It can only mean one thing: that guy's cock is very small.

 

Because if you get raped by a guy with a huge cock while unconscious, you will feel a burning pain in your ass when you wake up.

 

The fact that not one of the men felt anything means that his cock size is negligible.  :lol:

 

Maybe he only mouthfuck the guys, no anal.

Don't read and response to guests' post

with or without 377A, raping is criminal regardless of genders.

Well, based on reading the article, you would need to be straight, and drugged in order to engage him to sexually assault you. Since you are gay, and willing, I don't think that will satisfy him. 🤠Maybe if you are drugged and unaware what is happening/.

He only wants fresh meat. Those virgin and deflower them.

Why must is the MSM keep on reporting this news? This will cast more doubts on LGBTQIA+! We are already suffering being in this community in Singapore with 377a. Media sites like this should not cast more spotlight on this!

3. What I don't understand is, how the victims never had any "itches" at their anus. I mean someone raping you 3 times to 8 times (there is one case with 8 rapes) in one night, no bleeding, no pain? No leakage of cum from the anus? Sure after having taking the drug you feel numb somehow, but the anus must have some injury if entering was forceful. But maybe the reason is a different, why the guys did not feel the penetration afterwards, refer to No. 7.

 

7. He was a top, but I very much guess probably not that big tooled. I even tend to guess he is extremely far below average in his size. I guess he received 8 out of 10 rejections from the Caucasian gay guys and most had no intention for any sex with him. He was turned down by other gay guys when it came to sex. Why would you start luring straight guys to your flat, drug them and rape them? You probably would not need to do this, if you live openly gay and are attractive to others. But if you only receive rejections from other gays? I can only assume. But it seems obvious to me. He mostly was rejected by the Manchester gay guys.

Think so too. I met 2 guys in SEA where the erected dick was just as big as my small finger. (both were same ethnic origin in SEA) Erected maybe 2 - 2.5" and very thin. I assume the rapist belongs to the same category. Everything above 4" a virgin ass would surely have injuries for forced penetration or some sort of pain. 

But it can be the overall hangover feeling from the GHB and alcohol reduced the feeling of the pain at the anus or the pain was clouded due to other pain in head... 

What would Dr.T say to this? @Dr T

Can it be the guys did not feel any pain even after rape penetration? And if not why?

I know it is premature, but I cannot resist my satisfaction over the first preliminary results of the 2020 elections for US president.

 

"Mayor Pete"  Buttigieg, my favorite, is in first place.  :thumb: :thumb:

Bernie Sanders,  my second favorite, is in second place. :thumb:

Elizabeth Warren, who I was neutral about until her abominable attack against Sanders, is in third place, a notable distance from the other two.

Joe Biden,  a cheap politician whom I dislike, is in fourth place.

Amy Klobuchar,  an odious woman always with a fake smile,  is in fifth place. a while below the other four.

 

These results can change at any time,  but I am so happy for these results that match so well my preferences,  a happiness that makes up for my frustration to see Trump acquitted in his impeachment trial.   In reality I should not be so choosy,  and be satisfied if ANY democrat wins over Trump in November.

I don't think he's going to even make it to the top of his party's election. There is an age criteria, otherwise that crazed btch ex-bartender AOC would have run under the Demorats ticket. Then the world is really screwed.

 

Why are you calling Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez those terrible names? Do you know anything about her? Highly unlikely, so my sincerest advice to you is to stop watching Fox News and reading right wing websites, because they only care about keeping the corrupt, evil, greedy 1% billionaires in power while screwing over normal people all around the world. They are the real spreaders of "fake news" in multiple countries.

 

Here are some facts about the Congresswoman. As a high school student, she discovered an asteroid while participating in a science contest, and the asteroid is now named after her. That alone is more than the vast majority of people who ignorantly criticise her have ever done in their lives. As a student at Boston University, she was a member of one of the last groups to serve as interns for Senator Ted Kennedy before he died, and went on to graduate with honors while earning degrees in international relations and economics (also danced in a music video).

 

She started working as a bartender as a second job after her father died in order to help her mother prevent their home from falling into foreclosure following the Great Recession. Have you ever sacrificed like that for your family? She got involved in politics by advocating for local concerns and then becoming a volunteer for Bernie Sanders in his failed campaign against Hillary Clinton. Realizing that her district's Congressman Joe Crowley had grown out of touch with the citizens of their area, she defeated him, and became the youngest US Congresswoman ever.

