    c'mon.  I thought we were having a break thru meaningful discussion.  I'm not for reparations but I think some forms of affirmative action are fine.  Blacks have been disadvantaged socioeconomically by design for the duration of this country's existence.  Wasn't that long ago that Jim Crow laws were in place.

     

    On a larger note, we live in the richest country in the world.  The standard of living for the middle is better than just about anywhere else.  Definitely in the top 10%.  So burning it down is stupid in my opinion.  Voting should be how changes are enacted, not violence by any group.

     

    using it as a example. blacks have had a socially economic disadvantage. i have no issue with certain types of affirmitive action in regards to you had a bad hand in life then a little boost is fine..but not on race alone. tons of PEOPLE need help. when it comes to race. white people dont exist yet are put into a group. are italians white? were they not subjected to racism? irish are as white as they get (i should know) yet were slaves! did your immigrant grandparents have some kind of advantage...prob not even speaking the language and yet you are not poor? howed that happen. i grew up in a predominantly black community and i can attest i faced alot more racism and bloody noses then any of my black friends. so like i said. there is nothing preventing anyone with white guilt or any other bs identity politics from doing what they want with their wealth or material belongings. do what you want and dont scream at others they should be forced to do the same because for the most part its being judged ONLY on color of skin. that is the definition of racism friend and i will never be apart of that way of thinking.

    I'm certainly skeptical and there are scoundrels on both sides.  I want them all prosecuted when they break the law.  If they don't represent the people as their highest priority, I won't vote for them or vote for the alternative that will do it more

     

    im not talking about scoundrels breaking the law. im talking about the inherent way gov will use saftey as a way to consolidate power and remove freedom from society with no problem killing its own citizens in the process. 

     

    a easy example is covid. covid patients into elderly folks home. is anyone stupid enough to think that was a honest mistake. there were real talks about rounding up people who "were not safe". police were actually ordered to kick in doors and shut down buisnesses...SELECTIVELY. all while the donor class were walking around maskless. huge corps operated as smaller competition was crushed..even with similar accommodations. come on. this was manipulated the same way it always is rich get richer middle class pays the price...for safety 

     

    9/11 patriot act..now used to spy on citizens on major scale...for saftey

     

    thats just recent. thats just this country. many more examples through history.

     

    but gun  confiscation/laws. no no we really have your saftey in mind this time. trust us. illegal gun use? yeah yeah we will get on top of that as soon as we take those evil legal ARs. mental health sure sure we will address that. just about to do it. so how many are you turning over today?

     

     

    and the ones that dont trust a word they say are the conspiracy theorists!?  sure thing.

    I've paid the same tax rates (theoretically) as billionaires for decades.  I'd be better with that if they actually paid the same percentage of income but willing to pay my share and do. In fact, I almost always vote for candidates that will raise my taxes, not because I like self mutilation but because I agree more with their positions.  Don't donate to black live matters.  Plenty of poor around here and am active in fundraising, volunteering and charity.  It feels right and good.  I have family members in law enforcement that are young, by my standards and are staying.  They want to retire early and it will be deserved.  I don't want everything to fundamentally change.  I want some changes.  I agree that education needs to be better if we are to compete globally.  And we must think globally.  I'm all for fairness but I suspect your and my definitions are very different.

     

    if your being honest then you should talk to more progressives. you know you dont need to vote or do anything to give more money to the government. enough of you get on board with large portions of your income and you no longer have to fight and argue with those who would rather keep their money or dont believe in the same causes. its always we and never i. feel bad about your historical ancestors and slavery? by all means hand over the keys to your house to a person you feel had his land taken.

     

    nothing is stopping any of this.

    Many rural areas including mine don't have public transport.  The closest mini mart to me is 2 miles.  I can walk it but not on a regular basis for essentials.  We do lots of delivery tho and the something great that came out of covid.  I do suspect even Wal mart (where we usually grocery shop online) has increased prices to compensate but it's worth it.  If i could, i'd love too not have a car.  So much wasted money and time.  but right now, not feasible.  Don't drink $& coffees and the price of avocados would be unchanged if MAGA was in charge.  there is a near monopoly.

