You talk about black neighborhoods and white ones, but the problem is poverty stricken neighborhoods, not the color of the residents. Poor white people feel defeated too, when it goes on beyond their ability to keep hoping for something better. Feeling that success is available to those who...

Some of us are savvy enough to know that no matter what we think we might do, there's no way to know for sure until/unless it happens. Some people [even big strong male people] who were familiar with firearms and had plenty of training found themselves unable to shoot a person when push came to...

He needs what he asked for: a clarification. There are two separate statements in the quote referred to, and one could disagree with just one of them. You need a reading comprehension upgrade, and some humility - the snotty question is out of line, especially when it's your lack of...

Geller was deliberately provoking an antagonistic response, and that changes the perception considerably. I was just reading the fine print on an insurance policy, and it specifically mentions 'provocation' as a disqualifier to any injury claim for resulting from assault. Because when you ask...

It WAS a fun thread, but creativity can't be produced on demand. [Except for Robin Williams - he could do it.] The few people who can inspire it are an asset to any site. IMO.

Glad you found it, because I read the responses [how to attach photos] and didn't understand a word of them, lol. I do it from a laptop, not a cellphone app, so it makes a difference.

Perhaps you could explain how preventing schoolkids from boarding their buses to go home, and detaining them in an area where trouble is anticipated is "protecting life and property" - but I doubt it.

I know that tourist draws cause the prices to triple, but I'd never considered the problem of needing a room in the wrong place at the wrong time, like Augusta during the Masters. Somehow, I don't think that stressing your non-tourist [event] related need would cut any ice with a business that...

Some still think CNN doesn't have an agenda. Laughable. That's what you said about CNN, but now you use them to support your point? Either they're trustworthy, or they're not, you can't claim one thing one day and the opposite the next.

Proof of another article cited that you either didn't read, or misunderstood. Unless you think the teachers, parents, and students on the spot are all lying?

I'd say you're missing something: none of us drivers enjoy the level of personal protective gear [military grade] that LEOs currently deploy. To suggest those officers should shoot people [especially the non adults] for throwing bricks is overkill, quite literally. Did you read the article I...

Abbot is pretty special, alright: http://blog.chron.com/texaspolitics/2014/07/abbott-equates-supporting-release-of-chemical-data-with-aiding-terrorists/

Of the fact that someone can call a news outlet a "Hate Network", with examples of how biased and unreliable their reporting is, then cite an article from that same news outlet to rebut a point the opposition didn't even suggest, lol.:rolleyes:

Exactly what does "that" refer to? I did a quick look at the articles cited, and I have to say that Breitbart complaining about the "left wing media whipping up hatred" is just too funny for words. "All that matters is that the oppressive, controlling Welfare State [sic] that breeds...

I flew from Detroit Metro yesterday, and had to pitch an unopened bottle of Coke [you can carry it onboard if you bought it from the places inside the secure area, but I didn't know that.] The worst thing about the TSA rules is how they keep changing them, sigh. I wonder if really poor people...

Umm, that's what turtles, DO, lol. Actually, you're probably more at risk, according to this photo from a golf course in Florida, lol

The soap in the photo [linked] looks exactly like what I recently got from eBeeHoney. The ingredients are listed on each bar, [Lavender Oatmeal]: saponified vegetable oils [olive, rice bran, coconut, organic palm & shea butter], goat milk, natural essential oil, [Moot says this is good oil...

I don't get news/info from TV, and the more I hear & read about it, the less I understand how anyone who does can consider themselves informed. Whether it's Fox or MSNBC. I do know that "news" programming is much more cost effective for the purveyors, [which explains why there's so much of it]...

Take him up on the music, he has some great stuff you probably haven't heard before. [And I keep getting that classic "Don't Do Your Deep Frying In The Nude" stuck in my head, lol] :)

I got a whole season of Rumpole At The Bailey! [It's a BBC series, hard to find unless ordering online]. And a TV/DVD player so I can watch it, too, lol. Great stuff! What I'd like to see is driver oriented tech stuff, like dashcams, back up cams, - tools we can use to do a better job, maybe...
