I live just outside of Buffalo. Say what you will about it, it isn't the most glamourous city, and we get a lot of snow, but it really is, statistically speaking, not a city riddled with violent crime, and for the most part pretty safe and people are mostly descent around here. Yes, every city has it's crime and it's sections you stay away from, and we are no exception, but this kind of thing just doesn't happen here. It's a shame it took an outsider to come in here and commit this heinous act. But this just goes to show you that anything can happen anywhere, no matter how safe you think your community is, all it takes is one bad individual passing through, or in this case oddly enough targeting this specific area. Yes, it is well understood it was racially motivated, but strange he didn't go to a much closer area like Syracuse or Binghamton or Elmira, which all have large minority communities as well. I think we may find out some interesting developments as time goes on here in terms of motives and why this specific location was chosen.

I am an accountant and have hundreds of clients of all walks of life and professions. I will tell you the professions of the several of my highest wage earning clients. Superintendent of Schools (requires college), Highway Superintendent (does not require college), Car salesman (does not require college), Collection agent (does not require college) Residential Construction (does not require college) Physician Assistant (requires college), Information Technology products salesman (does not require college, only product training). Yes that's right, the majority of my highest earning clients are not college graduates. Not in the top top earners, but fairly high also is a Diesel mechanic client of mine, who makes well over $100K a year. These people all make more than me and I have a Master's degree. I am not saying you CAN'T make high wages with a college degree, just that you CAN without one, and in the right field and with the right skills can often do better.

Maybe it's just me, but I want a few liberals on Fox. I want criticism of the President, even if it unfair, so it can be exposed as such, but if it is fair, well fair is fair. I love President Trump, but he is not infallible. I disagreed with President Obama 99% of the time, but in that 1% of the time he did right in my view, he deserved credit for it. I don't want an echo chamber. We already have that in CNN and MSNBC. For them, Trump can do no right and Obama could do no wrong. I don't care for Cavuto, but I wouldn't want him gone, either. I want people that will challenge my viewpoint. That's what separates us from the left, they don't want a challenge, they just want to cram their ideas down your throat and force feed them to you. We need to be better than that. Let them speak their piece, and then we, as conservatives, can deconstruct it critically. Tucker is the master at that. He has always featured many left wing guests, let's them rant on about their opinion, then picks it apart to their face and exposes their stupidity and bias. And both Tucker, and O'Reilly when he was around, would be critical of the Republican party when warranted, and I think that is good. I have been a registered Republican ever since I was 18, but I don't agree with everything they do. To truly be balanced is to feature all viewpoints, even if some of them are garbage, and even if the people expressing them are garbage. Debate is good for everyone. I don't want an echo chamber, in the same sense that if I am shopping for a new car, I don't go to that vehicles fan forum for reviews, I go to Edmunds or Kelly, I watch the test drive on Motorweek, I want an unbiased review. CNN and MSNBC are the Democrat party's fan forum in that sense. I don't want Fox to be the same for the Republicans. That's the problem with people in general now. Nobody wants their opinions to be challenged. I do. It makes you think more critically. Personally, I don't find it interesting seeing a bunch of like minded people all sitting around patting each other on the back.

Ivy league schools are basically like giant networking events. It's name value. It's driving a BMW for the badge on the hood when a Chevy will get you to where you are going just as well. Yes, that BMW badge, or Harvard degree might get you noticed and open up a door you may not have had otherwise, but at what expense? Nothing is guaranteed. A friend of mine who has a 4-year state school degree that took him 5 years and he passed by the skin of his teeth with a "C" average makes more money now than practically everyone else I know combined. Why? Because he just happened to meet the right guy, who was starting up a niche business, that took off like a rocket, and my friend got in on the ground floor, made a few big sales early on, and is getting paid big commissions in perpetuity on those accounts. Yes, he is an exception to the rule. But more often you hear of the people who spend hundreds of thousands to get that "big name" University degree that don't amount to any more than that other person who went to community college, but now they are strapped with big debt for many years to come, and the community college graduate paid off his student expenses in a few years.

