Kalamazoo's Waterfall
Not really an escalation, more of a natural progression to the scenario which you've painted.
People don't like their children being shot, so they will provide them with the whatever personal protection they would need for survival.
I think all of us, even the black criminals, know the answer to that problem. We're paying a very heavy price for the sins of our fathers, i.e, slavery. Violence and criminality is a congenital characteristic of black people and we are just going to have to live with the eye-watering cost of keeping them away from normal society. Maybe sometime in the future a programme of sterilization will be introduced.
How dare you not take offence when I went to the effort to be downright offensive. I was exercising my civil right to be insulting and you hadn't the common decency to express annoyance. From here on in I'm going to be polite and pleasant to you. See how you like those apples.
Of course we have you fool. Everyone on this site, including you, but excluding me, are are a bunch of pretentious wannabe academics who cannot communicate with their fellow human beings in the real world, so you, along with the rest of the rabble on here, use this medium to rent your frustrations and hang ups which are a result of your social backwardness. The stupidity of your questions are only surpassed by the embarrassingly ridiculous answers which you sometimes try to give.
I place intuition over logic every time. Creativity is seldom, if ever, based on logic. Entertainment is not based on logic, it is a medium of intellect and emotion. Inventiveness is spawned from totally illogical concepts and romantic visions of things never seen, tried nor even imagined before. The boredom of logic is the region where mathematicians spend their time. Throw the 'logic commandments of debate' in the bin and let every participant present their argument in their own individual manner.
The Planet of the Apps. Can't say that I do because I don't. Slack was the name given to a loose, slow burning solid fuel used in open fires around the the period of 40s and 50s. It spawned the light-hearted comment, tell your da not to go down the coal mine, there's plenty of slack in his drawers, (underpants).
On Friday past, somewhat lost, I was driving through the misty glens of County Mayo and stopped to ask the way to Achill Island. The local gave me clear directions and then, as I was leaving, commented, 'isn't that Donald Trump a dangerous man''. I thought, gee, even in the remotest corners of Ireland this boisterous man is both famous and feared. But, I think unjustifiably so. The people to fear are not true Americans, prominent or otherwise. By true Americans I mean the descendants of those European settlers who pioneered the Land and made it a nation which has the low lives of the failed countries of the world trying to gain entry by fair means of foul.
Criminals of all skin colours get shot every day trying to resist arrest. It's just that blacks have an inbuilt persecution complex which is fostered, and indeed encouraged by sanctimonious numskulls like you trying to stir the brown stuff. Killing for sport is pathetic and sick and the filth who willfully subjected this majestic animal to a prolonged 48 hour agonizing death deserves to be treated in exactly manner. Try thinking before you do a bit of cheap sniping from the anonymity of your computer room by making an altogether inappropriate analogy in an effort to gain the moral high ground. The big brave dentist will probably never be able to safely practice his profession again.
What about if we say that there is no such thing as an absolute truth? If we agree with that assertion, then the statement itself is an absolute truth. So, following that logic we have to accept that there is such a thing as an absolute truth which automatically renders that all opposing arguments are wrong.
Despite having all the advanced technology to which they referred at their disposal meteorologists and scientists can't forecast the weather accurately much further than 3 or 4 days ahead. In this context I would take this report with a ''dose'' of salts.
I agree, and recognise the essential part bees play in the global Eco system, but like other environmental catastrophes we are told the problem without offering a viable solution in which we could participate. We're told that every day a section of the rain forest the size of Wales is destroyed, ( it's always Wales) and the disastrous affect this has on the world's climate. What can I do about that? Go to South America and ask those logger chaps if they would mind awfully to stop chopping down so many trees? I'm sure you can see the problem I'd have with that. Travelling back to Ireland from Brazil with a hatchet sticking from my head would be bothersome. How can I help to save the world's honey bee population? Along with 100s of 1000s of others I plant flowers and flowering bushes which bees like, but this doesn't seem to be working. Let the experts tell us what to do and we'll give it our best shot.
