  1. ]Hi jc, Who could forget? 1982, somewhere in the south pacific.
  2. Wendy P. The end user of the product had no idea who was putting in the furniture. The installation companies that installed the furniture knew for sure and they should be penalized.
  3. Before I went back to school for nursing, I was in the office furniture business.( building office cubicles) When I started in 1990 the entry level pay was on average 13-14 dollars per hour. When I left in 2000, the average starting wage was 9-10 an hour. with the majority of workers now being illegal. This is true with many of the blue collar jobs in California.
  4. I wonder why, on average, a person's view on immigration is directly related to how one's life is impacted by illegal immigration? http://people-press.org/report/274/americas-immigration-quandary
  5. Who ever said that enforcing immigration laws were to be limited to one ethnicity?
  6. Simply due to the fact that 90% of illegal immigrants come from from one racial group. This makes you a racist pig.

Cats have over one hundred vocal sounds, dogs only have about ten. Our eyes are always the same size from birth, but our nose and ears never stop growing.

Nutmeg is extremely poisonous if injected intravenously. Only one person in two billion will live to be 116 or older. If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee. If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb. The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet. On average, people fear spiders more than they do death. The strongest muscle in the body is the TONGUE.

There are 336 dimples on a regulation golf ball.
  8. So you think groups that espouse the exclusion of people based on race are acceptable? Do you believe any steps should be taken to stop illegal immigration? Do you believe California,or any border states have been impacted by illegal immigration?
  9. 170 post trying to argue logic and morals with a truther?
  10. Play the race card, always the easy way out. To say that I am racist is just a bit insulting. I have watched our schools go from tops in the country to almost dead last (New England states rank the highest) Why is it racist to suggest that we can not educate every child that is here illegally? When it comes to my children I tend to be a bit selfish. The amount of money we spend in California on education is staggering, with a good portion of that going to educate the "undocumented" About ten years ago when my Daughter was 8, her school had a fund raiser. She worked her butt off hawking candy and wrapping paper only to find out that all the money would go to a Hispanic cultural center at her school. When the parents of non-Hispanic children complained, take a guess what they were called? This school was also one of the poorest performing schools in California as a large portion of the school was ESL, diverting much needed resources from English speaking children. I don't give a flying rats ass about the color of a persons skin, but we can no longer let anyone who wishes come to this country. White, black, brown, yellow or red, they need to do it legally. Let me also clarify that I do not suggest that we don't educate Children that are here illegally. It is not their fault. California just can not absorb the amount that continue to flood in, we need to stop them at the border.
  11. With all the tension at live oak, the high school here in morgan hill, it is not hard to see why some students could get a bit fed up. Hispanics in the schools here are in the majority, and some of them make it no secret that Cailfornia really belongs to Mexico. Many Hispanics are extremely racist and openly espouse the anexation of California to Mexico. On may 5 this rhetoric is extremly loud. http://www.limitstogrowth.org/WEB-text/aztlan.html

  13. I know, I had to do that in Ohio, New York, Illinoise,Missouri, and Tennessee back when I was a teen and traveling the country....worked out in my favor though, I got a bed and three meals for a day! Your wrong: The Supreme Court has recognized the significant intrusion occasioned by an identifcation requirement in a statute. See Brown v. Texas 443 U.S.47, 52, 99 S.Ct. 2637, 61 L.Ed.2d 357 (1979). "We believe that the serious intrusion on personal security outweighs the mere possibility that identification may provide a link leading to arrest."
  14. *** You clearly have no idea how naive a statement that is. Please see my post #33 above. As I noted in the other AZ thread, I've worked in and around criminal justice in multiple jurisdictions for over 30 years. It's an open secret that drivers get stopped by police for "DWB" violations - "Driving While Black". Except in the southern border states, especially AZ now, it's "Driving While Brown". As I stated, they cannot legally stop you for looking brown, they can make up a mulitude of reasons why they did stop you. My point was that to say, to state that the law lets you stop anyone who is brown, to check there papers is incorrect. If I was a Hispanic citizen of Arizona I would try and get picked up, and have no proof of my legal status on me. If they then detained me I would sue the fuck out of them
  15. Agree or disagree with the new law but don't make it into something it is not. Law enforcment cannot (legally) stop you for just looking brown, they must first have reasonable cause that you committed a crime.( other than immigration status) To think that a law, that gave the police the power to stop anyone, for anything is just silly. Such a law would never be constitutional and that is why Arizona made sure to put into the law when and how people can be questioned so it has a chance to stand up in court.
  16. He also said.... "And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life." Matthew 19:30 Now there are some family values.
  17. Watched it the other night, great show, just wished it was longer than one hour.
  18. On a some what related note, I really do not want to know anything about the religion or political beliefs of people I jump with. I enjoy skydiving way too much to ever let stuff like that sway my opinion of someone.
  19. It's amazing how much you have in common with the Taliban. The fact is you are living through one of the greatest times in the history of man. For 1900 years we lived in a time when superstition was the norm, but now with the advent of science,we are losing the superstitions of our ancestors and living a realty based life. Your beleif system will soon become a thing of the past, perhaps in your lifetime. If I truly beleived that I would spend eternity flying around heaven with wings, why would I care about what all the godless heathens are doing here? Hell, I would be packing fast, pulling low, down sizing on a monthly basis. What would it matter if I truly knew I would have ever lasting life? Somehow I think you christians don's fully by into all this crap.
  20. That's just the thing, we have a long history of this, we should know better, and even when it's obvious how this will all play out, we keep right at it.
  21. How many more American kids, and billions of dollars will we have to lose, until we realize that this one is a losing battle? http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/36178710/ns/world_news-south_and_central_asia/
  22. Your score is 10 on a scale of 1 to 10. You are a pure, unabashed, die-hard Democratic loyalist. You are appalled by the way Republicans are turning America into a theocratic, corpo-fascist police state, and you'd gladly walk through a furnace in a gasoline suit to elect a Democratic president. In your view, there is no higher form of patriotism than defending America against the Republican Party and every intolerant, puritanical, imperialistic, greed-mongering, Constitution-shredding ideal for which it stands.
