  1. dmike3507  There is no way to do an accurate comparison as all businesses are different and require different staffing. As with most changes, the larger corporations can adjust, the smaller businesses tend to fail. Thus Walmart.

  2. Let's just end this semantic game because that's all it is. These types of camps exist all over the world with similar or way worse conditions. So either all interment camps are concentration camps(areas where large populations are "concentrated") or all concentration camps are internment camps. It's just a label. Go ahead and choose one for all and leave your hypocrisy at the door. OR we can cut to the chase here and say exactly what AOC is suggesting, that these are death camps. Places where specific ethnic groups are being purged. Well go ahead and try to prove that. The conditions may not be pristine but with the amount of traffic, the fact that the Dems would not allow funding and the fact that it was the Obama admin that cut funding originally...what do you expect? Especially from people whose answer to this problem is to show "compassion". Whatever that entails. If it's anything like the way Clinton showed compassion when he withdrew US and UN forces prior to the Rwandan genocide to spare the USA any embarrassment like during the battle of Mogadishu....

  3. What good does protesting do? It's definitely not as effective as voting or running for office. The Alabama bill was sponsored and signed into law by women and many of the men ran for office on a pro life platform, stop blaming anyone but yourselves at this point.

  4. Okay let's see if the last few years of media painting Trump as a Russian asset or whatever they could spin will change the American psyche against him.

  5. Don't worry the Russians did it.

  6. Lowell has it right, you need to do a little brushing up on your political theory.

  7. They have been doing this since early 2000s, they did it for the G20 in Toronto as well etc. Oh and surprise....federal law enforcement has been in every major US city for decades!!!!

  8. Does she think that communism would be different? China is a mess, the former USSR the same. If we believe the rhetoric of "less than 12 years" and act accordingly, does anyone understand the implications of what will happen? Go ahead and follow the green new deal and shut down most carbon burning processes and with nothing to replace them the world will grind to a halt. There will be mass starvation, loss of power and industry and then the economy will collapse. The problem is humans, both economic models created the same problem.

  9. uhhh is there some comparison ideology that doesn't include Cuba, China or N Korea? Is there a country that does not protect property rights? The only historical difference is property is not granted by a Monarch or held by personal force. And damage to property is damage to the individual, either by halting their means to provide a livelihood or as a means to protect against the elements.

  10. The cops were called because of him, he was the domestic dispute. En route the police were advised of a warrant for 3ed degree sexual assault so they arrested him. He resisted, fought back, pulled out a knife, at the point he put his hands in the vehicle he signed his death warrant, same as a white guy. So yeah go on defending a domestic abusing rapist that not only went to his Ex's home unwanted and left his children unattended but also put them in danger by leading men with guns to the car the were in. You might ask yourself...where was he going? Or what was he doing? Well he was under arrest so it was either to get a weapon or flee and both would have endangered the children further. Yeah so go on and admit your low IQ and keep supporting the racist narrative. It was his life or the cops and children, fuck that guy.

  11. In what country are kits not scarce, medical teams not overworked? And benefits can't be compared between economies easily.

  12. What does he mean by "being put on the front lines of climate change"? And how is climate change being kept to specific areas of New York? What? Let's dispel this. Rising sea levels is one of the major impacts of CC and guess who owns most beach front property? Wealthy people. Anyway, this suit will go nowhere even if they had grounds to base it on.

  13. No it will bring down the global economy only reducing emissions reduces emissions.

  14. Fafner888  Is there proof they are "occupying the whole of Crimea"? And if so, is it was they wish or is it at the behest of the Crimean Parliament? FWIW the situation in Crimea is quite different than the one in Okinawa. And Okinawa is not Japan as Crimea is not Ukraine.
    1
  15. Fafner888  Mention of them invading is all over the news as they gloss over the fact that there were already troops and bases in Crimea. No video of them crossing a border, nothing but troops obviously on alert because of a coup plus anti Russian sentiment. The photos of troops on bases is nothing. Talk of troops along the border of Russia is also ignoring every other countries border protections. And Crimea is not NYC nor is it Okinaawa FFS. Here is a hint for you. Cuban missile crisis. In order to obtain trust they showed the public proof via satellite imagery. Have you seen any nice present day Hi res photos of troops crossing borders or saturating Crimea? I bet they have 360º video coverage

  16. Fafner888  I asked for clear evidence and you can either provide it or not, saying there is evidence without it being available is a conspiracy theory. And again, according to our "unbiased" press, the autonomous parliament of Crimea has asked for their support so what is there left to say? Citing a known technology over 50 years in the past is not a theory.

