  1. Then the left should have voted in erin otoole. They did not. Now you get PP. So - there you go. The choice was given for moderate change - it was denied - now you get something a little more right. Not much - he's still just a right of center harper conservative, not a far right nutbar like Max - but definitely more right than you're going to like i suspect.
  2. Nothing happened in concert. And given your constant lying so far i'm not inclined to believe your account of it Again - NOBODY got charged over trump "colluding" with the Russians to influence the election INCLUDING manafort. The fbi found NO evidence of it. The commission didn't. NOBODY did. You try to twist unrelated stuff INTO that but there just isn't anything there. 3 years of dozens of investigators and commissions and god knows what and ZERO charges relating to any collusion over the election. It's a lie. YOU are a lie. You should be DEEPLY ashamed of yourself for being so gullible. There is much you can say about trump but YOU CANNOT SAY HE COLLUDED WITH THE RUSSIANS TO INFLUENCE THE ELECTION. That is a LIE.
  3. I misread it - it looked like you were saying you accepted gays and HAD gay marrage.... but rereading it i can see what you mean is that we have it now. My bad.
  4. There are a bunch but they would generally speaking fall into a broader catagory of 'voting related' lets say so i'll just ignore them. There are powers and rights granted to states .. but i suspect that's not what you're looking for so i wont 'cheat' and include any of those. However there are many that only apply to citizens. wherever the constitution uses the word "citizen" it only applies to actual citizens, born or naturalized. If it says "the people' it means everybody. So - consider the 14th amendment section one: Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. Citizens have the right to live in the country for example - you can't pass a law which removes a citizen's right to do so. You can lock them up but you can't kick them out. That does NOT apply to anyone BUT citizens. However - the NEXT line says that you shall not deprive any PERSON -meaning ANYONE - of life liberty or property without due process of law. You see the difference. Now that 'privileges and immunites' thing shows up a few times and is a little vague and not fully spelled out in the constitution but has been deemed by several judges to basically mean that you have the right to enter and leave any state and to live there, you cannot be taxed differently than residents of that state, you must be granted 'all the benefits of citizenry that normally would be recognized by common use in countries' , ish. Those rights are not granted to non citizens. A non citizen CAN be forbidden to travel within the us or to and from it. They CAN be taxed differently. They DON"T enjoy the 'commonly accepted benefits of citizenship". which would include a variety of rights. There's not a LOT which is 'citizen specific' in teh constitution but there definitely is some,
  5. well not really, And first off it was clear that there was no evidence conspiracy or 'russian collusion' that even could be charged. So lets get that out of the way - the report left no doubt that the 'russian collusion' narrative which ran for almost 4 years was a complete hoax. Didn't happen. But - he claimed that trump during the investigation behaved in a way that could be considered obstruction possibly and may be chargeable, but that he wasn't sure how that worked with a sitting president and that it would have to be a decision for the justice department. Who reviewed the info and said "Yeah - no. It's not obstruction. Mueller also noted that the 'obstruction' in no way hindered his investigation. There's so many legitimate critisizms of trump - it is simply pathetic to watch people hold on to THIS OBVIOUS LIE. There was no 'russian collusion'. Trump had people who had ties to russia - so did the dems. There is zero evidence that trump at any time tried to work with the russians to influence the election inappropriately. And - there's zero evidence of it from their efforts - their efforts didn't particularly support anything trump did.
  6. Well not in 1970 it hand't been - we only got gay marriage in 2005 But i was in school in the 70's as well and for sure there was not only acceptance of gays but a very strong general principle of 'accept everyone' taught that basically suggested that everyone's got differences - find what you have in common and learn about the differences and we'll all be better off. You wouldn't call it 'colorblind' or 'genderblind' or anything - just more like 'ok - so you've got this thing about you that's different than me and that's cool, i'd like to learn how it affects your life but we can both agree that we should order a pizza and watch this movie right?
  7. And he often is. Mulroney was better than the previous trudeau, harper was a billion light years better than paul martin (a used teabag was better than martin) and it's quite possible PP will be better than justin. Our problem isn't that we hope that the other guy is better - our problem is that we shouldn't be picking the worse guys in the first place.
  8. Harper tightened bail laws. Justin relaxed them But sure- lie to yourself if it's easier than facing the truth. It's kind of your thing as a liberal.
  9. Blah blah blah i hate trump blah blah blah. my conclusions are what the fbi arrived at, what the commission arrived at and what every sane person arrived at. There's no collusion, no conspiracy and nothing wrong done by trump. And the FBI ran a highly inappropriate and unprofessional and at times illegal investigation to DESPERATELY hang something on him and couldn't Here's a clue kid - if you can't tell what the russians used the data for - then they probably didn't use it for anything. It's as simple as that. If they did there'd be evidence, somethnig would have happened in concert with something else or they'd have done soemthing different than they'd been doing or something - but nope nothing. Your entire argument is that the information provided MUST have been used illegally or improperly or even at all. And there's no evidence of it, and in fact evidence that they didn't. You just can't give up 4 years of desperately believing that he was guilty of 'collusion' because cnn told you it was true and you wanted to believe it so bad you could taste it. Find something else to hate him for, god knows there's options. But stop lying about this. You're just making trump look sane.
  10. It was noted that it was the muslims organizing it. Are you saying that all muslims are redneck arseholes? You're islamaphobic?
