He does not level insults... wow, that's some rich stuff there.

Back to the topic.. Trans people have existed for decades/centuries.. and yet are just now being the lead topic when it comes to social justice and such. Why wait until now?

Genocide... a bit of an exaggeration.

I fully support free speech. However, free speech does not guarantee good speech. Trolls should be free to exist. And then in return.. we are free to ignore them. However, our resolve waivers. We take the bait and then get caught in their 10-pt IQ game.

Have no data to back this up but my impression of the whole trans issue is that simply fills a void. The left has to have some group to fight for. Today's era is relatively calm and stable. This is more a function of boredom and lack of causes to fight for than anything else.

hahaha.... still, anybody with an IQ above 10 and ability to read would know that my demeanor is not adamant, abrasive, outspoken, confrontational like Reason10.

I am a major sports fan. College football, pro baskeball, and the NHL are my big 3. My passion stems from the narrative, the story, and the game itself. I find gambling on it demeans it. Should I use my considerable knowledge for possible gain? Maybe but there is that word.. "possible". If I am going to put my money on something, I want something with far greater chance of returning a profit than betting on sports or gambling.

If you are speaking of yourself.. I agree. As for myself, I am not adamant, outspoken, or abrasive.

having been to san Francisco 4 times in the past and will be there in 5 days.. the housing prices in SF are a function of having a relative minority that is willing to pay astronomical prices for rent/mortgage. Also, limited space.. there is water on three sides. When you go inland (north or east).. prices do go down. Not by much but they still go down. The terrain makes building more expensive than it is inland.

My children went to drag queen story hour once . First, the book that was read had zero mention of gender, sex, or such. It was some older book about a kid picking apples and pears. Second, the drag queen never got closer than 4 feet away therefore never touched. finally, what did my kids think of it? Yawnnn....... they were bored to tears and were ready for the next thing at this event. Long term damage... that's funny because they have never brought it up even once afterwards.

I do not oppose all policies that are liberal/progressive but this is one that I am steadfast against. Reparations at any level are simply wasteful. If this was 1880 when the deck was stacked against blacks.. possibly. However, the playing field is mostly level and so they need to sink/swim on their own

casinos do pay taxes as you know. too many to really list off here but the profits are dealt with in the normal fashion depending on ownership structure. That's interesting. We do not have a state lottery here in NV for obvious reasons. However, those stores in CA that are close to the stateline do very, very well when the lottery jackpots reach a high enough level.

I am not pro-coal, anti-coal, pro-green energy, or anything like that. However, this seems very short sighted and mostly wishful thinking. Coal.. like it or not, does not the massive economies of scale associated with wind or solar. Also, it is not as price-volatile as natural gas.

So the privately held casinos do not do their own advertising? The govt does it for them... if so, that is strange. As you know, I live in NV where gambling is ubiquitous. You do not see a lot of advertising by casinos on local TV.. If so, it is mostly to promote an event such as a convention or concert.

Watching the setlists from the Cure. Refreshing my memory on their back catalog in hopes of being able to get the most out of a show that I will be attending this weekend.

So the real question is the aesthetics.. This just shows how bored some people are. Advertising with random pro athlete or advertising without it... both are advertising..

Back to the topic.. the reason that some schools in NV go to 100% free lunch is purely logistics. If you are 75% free lunch.. the accounting gets tricky. It gets convoluted if it changes throughout the year. 100% is simply easier to account and make line item adjustments to.

The pendulum has swung back the other way but for 90% (or so) of human history.. men have had the overwhelming majority of the power. I met my wife through an online dating site. would never have met her otherwise. We lived about 35 miles apart and our social circles would never have met.

Conspiracy theorists love to pose silly, unrealistic questions. It is part of their MO. Their theories are silly, unrealistic, and usually almost impossible to disprove due to lack of raw information.

Reason10 is just another garden variety internet forum troll that thinks that being adamant, passionate, outspoken, abrasive, etc. makes up for his lack of rationality and being biased to no end.

Answer to OP is this... never. Pining after something that has a 0% probability of ever occurring epitomizes idiocy.

What a pointless venture.. folks who want to gamble or bet on sports will find a way.

yes, you are correct. We instead are opting for quick but free headlines/tidbits. Twitter, facebook, instagram, and the various websites are mostly free and let us digest the information whenever and however we want.

Overall, cable news has being dying for a while. Being the number one on a sinking ship.... means that you are still on a sinking ship.

This is why I can't possibly take you seriously. You jump from the topic of pronouns to child genital mutilation. That shows that you do not think through something thoroughly and take the big picture into account. As for drag queens being pedophiles.. there is no raw data to support what you say. Yes, you will send me links to subjective articles that are nothing but opinion. I have already wasted enough of my time with you to know that you have no idea what raw data is.