Out of date proverb ;-''Beware Greeks bearing gifts''. No quarter should be given. The money which was given, and will continue to be given, derives from the hard working taxpayers of the Euro Zone States. The politicians, ( who in my opinion, were guilty of gross misconduct), were charged with the responsibility of using taxpayer's dosh wisely and prudently, but instead acted with blind disregard of Greece's disastrous economy and betrayed the electorate of their respective countries and should be summarily dismissed and charged with criminal negligence. Successive Greek governments willfully flaunted the fiscal restrictions governing membership of the Euro Zone in the full knowledge of the inevitable consequences. What, I ask, has changed within the Greek economy to make anyone think that they will be able to repay any new loans never mind the existing amount of £ 340 billion? Other countries which could shortly follow Greece include, Portugal, Spain and Italy. Should all these siesta loving, wine drinking nations all be ''cut some slack''?
Firstly, anyone can refer back to an isolated, specific point in history which suits their argument. The main recipients of the American aid programme, or the 'Marshall Plan' ( which was a loan, now repaid,) were France, the United Kingdom and Germany. no prizes for knowing the nation which used Uncle Sam's dosh to the best advantage. The Germans defaulted on the payments of the debt incurred as a result of the death and destruction they caused during WW1, whereas Greece dishonored the pledges they gave to secure the massive loans which they needed to keep their ''donkey and cart' economy in the 21st century. So, you're not really comparing like with like. The Greeks, along with the Argentinians stand as the pariahs on the international stage.
As close as I can calculate, about 22 million light years away. As soon a central government is established there will always be the formation of breakaway groups wishing to gain power by assuming the administration of their own regions, and/or opposing the political ideologies of the status quo. Mankind's territorial instincts will never diminish. Try placing people in an open office environment, and before long filing cabinets and over sized plants will start to be positioned around the individual desks. Note the break up of the old U.S.S.R., the, apparent, polarizing of the Northern and Southern States of the U.S.A., the cracks appearing in the European Union, the division in Northern Ireland where the comparatively small population of 1.6 million are, voluntarily segregated into the zones of their traditional cultures where the opposing para-military terrorist groups rule the residents in their respective territories.
Naw, not you Jolie, you're much too an intelligent, creative and fair minded person to get involved in such gutter snipe activities. I feel that you would consider everyone's angle on a topic and whilst not necessarily agreeing with their expressed sentiments, would pluck out whatever merit you felt they contained, thus becoming just that little bit more knowledgeable. Besides, I didn't mean to imply by my post that there were those bullies who do chew up newbies and spit them out, only that such resentful festering turds ''try'' to do this, but more often than not they discover that they have bitten off more than they can chew. ''Every dog will bark loudly in it's own yard'', or what it perceives as it's ''own yard'', but it's prudent to be certain to know what and/or whom your barking at.
Most existing participants, especially those long standing members, will try to establish dominance over the 'new guy on the block'' by challenging most, if not all of their opinions. Some do this with a merciless brutality, whilst others, although more subtle, will, nevertheless go for the jugular. Also, the protagonists will use such aggressive activity to try to identify what the newbi is made of and whether they will be easily intimidated. It's the same in the proverbial jungle of life, most men will perceive new male members to the firm, the gym, the club, their local pub or wherever, as a threat until some sort of pecking order has been established.
Whilst the traditional roles in a marriage may have changed it does not mean that one spouse has dominance over the other nor that it should be replaced by the more lose, partnership arrangement. Marriage is, or at least should be a declaration of love for each other by the two parties joined in this union, and generally speaking, offers a more stable environment in which to raise a family. The vows taken should act as a constant reminder of the responsibilities which both parties have to ensure that throughout the duration of the ever changing ''tone'' of their relationship they adopt the necessary compromises as well as engaging in a meaningful analysis and cementing of the commitment to each other. It has been my observation that the character weaknesses which result in divorce appear again in any new relationship. Best to stick to your guns with the ''devil you know'' and go for a renaissance of your love for each other if the marriage is going through a tough patch. Any irresponsible low life can pack up and run away when the going gets difficult.
Are you suggesting that god was/is the original suicide bomber, but, unlike Humpty Dumpty, is reassembling himself? If so, the Christian God's self destruction has created all life on earth and everything in the cosmos. Thanks God. Let's hope The destructive Islamic god doesn't come along and annihilate this wonderful creation.
One of the best ways of making money is to create a new religious denomination. Your concept is as good as any of the existing ones so why not get a soap box and start preaching. ''The Lord saith, give Jolie your dosh to build a Tabernacle where I can be praised in prayer, song and by donating your hard earned money to Jolie. Your reward will be in heaven, hallelujah brother, hallelujah.
