I totally get it. DonkeyButt is LIBNORANT. He has a lack of knowledge aboot politics, economics, history, and reality in general. I was being sarcastic aboot the SS#.
Well, I don't hate muslims. Muslims have & follow an ideology laden with hate. The ultimate aspect to that ideology is that if you don't join them in the belief of their ideology, you are a lesser human & they have the right (often worded as the obligation) to kill you. Ergo, I'm not at all ok with welcoming people into my camp who have that ideology as the fulcrum of their actions.
SUICIDE BOMB BLASTS ROCK SAUDI ARABIA... https://www.yahoo.com/news/multiple-suicide-blasts-hit-saudi-arabia-191235559.html
Because any challenges are immediately met with the same old tired accusations of racism and xenophobia. What's lacking is a strong, coherent counterpoint from someone who is experienced, intelligent, articulate and well-respected. While there are several candidates who could carry this torch, apparently none of them have the balls to break away from a political system which is currently hamstrung by current PC fashionne due to the fact that conservative centrists have been pushing almost equally as hard for quicker and easier emigration from all countries. Both the Repubs and Dems want looser laws to allow a steadier stream of permanent visitors to increase voter blocks. Trump's basically the only guy to say in plain language exactly wtf is going on and how to fix it, without all the flowery political rhetoric... Albeit with his uncontrollable verbal diarrhea personal kind of way. The real truth would be refreshing to hear, from either of these psychos. Just once. Besides, Stank...how strong is your faith in the academic community beyond your own that the intelligentsia would not simply spin unfavorable results? Its not as if it hasn't been done before. Academia is really not much different than the military in that respect. The indoctrinational brainwashing starts immediately and can last a lifetime. There needs to be a spark, but nobody is willing to nut up on this subject
Right now, the political discourse in this country is absolutely pitiful. Stank, you want "academia" to provide answers?? You don't even know what academics is, based on your postings on this site. Kidde, I would suggest that if you wait for a leader to emerge (which we all are), that you will be sorely disappointed (as we will all be). Better we try to be leaders in our own communities than wait for a Hilary or a Trump to "solve" problems. But I do agree, reluctantly however, that Trump is the only one calling the shots as the "average joe" sees them, and I do wish he would shut his yap and just do the job, get it done. In my experience, PC is the single most damaging political philosophy of our times. It is meant to silence the non-liberal opposition. TO beat a dead horse (nazism), pre WW2 Germany, it was very PC to hate jews or be subjugated yourself to unspeakable horrors as well. That is where PC can take us, much to the absolute glee of the academics. As the "secrecy" of the voting ballot no longer exists here in the USA, I would caution you all about voting. Stalin said "The winner of the elections is the person who counts the votes". He had a 99% approval rating; he killed off the remaining 1%. Annually.
Can we at least keep the ones with all the groovy mosaic tile and glass work? Turn them into temples of Tryptamine worship?
The proportion of Syrian refugees admitted this year who are Christians – 0.38 percent – is much smaller than the roughly 10 percent of pre-war Syrians who were Christian. Refugee advocacy groups say this anomaly is at least partly the result of the fact Christians among the fleeing Syrians are loathe to enter U.N. camps in surrounding countries for fear of their safety – something the U.N. refugee agency itself concedes is happening. Because the U.N. refers applicants at the beginning of the process of seeking refugee status in the U.S., this may mean fewer Christians are referred in the first place. Christians, Yazidis and Shi’a have been specifically targeted by the Sunni jihadists of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS/ISIL), in what the U.S. government has determined is a campaign of genocide. That ^^ is absolute insanity. Anything the govt touches is a farce. Y'know, there's a lot of people who say that Obama hates America. I gotta say...I really wonder after reading this: "With the more than doubling of the number of admissions between May and June, the administration now looks, after a sluggish start, to be on track to meet President Obama’s target of 10,000 Syrian refugee admissions during fiscal year 2016."
Hahaha I hear that man, I don't really want to vandalize either...yet anyway. I would, however, like to dose and peep some mosaic. Ya know, before all this sh!t got crazy..in the process of settling my own beliefs, I always used to chuckle to myself about the fact that Islam is like the wrong choice the third time over. The Jews were the first monotheistic/patriarchal group with a book(unless there's something I don't know aboot Sumeria/Mesopoptamia..at least they were still polytheists right?)...then the Christians. And at least it was like a new twist. And then 500 years late to the party, these Muslim khunts wanna copy the other khunts and then vehemently defend their khunt system. I mean, come on.
I should give up trying to have a conversation about this because its clearly pointless. Call me all the names you want. I am far from liberal... see pasts posts about competition and people working for and earning what they have. You call me names because that's all you've got... anger and a "they took our jobs" mentality. Not that it means a f*ck of a lot, but I have degrees in economics and american history, grad degree in business. Then again, you think "academics" (ie people that actually study an issue) are frauds... its a can't win position for all who oppose you. Someone is ignorant because they don't agree with you, but if they are educated, then they are academic pinko liberals... Its easy for people to generalize that all "fill in the blank" are bad... but it ignores the fact that there are good people in the world, everywhere. The vast majority of those killed by muslims are muslims. It has to do with religious sects, geographic allegiances, socio economic issues and a ton of complex factors. The reason that some conclude you might be racist or xenophobic is because you cast a group of people into one pot and assume one set of facts, beliefs and actions apply to all of them. I personally think its sad and ironic. The terrorists see all Americans as the same, regardless of our differences. Their mentality is not unlike Barry's. ... I'm done, for a while, with this conversation. I go overseas for a while, will hang out with a bunch of people from South of the border and be glad that they don't treat me like you would treat them..
Call you names is all I have? You stated you have no idea how we fund the immigrants and refugees. I clearly laid out how it's funded with facts, and destroy your position on the current immigration crisis, and now you're running away like a little baby cuz I called you ignorant. Bwhahaha! Good! Go overseas and stay there. Split Kook!
Seriously. Everytime Archy posts. [video=youtube;thbICk05yPk]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thbICk05yPk[/video] you are tailor made by the all the things you despise to be the perfect opponent of everything you think you are rallying against. They made you perfectly easy for them to beat. A perfect cartoonish villain. Do you realize that every time you gripe about something you eventually bring up Hitler. Like every time.
Hitler turned into a red powder or cream that is used to make your cheeks pinker. That is what you just said. who could possibly take you seriously?
That's right... name calling is all you have. And where exactly did you point out how we fund immigration? I re-read your post... can't find it anywhere. As far as how the US funds refugees, here you go.. we fund refugees with tax dollars. However, immigrants get jobs and pay taxes... any legitimate economist would tell you that immigration is essential to our economy... an overall positive, not negative. But again, its pointless to argue with you because nothing is going to change your mind. If I give you facts or studies, you just say they are "liberal academics" and it means nothing. I'm not sure how or why you ended up being as bitter as you are, but I am sorry life has handed you such misfortune that you think barring immigrants and killing muslims is going to fix your problems... maybe its time you looked in the mirror to make you life better, rather than blaming others. You could go back to school, take some math classes, learn to be an engineer or perhaps an accountant. Then you could get a job and make a living so that you don't feel so disadvantaged... or, you can continue posting rants on the internet about how Obama, the "Libtards", muslims, etc., etc. are ruining our Country. Or, better yet... run for office and see if you can get elected. Then you can change it from the inside... good luck.
