California regulates cow farts
WestCoastRunner replied to betsy's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Here is one 'special interest' group: The US meat industry’s wildly successful, 40-year crusade to keep its hold on the American diet -
Proof that Santa is black:

Not sure if you live in BC but sounds like you don't. I take seriously the responsibility for leaving this province to my grandchildren and future generations to a healthy, sustainable environment with clean water, clean air, our wildlife and our natural environment. These pipelines will never be built in BC.

Bono as Woman Of The Year?
WestCoastRunner replied to WestCoastRunner's topic in Sex and Gender Issues
Are you sure you are addressing this OP or just your overall hatred of feminists? -
Is it productive to ban literature?
WestCoastRunner replied to drummindiver's topic in Moral & Ethical Issues
I'm still trying to figure out what leftists have to do with this? I think everyone here is against banning of books. -
This is my point. Argus gets to decide that views that are against his are preposterous and idiotic.
-
That's it exactly. Argus attacks posters that disagree with him and often attaches negative adjectives to his replies while attacking same posters. He is certainly not the only one. I have matured in my replies and have exercised discipline in my responses but clearly, there are insulting remarks posted to thoughts that disagree with the author. I don't understand why posters have to reduce themselves to attacking posters instead of the argument.

Native Ceremony takes place at a public school
WestCoastRunner replied to Boges's topic in Moral & Ethical Issues
Do you understand the meaning of indoctrination? Indoctrination, or thought reform, is the process of forcibly inculcating ideas, attitudes, cognitive strategies or a professional methodology (see doctrine) by coercion.[1] Conspiring institutions such as police and mental health institutions have been widely used as a modus operandi of indoctrinators. -
The Canadian Courts FAIL again
WestCoastRunner replied to Argus's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
You have not provided any stats comparing Canadian criminal trial stats to any other country without any underlying information. I have provided reasons for the lower rate (U.S. Plea bargaining.) Can you address that? -
The Canadian Courts FAIL again
WestCoastRunner replied to Argus's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
I would not like our justice system to handles like the U.S. just for expedience purposes. Consider the following: in 1980, 19% of all federal defendants went to trial in 2000, the number decreased to less than 6% in 2010 and where it remains, it is less than 3% Prosecutors bully defendants into coerced plea bargains (low income defendants are at a huge disadvantage, one of the reasons for a high population of minorities in the prison system) I wonder what the stats are on plea bargains in Canada? -

WestCoastRunner replied to Boges's topic in Moral & Ethical Issues
Advocating? Oh come on. It's a sharing of cultural practices. Nothing more, nothing less. Stop making it so sinister. -

Do your children live in a community with a large number of First Nation children? -
Native Ceremony takes place at a public school
WestCoastRunner replied to Boges's topic in Moral & Ethical Issues
I just don't understand the angst about this. If it were my children I would be thrilled that they are exposed to as many cultures as the school board will allow, especially given the demographics of the population. Knowledge is power. Or has everyone forgotten that? -

Tell me which public school has a high population of satanists. -

If the community had a high presence of Christians then It wouldn't bother me. -
Urban vs. Rural Culture and the US Election
WestCoastRunner replied to Michael Hardner's topic in Arts and Culture
Urban dwellers are not unaware of food productivity I am now an urban dweller but I haven't forgotten my roots and I would expect that many urban dwellers are descendants of farmers and don't forget where they came from. -

Why would you say I have contempt! I come from a family of farmers. Have raised my children in the country. -
Immigration of religious fanatics
WestCoastRunner replied to Argus's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
You have reduced Islam to a hatred of Jews. I have no clue how to respond to this. -
Urban vs. Rural Culture and the US Election
WestCoastRunner replied to Michael Hardner's topic in Arts and Culture
Right. So Trump should have been elected because of food supplies to the grocery store. Even though his environmental policies will affect food production. I love your logic. -

What's your point? -

WestCoastRunner replied to Argus's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Yes let's be very afraid of those Muslims who are having sex with our white Canadians, having babies with our white Canadians and wait..... marrying them too! Pretty soon our white population will be so diluted that the light browns will take over. -

Even though more people live in the cities? Doesn't make sense to me.
