of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement after an outcry over the agency's crackdown on illegal immigrants.

Mayor Ted Wheeler publicly ordered the Occupy ICE protesters to leave the camp Monday, but they ignored the mayor’s request. That prompted Portland police to step in and clear the protesters.

The city is having contractors clean up the mess left by the activists. Debris being cleared Wednesday included. makeshift toilets, plastic containers, liquor bottles, tents and furniture, photos published by the Oregonian showed. The city doesn’t yet have an estimate of the total cost of the cleanup.


Contractors? After incarcerating all of their sorry asses, they should be put on the little clean-up crew at the local jail, eh?

Is there some sort of restriction on the importing of such plants?

I think Europe is much more discerning about food and additives than the US.

@realjohnboy,
Yes, I don't think Europe does GMO, or does it to a very limited extent.

By the way, they live about two years longer than us, on average. Canadians too.

@glitterbag,
Have to take your word for it, I haven't been to Europe. But I will say this: The American food companies have steamrolled us into consuming a ton of estrogenic additives and we are seeing the results everyday, bit by bit. Not just obesity, but a whole host of ailments. Europeans and Canadians have been harder to steamroll, and it pays off in longer life and greater health.

The use of genetically modified organisms is possible in the EU. This concerns both the cultivation of genetic engineering plants and the import of such products as food and animal feed.
At EU level, many genetically modified plants are authorised for marketing and use as food and feed.
However, all products must be labelled - "100% GMO free" sells better.

And this is how it should be everywhere, Walter.

People need to be treated with respect, and dignity.

Quite a simple concept, really.

@Builder,
That's why the import of US-soybeans won't be big success.

4. So why couldn’t Trump pardon these probes away?
Because state and local prosecutors, particularly those in New York, may be able to bring state charges against some of the same people Mueller is probing, and the president’s pardon power doesn’t extend to state crimes. Trump associates seen as most vulnerable to state charges include Manafort, who was reportedly a subject of investigation by the New York attorney general, and Cohen, who lives in New York and is the subject of a criminal probe by Manhattan federal prosecutors. (He hasn’t been charged with wrongdoing.) Trump’s campaign, which Manafort led, was headquartered at Trump Tower in New York, and Manafort owned New York real estate. Cohen faces almost $300,000 in state and city tax warrants on taxicab medallions he owns and had a business associate, "Taxi King" Evgeny Freidman, who’s pleaded guilty to failing to pay taxes. Even if federal charges are dropped, the prospect of state charges could provide an incentive to cooperate.
Instead of a list of actual state charges against actual people, I'm hearing a lot of speculation and maybes here.

Now that the suit moves to the phase of gathering and presenting evidence, it provides the hope that the public will, finally, get to see President Trump’s tax returns and possibly other documentation of his business interests. That, in and of itself, would make the exercise worthwhile. But this suit is about much more than that, or even whether President Trump should divest from one particular hotel. It’s about whether he is subject to the rule of law, and given his efforts to squirm out of his myriad other legal entanglements, that’s an important principle indeed.
If any of these lawyers leak Trump's private information to the public, they can look forward to disbarment and prosecution.

If the courts force Trump to sell any property for below market prices, the taxpayers will have to reimburse him.

Although, by the time this case winds its way through the courts, Trump will probably have already served his eight years in office.

Australia has non-GM rapeseed (Canola oil crop) and the demand is yuuuuuuuge for that. Like I've said all along, buyer demand will direct the market, and those who've succumbed to the GMO bandwagon will regret it, eventually.

Trump should probably think of six more months in office instead of six years....

Trump will stay in office until 2025. The Republicans will hold the White House until at least 2037.

Fascism reveals itself on the Left, not the Right

This is just the latest attempt to censor the American Right by the Left-wing Nazis who run the Silicon Valley tech giants — and it comes about a week after Google/YouTube, Facebook and Twitter were defended by Democrats during a congressional hearing aimed at uncovering improper censoring of conservatives. Some Democratic members even called for outright bans against Infowars and other sites they claim are pushing “conspiracy theories” (by those standards the Washington Post, CNN, The New York Times, USA Today and every other establishment media publication should also be shut down for pushing baseless conspiracies about POTUS Trump and “Russian collusion”).

In addition to curbing Right-leaning, Trump-supporting voices, the social media behemoths are also trying to starve smaller conservative and independent sites to death. Banning or censoring or down-rating content from conservative and independent media also reduces the amount of revenue those sites need to remain in business. And of course, the Left-wing establishment media is right on board with it.

How progressives cannot see what they really want is totalitarianism is amazing.

As one reader responded to the linked New York Times article in the above paragraph noted, it’s fascist to use any method aimed at shutting down speech and expression, no matter how offensive you may personally find it. “Choose your fascism,” the reader noted because it’s the same no matter which side of the political fence it’s coming from.

@oralloy,
Trump will be out of office a few months after Mueller releases his report, which is certain to be scathing, considering how many of Trump's appointees seem to spend their spare hours meeting with Russian officials and then lying about it.

Makes you wonder how much stuff with the Russians Trump's appointees didn't get caught at. Yet.

No. First, there is no reason to think that Trump did anything wrong.

Second, in the unlikely event that it is proven that he did commit some sort of crime, after Bill Clinton no one is going to care.