 

It looks to me like she is a perfect example of the American Dream -- a daughter of immigrants who studied hard, got an education, learned from experts in her chosen field, saw problems, and tried (is trying) to do something about those problems. Every country could use more "ex-bartenders" like her in government rather than the corrupt scumbags who continue stealing money and doing everything they can to harm regular people.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a principled woman who applies her gifted intelligence to the good cause.  This is why she has endorsed Bernie Sanders.  

 

 

 

 

Years ago, Pete Buttigieg wrote an essay praising Bernie Sanders for his courage,  and he is another highly intelligent person working for the good cause.  

 

https://www.newsweek.com/pete-buttigieg-bernie-sanders-high-school-essay-award-1477962

 

They both give me satisfaction seeing them running head-to-head as top choices in the Iowa caucus.  I wouldn't mind either of them winning the Democrat nomination and thereafter the presidency.  I worry a little about the health, strength of Sanders,  and I hope for the distinction of having a gay man become the US president.  And, ideally,  if one becomes president, the other could be the vice-president....   but this may be asking for too much  :D

Are you seriously using a tweet by anti-gay former Donald Trump henchman Sebastian Gorka as a source on Blowing Wind? What is wrong with you? Gorka wishes all gay people were dead (unless they are related to him in which case he wants them forcibly converted into being straight people). Not the type of individual anyone in the LGBTQ community should be supporting!

 

Most importantly, though, you have not answered, in your own words, why you called Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez those rude names. I don't care about Gorka's words. I know already that he hates gays, blacks, Asians, Hispanics, Muslims, Jews, and other minorities. AOC is a woman who works hard and is trying to help fix her nation's problems. Not a crazy bitch.

There is already a thread dedicated to Former Mayor Pete Buttjudge and the rest of the American Election Campaign, so maybe a moderator can merge this topic with the original and add Buttjudge's name to the title, as we don't need Blowing Wind spammed with numerous posts about a racist out-of-touch tone-deaf unqualified small city ex-official (the sort of person that would type "No Asians" in a Grindr profile) who thinks a couple of years in that job, plus a short stint in the military, makes him ready to be president of the world's most powerful nation.

And who are you to meddle in my country's affairs? A small town daydreamer who is nothing more than an ignorant local Indian undergraduate, and one who think he know-it-all except that he has not even held any real full-time job in his entire life, except for a dubious couple of internships in some tiny startups plus a few years in the military? If you think you are so perfect, why don't you go run for Presidency in your own country? Oh! Don't worry, even Indians in your country can be certified to be Malays there. And if nothing works, your constitution can be changed to meet your needs.

Guest Dancing Around A Long Pole

No idea if he put "No Asians" on his Grindr account, or if he ever had a Grindr account, but his history of working with any citizens who are not white is not very good.

 

Why Pete Buttigieg Isn’t Carrying The Queer Vote

  • Another Buttigieg critic is Gregory Cendana. Now a consultant to nonprofits, Cendana, 33, was the first openly gay and youngest-ever executive director of the AFL-CIO–affiliated Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance. He’s also a founder of Queers Against Pete, a group that disrupted a Buttigieg fundraiser last month in Chicago.
  • “For me it’s less about his being gay and more about how he’s addressing the needs of the broader LGBTQ community, particularly trans folks, especially black and trans women of color. How are those folks engaged in decisions? It’s not always clear for me that’s the way Mayor Pete operates.”
  • Today, Cendana’s group is releasing an open letter to Buttigieg with roughly 2,000 signatories lambasting the candidate for his stances on police violence, incarceration, homelessness, and other threats that have a special impact on the LGBTQ community, especially people of color.
  • Some have touted former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg’s openly gay identity as proof of progress in our politics,” the letter reads. “However, being gay is not enough to earn the support of LGBTQIA communities.
  • Indeed, what’s come to be known as Buttigieg’s “race problem” clearly crosses over into the LGBTQ community as well. Though his disconnect with some African American pastors (and a greater number of white pastors) doubtless has to do with his being gay, the straight black community is hardly a boiling cauldron of homophobia. Case in point is the pivotal role of Maryland’s black voters in passing Question 6, the state’s marriage equality law, in 2012.
  • One longtime gay activist, Brian Gaither of Baltimore, contends that “Pete’s fundamental flaw as an LGBTQ candidate is his inability to see the world with a perspective wider than that of a cisgender gay white man whose greatest life struggle was deciding when to come out. The intersections among racism, economic inequality, sexism, and LGBTQ identity are where the movement is at — a fact Pete would have known had he participated in it before entering the race for president.

