That's a fascinating fantasy you're living in there.  
  
I got a job with the government? Fascinating. Why don't you tell me about this job I'm unaware of?  
  
Was I a secret agent man? Cause that sounds kind of cool!  
  
My children are being tortured and killed? Maybe. But they're not really acting like they have a problem. Mostly just raising their own grandchildren.  
  
No sir. You ARE a leftist. You believe your insane ranting informs the world around you, prescribes it. That's what a leftist is, regardless of whether they call themselves Nazi, Fascist, Marxist, Democrat, Republican, Conservative, Liberal. It doesn't matter.  
  
Simply as a matter of chance modern conservatives tend to do that less than modern liberals and tend to relegate that sort of thinking into explicitly religious matters while using right thinking more often in day to day matters.  
  
You don't have any competing definition for Leftist to argue over. You don't have any epistemological bifurcation between left and right.  
  
Oh, I'm completely convinced you're not a leftist in your own mind. But, short of some actual differentiation between how you think and how leftists think, I really don't see how you can possibly argue you're not one. What's the difference? Honestly? It's just a label you apply to people you dislike, disrespect or otherwise want to disparage. It doesn't actually mean anything real to you. it's just a noise you make when you get upset, not a meaningful observation of any actual thing.  
  
Also, there's this bit of projecting characteristics, often quite specific ones onto other people. That's leftist thinking. The declaration of "bad thing", in your hilarious example, shaming me for having a dog, and expecting me to apologize or defend it by buying into your bizarre and moronic framing. Berate me for having a home and expecting me to aplogize or defend it by buying into your framing. Complaining about being treated as a "subhuman" because I don't kowtow to your insipid, puerile complaints. That's leftism.  
  
You've been treated vastly better than you deserve, at least by me. You're a lunatic. A leftist. And you've got no respect among people who asses reality on it's own terms.

Nope. I have no problem believing you worked at AMC. Seems perfectly reasonable.  
  
Nope. Any serious researcher who isn't being paid to produce disinformation knows the mob was involved in JFK's assassination. Kenosha was a union town. The mob was deep in the unions, so, obviously, Kenosha was a mob town.  
  
Starting to get a little off when we suppose that the Kenosha based mob had something to do with it, but, while I can totally buy that someone tried to kill you in 75, Bruno's brother died WAY before 75, assuming you're talking about Bruno from Kenosha who set up the Dallas trip for Kennedy.  
  
There's a different Bruno who operated out of New York starting in the 90's, primarily in the weed trade from Canada, but he wasn't even born until 73.  
  
But, he worked for the Gambinos while Kenosha was under the Balistrieri family from Milwaukee, and Don Bruno (Angelo) ran the Bruno-Scarfo family out of Philadelphia and his brother Vito reportedly stayed in Philadelphia as well.  
  
Given your extremely tenuous grip on reality and your obvious general confusion regarding the world around you, my sense is that you're deeply confused about things you probably used to know. Or, and this is seeming increasingly likely. You're confabulating a story of your heroics and inside knowledge.  
  
My guess is you read about Bruno being connected to Kennedy and blurred every other fact to fit your narrative.  
  
The brother of a local mobster says you deserved to get hit, you think Jerry Bruno's in the mob, know he was somehow involved in setting up Kennedy, that he's from Kenosha and sort of squish it all together. It's been nine years since Jerry Bruno from New York was sentenced for murder which is way more than enough time even for a healthy mind to blend those disparate facts together.  
  
It kind of makes a strange sort of sense that you'd remark that Bruno's brother said you deserved it, since Bruno was known for avoiding violence and it would be pretty meaningful if he put a hit on you. Don Bruno was the boss in Philadelphia in the seventies, and I guess you didn't actually specify you were hit in Kenosha, but that's Angelo Bruno, not Jerry Bruno. Don Angelo's brother was alive in the seventies, not Jerry Bruno's brother.  
  
Now, some pretty damn suspect coincidences exist for the contention that Jerry Bruno was actively involved as he later worked for Johnson and then went to run RFK's travel arrangements until he was taken out. If there's ever been a guy dirtier than Johnson, I can't readily name him. I guess Roosevelt, maybe, but in a slightly different way. But, people didn't necessarily work for Johnson on an entirely voluntary basis.  
  
Regardless. Jerry Bruno isn't looking like mob and his brother was long dead by the seventies.
