Great questions:

If It can be shown that Trump won, then Biden should concede. Completely agree with that.

If Trump cannot get the courts to hear his case (and to the extent that I understand what has happened, a lot of Trump cases have been rejected for procedure reasons)—-he will have to leave. That is just how it’s goes.

That said: Biden should know that he can “win” with a fraud, but it is going to be super tough to govern with fraud and 50+% of the people believing he is illegitimate.

Massachusetts and DC were the only two states/districts to go for McGovern in ‘72.

‘72 was the most recent election in which a Republican carried Minnesota.

You can look it up.

I dunno bro: Somalians seem pretty thick on the ground there, no matter what the “official numbers” are. Take a trip to Minneapolis. Like Mogadishu, without the good weather.

I am not sure where to begin. Lived in Minnesota for many years and watched the natives closely.

(My background: Irish, English, Swedish, Spanish Catholic from the Boston area).

I’ll be honest: I found the native Minnesotans to be absolutely repellent people. They are horrible.

Cold, frigid personalities. Like the weather. No warmth or humanity. “Fargo” was understated.

Passive aggressive, self righteous windbags, regardless of political affiliation.

Being around them for many years: they are fucking creeps and deserve every Somalian grifter that lands on their welfare rolls. I say: send all the blacks from
Chicago there. Every last one of them.

The Minnesotans deserve it. What do you do with people who won’t take their own side?

Worthless
Pieces of shit. Amazing that the native Swedes and Norwegians are even worse. Whites will
Survive, but oy-vey do we have a lot of shit to carry with us.

I think you are on the right track:

Republicans need to just get a lot better at cheating and fraud than Democrats. No quarter for these aholes.

They deliver their votes first then we deliver the win. All of our dead people vote. All of the non-dead as well. Everyone mails in two, three, four, ten ballots apiece.

Based on what we can tell: there is no danger to fraud. You can’t be held accountable. Suits are too early (‘no standing’) or too late (‘laches’).

So let’s just flood the system with Republican votes. That is the game, game on.

I’ve always thought that “The Hunt for Red October” was a really great movie. I watch it all the time.

Likewise, “Master and Commander”.

My wife and I definitely love to watch movies like “My Big Fat Greek Wedding”.

I also love “The Verdict” with Paul Newman. Good one from the early 80s.

I’ll have to say: “Heathers” is one of the most loathesome movies I have ever watched.

I hate everyone involved. What a horrible, detestable movie. I hope every last person involved burns in hell.

I think you are right. No more whites in the projects there, but I could be wrong.
I think there are two major projects:
Old Colony and McCormack. I kept my distance.

We lived over in the Seaport—-completely great place to live. Absolutely beautiful place.

Absolutely. I think there were several cases of absolute innocents robbed, beaten, etc by these animals, however, by and large this was very rare and Southie was (and I think) is a very safe place to walk around in.

As a college kid (mid/late 80s) I had a job in a factory off of Dorchester Ave close to Broadway MBTA which involved working all sorts of shifts and weird hours—-there are some projects near there and was never bothered. I am 5’7” and 180 lbs—so not a bruiser.

My wife, daughter and I lived in Southie until 2017 (I am Boston born and raised: Dorchester raised; private school in Back Bay; Northeastern University, —-very Irish looking, but not too Irish by ancestry).

Southie is now ‘yuppie heaven’ with a few projects sprinkled in—-the Boston Police are very efficient and know their customer base.

Southie: Very safe, really nice section of Boston.

We now live in the South Central Part
Of the US, due to work.

When I was a kid: Southie was pretty safe—-I used to go there every Saturday morning to play hockey—-although super easy to get into a fight, if you were so inclined.

My mom’s office was also in Southie and never a problem. She always felt safe there.

To call Southie a “slum” of any kind world be wrong: mostly very good working class to middle class Irish American folks: really good peeps.

The scum there seemed to mostly keep to one another with the Boston Police dropping the hammer with frequency.

Boston’s is older.

“Boston’s is basically streetcars…”

Red Line: Heavy rail. Dedicated right of way, no grade crossings. Underground between Andrew and MGH, then underground again Kendall/MIT to Alewife.

Orange Line: Heavy rail. Dedicated right of way, no grade crossings. Underground through downtown.

Blue Line: Heavy rail, dedicated right of way, no grade crossings. Underground from Airport to Government Center, traveling under Boston Harbor as part of that trip.

Green Line, the oldest portion of the MBTA system:

4 branches, B, C, D and E (there used to be an A, but was eliminated in the 60s). Light rail aka ‘street cars’.

Underground and dedicated right of way for lines B, C and D to Kenmore (Fenway Park). E is underground to Symphony, above ground at Northeastern.

Basically all of central Boston is underground.

Only branches B, C and E are above ground and share the street with traffic for part of their run, west of town.

C and E are are semi-dedicated rights of way. They don’t do a lot of traffic blocking. (E does a bit west of Brigham Circle to Arborway).

D runs west to Newton, dedicated right of way, no grade crossings (Steve: through a golf course—-I have played there a bunch of times).

B may be your culprit.

Boston would collapse, absent the MBTA: too many folks in a small area.