  11. Go ask them if they want to be a seperate nation with no money from canada. Enjoy your swim back. Well a racist bigot would certainly say so.
  12. Nope. Who has a say or ownership or interest in the land and it's use is open for discussion. Creating local gov'ts is open for discussion. But not a single native anywhere actualy wants soverignty. They'd have to come up with their own money, etc. They seem to recognize the cheques just fine Sorry - first nations are canadian and they don't get to be their own nation and they don't WANT to be their own nation. Imagine if they had NO say in the lands around them, got NO benefit cheques or access to any infrastructure or the like. They'd be dead in no time. The courts have been clear. NEITHER side is going away. first nations can't divorce themselves from canada and they'd starve if they did. In the meantime - i see both the pipelines that the provincial gov't allowed are proceeding and just about to finish. What were you saying about first nations being soverign?
  13. I think he's suggesting you're a pregnant female. Congrats by the way!
  14. That does seem to be how it's working out.
  15. Tenderloin? i don't get the reference?
  16. Of course it does. The state is going to be a reflection of people's attitudes. Politics is always downstream from culture. And lefty people don't demonize for 'intolerance' - the people on the left demonize for non-assimilation. There wouldn't be a problem if both sides agreed to disagree but to let each other have their lives. But - that's not enough for the left. They demand you accept their ideology or the culture war is on. Then there can be no peace. When people get fed up and want to see "pushback" politicians will necessarily pick up on that and run with it.
  17. Inclusion is being done in a very exclusionary fashion these days. And that won't lead to inclusion at all.
  18. The feds aren't the problem. The people allowing the feds to get away with what htey do is the problem. Chreitien said outright - You go to the conferences and you promise to keep people happy but you never 'do'.
  19. And he passed laws to reduce that. Including ones like the consecuitve sentance law which the libs have now let the courts erase with narry a whimper. Very new. Not quite unprecedented but pretty close. ( that word gets brutally overused) Historically a criminal has to prove he deserves bail before they let him out. So if he can't give the court reason to believe he'll be safe then he doesn't get it. Now the court has to prove he won't be safe or they must release him. That is VERY much against precedence in such matters. Trudeau passed a specific law specifically to make sure more violent criminals were released on bail. As a direct result, more violent people have been released on bail. And predictably they are committing more violent crimes once they are released. Sorry - can't play the 'well they did it too' game here, this is new and it's dramatic.
  20. You can't bring people together by breaking them into parts.
  21. DeSantis's demonization is a direct result and response to the left's demonization of people in the first place. When you start a culture war, shots get fired from both sides. The left should have heeded your advice in the first place but once they go down the path then the reaction that we see with desantis is inevitable and unfortunately necessary if they want to stop being demonized.
  22. There can be no doubt that white populations will decline in the foreseeable future. Right now canada's native born population is not replacing itself in general, never mind just whites. Without immigration we'd be in decline, and most european countries are in the same boat. And that's directly tied to GDP. Check out the chart below - it's a ratio of fertility rates (children per woman) vs GDP. In order to produce more GDP you need more women in the workplace - and that means fewer kids. The most successful countries by gdp tend to be white. You need at least 2 kids per women just to maintain a population and because not all will survive that actually isn't even enough. Somewhere between 2 and 3 is needed and that's without growth. And you'll notice that all the countries that have birth rates much above 2 are all poorer non white nations. https://ourworldindata.org/fertility-rate (click on interactive charts)
  23. Well the main problem with being an illiterate barbarian horde is the record keeping is frankly atrocious But as a percentage of the population of the world i think they did more damage. The population was something like 1.7 billion people around world war 2 - the population during the mongols was more like 250 million world wide. And there's little doubt they killed millions. And that's really not happening anywhere. Below replacement birth rates are pretty much universal in every "white" country, and many countries are struggling to get their native populations to have more children. I doubt it'll happen - the way things have played out you now need to have two incomes to get ahead in life. You can't afford to be taking one of the earners off the line for a few years at a time very often. People are having one or two kids max and that's it, and even with a good survival rate that's just not going to keep us growing.
  24. https://lfpress.com/news/local-news/another-mass-absence-breaks-out-at-london-school-as-pride-flag-flies Mass absences break out at London schools as Pride flag flies This time, though, apparent backlash at some other schools, as well. More than 400 pupils at one of London’s largest elementary schools – about one-third of the entire headcount – stayed home Wednesday, on a day when the rainbow flag flew across the school district as the area public board saluted International Day against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia. Just three months ago, a similar mass absence broke out at Eagle Heights elementary school as it marked Rainbow Day, a designated day to celebrate diversity and inclusion. That left the Thames Valley District school board looking into the unusually high number of students who did not go to class, an issue the board’s education director, Mark Fisher, later called a “miscommunication.” Unusually high absence levels were also reported at some other elementary schools in the city Wednesday, Sources have suggested many Muslim families at the school, on Oxford Street near the city’s largest mosque, deliberately chose to keep their kids home to avoid Rainbow Day. So there's some evidence of this spreading in Ontario and it soon may be in provinces across canada. This appears to be pushback against the whole identity politics and culture wars mess again. The constant in your face left wing "woke" agenda has left people fed up. And now even simple events like this are getting push back. And then there's also the fact people are pissed in general. With all the division being pushed in Canada by the feds - i fear this gets worse before it gets better.
