Gary is not nuanced. There aren't enough electrons in the universe to list where you are incorrect, but that is beside the point. You being fully indoctrinated in the absolute union leftist positions, can't see anything except through those glasses ... The nuance is that on the list of things that society has for police, I place the safety of the public higher than I place the safety of an individual officer. If that individual officer does not has ready access to a weapon then he will not endanger the public waving it around every opportunity he gets. |

Ozzfan--Berlin wall analogy? Really? And that didn't work because the east Berliners couldn't stop the invasion from the west? Yes, Berlin wall analogy because it is the perfect analogy. It was put up by a fascist regime, just as Trump or Cruz would do. It did work for as long as it was up. But while it was up, it only angered the people until they tore it down. Walls are not the answer. Walls are never the answer. Learn from history and try something else. Oh wait, you want to turn back the clock by 100+ years because you believe that is when America was last great. 100 years ago the Berlin wall didn't exist, so it would be a new idea for someone like you. Still doesn't work and is still a terrible idea. |

so... Cops without guns and a dictatorship, by anyone -- left or right, is hard to do isn't it? There are many nuances that binary thinkers can't grasp. |

Does Putin smoke pot? No, Mr. Putin is very shrewd and has figured out how to make Trump his pawn. |

bobby--I don't know if you've realized this or not, but I'm no longer accepting open-ended questions from you. I will, however, answer closed-ended questions from you. My "other half" was just in Manhattan. My "other-half" tells me DeBlasio is turning it into a big open pile of trash. Lovely, isn't it? Would asking for more specifics about this "big open pile of trash" be an open ended question? If not, could you provide some? The last question I asked of you in this thread was in relation to your post: Trump wants to ban Muslims from entering this country. When I asked you what your view was of the whole truth. Does this "whole truth" relate solely to Muslims entering the country? If not, can you provide details of 3 other areas that are part of this "whole truth"? Otherwise, can you provide up to three reasons why you believe "Trump wants to ban Muslims from entering this country" is not the "whole truth"? I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that ... |

My "other half" was just in Manhattan. My "other-half" tells me DeBlasio is turning it into a big open pile of trash. Lovely, isn't it? Interesting, in other threads I've made the comment that the plural of "anecdote" is not "data", seems that's true here too. Last year, 28,609 people were cited for public urination, an offense that must be witnessed by an officer to be charged. As of June 14, there have been 6,799 such tickets, down from 8,329 at this point in 2014. (data). A less than 20% reduction in charges does not suggest to me that there's been a policy of decriminalization. Perhaps noteworthy is that July and to a lesser degree August had less rain and both were warmer than average. These environmental facts may have contributed to an impression that there was a particular problem this year. I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that ... |

Bobby, don't confuse a good rant with facts. You know it just upsets the under bridge dwellers. |

1. "temporary" ban Right. And walls to hold us in. Even Alex Jones has a clip on youtube where his associates decry one of the latest proposals regarding the internet. Is Jones' love affair with Trump ending? 2. wants to find out what's going on People are killing people. 3. wants to find out where the hate is coming from Hate is everywhere. It comes from the medulla oblongata. Even yours. Capitalize on this good fortune, one word can bring you round ... changes. |

Ah the intelligence of a voter for Trump: Is this for real? Due to strong, anti-Muslim language coming from conservatives, PPP wanted to show those surveyed were willing to bomb any country that sounds Middle Eastern, Mayhew said. How about Agrabah Bazaar, Orlando, Florida, USA! https://www.google.se/maps/place/Agrabah+Bazaar/@28.4186444,-81.5856513,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x88e780a2271768dd:0x402c96dfe05c3d37 |
