    @royalcrown89: Just looked it up and yep, that's what happened sadly. Looks like MAGA and President Agent Orange are actually motivating crazies to commit murder against fellow American citizens. http://time.com/4681450/kansas-gunman-shooting-race-crime/ When the leader of your country can't separate fantasy from reality, you have to know, it will just get worse.

    Sigh…the annoying thing is how fast people post this crap (both the right and the left) without fact checking. It makes it really hard to take them serious afterwards.

    Sweden is becoming a failed state where politicians are more concerned with selling a false image of the country to the world than actually fixing the structural problems the country is facing, from integration of foreigners to the rise of white supremacists. Sweden has the highest rape rate in Europe. You would think they would be very concerned and working to protect the victims, when in reality they are more concerned with denying statistical evidence. http://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/stats/Crime/Rape-rate

    @Eridanos: UK voted (well most people in the UK voted) to leave the European Union.  It was the mayority's will so Theresa May has to respect that. The funny thing I find is that all those separatists politicians didn't have the balls to take the mantle in this cumbersome process. Trump is a sign of the polarization in the USA, it also shows how the Left failed to care for American society as a whole. Regarding both topics, considering UK's circumstances, I'd rather have all those who oppose the country to have a trade agreement with USA just because Trump is a loudmouth, misogynistic and whatever asshole, to reconsider.  UK will need many trade agreements and USA is just such a ripe market…America consumes and wastes like no other country. That's the reason Mexico won't give up relationships with USA so easily...an increase of 25% exports to USA generates more income that a 50% increase in our exports with the rest of Latin America (yes, building trade agreements with other countries as a safety net is the ideal and most sensible thing to do, but the American market is just too voracious and good to just leave without trying) Precisely. What's happening in the West is a result of decades of politicians not listening to their constituents. People wouldn't become so extreme if politicians didn't turn everything into elitism, nepotism, corruption, born into power.

    LOL, gotta love the dictionary fallacy. The faact that black people can do "white people go around" and force white students to walk through a creek to get to class while police stand around and do nothing shows that non whites have the privilege at least at Berkeley.    Blocking roads and preventing ambulances to get through while chanting about killing cops shows non whites have privilege.  Shouting in the face of a US Senator who's running for President, because you think you are more important than he is, shows non white privilege.  Hijacking every event shows non white privilege. You keep claiming that I deny ALL accounts of racism.  Try showing proof of this BS claim.  I admit to actual racist things, not made up "everything is racist" and "all crackers are the devil" crap.  You are nothing ridiculous racist.

    @grover59: The truly wealthy (the 1%) don't know what work is other than a game of competitive tennis and tire easily Oh, come on now, be fair… There's 1%'ers who started out in their garage... Most American Billionaires are self made... https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/269593 Also, the ability to "Go Play Tennis" is an important concept in big business called "Sustainability." If you own a company and you employee 10,000 people, you run the show and there's no board/upper management level, and you unfortunately die. Now what? 10,000 people lose their jobs? It's critically important that the ownership and leadership are not the weakest links… Also, for many people who do end up getting wealthy, at some point in their journey, they've made their dreams reality, what are they suppose to do? Fire everybody and call it a day? So they built a company, they can't go play golf when they want to?...

    @guilhrsme: @raphjd: Her biggest crime to Trumptards is that she HAS A VAGINA. Those redneck men can't deal with a woman in charge and those redneck women have to do what their husbands tell them to do. I don't like her because she's a feminazi and panders into identity politics. Don't use the term "feminazi", it's offensive to the woman's struggle. Why should he care? He's not a woman or fucking a woman. (I assume)

