  1. Bill has a long list of women he has had some form of hanky panky with, unwanted or not, going back to his Arkansas Governorship days. Yes, there are allegations out there about events that should have resulted in jail time. And they have a fairly high level of credibility.

  2. He sure has tried to. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  3. You are correct for once. Trump has not yet been shown to have acted illegally in any significant manner. It was a farce when the R house voted to impeach Clinton and if the Ds took the house it would be a farce for them to impeach Trump. Impeachment could only be right if it had broad bi-partisan support. But you should understand that the dislike of Trump is not merely because he is an outsider. It is based more on the fact that he is a pathologically lying low life. Trump is not merely staining their house. He is shitting all over the floor and flinging it in people's faces.

  4. Whatsapp is social media. Even in a private group. These people are old enough to know that anything they post has a chance of being disseminated. Either to potential employers, the general public, or the university dean. If you don't want people to know what you think don't post it. Everyone needs to understand that. Will Arsalan suffer negative consequences? Maybe, maybe not. Should he? I'm not entirely sure. I'd need to see the totality of the stuff posted to decide for myself.

  5. There has never been any hint that Lewinsky needed to do it to keep her job. She always has said that she wanted the relationship. In other words, she was seduced. But that does not change the fact that Clinton was a classic hound dog and made full use of the aura of power that surrounded him. And that was the inappropriate part. The illegal part was perjuring himself. Even Trump has not done that. Yet. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  6. Yes, he could face a fine of up to twice the $130,000.00. Maybe someday. Long after the legal battles over the POTUS can even be charged and he has left office. Nothingburger. Move on to the things that matter. The policies he is pushing and the money his family is quietly trying to use his power to amass. The fact that 14/88 ers are feeling empowered.

  7. Cohen will be a stand up guy. He knows the rules. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  8. To be realistic it's a sex scandal. Yes, it's a cover up of a sex scandal, but by now most people know about married people cheating and then covering it up. On the list of bad things Trump has been involved in this is a very small matter. It only appears large because it gets a ton of coverage. It will change absolutely no one's mind about Trump. They will simply say that Clinton got away with abusing his office getting a BJ from a young intern. And do you know what? They are right. Abusing power like that is really far worse that paying off a porn star 10 years before becoming an office holder. As fun as watching the squirming and bullshit is, in the end this one is a true nothingburger for Trump. Although it will probably destroy Cohen. There are many far worse things to go after Trump over. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  9. There is a separate rating for PEPs as well as a rating for 2-pin reserves in Canada. Technically you could pack a round into a sport rig without these ratings as there is no "round" rating. But there aren't many sport rigs with those anymore. I only got my rating 6 years ago. I started jumping in 1992 and have never owned or packed a round canopy of any description in my life. I've only seen demonstrations. At 60 years old, it's unlikely I will ever decide to learn now. There is a local guy at another DZ I send pilot rigs to.
  10. Yes, it's fun to watch the lies pile up and the ridiculous twisting and dodging going on. In the end the payment probably did violate campaign finance laws. But so what? The penalties for those violations will be minuscule, even if they are prosecuted. Which is very doubtful. It is just another filthy story in the string of filth that is the life of the current POTUS. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  11. Rhetorical, right? Like Breitbart and Infowars believers. The Trumpeters have been given their new talking points. I expect Marc to weigh in shortly to re-spew them here. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  12. The UK has long had an inflated sense of it's place in world affairs. The USA inherited it from there. It comes directly from their ability to project power. Battleships, aircraft carrier groups, fusion bombs, Lord it's hard to be humble when you have so many ways to kick serious butt.

  13. I agree 100%. I've been married twice. Both times to nurses. Both were LPNs for a couple years before becoming RNs. Both will tell anyone who asks that the LPNs they know are highly under-rated. They are some of the best and most experience nurses out there. DZOs probably don't understand anything about this though. It's good that you are bringing it up.

  15. I guess that can be a factor alright. I find it hard to converse with people when I have no idea who they are or where they are coming from. It is very hard for me to find the subtext in the message. But I know that is a big part of how forums work. I really find your basic question to be quite overwhelming. To the point that it is hard to make sense of. Is The US moral? The government? The culture? The people? There is just too much to break down in your questioning of environmental policies, justice matters, and now I see that most people are taking it in the direction of how the US treats the rest of the world. A very valid consideration, but one you did not address in your question. Morality is very subjective. The US is neither moral nor immoral. Yet at the same time it is both. Like every other nation. So after considering it I'm agreeing and voting with Wendy. Boobies. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  16. I choose not to participate. Especially because you are anonymous. That is allowed here, but it makes me not want to engage with you on such an open ended question. Countries are not moral. Only people can be moral. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  17. Because it is complicated. People don't like to be pigeon holed. I self identify as liberal, but I have some views that more liberal people would disagree with. And even some that conservatives can agree with. I did not answer the poll because of that. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  18. I've looked at Clouds from both sides now From up and down and still somehow It's cloud's illusions I recall I really don't know Clouds at all Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  19. But only in a narrow range of balance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tbxq0IDqD04
  20. Mostly foreigners and American liberals who look down at America. Foreigners? Is this an American site? I'm a Canadian liberal who appreciates the USA despite it's problems. Demographically I'm a white male hetro 60 yo. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  21. Outside video is much better for making a product that you and many other jumpers find to be of higher quality. A handcam held a few inches from the customer's face combined with an exit shot from an aircraft mounted camera produces a product that the customer will like better. You just have to understand who is paying for the product and what their needs are. Some DZs push outside video because it fills slots and provides work for staff. It does not give the customer good value though.
  22. Gotta love it when posts contain irrelevant information that serves only to reveal the biases of the poster. There was security video of the perps. I still can't find this story. But I did find a video of a similar incident that involved a much younger woman. How about a source? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  23. Well then. Maybe they should stand up to the agents of the Deep State who would deny them their rights. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  24. Gotta love it when posts contain irrelevant information that serves only to reveal the biases of the poster. Yup, might as well have said "three scary boogeymen". And I'd like to see a link to that story. Google turns up nothing. Did it come from a gun rights site or something? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  25. Oh, I'd better fix that link! http://www.onlyinyourstate.com/west-virginia/favorite-foods-wv Everyone has their favourite foods. And almost every food has someone who claims it is bad for you. I'm just glad I live in a place where I can pretty much eat whatever I want without having to spend everything I have just to stay alive. I used to eat at buffets. But no more. I'd always make sure I got my money's worth. And that is truly bad for me. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
