I believe you.

Sorry, I don't recall. Different context. Is there anything wrong with being a competitor, and an ally? No.

That's why I don't like the fact that one hereditary chief can block an entire pipeline. How hard is it for the Russians, Saudis, or Americans to pay off 1 guy?

Ya, Russia is busy to push up the oil and ng price. and they must find a way to kill the shale gas which is USA's new weapon. Sorry, I should said Oil companies in US. My bad.

America has trade deficits with most of the countries they deal with. It's popular to diss Trump and call him a bully but his job is to promote the US economy and protect their workers. Trudeau pretends to care about the workers at SNC, but now there's talk about SNC employees making a lot of illegal donations to the Liberal party. So maybe he was just covering his own ass? He certainly doesn't give a crap about 200,000 jobs in Alberta.

I have no problem with them having their sad delusions. The problem I have with these ridiculous beliefs is when they try to force their baseless beliefs upon others.

The WORD of god is full of inconvenient truths of what their vile god is. Faith forces the more stupid to argue against the WORD of god. God always has good reasons to do murder to those too blind to see that murder is not mercy. Curing in stead of killing like Jesus did shows should be done proves he is not Yahweh but the blind and stupid theists do not care about that inconvenient truth. Fell sorry for them as they know not what they do. Regards DL

Look everyone it's a John Otis sockpuppet. Calling for the destruction of the US and calling everyone ma'am under a different handle isn't fooling anyone "Mike Utinne".

What is the cost do deal with all abandoned wells and rigs in Alberta? What is the cost of all our salmon, the tourist industry, our water, air and quality of life? Yes, I pulled the figure right outta my ass but it is still more accurate than what comes out of yours.

Because if we give out the right to shut them up the mob will turn on me next. There are all kinds of people out there who want to shut down any and all voices which oppose, even marginally, progressive social and economic views. Given these are EXACTLY the people demanding we shut down the far right I'm not okay with that. I don't get to draw a line and then have the mob from the Left say that's okay and they'll never demand further censorship. Mobs don't work that way. As soon as someone ten points on the right is silenced they'll be baying for the silencing of someone 9 points to the right, then 8, then 7. Eventually they'll be baying for the likes of you to be silenced too, you know. You're not extreme enough for them. There are very few of those. So enjoy yourself. I don't believe I've ever worried much over Sharia being implemented in the near future. My worry is over cultural destruction by baying religious extremists - which includes the far Left, by the way. No, the amazing parallel is that the Left completely ignores Islamist threats while freaking out about the alt-right, despite the latter being nearly invisible except on a few internet forums. Even the security report some of you were taking such thrill from about the supposed danger of the alt-right in Canada actually said they really weren't any danger. I'm pretty sure I have been calling for the Russian/Chinese internet, hacking and troll threat to be addressed for years. I'm the guy who says Russia is an enemy and a threat to us, remember? But that differs from some idiots making racist noises on the internet. They're not all Russian trolls. That example was speaking to the collective Left, not you in particular, but you clearly DO want to ban ideas you don't agree with - not ALL such voices - but some particular voices you don't agree with. You will allow some voices of opposition, as long as they are not too 'dangerous' in your mind. Mighty white of you. They mostly are. I sometimes post in just about the most right wing Canadian group on Reddit. Such stupid ideas occasionally are posted, and for the most part, are voted down or mocked. They rarely gain traction, even in that group. I have never seen an antisemitic topic there, or racist language. Lots of anti-immigration talk, mind you, but it's hardly a place a 'white supremacist' would be able to comfortably express their views. and that is the most far right Canadian group on reddit. The other Canadian groups all veer strongly to the Left (which is why I sometimes post in that one). Your belief, then, that there is masses and masses of horrifyingly racist and white supremacist stuff out there you need to somehow put a stop to is a product of your own feverish, terrified imagination. Maybe if the Left didn't have such a strident tendency to describe what soft-right types say as hate speech too, we might take the time and bother to say something. Which I do. But I'm not going to join you in your witch hunt for words that I don't like. I don't like a lot of words. And you know what, some of the words I don't like, you're perfectly content with. You think I should be calling out ALL ideas on every subject that I don't like? That sounds like a lot of work. If I see something being said that's stupid I generally do reply. But like Charles, I don't read everything here, not even on the topics I post to. What you fail to understand is that something which outrages you due to your ideological views does not similarly outrage me. I might disagree with it, but it isn't something that has me running around in circles with my arms in the air screaming in horror. I'm not into policing people's words just because they offend others. And my outrage doesn't have the same hair trigger as yours. Nazis don't outrage me. They don't even bother me much. I know there are very few of them. I'll happily mock and ridicule them if I'm allowed, but that's frowned on here, plus they're boring, so I generally put them in the ignore file. Jesus God, but you're a sulky man these days. I say I'm here for entertainment and to discuss issues that concern me and you get sullen and say my ideas are all horseshit then and nobody should pay attention. WTF? Are you here for some other reason? Are you on a mission to save the world, like the other social justice warriors you seen to be morphing into? As I said in the last post, you need to grow the hell up and stop going bug-eyed crazy over little shit.

