I wish it were that easy, I have children and grandchildren. I won't leave them. If I die fighting, then so be it, but I won't leave and give these idiots the satisfaction of capitulation by a leftie. On top of that, it won't be long before some countries say fuck you, you're not coming here and infecting our people with your misguided thoughts and deeds.

ThatтАЩs my feeling about it all, too. This is my fucking country. The traitors and Nazi lunatics can all go fuck off. IтАЩm 72 years old, my kids and grandkid live here in town, IтАЩm in the process of buying a goddam condo right now, and this is where IтАЩll stay til I die, which increasingly I hope wonтАЩt be for too much longer. ThatтАЩs it.

I'm 78, and my husband is 81. It's a horrible commentary on our situation that many of us in this age group are grateful that we have so few years left to live.

Also, kinda feels sometimes like thereтАЩs an undercurrent of national impatience that we olds arenтАЩt dying off quickly enough. I get it, weтАЩre expensive to take care of, to house and medicate for God knows how long!, plus weтАЩre just fucking OLD, and basically pretty useless. Simmer down, young тАШuns, weтАЩre working on it. IтАЩm only half-joking.

its pretty out in the open i(though in an underhanded way) to eliminate medical support in their attempts to underfund or eliminate Medicaid to pay for their tax cuts

Canada has accepted immigrants from worse countries. DonтАЩt count us out yet.

That's where we want to go. However, given our age and being retired, I don't think we'd be wanted. What are your thoughts?

I have thought about that: being refused entry by other countries. Time will tell. I completely understand why you wouldn't consider leaving. We have just one daughter, and she's not married so could come with us. If I were in your situation, I wouldn't go.

ItтАЩs absolutely insane that we are having conversations about leaving our country. I served in the USN over 50 years ago and I took an oath to defend against foreign and domestic, well we all know what we have. A fucking domestic terrorist in the WH and not just one. IтАЩm armed and will defend myself and my family. It sickens me to even think about it, but itтАЩs seems like weтАЩre left with no choice. When my SS doesnтАЩt show up, game on!
