Lame...there's a bad word in there, guess you have to click thru to YouTube to watch it

Like.

Almost no one is as deserving of that as Rand Paul.

WTF is his motivation for always ragging on Fauci, anyway.? Is shooting the messenger really it?

That's what you do when you got nothin, kill the messenger.

When your target electorate is a bunch of fuckin idiots, you have to be a fuckin idiot, or at least act like one, to get elected.

That's how Kentucky, the sh!ttiest state in the country, ends up with Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell.

Kentucky is one of the more beautiful states I have driven through and spent time in.
While it may be easy to point and laugh and what you deem to be a hick state, take a look at our own, or just the sh!t hole that is Seattle, before throwing stones.

I was there a couple months back it's a nice state.. No wait its a fuking shithole just like Idaho..

Stick to the nice places like the Seattle metro area, Willamette valley, and California. Nothing but racists and peodphiles in the red states.

Correction, Idaho is a beautiful state inhabited by anti American sh1theads.

Kentucky may have some pretty sights...but...

#48 in fiscal stability.

#44 in health care.

#40 in economy.

#47 in poverty.

#45 in education.

#49 in the Socialism Scale...they take $2.61 for every tax dollar they contribute, and 40% of the entire state's income is federal assistance.

Median income: $27,000

Etc., etc., etc...

It is a shithole in every single social, economic and educational category...but by all means, tell me how nice looking the trees are.

They do fuk sheep here in the rural areas, you'll fit in just fine..

He would fit in easily.
The problem is length.....................If only it was long enough to achieve penetration.

The people generally dicks like the residents of Seattle.

Their parks aren't dual purpose campgrounds like Seattle/pnw.

Their needle to grass ratio is way lower in their parks.

Average person can afford to buy a house.

A cop will actually show up if you call them.

Not a filthy sh!thole like well most of the west coast. The dirtiest states I've visited are California, Oregon, then Washington..

But it doesn't smell like pee when I walk around down town.
I think you and I plan our road trips very differently.

Lol, don't let the door hit ya in the ass.

You country bumbkins are comparing rural places to urban places which is always gonna be apples to oranges. How about comparing Louisville to Portland?

I googled crime statistics and found some fancy website for real estate:

Louisville is less safe than similar areas and scores a 473.4 and has “higher than average crime”.

Portland is considered okay and scores a 302.0 “lower than average crime”.

I am sure many places in Louisville smell like piss and I am pretty sure the rural places in Kentucky have similar folks to rural places here in WA.

It's pretty easy to have a low crime rate when you don't enforce any laws.

Downtown Louisville seemed nice in comparison to Downtown pdx, sea, or sfo..

See you later, then.

Enjoy your catfish and ditch pickles.

Don't write - I won't miss you.

I spent a summer in Kentucky (about 60 miles south of Louisville). It was hot as hell and pretty boring, but it was easy on the eyes, and folks were friendly. Louisville was a bit "rough," even then, but it is a large city, so.... Kentucky gives us bourbon, so there must be SOME redeeming qualities afoot there.

To McConnell's credit (he doesn't deserve a ton), he sponsored radio adds on 100 stations to promote vaccines. I have full confidence he'll find a way to turn this apparent good to evil, but at least for now, kudos to you, Moscow Mitch. Rand Paul is an irredeemable, arrogant a$$hole. Glad he was not my doctor. Surprised he didn't get along better with Trump, but at least he has enough sense to know that guy's a bit much....

I already live in the land of ditch pickles and catfish. (Along with a bunch of other fun fish to catch including slime rockets)

I gtfo 2 years ago, only complaint was I didn't do it sooner.

I'll send my letters to some other make a wish foundation kid.. There's no cure for dwarfism..

I don't suffer from dwarfism, dumbfuck. Your brain does.

I have the same complaint - I wish you'd left sooner. Glad you left. Be sure to stay gone.

Besides being garbage in every measurable category, the urban areas in Kentucky are worse than the urban areas here in western Washington.

And...don't forget where that "40% of Kentucky's income" comes from...it comes from taxpayers in states like Washington and California, where people pay a lot more in taxes than they get back, unlike those right wing Socialists in Kentucky.

I do like Kentucky bourbon, though, and I'm glad I don't have to go to that schitty third world state to get it.

Fish on...

I'd visit Kentucky in a heartbeat, but I'm fond of the country vs "the city". Not overly fond of Kentucky bourbon, as I prefer Canadien Blends.