 

Racist Sociopath: Pete Buttigieg Called Out By Black Voters

  • Some have speculated Buttigieg’s failure to gain traction with black and brown voters stem from his tenure as the Mayor of South Bend, Indiana. As Buttigieg’s campaign moves forward, more reports and whistleblowers emerged claiming “Mayor Pete” perpetuated an environment of systemic racism in South Bend.
  • As a Councilman in #SouthBend, I know why @PeteButtigieg looked like a deer in headlights last night when talking about systemic racism in the South Bend Police. He tolerated it, he perpetuated it, and last night he lied to millions of Americans about it. — Henry Davis, Jr. (@iamhenrydavisjr) February 9, 2020
  • Of the more damning claims, that the three African Americans in visible, high-level leadership positions would be gone within three months of Buttigieg becoming Mayor of South Bend. This included the city’s first-ever black Police Chief, Darryl Boykins, who had been subjected to a racist campaign of harassment by white police officers who had been caught in recorded audio conspiring to remove him based on a desire to have “white people in charge.”

 

Mayor Pete’s Invisible Black Police

  • In January 2012, Pete Buttigieg stepped into the South Bend, Ind., mayor’s office after winning the city’s first open mayoral election in 24 years. South Bend had three African Americans in visible high level and public leadership positions: Mayor’s Assistant Lynn Coleman; Fire Chief Howard Buchanon and Police Chief Darryl Boykins.
  • Within three months, all three would be gone.
  • Boykins had served as a police officer in South Bend for 27 years before he was appointed as the city’s first (and to date, only) black police chief in 2007. In 2011, after the city’s police telephone recording system crashed, SBPD Communications Director Karen DePaepe discovered recordings of white officers allegedly using racist rhetoric and concocting a way to get rid of Boykins with the help of top donors to Buttigieg’s then-ongoing mayoral campaign. DePaepe made five cassette tapes of the most egregious remarks and described them in legal documents the city has had for years. One officer allegedly said: “It will be a fun time when all white people are in charge.
  • Soon after Buttigieg took office, word got out about the tapes and the officers complained that the recordings violated the Federal Wiretap Act. Even though the recording system had been in place for more than a decade, its existence somehow became the black guy’s fault.

 

In those articles and more, he does come across as an entitled rich white gay who can easily pretend to be straight, and doesn't care about people outside his circle.

I failed to see where the candidate "took on" hecklers, he just kept quiet and it was the attending crowd who shouted the heckler down. Once the heckler was told to go and left, he continued his speech with not reference of what happened. 

 

I m quite certain nowadays these online influencers and "know everything so well" type of internet addicted people, who post something every second would even find something at Mahatma Gandhi to tell us he was a racist and bellicose...

Guest Dancing Around A Long Pole

Why Pete Buttigieg Is Bad For Gays

  • There is a certain kind of gay guy. He is very likely white. He would say that he is in his “mid-thirties,” although he is much closer to the end than to the beginning of his last credibly young decade. Older women think he is handsome; younger men are not so sure. He is a professional of some kind — not ostentatiously wealthy, but comfortable enough to take the occasional ski trip in Colorado or spring vacation in Spain. He probably enjoys “the theater.” He is sure to mention at some point that he likes to read.
  • He will probably tell you a joke about how he “met his future spouse” on “an app,” but, he will laugh, “possibly not the app you’re thinking of,” which implies, well, Grindr. According to both Buttigieg and his husband, Chasten, they actually met on Hinge, which bills itself as the “relationship app,” and as a dating app for people who “want to get off of dating apps.” The joke is a good one for a largely gay crowd. It says that Mayor Pete knows about Grindr, just like you. He’s no prude! But it also lets him implicitly disapprove of the more explicitly sexual nature of Grindr. And there’s a constituency there. Among that certain kind of gay, saying “I’m not on Grindr” is the cultural equivalent of the equally snooty, “I don’t watch TV.”