     

    the point is selective outrage. noone is talking or outraged by the amount of innocent lives taken by automobiles.  there are many things that kill people but we just go on with life in a free society that is inherently more dangerous. you name it people have most likely died from it. should the gov prosecute people with pools because idiots fell asleep with small children near them? on and on and on we can go. nothing is necessary when it comes to saftey. you have feet or a bicycle. 5 kids died in a driving accident..dont you care!!! its not hard to do especially when illegal gun use is flat out ignored. if liberals want to live in a bubble wrapped gov controlled society id suggest going to a authoritarian one that will be more then happy to monitor your every move and make sure you dont do a single thing it deems unsafe.

    Cars are a necessity. Assault weapons are not 

     

    they are? i could of sworn we have a thing called mass transit public transportation that could take millions of cars off the road and let pappa gov take the wheel. no the real reason you haven't advocated for that is because it would inconveniences you personally. pretty much the same story from libs. advocate/condemn things unless it burdens them. its why you all squeel about equity and human rights on phones and computers that you know very well are made from slave labor. i dont see any of you walking around naked while eating cartel controlled avacado toast and sipping your 7 dollar coffee. 

     

    never seems to be we will be the ones to personally sacrifice. everyone else can relax. why is that? pretty sure if you guys donate your entire paychecks to causes we would see alot more action on the things you "care" about. imagine poor ghettos getting direct influx of white liberals paychecks every week. chester and his friends showing up at a crip stronghold the same way they showed up to gov buildings to demand the murder of unarmed black people end. not only will you never do that but your also fine with all those blm donations getting handed to democrat campaigns slush funds and mansions. lol things will only get fixed if you pay the gov as a middle man. but you go first. its a good way to pretend to care. why havent you all become police officers in mass..show em how its done in a kinder gentler way. why are they struggling to recruit? exactly. much easier to just sit and b!+ch about how everything needs to fundamentally change to whatever you feel at the time and if your wrong move on to the next issue.

    Duh 

    So the government should just stop doing anything? What silly point are you trying to make here? 

     

    no the point made is you should have a healthy scepticism about the real objectives of people in power. its called history. you might want to give it a quick glance. it will be facinating to see how many awful places that exist on this planet came to be. its packed with tiberius's all through time saying we can trust our gov. its there job to make us safe. those other places will never be us. whats the worst that can happen? 🤨

    when did that start?

     

    burning looting and murdering for racial harmony..keep up the good work ✊🏼. lets provide those covid patients saftey in your grandparents retirement home. science! trains and lead in water poisoning entire cities and towns. nothing to see here!  violent criminals getting a revolving door from woke DAs to create more victims in the streets. equity! fentanyl murdering thousands and children being trafficked crossing our boarder..yawn!

     

    maybe if you realize the truth of the situation your in you will also realize why so many are pretty avid that the only saftey they can count on is THEMSELVES.

    I’ve never practiced white supremacy, but my wife keeps pointing out my expanding gut and suggests that perhaps I should start…😉

     

    there is no winning. your american so its all systemic. your gut wants supremacy. you better engage in some bigoted situps. (situps can be traced back to Egyptian slave owners who did them when they fell down) so if you don't act soon your gut will colonize her side of the bed. then you will be subjected to couch segragation.

    Then you know the odds of not finding a student with a particular diagnosis that has a prevalence of 50% is the same as flipping a coin that number of times and it always coming heads.  So for 500 students, that would be 500 heads in a row.

     

    I'm not interesting in attacking you.  I'm interested in attacking lies.  Those same odds are the likelihood that you are being truthful here about students and your work with them

     

    so your saying all students are murderers and we should lock them all up!? were you hit in the head with a golfball last time out? thats CRAZY you even suggested it.

    This is a pretty concrete statement in regards to transexuals. I am pointing out that criminal actions such as those in Nashville can be due to a variety of mental disorders not to include the supposed one of being transexual alone.  In short, I don't believe all transexuals are mentally ill.  Do I need to diagram that?   Will it help?

    I was considering pulling an @sherpaand pretending I didn't understand you.  And in fact, I'm not sure I do.

     

     

    ok this is getting somewhere. inch by inch.

     

    so you dont think that people who think they are a different gender and "in the wrong body" are suffering from a mental illness? how do you differentiate then? because i gave alternate examples from the very first reply you jumped all over of other "concrete" mental disorders we all agree on..i think. anorexia schizophrenia and even asked for your examples of any other one that requires society to play along with the dillusion and introduced to small children as a effective treatment. thats what was being asked.

