    • RE: Is this the glue to mend the US? How about Europe?

      @JohnAllenson:

      The USA has never had an official language.  In practice, the government uses English.

      Knowing the history of other countries that have tried to impose a majority language on INDIGENOUS populations (Not immigrant populations but populations that predate the formation of the USA) trigger separatist movements and massive resentment.

      Some examples:  Kurdish in Turkey, Catalan in Spain, Welsh in the UK, Arabic in Israel, Tamazight in Algeria, Tamil in Sri Lanka, Breton in France, Swedish in Finland.

      New Mexico (surprise, surprise, surprise) used to be a part of Mexico like the majority of the Southwestern states.  The people who were living there when the USA took over have descendents who still speak Spanish.  There's also French speakers in Maine and Louisiana in the same situation.  Hawai'ian WAS banned in Hawai'i and there's still a lot of resentment.

      Many of the people you mention don't really give a rats ass about the language part, as they do about other things.

      Hawai'ins aren't pissed so much about language, but the fact that they were taken over by a coup.

      The Kurds had their own country until the UK and France chopped it up and gave it away, despite being our allies.    The "host" countries have treated them like shit ever since.

      People from Wales are 2 halves.  The majority of them speak English natively and the small "half" speak Welsh.    The funny thing is, Welsh has to use a lot of English words because the the language doesn't have them.    The UK subsidizes "native" languages (back in 2010) to the tune of £27 billion a year each.  I'm gonna assume this figure has risen like everything else.

      The US bought the southwest states to cover Mexico's debts.

    • RE: Lengthy report on how FACEBOOK is just like a for-profit NSA

      Obama campaigned to reverse the GWB era crap, but massively expanded.

      Snowden outed him and that's why Snowden is a "criminal".

      Remember, Obama also promised to protect whistle-blowers.  I guess he forgot to say "except those that out me as a liar".

    • RE: Do dead people feel any pain?

      Death-row is a specific part of the prison that they are sent to when their execution date nears.

      TL,DR

      Facebook has been working with the NSA throughout Obama, as have many companies.  Remember, Obama shielded companies from lawsuits for violating privacy laws.

      Ok, you are using "death-row" as sentenced to death.    I'm using it to mean the actual death-row.

      I think Florida has the most women sentenced to death, but they rarely execute women.

      Not all states with the death penalty are as eager to kill as Texas.

    • RE: Women who like to watch gay porn

      We have quite a few hetero women here who like gay porn.

      As said above, a lot of gay smut is written by women.  I would even say MOST.

    • RE: "Yes" votes win for Australia's postal survey on gay marriage (61.6% Y, 38.4% N)

      It looks like it will become law, but with a lot of exemptions for bigots.

      One of the biggest arguments I saw for people being against it is  "free speech".    They don't want gays to join the list of other groups who are protected from hate speech under Australian law.

    • Zimbabwe having a military coup??????

      The military has taken over the media in Zimbabwe.

      Of course, the military is denying that it's a coup.

    • RE: Teacher suspended for accidentally calling a trans boy 'a girl' in class.

      If he wants to express his religious views to students, under UK law, he could do that at a religious school.

    • RE: Rachel Madcow is an idiot

      It's difficult to blame Carter, since it was a legal contract, that he wasn't part of.

      Nixon is responsible for the culture of sending our jobs to China.    Well, he and Reagan.    Nixon opened the door and Reagan paid companies to move their factories out of the US.    Until Reagan,  businesses were punished for taking their factories out of the US.

    • RE: UCLA Players Depart China – After Trump Asked for Xi's Help

      I ALWAYS hate when someone goes to another country, commits a crime and everyone from their home country gets butt hurt.

      Louise "baby killer" Woodward was a spoiled brat English bitch who went to the US to become a nanny for the ubber wealthy.  This was about 20 years ago.  Americans saw her as guilty, but Brits saw her as the victim of the barbaric, uncultured American legal system.

      Anyway, the home country should make sure that the legal system and human rights are followed; nothing more.

      If you go to another country and commit a crime, then you should have to face the music.

      I also noticed that it's a very gendered thing.  Men rarely get the sympathy that women get.

    • RE: Women in civilian jobs…

      This is a huge problem all over.

      British laws make it so it's best to never, ever hire a woman under 55.    Even women bosses don't like hiring breeding age women.

      Feminist have fought and won to extend maternity leave and benefits for women, but have ignored the very real problems those same things are causing women in general.

    • RE: Women in the military..

      Lesbians only became a thing with Bill Clinton's Don't Ask, Don't Tell.  Prior to that it wasn't an issue and as far as I know it wasn't a "crime" like being gay.

      ++++

      If a woman gets pregnant, she's treated like someone who broke their leg or some other serious injury that makes them unable to fulfill all of their duties.

      Oddly, if a guy admits to purposely breaking his leg to avoid duty and a girl admits to purposely getting pregnant to avoid duty, only one will get thrown out with a dishonorable discharge.    For the clueless, it ain't the one with the vag.

    • RE: Do dead people feel any pain?

      For this thread, let's just focus on the main point; do dead people feel pain.

      ++++

      The reason only a few are put on death-row, is because until they get to a certain point in their appeals process, they are kept in "Gen Pop" if it's safe for them to be there.

      Texas, for example, executes 5 to 6 times more men each year than they have death-row cells.

    • RE: Where do you get your news?

      The BBC is pretty SJW.  Name any SJW talking point and they report it as fact.    They de-muslim stories whenever they can.

    • RE: What does GQ stand for?

      Without a direct and blatant call for debate, clearly there is a call for debate here.

      Does Colin deserve to be MAN OF THE YEAR of GQ or anything for that matter?

    • RE: This is the DEBATE group.. not the FAKE NEWS group

      I wonder if the SJW loonies ever down voted each others for lies, such as the one Suitieday posted claiming that Anthony Weiner was innocent 2 days after he plead guilty to ALL charges.

      Even with their supposed high moral standards, I seriously doubt if they had any problem with it.  Contrast this with flooding the report system if a conservative posted an article that could be in disute because all the facts aren't out yet.

      @flozen:

      @raphjd:

      If you look at my down votes, you will see the same 6 people (only shows the top 6) for Fred.   Someone, I won't mention Flozen's name (oops, that just slipped out),  in this thread is in my top 6 down voters.

      I'm glad you noticed.  I assign Thumbs Down for a variety of reasons, but chief among them are:

      • Potty mouth

      • Absence or weakness of citations

      • Intentional leading of threads off-topic as a diversion when "losing"

      • Inability or unwillingness to evaluate new facts presented by others

      Well, the list could go on and on.

      LOL.

      Why did you leave out "not worshiping feminism and all it's religious dogma"?

      Anyway, it says volumes that you are up there with Suitieday, Wafflez, DrWas and the other rancid SJWs who would follow me around and proudly down vote me for filling porn requests or helping people in the support section.

      @cteavin:

      You're not going to answer the question yourself?

      Yes, Frederick, please respond.  The highly regarded contributors of YouTube deserve the credit.

      YouTubers, even the SJW crackheads, are probably more honest than anything on CNN

      Of course, virtually all the down voters are SJWs of one stripe or another.  As admin, I'm sure a small amount are people who didn't like my answer to a question or comment they had about the site.

      Even RoyalCrown89 got down vote bombed by his fellow SJWs when he said he supported free speech as defined by the USSC ( I agree with him on that).

      Same thing when I finally got 6 or so leftist to condemn the violence.  SJWs down vote bombed their asses for it.