I have a very close friend pushing 80yo that migrated to WA in his mid 20's and right away he discovered steelhead/salmon on the Snohomish system. While the returns are a fraction of what they once were, he is still aggressively hunting these fish, as he was raised a harvester in Kentucky. He returns there at least twice a year to fish striped bass on multiple reservoirs, and to hunt whitetails in multiple counties. From what I've been told by a native, Kentucky is a sportsman's paradise excluding saltwater species. I've been meaning to go back and experience the striped bass and whitetail killing, as his family has it dialed in! I need to do it soon, as time keeps moving along. His "wall" in the family barn is quite impressive with all the horns...all from public land.

You flunked geography I see.
Saltwater species?

I like Ashley Judd. Good ole Kentucky gal. Her mom and sister make alot of dough singing. Ashley is a UK alum.

I see you didn't pass basic remedial reading either..

BTW stripers live in both fresh water and saltwater dumfuk..

I would love to visit Kentucky, and everywhere else, too...just wouldn't want to live there, be subjected to those fuckin idiotic politicians, or be part of the worst economy in the country.

Fish on...

Todd

Or you could sell your house in Seattle, buy half the fukkin state, kill piles of whitetails and actually go fishing with the expectation of double digits instead of random ass closures.

Or you could go to Mighican (tied with illinois as my 2 least favorite mid west states to visit) and catch double digit tules and steeles (along with sh!t loads of ditch pickles etc)

Kentucky was nice. Blue grass, white picket fences, and racing horses galore.

Seriously some nice/pristine looking horse estates. I swear the blue grass was manicured by hand and the wooden fences were painted daily.

Fuucking repubs ruin everything!

Look how the economy was so fuucked before the demons took office!

Sad!

The only thing that you can see is that your colostomy bag is full, old man. Over the years I've skipped past hundreds of your responses (here or back on ifish) as they were useless drivel, just as your response was above. Once again you set yourself up nicely, proving that you have always been a fukkin' imbecile.

BTW (by the way) It appears that the stage 3 dementia has exacerbated over the past several months, as you're now sliding into Stage 4. You better go do some fun things now while you can remember them...like taking your boat out. If you're still allowed to drive? If not, ya probably can't remember your way back home and that's probably why you are so angry...

And I've read what you have written.
Still struggling I see.
Good luck with that.

Been to Kentucky on business WAY MORE than I'd care to admit. Can confirm it's an utter chithole, but it's a very easy place to get your drunk on. Hot browns washed down with Bourbons starts a day off nicely. Horses are entirely overrated.

Just one of the benefits of being a slave state. Is it any wonder that Mitch and Rand don't want everyone to be able to vote?

Interesting statistic on Portland, it had 0 DUI citations in the last 2 months, neighboring Beaverton is averaging around 90 a month.

The cops are doing such a good job that they ended Drunk driving for the fine citizens of Portland..

Hippies, antifa and homeless don’t drive cars, Mannnnnnn

Was in Portland recently and can confirm it’s looking pretty $hitty in some parts. Saw about 6 vehicles with personally added boots on them to stop theft. I saw about 6 roof top cargo boxes left wide open as to make it clear they are empty. Saw a lot of cars with broken windows.

Visited friends in a nice neighborhood and saw 2 POS cars full of derelicts looking for something to steal. These rigs were so [Bleeeeep!] and driving in circles through a neighborhood and very out of place.

The town does have an air of lawlessness. You just see signs of petty crime everywhere. People are straight loco for paying what they pay for an ordinary house on an ordinary street in that town.

Another weird thing is you just don’t see kids playing anywhere outside except parks and under parental supervision. It does not feel like a family friendly town anymore.

Looking?
In "some" parts?
Thanks for the breaking news.

A local perspective from fellow fishermen..

Thank you for raising my blood pressure to boiling….

I've been going through Portland about once a month for the last several years. I agree completely with this. I don't even like getting off the freeway there anymore and I won't leave my car out of my sight in that city. Notice that all the crime is in areas that don't allow carry of loaded guns or even loaded magazines without a CPL that they won't give to out of state residents. Total fvcking bullsh!t.

