Suicide rate in USA now higher than road deaths
rickjump1 replied to Skyrad's topic in Speakers Corner
No, this is BS.http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8389778.stm Adding 30,000 more troops in Afghanistan for "world security", and giving the enemy a withdrawal date at the same time was brilliant. There is no date for removal of all Americans. We have a broken military with broken equipment. Oh yeah, the CIA and Special Ops got obl; barack hussein obama just gave a nod from a chair and took all the credit. This is a man who refrains from using the word "terrorism". PS The iranians have more pull with iraq, but we still have a presence there. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts. -

Maybe you don't remember that as a candidate, obama promised to get the troops home, and in reality they faced more deployments. Now there are questions on how many thousands will stay after they all come home? According to my friend, a retired LTC/contractor in Afghanistan, we are still building up installations there, and there is no end in sight. Before he went to Afghanistan, I tried to warn him of my 38 mos 11 days in Vietnam and how we walked in the end. Now he knows; only we aren't walking anytime soon. Your president has been less than truthful when it comes to foreign policy and committing American lives. The more he kills, the less votes against him (or hillary). Remember, Bush has been long gone, and barrybarack was going to give us "change"? That wasn't a lie. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts. -
And this is exactly why the NRA is so full of shit. Firstly, what applies in Australia does not apply in the US. There was never a constitutional right to own guns, there was always a level of control. The buyback program only targeted a small subset of the weapons that people owned, and the rate of gun crime has gone down if you look at the trends. But then, the NRA were never terribly good at letting facts play any part in their discussions. Maybe you should ACTUALLY look at the statistics rather than going on anecdotal evidence hmmm? http://www.ncpa.org/sub/dpd/index.php?Article_ID=17847 I think you can say that gun confiscation had no impact on violent crime. In fact, it went up. I would hope mass shootings never happen again there, but there is no guarantee. What amazes me is that thousands of shotguns were not exempt, or did the government just scare everyone? They try that in the US too, but most know when to call it BS. You see, most Americans believe their government represents them. In real life, we have no government leaders. We have representatives. They have to be reminded, but that's what they are. Statistics?

Ron, hang on. I think you will be exonerated. Once the threatened career cia and state department types start talking, the rest will follow. One additional detail: UN Ambassador Rice contradicted the Libyan president's own assessment of what actually happened. Think he considered that an insult (and from a women to boot)?

Those wild and crazy Jews... Israel's Ambassador to the UN once told the Russians to lay off or else. He then reminded them they were fully prepared to fly one way trips to Moscow. If barrybarack insists on arming al queda backed troops in Syria, we may get to see US tax dollars go up in smoke. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

There's been some terrible instances in Lakeland, Fl where an established neighborhood became a haven for drug dealers, break ins, and assaults. Houses lost by working individuals came up on the market, and were bought by enterprising individuals who turn around and rent them out to people on welfare; courtesy of the US Government. Great investment if you have no conscience, and I wonder how the original owners are doing. Sad.. You're lucky. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

Looks like we do have some cultural similarities after all: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Arthur_massacre_(Australia) This little piece of information explains why we saw all those pistols, rifles, and shotguns being cut up in Australia for the actions of one wild and crazy guy. I spent one Christmas on R+R with an Australian family. I came back two times later; one month at a time. I loved the place, and most of the people I knew had firearms readily available. One friend packed when around his business. I never heard of any shootings like the one mentioned in the tattoo article up on the Gold Coast (doesn't mean they never happened). I stayed in Surfers Paradise, and never worried about my safety. Looks like times have changed. Maybe not in Australia, but here in the states 35 dead people/23 wounded would be called a mass shooting. I'm not going to bother looking up the stastics, but the NRA uses Australia as a prime example of what happens when a country is disarmed: a massive increase in crime because there's a pretty good chance most law abiding citizens have given up their guns.

GUN OWNERS According to the left wing zealots we have in politics....... We're not supposed to judge all Muslims by the acts of a few "crazies". But the acts of a few American “crazies” is enough to judge all Americans who own guns Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

We have the laws in place, but we lack any concrete enforcement of these laws already on the books. People continue to falsify applications to buy guns, and there are no arrests. Not all people making death threats against a spouse or anyone are totally disamed as required by local or federal law........there's a whoe laundry list. Bottome line, there will still be shootings (like in Australia), and possibly more mass shootings until our current laws are enforced including keeping guns away from the mentally incompetent.

Christians got out of the stoning business a couple of thousand years ago. Sure, it's written in the Old Testament, but the religion got out of the eye for an eye, stoning, and other barbaric customs that have been retained by islam to this day. So all the islamic terrorism in this country or overseas was committed by "insane fuckers"? I don't think so. They did it in the name of islam, and they were willing to die for allah. Jesus Christ would not ask any Christian to die for him. He might have a beer with you, but he wouldn't ask you to die for him. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

I believe the "unwavering and uncritical admiration of islam" is called islamophilia. Thankfully, "not all" liberals have it. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

That's true, but you left out stonings. In parts of the US today, it is legal for men to lay/lie together and be stoned. No matter the wordings, it would not be condoned under sharia law. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

"considering the shootings in my area"? I thought the Australian government collected all your guns. Is the author of this article admitting that gun control does not work?

You mean my PhD in underwater basket weaving won't get me a job with enough income to pay off my student loan? Well fuck, if the government doesn't bail me out, I might as well go kill myself. My future is fucked.... If the school counselor left out the part about, "knowing how to swim", you are already "fucked". Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts. -

DITTO. The parents were already swallowed up, and gave us a new generation complete with student loan and credit card debt, and their government now talks about forgiving student loans.

Sorry about the outburst. There was in fact a former black slave that watched an Apollo launch, being covered by mainstream media, that said something like, "I don't know where they are going, but they are not going to the moon". Is tha close enough

Plenty of friends there. Plenty of family, too (dad's from Boston originally, still plenty of aunts, uncles, cousins and my last remaining grandparent over there too). My dual citizenship trumps your lazy dismissal. American policy has global repercussions, to suggest anyone outside your borders can't have a valid opinion is arrogance in the extreme. You sound like an American half breed? I'm a quarter yankee, and it gives he goose bumps. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts. -

Republicans eroding democracy one state at a time...
rickjump1 replied to ibx's topic in Speakers Corner
How about the military. Do they count? http://voices.washingtonpost.com/federal-eye/2010/10/justice_dept_sues_for_military.html It's not just NY. Certain democrat strongholds in Illinois do the same thing. Like the Emperor of Rome, keeping the troops overseas insures their disenfranchisement (of course the presidential election is over).