Interesting. The religious always claim biblical quotes which show their imaginary god in a bad light are "out of context". Then she claims that by quoting her bible I am going ballistic. I had a similar reaction on another forum where Human and civil rights were being discussed and the religious were furious and complained en masse to the mod a complaint he ignored) because I quoted their bible. Poor Betsy is displaying the same silliness.

Even the ridiculous bible says it is not a human until it is born.

Uhm, no, I didn't. You replied to dialamah who was saying that as a shall we be kind and call it 'paraphrasing' of what she believed Goddess had said, but didn't. Yes. You're wrong. There are a very few wack jobs who believe there is a conspiracy to that end. I'd hardly consider that something to worry yourself over. A tabloid made an error? Shocking. So? This is the first time that's ever happened? Why the F*ck would I even discuss a wack job like Alex Jones, much less feverishly watch all the dreck he pumps out in order to denounce it as the crazy people of the Left do? He's a clown to be laughed at. He is not even remotely on my radar except when the crazy people of the Left start howling about some stupid thing he's said. Why you get so freaked out about stuff like this is beyond me. It seems that people on your side of the fence have lost all sense of proportion and priority and spend all their time searching for nonentities saying something outrageous so you can be outraged by it. And if you don't find it then you simply invent it. "Look, that person said that a woman with a penis isn't a woman! Aaagghh! The horror! The horror! Attack! Drive them from our midst!" "Wait! That person disrespected the Koran! Agggghhh!" "Worse! This one wrote an academic paper which vaguely aligns with thoughts I don't like! Fire them! Fire them! Banish them from out society!!" Nor is it my job to 'police' anyone. Unlike yourself I do not believe it's my noble duty to protect people from being offended by the bleating of asses. I'm here for entertainment purposes and to discuss issues which concern me. Sorry, but I'm not going to ignore those issues and side with the people who demonize me over them in order to attack stuff of little importance to me or anyone rational. You people who freak out because someone says something you don't like need to grow the hell up.

And how many people died in Lac Megantic again? Fifty? More than have ever died because of nuclear accidents.

Who knew, rabid alt-left, anti Semite Farrakahan is 'far right' (banned by FB) . He is a rabid hate preacher loved by Obama and the Clintons with whom he sure has a long history of meetings. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/obamas-radical-left-ties-broad-and-deep/

By removing the cross from the National Assembly, do you think that most French Quebecers (les Québécois) feel any less/more civilised? Do minorities in Quebec feel any less or more secure? ===== IMHO, there is a tremendous misunderstanding of our history.

The FBI doesn't "exonerate" anyone. Judges exonerate. Trump used the wrong word, the same way that laymen misuse legal terminology all the time. The fact that he mistakenly used the word exonerate is not enough for you to hang your hat on. The fact is that the FBI, after two years, 2,800 subpoenas, interviewing 500 witnesses and executing 500 search warrants, didn't find enough evidence to bring criminal charges. They never produced any to this day. Rosenstein and Barr jointly reached that conclusion "without considering constitutional questions regarding bringing criminal charges against a sitting president". The Dems, and especially Schiff, were constantly saying that the evidence was already in. The Dems are famous for ignoring subpoenas, completely redacting documents that they hand in, etc. It's their turn to wait. ----spoiler alert---- There is no Santa There, now you can get some sleep Christmas Eve.