This question would have more credibility if you had provided some verifiable global statistics. ( the video link was inaccessible, well at least it was for me.) The United Stares is an open society in which all forms of crime are reported and in the 'public domain' for anyone to scrutinize. This isn't the case in most Asian countries such as India and Pakistan where rape and violence against females is a congenital part of their culture. No one knows what is happening in countries such as Russia whose ''tin curtain'' regime denies the free flow of information. Another interesting statistic would be the ethnic background from which most rapists originate. In the U.K, 90% of rape and violent crime originates from the blacks, even though they only form 10% of the population. After that, Asians, particularly the Pakistanis, are responsible for most cases of rape and paedophilia.
The term should be re-titled, ''selective equality''. How many female motor mechanics do you see in oily dungarees lying under vehicles with greasy hands and grimy fingernails? Or, tyre fitters, lumberjacks, road diggers, steel fixers and so forth? The equality brigade must wear special glasses which filter out the aforementioned career categories as they browse the, 'Job vacancies' in the various media advertisements.
The simple point here is that, let's say the standard tax band is 25%, then clearly 25% of £ 100k is significantly more than 25% of £ 25k, £18750 to be precise. So, the surgeon or senior manager contributes more to the nation's welfare than the supermarket check out girl. Countries without talented and able entrepreneurial risk takers are personified in such nations as Liberia, Zimbabwe, Haiti and even Greece. It's easy to sit mindlessly in the illusion of a so called ''safe job''and get a ''FREE RIDE'' on the backs of those prepared to ''take the point''. When the percentage of ''free riders'' becomes too great we end up with situations as illustrated in Detroit which used to be one of the most prosperous cities in the United States until it was swamped by the walking dead who feel that they have a right to a job which must be provided by;- ''them'', the much maligned entrepreneurs. Of course businesses fail, but, if there was a guarantee of success then even the faint of heart would be doing it. For every 10,000 people who talk about starting their own business only one has the balls to actually take the plunge. Those with their water wings and life preservers follow resentfully in the wake of their superiors.
If everyone was taxed at the same percentage rate the high earners/hard working achievers would be contributing more to the government coffers. Why should people be penalized with a higher rate of tax because they're clever, have taken risks to ''climb the ladder'', studied hard at school/university? If the fool on the right who is bellowing about 90% tax on the wealth creators got his way there would be a mass exodus from the United States by the people whom are needed most.
No, that's just silly sexism. However, female nipples should be censored, and stay censored. There's nothing more grotesquely repugnant than saggy female boobs. Imagine trying to eat a meal close to a withered up old hag with her wrinkled 'thrupenny bits' drooping into her soup. Ahhh. The restaurant would have to provide blinkers and a sick bag for the other diners.
The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne. When that Aprille with his shoures soote, The droghte of March hath perced the roote, And bathed every veyne in swich licour of which vertu engendered is the flour; Whan Zephirus eek with his swete breeth, Inspired hath in every holt and heeth. What's so difficult about English?
What sort of a stupid question is that? Au contraire,of course it doesn't you fool. It's just that there are so many idiots whose opinion doesn't agree with mine and it is therefore necessary to lambaste the buffoons with insults in the hope that they'll recognize that my viewpoint is always correct. Now, what's wrong with that?
From a male's angle, keep yourself in good shape, well groomed and healthy. This will mean that you can always have a mistress to add excitement throughout your life. Having a succession of doting, beautiful, young ''Inn Keeper's wenches'' drooling over you is like heaven on earth. Sex, as well as money, make the world go around.
In the old wild west horse thieves were hanged by the neck until dead. They weren't hanged for stealing horses, but to deter people from stealing horses. It was a highly effective way with which to deal with what was then an epidemic, just as ''Bongo'' looting is an epidemic today. The difference between then and now is that the politicians had balls whereas today's vote conscious politically correct wimps have chocolate eclairs for backbones.
The manufacturing company, 'Bongo Work Boots Ltd,'' went bankrupt within the first six months of trading. Can you think of anything more suspicious than a sweaty Bongo looking over his shoulder and walking quickly with a television under his arm?