[... ... ... ... ... ...]

  • Meanwhile, last year may have been one of the deadliest ever for trans women. The struggles of trans people, queer people of color, LGBTQ people who are rural, LGBTQ people who are poor, belie this neat onward-and-upward narrative, which is a story about a very particular kind of scrubbed, upwardly mobile, largely white, well-dressed, unutterably corny gay. The kind of gay who “wins the internet” by playing piano at a pops concert with Ben Folds. A business consultant, a military man, a practicing Christian, a husband — just like you, only more so.
  • In a recent interview with NBC’s Chuck Todd, Mayor Pete avowed himself a capitalist but called himself a “democratic capitalist.” The moderating and equalizing force of democracy, he said, must hold in check the tendencies of capitalism toward inequality, concentration, and corruption. But it is hard to escape the way that American capitalism and American democracy have worked in tandem both to dissipate and to assimilate the radical democratic energies of queer liberation by giving a very circumscribed sort of gay a conditional membership to the club.

You should not need to ask. 

 

What "Guest Superimposed Yourself" wrote is pure bullshit.

Same with what "Guest Dancing Around A Long Pole" posted.  

 

You can never trust what a "Guest" posts here.  And what he quotes has to be checked carefully.

Of course you know this,  since as a "Guest" you may understand why people post as guests and not as formally registered BW members.

 

So, if you really want to come closer to a truth,

1- don't take what "guests" write at face value.

2- get on the Internet and read the tons of articles written about Pete Buttigieg by people who are not for the GOP or competitors, trying to throw dirt on him.

3- listen to his speeches, and judge his good character by what he says and his demeanor.

4- see interviews of Pete by the media, political reporters.

 

This will convince you that Mayor Pete is a gay role model who, if he wins, will validate us gays as much as Obama did validate the Blacks.

Don't forget Singapore is a bit like your suburb in Houston. Everybody knows everyone. Even if you move your place, you will still bump into someone who is your ex classmate, work together in one of your previous jobs, met during your daily commute on public transport, Fitness club, somewhere else.  

Some people are shy to post a sex encounter or something else under their member profile. As Guest they can do. 

BW has that private message or chat. Some guys use it to contact others, then your anonymity is gone. 

 

For you it doesn't matter because: Ist der Ruf erst ruiniert, lebt es sich ganz ungeniert.

 

The problem is this Guest feature allows too many trolls, mental deranged people, "commentators" who had been blocked off from other online forums like yahoo,msn, hardwarezone (and who knows where) to spill their poisonous posts into BW.  BW should have upgraded to block off those disrupting permanent trolls. Then, there had been less disruptions and you wouldn't encounter those trolls who trail certain members for years only because something rubs their mind...

Bernie is great.  It gives hope to see him surge in this early stage of the contest.  Pete is equally great, with the added advantage that he has experiences Bernie has not had, and that as a minority he will not tolerate any kind of supremacy.

I don't recognize in me any personal call that is ruined.  On the contrary,  as time passes I see less reasons for calls to become ruined and more calls deserving freedom  :)

 

But I understand that the values of the SG society forces many gays to seek refuge in the closet.

This is why a gay US president can be a game changer in a homophobic society, like president Obama forced many racists to keep their mouth shut.

Nope. Definitely not bullshit. First of all, I posted that he's the sort of person that would type "No Asians" in a Grindr profile, not that he actually did it. But maybe he did, and I wouldn't be surprised after reading those articles linked by Dancing Around A Long Pole, which were not written by Republicans. Two of those stories are about gays who aren't supporting Buttigieg for valid reasons, and the other two are about how he got rid of the top black officials in his city when he was the mayor, but now expects black people to ignore all of that and vote for him.

 

You can be proud to have a gay man being taken seriously as a candidate for president of your country, but you need to be honest about who and what he is, as well as his limitations. Those articles and many more bring up very serious flaws with him. You want to ignore those issues because you like him, but that is not how politics ever works, and you know that. He is not in touch with issues that don't impact him directly, as the gay Asian-American activist pointed out, and I stand by my opinion. He only cares about his circle of conservative gayness.