I am 110% a supporter of President Trump. That said, I have no problem with Fox News being critical of him as long as it is fair criticism. I also have no problem with Fox having a few liberal contributors and hosts, and interviewing Democrats from time to time. Being overly biased to the right is no better than CNN and MSNBC being overly biased to the left. My feeling is that you can just be balanced, give all opinions a shot, and that the conservative viewpoint will still prevail on its own merits. As conservatives we don't need to be biased and/or deceptive like the left in order for our ideas to win support, because most of our ideas are logical and work on their own. So please, continue to show both sides, be critical of both, and give credit when due. We will still prevail, and in the process, give the left one less thing to moan about when they say "Fox is biased".

America has always been great. Yeah, we had our dark moments...slavery, interment camps, President Carter, President Obama...but hey, can't hit a home run every time you go to bat. Even during the dark times of Obama, I still loved my country...(I just love it a little more now 😁)...but that's what separates us from the far left. We love our country, bumps, bruises, and all...but they hate the country because it doesn't follow THEIR view of how things should be. They are kind of like that 3 year old child that takes his toys and goes home, and says he hates his best friend, because his best friend wouldn't play the games he wanted to play.

Learn a trade, or take non-college training classes for a variety of professions such as sales, tax preparation, insurance, or many other "white collar" professions that don't actually require college. If you really feel you must go, go to community college. I learned much more there than I did in years 3 and 4 at University, as well as in my graduate program. Funny now I do taxes and not only have earnings equal or better (depending on how well I do in a particular season) than in my "college required" jobs of the past, but I like the job better, and work less hours annually (I work a ton January to April, then very minimally the rest of the year). And I could have got this job with no college and just a few training courses that are equivalent to maybe 9 college credit hours. Yeah, I was exempt from having to take the classes because of my accounting background, but I took 160 credit hours only to find myself better off in a job that requires only the equivalent of 9.

AOC is a very bad representative of her generation. I myself am generation X, but I have alot of millennial friends. It's a slow process, but many are turning around and seeing reality as they get older. People on the right are all concerned with the latest polls about patriotism, religion, and such. But those are authorities, religion and the state. When have young people ever liked authority? Most will grow up, but not all. The left will continue to target the younger generations just like they always have, because they know that their viewpoint is emotional, and younger people tend to be more emotional and less logical. But they grow up. Yes, they have worked this generation harder than any in the past, but I still have hope for the country. At the end of the day, the United States is still a mostly capitalist, demand economy, freedom loving, anti authoritarian country, and will remain so, no matter how much the extremists try to ruin it.

Nobody respects anything when they don't have to earn it. They just complain more and more that what they are given for free isn't enough. They expect equal results over equal opportunity, which is exactly why many in this younger generation cry about free college and loan forgiveness because their $100K degrees didn't get them the dream job they expected would automatically be handed to them. The participation trophy generation (PTG) hasn't had to earn anything. So why would they respect anything? Including their own country. No, instead, their country is evil because they don't provide enough free things and guaranteed outcomes for them. Government is an extension of mom and dad. When mom and dad make you earn your way in life, you respect them, and yourself, and others. When mom and dad give you everything, you expect more and complain when you don't get it. The PTG wants a government that is just an extension of mom and dad. Cradle to grave coddling. They see countries like Denmark and Sweden and others with big social welfare systems...but choose to ignore all the other problems those countries have (many created by the system itself), and ignore the difference in demographics and just plain way of life there. No, the United States is not Sweden. It never will be, and it never should be.

@fzrniko lol, my friend got his MBA and bragged to everyone about how he was going to be a big corporate officer at his company. Yeah, he got canned a few months later and now makes sales calls in a cubicle for about $30K a year. I manage an accounting and tax office. Yeah, I actually have a Master's degree as well, mine in economics, but that's not what got me the job. I quit my old job and started at the bottom at my current company, which required zero college and didn't care that I had college, and started me off at the same lousy wage as everyone else. Two years in and I am running a location. Been doing that now for another two years. Got there because I am good at what I do, not because of some piece of paper. One of our other managers who has a higher volume location and makes quite a bit more than me has a high school diploma, that's it. Maybe if my big shot friend who got his master's before anyone else I know did gets canned again, he can come work for me. Maybe your son can too. We start at $15 an hour. No extra pay for college degrees. Interested? Probably a better way to pay off those big student loans than serving coffee at Starbucks for $9.50 an hour.