    @amicusets: Do you realize how polls work, and how they decide which demographics voted which way? If you don't then you probably quit trying to use "demographics" as an argument for why you think only stupid people voted for Trump. I did NOT mean Korea. I was repeating Rep. Waters's claims. So, you are a constitutional law expert, that thinks the EO was unconstitutional? What brings you to that conclusion considering I have yet to read a single expert opinion that thinks that. For one thing, the constitutionality has yet to be argued in any court, and if you are referencing CA9's decision not to stay the TRO, I would like to remind you that CA9 is consistently one of the tope 2 circuits overturned by the SCOTUS, but please, enlighten us all on the constitutional law that you are apparently more versed in than the vast majority of experts in the field. Demographics do not change based upon polls, polls that sample populations can. This is extremely basic statistics… If you do not understand the difference, I can not help you. Okay, I see what you're saying but; you can't mix quotations and your own statements and be credible. The quote was "And the fact that he is wrapping his arms around Putin while Putin is continuing to advance into Korea." Your failure to either quote the (potentially) misspoken statement or indicate the statement was misspoken is your responsibility, I read what you wrote. Your statement is just as incorrect as the statement Maxine Waters made. Also, you accusing somebody of being ignorant when you fail to use quotations properly is comical… Since you didn't quote her, you just made the same mistake. I don't even understand why you would bring this up when Donald has said things like: "Because I was down there and I watched our police and our firemen down at 7/11, down at the World Trade Center right after it came down. And I saw the greatest people I've ever seen in action." Not to mention, that he has repeatedly made up words and don't even get me started on Sean Spicer, who is probably going to be out a job soon, or Kellyanne Conway referring to nonexistent terrorist attacks. If you want to argue they are all ignorant, sure I completely agree. Something tells me you didn't think your argument through very carefully. 3)It appears you have not read the ruling, I suggest you go read the ruling yourself: https://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2017/02/09/17-35105.pdf I'll remind you that "the opinions you have read" do not represent all opinions and there were certainly many who did not agree, but I realize, Googling the information would require you to leave your comfort zone, which you obviously have no plans on doing. It's unlikely that SCOTUS would even hear the case. The solution is quantification, it's easy to evaluate the legality of a binary order. An order of the same effect be easily achieved by dramatic restrictions and reductions. Trump should give up (sounds like he is) and rewrite the order, preferably into separate orders. I'm totally for restricting the flow of migrants from countries in the middle east, which is where the majority of the terrorists are and have historically come from. Cherry picking out a handful of countries and then blaming Obama is not how that should have been handled. I think people know Obama isn't the president anymore. The US is going to be in a bad situation in a decade when companies like Google automate cars and basically everything else. I think it's a wonderful idea to start to limiting immigration now before the job market gets completely taken over by robots. If you think the percentage of people not participating in the job market is high now, just wait… https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS11300000 I hope you understand that the unemployment numbers are complete horseshit... This is a real issue... Immigration needs to get heavily restricted across the board and the illegals need to go... This Muslim crap is a total distraction from what needs to happen.

    @YoungGun: alol biased much?  I was simply posting on a quick google research about the topic not trying to make some political point.  I cited a source and you didn't.  I never said these online articles were incredibly vetted facts or examples of statistical perfection.  Let's try to have a civil conversation instead of resorting to partisan mudslinging k?  Also if you read my other post, I already said that California seceding would be bad for California and the USA, so stop assuming too much just because I'm bringing up ideas outside your current opinions.  Sheesh. As for your claims on meats and grains, where did you get that idea?  A simple google search seems to indicate that California has no such deficit on those areas. Defensive much? Partisan mudslinging? lol.  I just wanted to see if anyone would dare to post some data (good data) that validated their claims.  You did…but still you need to learn to choose your sources carefully. And of course I don't need to give a source, since I'm not stating facts.  It's just my opinion. And our conversation was being pretty civil, better than at least the name callings and whatnots that are slung in this particular subforum. And I'm from Mexico, so I'm neither a Democrat nor a Republican. (Mexico taking Cali in? LOL I bet that if Mexico dared to propose that, California would freak out and cease with their secession idea)

    @royalcrown89: It's so hilarious when people compare the polls from the 2016 election to the polls reading the public's approval on #45. You cannot compare because asking someone who they will vote for is entirely different than asking someone if they approve or disapprove of #45 on his current job in office. You're right.  I  think even his voters expected him to do a lousy job.  They didn't care.  They would gladly sacrifice America and their freedom to keep someone with a vagina out of the oval office.

    @aadam101: Anyway, I'm off to a benefit for the victims of Bowling Green. Well, aren't you just a saint? This post doesn't reek of piousness and virtue signaling at all. Very subtle! What ever happened to people engaging in something because it was important to them? Why has complacent, first-world "activism" turned into an excuse for self-aggrandizing Instagram photo-ops? It's very difficult to take seriously anyone who has to convey their moral superiority to others by exclaiming how busy they are with "benefits" and other pointless gatherings of bored, pampered, lazy, guilt-ridden Westerners patting one another on the back. Particularly when it's clearly just an excuse for reactionaries and the uninformed to deflect scrutiny.

    Yeah, he's a crap speaker.  He's not so bad when he has rehearsed script.  He's a pretty good writer though, even if nothing he says or writes can ever be trusted. I still don't understand why TYT hired this fraud.  Did they think that hiring him would give them street cred with blacks?  It was blacks who named him Talcum X.

    @Spintendo: Sorry to disappoint you Henny Penny—but the sky is not falling.  :cheerup: This suggestion came about when a pregnant patient born anatomically female but who identifies as male did not wish to be called "mother" several times during his visit with clinicians. An advisory notice was circulated, gently reminding clinicians that these rare instances can occur, and suggested not using labels like mother when interacting with them. But 1 person requires a rule change? Will they add "attack helicopter" to the tick box list for sex?  If not, why not? Why won't the BMA bow down to me and tell everyone to refer to my hair color as  "similar to a sofa I once saw"?