 

Just as you don't take guests at face value, I don't take politicians at face value, so their speeches are useless. Buttjudge can say whatever he wants in an effort to win people's votes, but he has a record from his time in office, thin as that record might be. He also has a history of never participating in gay activism when the community was fighting for marriage equality, access to HIV/AIDS medications, and the legislating of hate crime laws. Too many politicians behave like actors doing nothing more than delivering lines in a TV show and he's no exception.

 

P.S. Only racists like Donald Trump refer to African-Americans as "the Blacks" so you might want to stop doing that yourself, and Barack Obama's elections also enraged the white racists in your country to the point that they voted to follow his tenure with a clear and obvious racist, who is determined to undo all of the progress made between 2008 and 2016.

Nothing but more bullshit.

 

" I posted that he's the sort of person that would type "No Asians" in a Grindr profile, not that he actually did it. But maybe he did,  blah blah blah..."

 

WHAT???  The "sort of person" ???   Maybe you would find that I am also the "No Asians" sort of person,  no matter that I travel half way around the globe...  to meet Asians!!

 

And who is "Dancing Around A Long Pole"?  I could not find them on the Internet,  which today means they may not exist.  If you want to trust their articles, that's up to you.  There are MILLIONS of opinions of all sorts going around, why should this pole dancers be trusted?  Any reasons they may have may be valid for them, and for no one else.

 

There may not be anything wrong in the way Mayor Pete got rid of black officials  (see, you also refer to Blacks as "blacks"),  but his enemies are weaving an endless saga about it.

I know well who Buttigieg is and what he stands for.  I have been following his political career since the beginning.  Surely I know much more than you,  who latches onto unproven sources of conflicts.  I don't see ANY serious flaws in him.  On the contrary,  I see MANY outstanding virtues.  

 

And what does he have to do with "gay Asian-American activists"?   Asian-American gay activism is outside the borders of American democratic processes.  This is an election by Americans, for Americans, independent of foreign influences.   I realize that Buttigieg is the BEST person to occupy the White House,  and,  even if he does not like Asian gays,  which is nothing but a stupid unfounded speculation,  I will vote for him.

 

And you... you can vote for whoever you like. :D

If you took a few minutes to read the article posted by Dancing Around A Long Pole called Why Pete Buttigieg Isn't Carrying The Queer Vote, you would clearly see that the Asian-American activist I mentioned is Gregory Cendana, leader of the Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance. You can choose to stick to your biases all you want, and refuse to acknowledge the problems of your beloved Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg, but people who have been in the trenches know better. Buttigieg embodies the type of exclusionary gayness that is only centered around white men below the age of 50 who can easily pass for straight and have never had any real struggles in their lives. He can hold meetings and speak pretty words all he wants, but he has never experienced discrimination the way Asians, African-Americans, or Hispanics have, and he's never even been discriminated against for being gay because he pretended to be straight until gay marriage finally became legal.

 

Just because he is the first gay candidate to get a lot of attention in a presidential primary race doesn't mean he's qualified or the best the LGBTQ community can offer. Jesse Jackson (1984 + 1988) and Al Sharpton (2004) were unqualified African-American men who fell short, but Barack Obama (2008) who actually had political experience ended up winning the nomination and presidency, because he was a much better option. This year saw Andrew Yang become the first Asian-American candidate to get a lot of attention, but he's not actually qualified, and now he's out of the race. I am sure better and more qualified Asian-Americans will emerge in the future and actually win. Just as I'm sure better gays than Buttigieg will come along in the future and actually win. Elizabeth Warren actually appeared to be the best candidate in the debate on Thursday morning (Wednesday night over there) while Sanders came across as boring and Buttigieg just looked petty and smug.

You've been following Pete Buttigieg's political career since the beginning? Really? Since he ran for state treasurer of Indiana in 2010 at the age of 28 when he was still pretending to be straight? Since he ran for mayor of South Bend one year later while still pretending to be straight? He never came out until near the end of his first term in 2015. So why were you following the career of an obscure and supposedly straight small town politician several states away from you back in 2010 or 2011? Inquiring minds want to know.

 

Also, what do foreign influences have to do with Asian-American gay activism, since Asian-Americans are also Americans? That statement says a whole lot about who you consider to be "Real Americans" as Sarah Palin so infamously put it back in 2008. Maybe you want to "Make American Great Again" in the same way as Donald Trump? I linked to an article explaining why actual gays have a problem with Buttigieg, but you insist on dismissing their concerns and experiences, in favor of your own personal fanboy opinions.

