Per reports, he was moved from H.M.P.-Hull 7.4% Muslim to H.M.P.-Leicester 14.3% Muslim. .. The danger is that Leicester is a higher security prison with more dangerous criminals, and Tommy has ben put out on the mainline. (not protected custody.) -Hopefully, he'll still be okay.

Make 3 predictions for the 2018 Bills.
#34fan replied to GreggTX's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This Universe: 1. Bean and McDermott will look like they were both clueless. 2. Daboll will look clueless, get frustrated, and start barking at players. 3. OBD will consider cleaning house at the end of the season. Parallel Universe: 1. Fan's applaud switch to early 90's Uni's. 2. Bills DT Da'Ron Payne wins DROY. 3. Bills QB Jimmy Garropolo comes into his own, and leads the team to a 13-3 record. -

I'll never argue that you don't have a point, or say that you aren't coming from a place with your take on Islam.. I just think Europe, especially France, Germany, and Italy, have little choice now but to adapt.... The Muslim population in Italy has almost tripled since 1999... Going from 520k to 1.4 million in 2016... France has a Muslim population of 6 million, -Germany, 5... Munich alone has received as many as 13,000 Syrian refugees per day! -I see a very rough time ahead if rules aren't established and vigorously maintained. -

On the U.S. Payroll?.... -How did so many end up as Islamic state fighters? -
Needless to say, read the whole thing. It's going to be painful for some to see Tommy's career as an activist wind down... I won't be surprised if that's where things are headed... This kind of time away from his small children has got to be devastating... It's just doesn't seem sustainable what he's trying to do..

Well, There's 1.6 Billion worldwide... .Turks, Chechens, Kurds, Arabs, Pakistanis, Malays, Indonesian, Palestinian, Kazakh... A bunch of others I can't remember off the top of my head. I'm sure even you would be able to find a friend in there somewhere. -

Bottom line: I can link to research and media backing my point of view. You can't do the same for your bunk. I would argue that these strangely absent 'economic studies' don't take into consideration choices those under threat of annihilation will make that may not be in their long-term best interest... Your failure to acknowledge the violent nature of European/colonial greed, and accept that violence as a means of manipulating militarily inferior cultures proves that the only bullsh_t agenda here is yours. I'lll just add this to the pile of bunk you trot-out to back the absurd notion of clean European hands in the Atlantic slave trade . -With this now de-bunked classic. -BUNK! On the bright side, a dope-sick America might look to big pharma for help. -

Who wouldn't believe it? Barbary/Ottoman pirates plagued the mediterannean and coastal Europe for hundreds of years. It was largely a separate affair from the Atlantic Slave trade. -

What a pair of insufferable, pseudo-intellectual simps! When did I ever deny the role of Africans in the slave-trade?... I just maintained that YOUR account, per usual, is largely incomplete, and devoid of any context. One thing I'll give Wa-po is that it accurately established European (Portuguese, British) fingerprints all over the crime scene. Benin, (per your link) at the time was an expanding African kingdom at war with multiple tribes. I'm not sure why someone would think that Imperial expansion would be limited to European world powers. Trading enemy captives for things more useful, (like weapons, and metals) was considered a cleaner and more profitable means of disposal. However, state-sponsored slave trading in Benin would not seamlessly endure. At the heart of the Atlantic slave trade was European and colonial demand. Outside the Kingdom of Benin, the phenomenon of Africans selling other Africans on an industrial scale was also driven by fear of European reprisals... For many tribal African slave traders the choices were clear. 1)Trade slaves. 2)Be taken as one yourself. (with your family) 3) Let the Europeans strike a deal with your rivals, who would gladly enslave, or annihilate you, with the unbelievably deadly weapons furnished by their new white business partners. So if you're asking if someone put a gun to some African slaver's head, -The answer would often be yes. Yes they did. The false narrative that Africans exclusively and ruthlessly sought to undo 'their own kind' is nonsensical, and valid only to those trying to condone by rationalization a system that resulted in the death, torture, rape, murder, mutilation, and degradation of millions of human beings. You lunkheads always pick the same two paths after someone dispels your bunk. The subject is either deemed "too complex" to pursue, or your opponent, too stupid to discuss it with. It's a particularly cowardly form of evasion that suits you both very well. -

My rebuttal consisted of two simple questions you had no answer for. You said: I just asked: Admit it, -you were exalting European culture as a whole, while omitting centuries of war, horror, and atrocities that dominate the continent's history. I don't have to call you a racist anymore -Everyone already knows that to be true. -I'm just here to give notice that PPP no longer belongs to you and DC Tom... I like it here, and plan to be involved in alot more of these conversations. -

Right here. -You lying sack of sh_t. And this guy.... Like hell it is.... You asked who had "my endorsement" My answer was: You have to realize that there are ALOT of players in this theatre... -Especially in Germany which had a sizeable immigrant population without the refugees. If you think only one perspective is valid, then go ahead and pick your team. 1)Because they aren't going to deport them all... 2)Many of the "invaders" are already citizens or legal residents of the host country. This is a done deal... Europe can't go back. -Only forward. -

You must not be a serious person then, because you're still here. And, I might add, still butt-hurt because I scalded your sanitized, redacted, nonsensical, account of European history. Relax. -Tom's horsesh_t, Disney account of the Atlantic slave trade wasn't much better. No one likes being de-bunked. Anyone willing to work toward the center... That's where Europe is right now.... All refugees in Germany, and Scandinavia won't suddenly be Repatriated. The North African Muslims in France aren't going anywhere. -The north/west/central African immigrants in Italy will always have a presence there... Right-Left political extremes are silly in my opinion... It should be a discussion, where everyone should be prepared to give up something. Hopefully that would make groups like the EDL, Five-star Movement, and PEGIDA obsolete one day. What does that even mean? -

I'm not of the opinion that it can be "stopped" as you put it.. Only "managed" and perhaps dealt with by new rules... First, I think people have to step up and insist that something went wrong... Finding a balance should be a product of this heated debate... The alternative could be violent conflict. -Which nobody wants. -

The smugglers have more resources at their disposal than the U.S. gives them credit for.... They've uncovered well-lit air-conditioned, tunnels complete with rail systems spanning the border... Lo-tech catapults that hurl drugs over portions of wall... A wall, in my opinion, is a totally wasteful expenditure. The very first order of business for the next democratic administration will be to demo any completed portion of Trumps wall. Even if he completes it, it's probably doomed. There are other ways being discussed here that I think would be far more effective. -

Except the people who hire illegals might just be YOU. Domestic maids, migrant farmworkers, and landscape laborers make up a significant portion of the undocumented. I think jail could be appropriate for repeat hiring offenders, but a fine usually does the trick. A no more than 3% tax on foreign remittances also seems fair. -

A simple wall is a waste of money that isn't going to work... Especially, If we're talking about the southern Border of the U.S... -Even if the damn thing gets finished you could put holes in a wall, -tunnel under it, -or scale the damn thing.... All tactics the cartels and human smugglers currently use to circumvent walls already in place. It's also worth mentioning that many of the future undocumented arrive by plane, or cross the border legally with B-1 or B-2 visas that go "out of status" when they fail to return home. There's petition process for that, but many just don't bother with it. -

Three months ago, a girl who works with us got T-boned by a drunk, undocumented alien who ran a light... No insurance, but somehow, the guy had a licence. I thought that was pretty f__ked up. Common-sense approaches to immigration, that put the citizen's welfare at the forefront of any discussions are being abandoned. -Why would anyone think abandoning common sense to be a good idea, either here or in Europe?
