  1. Wow, celebrating the elimination of slavery in your country is now pandering to black people. Sure says something about you. The US must be the only developed country in the world that doesn't have any minimum mandated annual vacation and now you cheer when Trump wants to get rid of stats as well. Talk about brainwashed.
  2. But if you think that if one president does it, then it's OK for all them, it's pretty ridiculous to be going on about equal opportunities vs equal outcomes.

  4. If it's illegal, no. That isn't what this topic is about. Do you believe blocking traffic deserves a death sentence?
  5. When you do things like literally buying access to a president, you don't have equal opportunities and obviously will not have equal outcomes.

  7. https://www.cbs8.com/article/news/local/afghan-translator-for-us-military-arrested-by-ice-san-diego-courthouse/509-ac5b0aa6-b6eb-48ee-8362-ed94806769d9 A person would have to be a complete fool to be a local working for US forces in war zones.
  8. Our birth rate isn't high enough to maintain our population. Without immigration we become a nation of geezers. We need to be selective about who we accept and make sure there are opportunities for them so they stay.
  9. Two different things. Equal opportunity yes. When it comes to equal outcomes it depends on what you are talking about.
  10. No, it is assault to deliberately run into someone. So you think it is justified to assault and run over people on picket lines because they are in your way.
  11. Trying to impede someone by standing in front of them is not attacking them. It may be irritating as shit but it isn't assault. There are just a ton of grey areas around this and each case has to be taken individually.
  12. If they are attacking you or you just can't avoid them, I would agree. I was responding to this statement.
  13. Wanting to get home is no excuse for killing someone.
  14. Exactly, you couldn't call it colonialism so you dreamed up Manifest Destiny. The only people we have had to defend ourselves from is you. I guess some things don't change. You and Trump can go and f*ck yourselves.
  15. Once Trump gets rid of all the illegals it will be even lower.
  16. In the first case, the video isn't enough to determine either way but I can understand the motorist being terrified. It would come down to whether the court thought their reaction was justified. The second was clearly wrong and deserves prosecution.
  17. Ah, you invade us and then call us insurgents and terrorists when we resist. The American way. One might think you are just another bunch of imperialist empire builders. In 1812 you attacked us, in 1846 you attacked Mexico. None of your neighbours has ever attacked you.
  18. Good excuse to put down protests of any kind. Someone inconveniencing you isn't an excuse to kill them. Prosecute them if they are breaking the law but you have no right to be a vigilante and execute people. If you do, expect to be charged with a crime yourself. We gave up lynch mobs a long time ago but I guess you guys yearn for the good old days.
