Sorry, hovey, you said exactly that. Did you want to clarify your statement?
Sorry, dx, I didn't.
Here is what rufus attributed to me:
"You yourself said just yesterday that you aren't worried about anything this president does until he starts rounding up and arresting people."
I'll wait. Go ahead and find a quote by me where I state that I'm not worried about anything this president does until he starts rounding up and arresting people.
The whole "arrest" discussion centered around a USA Today article, and then someone's question to me about whether I was worried about Trump's threat to arrest journalists. I said that I had no concern about Trump arresting journalists. He simply doesn't have the ability to do that, even as President.
I can't help it that some people (not journalists, by the way) are pizzing themselves worried that Trump is going to round up all the journalists in a gulag. But I don't worry about it.
But how you leap from that to rufus interpretation of my post is something someone else will have to explain.
That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

Ummm so from the time you said you'll wait for someone to find something, you only got one more sentence out before saying what we're supposed to find. At least make us work for it

If they're going to try to find what they think I posted, as opposed to what I actually posted, they are going to have to work for it.

JFC...
I need to quit paying attention to the news. I'm rapidly reaching a point of no return where all I want to see is republicans leaders dying. Just flat out dying. The republicans running congress have it in their power to say "no more." They can decide enough is enough and America needs a re-set and a return to some form of the ideals it was founded on. Fvck, just read the inscription at the Statue of Liberty. Yet they turn a blind eye to all of it. Every story that comes out with yet another example of how those in positions of power are behaving reprehensibly or criminally is met with silence or approval by nearly every republican. Fvck them all. They all should die today.

Doesn't the article say that the report documents abuses that occurred between 2009 and 2014, during the period the Obama administration was running DHS? Not that I blame Obama for the actions of a bunch of perverted border agents, but I'm curious about your response.

Depends which part he's referring to but the separation of kids from their parents is not an Obama era policy.
But yes, it's one of many no so bright spots on Obama's record.

Remnants. 43's fault.
The preceding post may contain trigger words and is not safe-space approved. <-- Virtue signaling.

We often don't discover problems until after the fact. Sometimes long after the fact. I want to see republicans in congress scream from the highest mountaintop this is wrong. In America we protect children. Or at least we're supposed to. I don't care if it happened yesterday, last year or 10 years ago. Hold the loose cannons in law enforcement responsible and make sure it doesn't happen again. I'm not holding my breath. So all republicans can still go fvck themselves.

Yeah, except the story clearly points out that the abuse of the 116 children was reported years ago, and in 2014 DHS apparently couldn't figure out what happened, so it's not like it was just discovered now.
There is no shame in admitting that you only read the first two paragraphs of the link before coming on here to rant about it.
