  1. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/feb/6/judge-rules-california-cant-force-christian-baker-/ Let's see how it ends up with the case in Colorado.
  2. Who would've thought this would happen? In California to boot! Finally.......reason seems to be coming back. This must be a precedent! https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/the-stuff-of-tyranny-christian-baker-scores-major-victory It is indeed tyranny! To have let this go on, which saw some folks lose their business over frivolous lawsuits by senseless LGBT activists, is what's so disgusting about this! How many cases involved premeditation and malice - to actually pick out known Christian entrepreneurs to bully? Not only does this kind of frivolity clutters the justice system....but it also disrupts businesses, and lives! How many employees lose their jobs when a small business goes under because of this? It has its own ripple effect! There should be some penalties for LGBT activists who indulge in this kind of shenanigans. If they lose the case, the plaintiff must shoulder all the expenses incurred by the defendant in defending himself - which include his legal expenses (and punitive damages)!
  3. Notice, no fanfare over that. Not even a mention in any mainstream media.
  4. Why shouldn't we take them literally with their platform? Isn't that what it's all about? Selling their platforms? How do we know they all flip flop? Not all candidates win! Are we saying.....it's okay for a candidate to flip flop just because we think they all do? Politics is neck deep in corruption - shall we now say, "it's stupid to expect an honest candidate - so don't make a big deal of dishonesty?" That's how standards are lowered and before you know it, we think nothing of it.
  5. Well.....it's the children that are being used. Maybe, they all love the limelight.
  6. The PC should pick the one who represent the conservative values the most, a true reflection of his/her own values. It shouldn't be Liberal-light. I've yet to know where they stand. Caroline Mulroney isn't for me - she was for the carbon-tax until she flipped- flopped.
  7. Could it be because of........ Obama's lap dog, Trudeau?
  8. Interesting. I never thought to see some of the countries named on that list. And I thought Israel will be one of those at the top. Could it be possible that some of the countries would not have given an accurate number for their armors and weaponry? After all, divulging exactly how many tanks, soldiers, ships and planes you have is vital information.

    Is this really how Fidel Castro looked like - or this photo was "fixed?"

      This article explains why the rumor circulating now (because of the alleged suicide note of Fidelito), cannot be true.

      Justin was already born before the said visit to Cuba.

      No, Justin Trudeau is not Fidel Castro’s son

  10. The title template can't be located.
  11. Frustrating. After I got all my choices listed....there's nowhere else to go but to press "submit." That's when it tells me that I need the title (which I had).....and to post something in the OP (which was not visible the first time). Everything I wrote down were gone, so i had to go back again.....and the same thing happens.
  12. Thanks guys. Will try again.
  13. I'm having a hard time posting it. It keeps saying check the values (title and content)....it has a title, and the choices are given! It keeps taking me out of the poll area, and moving me to the regular topic- creating section.
  14. Harper didn't grovel - unlike Trudeau (and his family)! https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/in-pictures-stephen-harper-in-india/article4958699/ https://globalnews.ca/news/4036016/justin-trudeau-india-visit-business-photo-op/
  15. Trudeau and his family were snubbed at the tarmac on their arrival.....just like the same way Obama was snubbed at the tarmac in Cuba. Junior Ministers were sent to meet Obama and Trudeau.
  16. Performing monkey......

     

     

     

    .......was the first thing that came to mind.

     

     

     

     

  17. They're still bitching....and moaning.....and ranting......about us.

    I suppose what else is there to talk about in an echo chamber?

      Hahaha - if this place is all that bad - I wonder why Omni and Squid are hanging out here instead? :lol:

       

       

    3. Omni

      A little balance perhaps. But also for the entertainment value as things slip downhill.

    4. betsy

      betsy

      What balance are you on about?  You're here all the time!  How many posts have you given to the "other," compared to the numbers of post you give here?  Just count your posts here on status updates alone! :D  How many times have you responded to my status updates?   (not that I'm complaining.....)

       

      How many times have you posted at the "other" today?  I don't see your name in any of its recent posts!   But I see your name here, posted 3 hours ago!

