Should Trump go to the funeral, Yes b/c he is the leader BUT since he knows he would not be received well there and quite frankly why should he waste his time, I don't and can't blame him for not going. Nobody would take his presence as genuine anyway and most people there would likely turn his presence into some kind of disaster. Not the place for that. Let the guy lye in peace. Obama, McCain, and Lewis are actual politicians. Trump business man. Obama and McCain's differences were politcal and not personal. Sadly our current president is mature enough in the emotionally mature department Obama and McCain did work together on spying on trump 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm one of those guys who believe the President of the USA should have at least been part of our Military; any branch, any level, any rank. I didn't trust Obama to some degree because of it and trust Trump far less because of it. I voted for McCain as a write-in and where Trump lost my support was when he made the comments about McCains time as a POW and what he actually went through. Then Trump makes the statement "I like soldiers who don't get caught". Our POW's (white, black, brown, Asian, Indian, etc...) make the ULTIMATE sacrifice in that situation. Trump forgets he and his family would never had the opportunity to make their millions in this great country had it not been for soldiers like McCain making past sacrifices. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spying on a campaign is good in your opinion?? That's shocking. I voted for McCain simply because he was the republican nominee. Didn't necessarily care for him but I had no desire to vote for Obama. I didnt exactly like the comment trump made but trump didn't exactly like McCain knew he helped with the steele dossier and let his feelings be known. He did send a plane to fly the body back to Washington in the end I'm not big into these rotunda wakes or whatever you wanna call it. These are politicians and honestly there's probably a big majority of people that could care less about these people 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there was something about Trump and his "associates" that even I thought our Country should be very extremely cautious, if not overly cautious, of when it comes to national security, national funds, national trade secrets/deals, etc... Just seemed like too many criminal hands were looking to reach into the proverbial pot. He's just not as transparent as he should be to be our President but that's my opinion and doesn't mean he couldn't have been a good one. I just thought/still think, that in the end, he has an alternate agenda for he and his family/associates and it doesn't have any concern for how our country ends up.

Cat_Scratch Posted July 28, 2020 Report Share Posted July 28, 2020 This spot 45 mins north of me... More shark bites from there to Sebastin Inlet than anywhere in the world. I see sharks there almost every other time I surf there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well hell, there’s “bait” in the water, probably looks like a seal on that board. Just watched a surfer surf right by someone, pretty close proximity it looked like.

(unless you hear call of a party wave 🤣) Snakes not generally tolerated in such an environment. They actually usually don't get run over, but sometimes a spear to the ear can be a warning shot. But that's big stuff tho and serious, small waves the atmosphere is usually very chill.

Never seen them while I'm in the water. Some Fishermen say they see them about 1000 yards out from the inlet. That's close but no real threat. I surf monster hole where we see 3 types often, Tiger, Hammer Head and bull. All 3 will attack humans. Had a 12 foot tiger turn around on me many years ago. So close I could see his eye move as he when past me. He turn and I paddled like a madman and caught a wave that would have been out of my ability. Didn't stand up until the second break. I was a freakin mess for the rest of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't mention his name but after the 5th time I dropped in right side of him and cut back hard and put a 4 inchcut in his board. He is lucky I didn't pop my nose up and spear him. He said what the fuck man? I said it's called respect for fellow surfers dude. Then said I would meet him on the beach and he could bring his bro's too.
