  1. So if Austin has 45 fatalities this year and Chicago Lawn only 5, are the people who live in Chicago Lawn driving to Austin to shoot people? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  2. If my house is on fire I don't call the dog catcher. The organization needs to live up to it's name. From their website... Black Lives Matter is an ideological and political intervention in a world where Black lives are systematically and intentionally targeted for demise. It is an affirmation of Black folks’ contributions to this society, our humanity, and our resilience in the face of deadly oppression. They might be looking for deadly oppression in the wrong place.

  3. True it's an easy target and the data is readily available. http://heyjackass.com/ I understand your point however, if BLM says that black lives matter one would think they would be outraged at what's going on in those areas. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  4. Possibly. In 2013 council voted to suspend the registration requirement but you still have to have a permit. In almost 80% of the shootings no one has been charged. This is due to the locals not wanting to talk to police for fear of retribution. I seriously doubt the gun violence is being committed by people with a permit. Please don't dent the planet.

  5. Let's do a little math. There have been 332 murders to date in Chiraq. Let's assume 70% are black. That's 232 black lives. If you're calling your group Black Lives Matter where would your group want to focus it's attention? Where could you have the most impact? I mean, if you really believe black lives are important. It didn't take Mark but a few seconds to call me a racist. So we can't have this conversation because we are examining a black group? As long as that attitude continues the problem will only get larger. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  6. How about 'Passive Aggressive Central'? Trump Central? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  7. Ah, so you figure all of those are blacks killing blacks, which is why BLM doesn't care. After all, blacks have got to be the guilty ones, right? Now THAT'S pretty offensive. Chicago: 75% of Murdered Are Black, 71% of Murderers Are Black http://www.intellectualtakeout.org/blog/chicago-75-murdered-are-black-71-murderers-are-black I'm not imagining these numbers Bill.

  8. You really think I'm offended and outraged because someone made a joke? What offends me is groups like Black Lives Matter who crow about race only when it's a white cop shooting a black person. I hear nothing about the violence in Chiraq from them. I guess that makes me a racist. As such I dismiss their relevance as nothing more than political grandstanding. Please don't dent the planet.

  9. What does the Bureau of Land Management have to do with it? Funny. 102 people wounded...15 die and you make a joke. Bet you wouldn't be so sarcastic if you knew any of them. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  10. http://abc7chicago.com/news/102-shot-14-fatally-in-chicago-over-july-4-holiday-weekend/2184156/ Is it any wonder BLM isn't taken seriously? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  11. I'm in favor of raising the minimum wage. One of the problem employers have (in this area) is finding workers who want to get off SSI. As it is a job paying $9/hr isn't enough of an incentive to motivate people to get back in the workforce. That, and doing something about child care expenses. Many women on SSI who would actually make less money by taking a $9/hr job and having to figure out what to do with the kids. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

    Three resign from CNN after Russia story retraction The Hill - today An internal CNN investigation reportedly found that normal editorial processes weren’t followed in the story’s editing and publication. Only one anonymous source was used in the story, and typical parts of CNN’s workflow, such as fact checkers, were reportedly not utilized before publication. Those filled in on the results of the internal investigation were reportedly told that the facts of the story weren’t necessarily wrong, but that the piece wasn’t strong enough to run as is.

  13. True. But the precedence has been set. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  14. From the New York Times today Maybe we'll be able to keep our Chief Wahoo logo. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  15. I agree. Was pretty windy yesterday. I'm sure the blimp had it's hands full staying above the action. Still...we don't need to hear all that. And, I am tired of the yelling. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

  17. This is why some gay people will always have a difficult time in society. I'm not interested in watching 2 men make out. I'm not wired that way. I didn't say I was shocked or offended. I said I wasn't interested. You seem to think that's some sort of character flaw. The real flaw is you attacking me because I'm not gay. There is a difference between not being interested in something and refusing to watch the rest of a show because it had something in it you didn't agree with. I don't particularly enjoy watching people get murdered by being thrown in front of a train, but that doesn't mean I don't watch the rest of the show. Your disdain for a homosexual act is so strong that it doesn't allow you to watch the rest of a show. It is telling. Yep...I'm a homophobe. [/:P] Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

  19. Spoiler alert I stopped after Kevin Spacey made out with the SS guy. Call me what you like but I really am not interested in seeing that. Interesting fact, Spacey's wife on the show is none other than "Jenny" of Forrest Gump fame. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  20. Since SC has been reduced to liberals jacking each other off over their hatred of Trump I thought I'd send you a gift. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  21. Yes! They've obviously got spending under control in DC. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

  23. I should have named the thread "these are the tax rates you must pay if you want the government to give you everything for free". Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