       

      Aren't you a tad confused?  If this place is going downhill - then why are you folks back?  You're not merely observing (as I do when I go take a peek over there - for entertainment value - then I report back here what I'd seen over there)....

      .......you are active here!   You see me posting over there?  Did I ever apply to be a member over there?  :lol:

       

      Furthermore, if you have to come back here for "balance".....

      .....you're admitting you got an echo chamber back there, that's why you have to come here for opposing views!

        Isn't that what we've been saying all along?

       

        That's why you are here.....because the other place is boring!  animated-laughing-smiley-emoticon.gif

  18. EH???? Here's a simpler question. Is it legal to make bombs?
  19. I didn't avoid it! You didn't see it! Read again!
  20. When life has no value - what do you expect? When kids grow up in a society that doesn't value "certain" lives - of course, respect for any life will go down the drain. All you need is something to justify it. We're getting what we've been sowing. There's a consequence to everything. You think things will get any better?
  21. I based my answer to your hypothetical scenario! Hypothetical or not.....my response is sensible: What jihadi in his right mind would want to argue for his right to bear nuclear arms? He won't argue for it. He'll just do it! What? You think ganglords and dealers, will argue for their right to bear nuclear arms? You imagine them taking the matter to court, and fighting for their rights? "I have to protect my territory, your honor. It's my hood! They're packing nukes! I'se just gotta pack too! " You folks are in la-la-land. You imagine that everyone will play by the rules you set! Of course, there should be some limit. But that's not the point, is it? Wishing there should be some limit to anything - that includes weaponry - will not prevent the fact that there will be those who will invent something to surpass, even if it's just for bragging rights! Just look at your television! Or your computer, or the simple phone, as an example! Now....they're "smart" enough to look back at you, invading the privacy of your own home! Why did we get this far with technology? What can you do with kids (and kid-like adults) and their cell phone? None! Is there a limit to viruses and firewalls? Seems every year, there's always a new virus around..... and an anti-virus to be downloaded! Is there a limit? Just because people say that there should be a limit to this kind of weaponry.... will not mean that there will be! "Feel-good" words won't change reality. You're daydreaming. Your dream is dangerous - because all you'll accomplish is, tie up the hands of those who can, and who will defend you! How do you think from simple muskets and pistols, things had escalated from gatling guns to assault rifles....and who knows what other "amazing" guns are being invented at this moment? It's like the way with computers, tv, cellphones, etc..... You really think there'll be a limit to something that can change the tide of war? Dream on.
  22. I never heard of any American jihadi that's lobbying for the right to bear nuclear arms - so, you lost me there. Furthermore, if an American jihadi - though the left loves to use the term "home-grown" - although the jihadi most likely got roots from places that do jihad for fun - lobbies for the right to bear nuclear arms - shouldn't that raise the red flag, sound the alarm with flashing lights and bells, and whistles? Chances are - he's got mental health problems! Tell me, Lon. What jihadi in his right mind would want to argue for his right to bear nuclear arms?
  23. Why don't you take that several steps farther - let's go back to bows and arrows? Swords? Sling shots? Clubs? So, you send our soldiers with those weapons while their enemies had all the modern ones? Why don't we save lives - let's just submit to anyone who challenge us? Accept any one who invades us and accept it as it is.
  24. Well.....he's getting them to do what he wants. Picking up a fight (for a reason) is one thing........ threatening to nuke or annihilate a nation just because, is definitely another. You can't differentiate that, too?
  25. Who's talking simply about Trudeau? Anyway.....be specific which Trudeau you mean. His dad had helped Khadr Sr, didn't he? Trudeau's brother Alexandre, lobbied for terror suspect Harkat to be let to stay in Canada, didn't he? http://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-news/trudeaus-brother-asks-government-to-keep-harkat-in-canada https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohamed_Harkat Isn't it wonderful to have the Trudeaus for friends? Who knows who among the thousands of immigrants/refugees will slip through the cracks! Maybe, we'll know a decade from now. I'm saying, vetting and screening - like any other processes such as screening for mental health - aren't perfect! Good grief! Why is that so hard to understand?