     

    not sure why you decided on lumping the violence in as a whole of the transgender community. i certainly did not even mention or imply that in any of my replies. so i guess i should have known you pull a argument out of thin air, shove it into the topic and wonder why i will not address and frankly confused by what your argument was for except to deflect from my points. if your going to do that then yes....you should draw diagrams.

     

    ps there is the hawk emoji i was waiting for.

    so do you agree with this @Buffarukus?  Insert the words "mentally ill" for crazy if you prefer.

     

    You don't seem to understand that the whole point of the premises is to get to the conclusion.  The conclusion IS the point.

     

    still waiting on a actual reply to my original post. im not steering this into some new direction on semantics of mental disorder and crazy. crazy isnt even medically definable and can mean something different to the person using it. your conclusion has nothing to do with what i said. every mental dillusion can come with other issues. ehats that mean to what i said?

     

    i got all day to wait for you to address the topic/examples i brought up but my hopes of a actual response are not high 3 replies in.

    you seem to have confused me with @Chris farley.  So let's diagram the argument:

    1.  Transexuals exist

    2. Some believe that their sexuality alone is a mental disorder

    3.  transsexuals can have more widely recognized mental disorders such as psychoses.

    Conclusion:  whether or not transsexuality is truly a mental disorder in and of itself, transsexuals can in fact be crazy

    So, pick it apart and tell me where I'm wrong

     

    1 transsexuals exist. true

     

    2 thinking you are somthing you are not IS a mental disorder. im not sure why thats even controversial. if i beleive im a woman how is that any different then thinking im fat..when im skinny..anorexia. thinking everyones out to get me when they are not..paranoid schizophrenia. on and on.

     

    its the question i asked and you replied with nothing but namecalling.

     

    3. mental disorders and "crazy" are 2 different things. you injecting your own prognosis.

     

    my point is why is this mental disorder the ONLY one where people think feeding into the afflicted dillusion and getting life altering surgury is the correct approach to helping the person and every other one requires treatment for THE INDIVIDUAL to accept that its not reality. i gave examples of how that thinking would HURT the person afflicted and definitely should not be pushed onto children in secrecy from parents.

     

    these are legitimate questions. just because it hurts you virtue doesnt change that. your virtue will not help a person who was confused at a young age..given gender surgery and meds and grows up realizing they were only gay and can NEVER change what was done. 

     

    i said nothing about trans not existing. i said nothing about hate or lack of empathy. i said we should treat it the same as every other mental disorder and your flying off your rocker about getting dropped as a baby.

    • If you have to dig this hard for a grievance to support your persecution syndrome, maybe your grievances are weak...

    Yes, because transsexuality and mental illness can't be present simultaneously...were you dropped on your head as a baby?   but keep it up. any neutral observer can now see that you guys are nuts.  thrown to the dustbin of history with the Branch Davidians.

     

    the hell are you talking about? respond to what i said directly and stop being a emotional name calling mess. this isnt digging hard at all. its a direct comparison to other mental disorders, surguries and how leftists think society reacts to ONLY this particular one. 

     

    there is absolutely nothing you can say that disputes what i said and i expect you to ignore this comment or talk about anything except the subject i raise...again. here comes the i dont have anything to say hawk emoji. 🙄

    I have a sinking feeling Beane is going MLB with one of the first two picks, but I just could not bring myself to predict it. 

     

    i dont understand this? its the biggest hole we have and the mlb is the qb of the D. even more important when it comes to a D that stays in nickle as a base and our top opponent main threat is a te that kills opponents over the middle. so why not draft high quality unless you feel other players are off the charts better then any mlb? 

  14. imagine if we treated all mental disorders the way they want gender dysphoria to be treated.

     

    and yes. thinking you are something you are not is a mental disorder. 

     

    example

     

    little girl why aren't you eating? anorexia? well yes even though your uncomfortably skinny i do see the love handles you see. by all means lets get you gastral intestine surgury right away. we can't let your mind fully develop before altering your life forever. hold that thought while i post how rex inclusive i am. any other children skip a meal? great! well you are anorexic too..dont tell your parents. alot of people want to erase you.