Usually in Washington anytime I leave the house I have a a 9mm ghost gun, and anytime I leave the town I live in I take an AR-15 ghost gun with 6 loaded mags, a black ski mask, handcuffs and a knife in addition to the 9mm ghost gun but you can't have any of that loaded in Portland. So in Portland I bring a 20 gauge 16 inch barrel youth shotgun (because it's smaller and easier to maneuver around inside a car) with a half dozen shells of 00 buck in my pocket. Usually when there are sketchy people I put the black ski mask on just for the intimidation factor. If someone starts fvcking with you it's really easy slip and shell or two in and the click-clack of a shotgun is easily recognizable to anyone. Nobody fvcks with a guy wearing a black ski mask and holding a shotgun. Walking around Portland I always strap a KaBar to my belt and carry a 4 D-cell battery maglite in my hand to use as a club. You could also bring pepper spray or a taser if you don't feel like beating a scumbag junkie to death with a maglite or gutting them with a knife.

Portland is a total sh!thole full of disgusting degenerates, criminals and junkies. Even worse than Seattle by far.

Sounds like post Katrina (post as in right after it has bounced back a bit) New Orleans. Nice going, liberals.

Unfortunately that's the vast majority of the city now (PDX proper). I've had a CHL off and on for years, the only time I ever felt it necessary to carry was the last 6 months I lived in Portland. I don't want to carry a gun, my dicks small enough as is.

When people post Portland has a low crime rate, it's bull sh!t, it's a low crime enforcement rate. And your sentiment on kids is 100% correct, we stopped letting the kids play in the street in 2019 and the final straw was when I pulled my gun on a tweaker rummaging through my garage at 3am. 0 fu@ks are given about the place by it's people, easily shown by the filth everywhere.

I gladly traded Mormons for tweakers..

Portland actually has a high crime rate even with the low crime enforcement rate.

"With a crime rate of 59 per one thousand residents, Portland has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities ... Importantly, when you compare Portland to other communities of similar population, then Portland crime rate (violent and property crimes combined) is quite a bit higher than average." - https://www.neighborhoodscout.com/or/portland/crime#description

I am not great on math, but these numbers seem about right to me. If the math is wrong, feel free to correct me.

The average car theft results in approx. a $9000 loss. Divide that by 59 and that means a loss of around $152 a year per car owner. While not everyone has their car stolen, most have insurance, and the cost is added in, along with administration costs. I would guess that auto theft is costing each car owner around $20 a month. For most families that probably is around $40 a month. Add in productivity losses, and it seems it would be better for anyone to start taking it seriously.
I often see stolen cars in during work. Some sit there for a week or more before they are finally recovered. There was one down the street from me this week. This street probably has a sheriff drive down it 5-10 times or more a day. It sat there for a week. I saw on line that someone in the neighborhood tracked down the owner themselves and the owner recovered it. The laziness of the police in the area is disgusting.

There was one a few years back that had disabled plates veterans plates on it. It sat in the local school parking lot, parked across stalls, with all the windows open for about a week. I pointed it out to my kids on day one. The local deputies normally park in the lot to fill out paperwork. They decided against it for the entire week. I finally called it in and was told it was no private property so they would not do nothing, but if I got the license plate they would call the owner. I went back, got the plate and called it in. Looking it the windows, it was clear it had been vandalized. Drove by 2 hours later and it was gone. I would guess that it was passed by over 200 times or more during the week by the sheriff's department and probably another 50 or more by state patrol officers. But, I guess, it was too hard for them to stop and call it in.
I see enough that I keep track of how long it will take for them to get recovered. Had another car nearby that was run into a fence on a parcel owned by Tacoma City light.. The back window was broken out. Again, this was on a fairly busy road. On average I see an officer go by around every 1 to 2 hours. It was over a week before it was tagged and called in.

But, I saw a great article recently about how they recovered a stolen car in just a few hours. Of course, the article did mention it was owned by a deputy.

In the comparison of the 2 tallest midgets here.

PDX has a crime rating of 2 (% of crappiest cities)

Louisville has a crime rating of 5 (% of crappiest cities)

Seattle incidentally, which is also sh!ttier than Louisville as well (4)

How dare you refer to people in such derogatory ways. They are people with dwarfism! Person first language. You should educate yourself and stop following Donald Trump. Portland and a Seattle are amazing cities with amazing people and we need to look out and care for everyone! The people of these amazing cities need lots of love and support and we should start with free healthcare and basic universal income so they are provided the necessities they need to live their lives free of worry.
