You should meet yourself.

You don’t post those anymore (you used to until I beat you up over ridiculous lies and suppositions about Biden with proven facts about Trump, once again proving the accusation is an admission) because there’s absolutely zero evidence of any such thing, but tons and tons of payoffs, multiple unreported hidden secret foreign Trump “bribe me here” accounts including but not limited to unreported accounts in Azerbaijan, Brazil, Canada, China, Dominican Republic, Georgia, Grenada, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Israel, Mexico, Panama, Philippines, Puerto Rico, Qatar, South Korea, Saint Martin, Saint Vincent, Turkey, United Arab Emirates and United Kingdom, actual trades and offers to trade personal payments/favors to Trump/fam for stolen top secret classified documents PROVEN against Trump, and multiple actual trials against him for criminal abuses of office, absolutely nothing against Biden besides ridiculous whining liars, like you.

I would say you should stop looking stupid, but you are what you are…with you it’s not a “look”.

Everything I posted is fact, court filings and actual reporting of what those involved said (with no opinion added).
Remember, you recently posted gleefully about the one Democrat ACCUSED of having child porn…no conviction there…why jump the gun? Why can’t you ever wait until news is “real”….or is the definition of “real” or the “rule” different for you than everyone else…or can you dish it out but are way too thin skinned to take it? *ding ding ding ding

Tell me what isn’t legit. I double dog dare you….can’t call you a tool, tools are useful. You are a fool, and a willing one.

I know you wish I would stop rubbing your party’s constant, unbelievable, history making criminality in your face daily…but more is prosecuted and more are convicted daily, more top Republicans are convicted in $60 million bribery schemes, more go on the run from the law daily, more terrorist Maggots are fleeing to Belarus and Russia to avoid extradition daily. Certainly you want to know what your team is up to/dragging you into.

@jimnms - link for your last para?
Meanwhile, I think you're missing the point: http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/07/22/america-is-a-violent-coun
try/
Over to you and your next move: the 'data must be wrong' argument.


Here's your source, and it didn't come out of my ass like Bill's shit.

What point I'm missing? Your linked article doesn't mention guns anywhere, it shows that America is more violent than other advanced countries, which is even more of reason to carry a gun for self defense. I think you're the one missing the point.

Ninety percent of violent crimes are committed by persons not carrying handguns. This is one reason why the mere brandishing of a gun by a potential victim of violence often is a sufficient response to a would-be attacker. In most cases where a gun is used in self-defense, it is not fired. Can the average citizen be trusted to judge accurately when he or she is in jeopardy?...

A nationwide study by Don Kates, the constitutional lawyer and criminologist, found that only 2 percent of civilian shootings involved an innocent person mistakenly identified as a criminal. The 'error rate' for the police, however, was 11 percent, more than five times as high." [source]

Of course, it is not surprising that where there are more guns, there tends to be more gun-related deaths, but northern Latin America (Brazil in particular) breaks from this trend in a major way. The area has a massive homicide by firearm rate, with some of the lowest rates of gun ownership in the world and the highest homicides by firearm count...

Brazil, Columbia, Venezuela and Ecuador combine for more homicides by firearm than Mexico, the United States, South Africa, the Philippines, Honduras, Guatemala, India, El Salvador, Dominican Republic, Bangladesh, Argentina and Jamaica put together. That is every other country with over 1,000 homicides by firearm. You would imagine that gun control would be very lax in the area, but as the top chart here illustrates, that is not the case. Brazil, for example, has roughly 255 million fewer guns (and about 115 million fewer people) than the United States and a much more strict and effective set of firearm regulations. So, while it is true that where there are guns, there is gun violence, that is clearly not the only determining factor. [source]

He wants the press to respect the privacy of his family, which is fine, but don't forget that you're the one who threw them in the spotlight with this whole ridiculous inter-continental affair, asshole. In other words I believe he's on the verge of demonizing the "liberal media" with the hopes of deflecting blame from himself.

The poor, poor fellow. Maybe Senator Ensign and he should go on a retreat together to reflect on their cheating ways. Rush Limbaugh probably could point them to a few good places in the Dominican Republic.

Though it may exist, I'm not aware of any post-colonial nation founded by the previously enslaved or greatly oppressed that has grown economically powerful. Sure, there are examples where members of the 'master class' succeeded from an empire to found a new nation, but that is a very different situation.

As far as tropical nations go, the Dominican Republic may be far better off than Haiti, but there, it was wealthy land owners that seized the country from the Spanish. In Haiti, inconsistent French policy on the position of slaves in the colonies enabled Haitian slaves to stage a successful revolt. The countries had very different starting points.

Colonialism would be an nonviable practice if it's central purpose was anything other than exploiting the natural wealth of colonized lands and the hard work of colonized people. That, however, doesn't mean that all colonized peoples start from the same place. To ignore history and to argue that many liberated African peoples are suffering today because of their own ineptitude is sheer ignorance.

in 1789, Black Haitians inherited the most profitable and vibrant economy in Central/South America, the most modern infrastructure and equipment and the full support of one of the most powerful nations (France). They brought the country to this.

They ruined their nation only to have it rebuilt by foreigners in 1915, 1958 and 1994.

On the very same island (Hispaniola), the Dominican Republic is a relatively prosperous and certainly not subsisting on dirt patties.

Haiti is a prime example of African incompetence and failure.

Farhad:

you answered my question and, to be honest, it was not what I expected. Your answer tells me that your perspective is respectable. So, if I may, allow me to take another look at your comment:

I'm too am sorry that we don't occupy places like Bermuda or New Zealand. I'd reenlist for 10 years in a heartbeat if we did =P. I think that's completely besides the point, however.

Dont claim most of my Battalion holds that view? Who do you think knows the members of my Battalion better, me or you? I'll give you a hint: one of us has lived, ate, worked, bonded, fought, and bled with them for a very, very long time. One of us has not.

You are right, I sympathize greatly with countries such as Afghanistan because they are not afforded the luxuries that I am. Especially the children. They are born into it. They don't have a choice.

look, i'm not a bullshitter. I spent a long time there. i didnt like it. i DID it because it was my job. I didnt like most of the people there, mostly government officials. If my negative view of it offends your delicate sensibilites, I apologize.



>> ^Farhad2000:
Oh please smooman, am sorry that the US military deems it more important to invade shitty bronze age nations and bomb them back to the stone age, instead of you know the Dominican republic.
And don't claim that 90% of your brigade has this view, maybe unlike you they realize that while you may be there for a shitty deployment these people have to live there, and don't have the opportunity to return to the cushy suburban lives away from disease, death, poverty and starvation they have to deal with for the rest of their lives.
You represent the very worst of the United States Military. I don't care what your skills are and how many rounds you put down the firing range or your qualifications. You lack any kind of perspective.

Leave Sarah Palin alone! She's my hero.

Upvote for Vin Diesel, but otherwise I have no idea at all what this trailer is about. Hijacking/blasting a truck with 1.4 million USD worth of petrol (didn’t anybody bother to adapt the script to the current situation, how many gallons is that nowadays?) in the Dominican Republic...?
