Dear me, Ray, that looks like an awful lot of blood! So how many Americans have been killed by illegal immigrants? I thought it was 6 last I heard, but perhaps you have a better source of reliable...

How do you know all these things, Ray? What is your inside scoop?

Hey Ray, how did you get all this amazing inside information about who these supposed refugees really are?

Not surprising that those suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome can't take a joke...or see humor that isn't at the expense of Trump.

We do need to stay connected...

Never my president!
He is illegitimate.
Remember: Hillary is the rightful president!

What do you mean by "viscous" ?

I basically agree with you that we don't all need to think alike, and that we should strive to remain in connection with each other on the basis of our common...

Hey Ray, I'm actually delighted to see these very well drawn cartoons that come with a right-wing perspective! It's a rare treat, where do you find them, send more! I love the sinister, deranged...

Humor is entirely subjective, isn't it?

I often find the "humorous" cartoons posted on this board viscous, uninformed, one-sided and bitter. That said, I hope we can all still laugh at our own...

Political humor is by nature controversial. If we choose to judge what's funny in a political cartoon, maybe we just don't get it. Look at our current president. Can we all agree that the guy is...

Thanks for your thoughtful response. I wasn't only defending a personal situation, but speaking for those homeless people I've met, and helped, last year. Although I'm much better now...

I love food! And I love choice! However, I don't like shopping. For anything. I like to just get in and get out, and have a good experience, of course. I watch my food budget, but I do splurge....

Ever since the owner of Whole Foods said he was against ObamaCare and that Americans wouldn't need health insurance if they shopped at his store, I have boycotted Whole Foods. He's a Texas...

Sorry, that was a sarcastic remark, not sincere at all, and very unlike me! But I'm glad to see people speaking up about WF, even though they still shop there. Habits are are to...

Thanks so much for the details, I'll have to check it out when I'm in the area. My phrase that "Whole Foods needs our support" was actually tongue in cheek sarcasm.:wink2: (Shame on me!)

Whole Foods needs our support, now more than ever!

really?

wow! i am very interested in shandi's last line in her post that states the about re: WF needing our support now more than ever...i...

I'm confused about Community Market being "worker owned". I looked it up a few weeks ago, and according to what I read, it's not actually "worker owned". Maybe someone from Community Market can...

I would like to add that the meat counter at Community Market, by Victorian Farmstead is outstanding. All of their products come from sustainable ranches in Sonoma and Marin counties.

We are indeed fortunate to have a worker owned alternative to Whole Foods. Though I have frequented their hot food bar since it began, they only change their menu about once or twice a week. ...

Like many in our community, I want to support the local non-profit Community Market that opened in the Barlow, for many reasons. Local ownership, local produce, ALL organic, friendly service, etc.

Yes, you are correct that the harder question is whether GMOs are too dangerous to pursue. Too bad the people who have already pursued them didn't even attempt to evaluate that.