     

    so should we start a list? the ones we all should embrace and the ones we shouldn't? im not sure there is a single one that goes on the embrace side.

    the great news is that if the DA did hold video evidence that ultimately got him out of prison im sure he can/will sue and we all can pay for the corruption as whoever responsible gets shuffled to a new highly paid position.

    That alone doesn't fix it when parents teach kids to blast shotguns from the hip and laugh when their spouse falls from the recoil of a double barrel 12 gauge load of buck shot.  Other than that, I agree.

     

    its a two tier system. people need to have a serious change in respect for what a fire arm is and what it is ultimately capable of inflicting on people. im just as tired of the parent leaving loaded guns by their bedside "accident" stories as i am of the criminal murder who was previously caught illegal carrying out on some bond or parole for the umpteenth time having another opportunity. if im asking for harsher sentances so people are petrified to carry guns illegally then i also have to be for negligence charges for those who legally own guns but are not responsible with that right and a system with huge cracks that allow mentally unstable to aquire them.

     

    both sides shovel responsible legal owners into the conversation they shouldn't be.

    Impossible to tell as it's impossible to measure what laws on the books now have kept guns from "the bad guys."

     

    doesnt that answer the question. in highly regulated democratic cities we should be seeing major decreases in gun violence. they are pretty good indicators what they may prevent. as of now noone feels safer in gun control states. thst should be enough to draw a conclusion on effectiveness.

     

    well i put in another thread the first step is to prosecute ILLEGAL gun carry to the fullest extent. NATIONALLY. anyone wishing to carry a gun outside the home illegally should be terrified of getting caught, let alone using one in a crime. instead we have appearance tickets and people routinley walking out of jail with no real consequence. just avoid pulling the trigger in certain areas and its routine. yet gang violence, stray bullets, gun being the first go response to aggression in our society and culture. 

     

    what fixes that besides bringing the hammer down on the crime before it can happen aka bring a SLEDGE hammer down on violent criminals that routinely have no issue walking around with a gun in their pocket or its just a waiting game as they go back into their communities to obtain another one to terrorize or worse the next victim. 

     

    you can take all guns from people and all your left with is criminals that never cared about laws in the first place and still have gov officials that seem ok with slapping those people on the wrist. waiting to see them again under more tragic circumstances. are they trying to raise rates to make a better argument for universal gun control? at this point, after seeing the usual rap sheets of murders. sure seems like it.

     

    so we can ultimately take "assualt weopons" or more from law abiding citizens. THEN and only THEN will leftists finally realize there's still gun violence. like i said, the regulated states haven't taught that lesson. hey we need to stop gun violence, we should get alot tougher on illegal carry! because there is nowhere else to turn or blame at that point. all i want to know is why are they waiting as lives are lost RIGHT NOW? id like someone to answer that. that wont prevent the tragedy we just saw but it would save ALOT of others.

    What you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this forum is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

     

    ill simplify 4 u.

     

    hey dems!!! prosecute illegal carry and violent criminals and you can save lives! TODAY! including children's! do that before screaming about trying to take peoples rights away!

     

    the end.

     

    need further simplification? 

     

    here is a moving picture that kinda shows my point to help you. its in chi...goose. is that your backyard? many many more just like this. they never hit your radar but have gone on to take lives that you don't even think about while your watching old adam sandler movies to quote.

  19. it would be more impactful if the dems could clean up the gun violence in their back yards before they deem they have any sort of solution to give. they not only don't, but they have now made a revolving door for ILLEGAL fire arm carry.. because they are super serious about ending gun violence. just stick it in someones face and do what you want without pulling the trigger and youll be out after the weekend to do it again....if your even caught. how much gun violence is caused by repeat violent offenders? ALOT!

     

    so the truth is dems want to take guns from LEGAL gun owners. to do what? so they can have a larger segment to slap on the wrists?

     

    so be it. hey everyone turn in your gun and just carry illegally. sure youll get a appearance ticket if ever caught but save alot of money on carry permits and legally registering ect..it will be a wash.

     

    see what their next idea is.

     

    prob harsher sentances for illegal carry. which they could be saving lives right now with but refuse to.... interesting.

     

    so whats the goal again?