I read the article.  And I find it PATHETIC.   It reflects a gay person whose life is centered in the lamentation of his gayness.  We gays are all GAY, and this should not be the center of our lives like the long pole a dancer turns around.  The US presidential election is about a president for ALL Americans, straight, gay, Caucasian, Latinos, Blacks, Asians... you name it.  The writer of the article, Grossfeld, has an obsession with sexual orientation, and sees the whole world through this obsession.  Like he wrote:

 

"Morning Consult attributed Sanders’s popularity to his “long record of support for gay rights,” though that’s never been at the top of his agenda. "

 

WHY should gay rights be at the top of the agenda of an American president ???  There are MORE IMPORTANT THINGS IN THE WORLD !!  But it is important for us, and it is so for Buttigieg. He said repeatedly that he would have given anything for not being gay.  He was discriminated like we all are,  and he is like us a member of a victimized minority.

 

What you and the article fail to see is that Buttigieg is also a serious role model from the gay perspective.  In spite of his gay issue he did lead a normal life and became successful in academia and later in business, politics.  He had the COURAGE to come out as gay as a public figure, and, imagine that,  even marry a guy while being a mayor.  With his intelligence, education, ability to communicate, etc.  he could have pursued a lucrative career as a lawyer, for example.  Instead he decided to serve his country and had the COURAGE to be deployed to Afghanistan.  He performed honorably, and on return he was re-elected with a 80% majority, in spite of being gay and having married same-sex !!!  Doesn't this speak about his competency? Or you think that to be qualified for president he must have been a regular at Shogun in Singapore?

 

Who cares about how many openly gays choose him?  They are a minority, and any polling of gays must be very questionable.  People like him for what he has to offer as president.

A candidate's activism for minorities should get a minority of attention.  The crucial issues are those that affect THE WHOLE population. Like health care, the redistribution of wealth to the needy, the fight against climate change.  Too many minorities base their vote on support for their minority, and in this way they often vote against their own interests.  Like the case of African Americans voting for Hillary instead of Bernie, and when Hillary was nominated she lost to Trump.  Bernie would not have lost so easily.

 

Buttigieg shares the same ideals as Sanders, including Medicare for All.  But besides idealism he is also pragmatic.  He realizes that Congress will not pass the "healthcare for all" proposal and he proposes an initial "Medicare for those who chose it".  There is NOTHING wrong with his proposal,  similar to the "public option" other candidates support.   As we saw in the last debate yesterday in Nevada,  Sanders treats Buttigieg with a lot of respect,  accepting that they must "debate" each other since the occasion requires it.  I would not be surprised that if any of the two wins, the other will be offered a partnership or an important position in the administration.  I will be satisfied if either of them wins  :)

Yes, I followed Pete since he became a public figure exploring his candidacy.  Before that, nobody and surely including you, had any inkling of his existence.

 

Asian-Americans, Native-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, Jewish Americans, African Americans, Women-Americans,  LGBTQ-Americans,  White-supremacist-Americans, American Veterans, Disabled-Americans...   and the list is nearly infinite.

 

The best vote is the one that leaves aside race, ethnicity, orientations, religiousness, and cares primarily for the important issues awaiting solution in the country,  which are many!

I also like Andrew Yang, and I find that his idea to give out money to every resident is an idea that, maybe premature,  will have to become reality once most of the jobs will be taken up by machines.  I am sorry that he had to leave the race,  but this is how the races are.

 

As the first gay candidate, Buttigieg got a lot of attention, but this would not have persisted if not for a large part of the electorate finding him qualified as well. And he is NOT being offered by the LGBTQ community.  He has offered HIMSELF.  Like Bloomberg.  I again have to laugh at your idea of "better gays".  Are YOU a "better gay"?  Are the gays at Shogun and Keybox "better gays"?  Were the protesters at Stonewall  "better gays"?   Elizabeth Warren appeared to be the best candidate yesterday in Las Vegas?  She was perhaps one of the most emotional, crying over the misfortunes of her family and all the poor victims she has seen.  Same for Biden.  But Buttigieg had the best composure,  calm, controlled but assertively attacking what needed to be attacked. He must have scored some good points. :thumb:
