    Then I suppose you feel the same way about nonscientists and climate change. IMO, global warming/climate change is a phantom issue and I do not waste any significant mental energy thinking about it. Typing this response is the most time I've spent on the subject in the last, or I don't know, maybe, 6 or 7 years. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

    I see no reason why a counselor would seek to build a bridge or design a power grid. By the same token, I see no reason why an engineer would seek to counsel a mental health or substance use disorder client. In SC nothing is designed or settled. Only emotions are expressed. I try to be honest about mine. Others try to hide behind supposed facts. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

    I'm not so sure I agree. I cannot express my anger in a way that would ever be socially acceptable to liberals. I simple study their methods and turn it against them - it's child's play, and apparently very effective. What Ron means is that what he feels to be true is more important than what is actually true. It's called "truthiness" and is a characteristic of Trump supporters. You are confusing feelings (emotion) with beliefs. That is a common mistake for non-professionals. Feelings, beliefs and fantasy, three important factors in counseling. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

    So a young black or hispanic youth is driving his car in an open carry state. They are wearing a holster. With a loaded firearm. Cops think they are bad guys and run a check. They find out they were arrested for a misdemeanor for graffiti. Cops take their gun. You're OK with that? Why would that happen in an open carry state?

    But.... inner city youth are the ones who need weapons the most. The murder rate is higher there. So according to NRA logic they should ALL carry guns. For self protection. An armed society is a polite society, remember? Obtain a concealed carry permit. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

    Yes, if they do not have a permit they are in violation of the law in most states. Confiscate their firearm and arrest them. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

    I believe Trump is talking about profiling those who look suspicious followed by stop and frisk. No problem there. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

    Right on! Statistics is a mathematical process to lie and manipulate. Only TV SciFi characters make decisions solely on statistics. SC is an emotional forum and a place for venting. The bottom line is that people decide based on how they feel. When you bring statistics into the argument you just make others frustrated and they have to vent to a higher level of intensity. Intelligent people learn to express emotions in a socially acceptable manner not justify their emotion with statistics. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

    Another thought, the last ten years of my employment I worked with convicted felons with drug related charges. Most of my clients were thugs/Hispanics/Latinos. The treatment favored was/is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. The subgroup of thugs were generally average intelligence or lower. Their behavior diagram is something like this: Event -> Emotion -> Action Our focus was to teach them to add thinking to the process to alter the dynamic to: Event -> Emotion -> Thinking -> Action They are not taught that in the hood. Hispanics/Latinos were different. They were generally higher functioning and incorporated the thinking process. Their analyzation frequently had a delayed revenge aspect.

    In this very thread you said that 13% of the population is committing 52% of all murders. You then confirmed that when you refer to 13% you are referring to all black people. You don't have a problem with just thugs and gang bangers. By your own words, you have a problem with all black people. That is racist. Still wondering? Well, I first heard that statistic from Tj Sotomayor. He quoted the stats in a YouTube video talking about how dangerous niggers (his terminology) were. He makes a distinction between them and others of his race. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Sotomayor I posted the link to the video elsewhere in SC. I do not have a problem with all black people, Negroes. I have borrowed winsor's terminology. It is the term I was taught and grew up with.

    And Hispanics/Latinos. That doesn't mean all are bad just those subgroups. Why is that so hard to grasp? Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

    And yet, in this forum I state a strong dislike gang bangers and thugs and I am labeled a racist. I wonder why that is? Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

    Negro cop and black victim. Riots in the streets, this is low life behavior. People are getting fed up. All part of the BHO agenda. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/09/21/protests-break-out-in-charlotte-after-police-fatally-shoot-man-they-say-wielded-firearm/ Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

    I have only been up here four years. I am a professionally trained observer with a master's in counseling. I have done psychiatric assessments, have a fair amount of street smarts, and am pretty good at sizing up people. All that aside I believe Trump is God's man for this season. Not perfect mind you, but adequate to turn this situation around before it gets worse. The past eight years has produced an unbearable escalation in social chaos. People are afraid and very angry. Trump is solution focused. Hillary is status quo focused. ETA Graphic Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

    No, I was mostly looking at Trump's accomplishments as opposed to Hillary's scandals. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

    Sorry, what? That doesn't even make sense. Because he's angry and yells he won't start wars as a continuation of politics? How does that follow? You Trump opponents do not take into account that Trump is a New Yorker. He talks like a New Yorker. I pay more attention to actual behavior than spoken words. Of course, both must be considered. Around here it's all, do you know what Trump said? Hillary says this.... I will use billvon's Hillary evaluation compared to her behavior and talking points during the debates.

    I know that the 52% murder rate is mostly Negro killing Negro. But, I also know that Negroes will rob and beat up whites because we are likely to have more money.