  17. Fafner888  Until you prove said claims they are only claims. There were many claims of secret police, rape troops and warehouses full of Viagra in Libya but they were just that, claims. And I don't need to claim the press is lying as they are telling half truths like occupying "bases" and "buildings" that are unspecified or are not properly explained. Seriously dude, if there are sooo many reporters and so much super tech to spy on us you might think they would have some juicy footage instead of a bunch of troops standing around. So far I have not made any claim outside I need something tangible, go figure this is conspiracy talk to some.

  18. Paul Hsieh  There isn't one military power in the world that would leave operations and civilians in a foreign country unprotected. Not to mention the Crimean Parliament has asked for the help.

  19. Andres Olmedo  Wow I guess I could ask you to reread the comment you either misunderstood or are now grossly misrepresenting or I guess I could explain it to you and how it's different but I think I will do something more enjoyable, like give myself an enema.

  20. Duh?

  21. Keepskatin  Stand your ground was not used in the Zimmerman case and not effective here.

  22. Keepskatin  He was arrested and released on bail. There is no charge until the investigation in this case since it was inconclusive what happened  and the defense never used it. There is also the classic self defense law which prevented them from charging prior to investigation and is what the defense used. Stand your ground has been used by young black men as well.

  23. shirehorse91  That is not an explanation. And sorry but Hamas doesn't have the budget.

  24. shirehorse91  Obviously you do not want to appear intelligent.

  25. shirehorse91  That's a funny name for a hospital.

  26. shirehorse91 I was the 1st one actually, not to be mistaken for your pointless thread.

  27. Paul Hsieh   If you have a link to satellite imagery showing Russian troops crossing into Ukraine you can post it here. Showing Russian troops in Crimea is dishonest since they were already there.

  28. *****  You need to do that preemptively at the local police ball and fundraiser.

  29. James Hoover   Missing from that war and your comment are the Palestinians.

  30. Sorry but if he could rip out needles and tubes from his nose then he could rip them from his ass...perhaps next time restrain the uncooperative patient as they do in hospitals?

  32. thatsnotagoodidea  A revolution is not a guarantee the people victories are in any way representative of the people. They also tried to pass a law restricting the use of Russian language. They also want Crimea which has it's own democratic parliament. And although Yanukovych is a jerk, I don't think any war crimes have occurred.

  33. It all seems reasonable until you remember this whole thing started because they were broke.
    1
  34. thatsnotagoodidea   The reasons are multifold but include loans and the ever present Ukraine/Russian oligarch tug of war.  Of course every government is responsible for the economic woes of its country but that is the point here, it was already known. So they expected 0 money and found 70 billion of that 0 was missing...ergo bullshit
    1
  35. thatsnotagoodidea  But we really have no comparison here, just a country in economic ruin leading to a country in turmoil.
    1
  36. thatsnotagoodidea  What money? They were broke, that means 0. We have no ledger of the official accounts before and after since there was no audit until after. How does anyone steal 70 billion without a trace and why wait and make it obvious lol

  37. thatsnotagoodidea  This is now a circular argument.

  38. thatsnotagoodidea  It is, we are back to the beginning with an accusation and little else.

  39. kurtilein3  Fairly certain I didn't mention anything about "Muslims"....yup nothing at all.

  40. ModernWorldProblems The same police car trick was used in Toronto during the G20. They left the cars, formed a line a block away and just let the mayhem happen.

  41. *****  Pretty much, things are like that worldwide right now.

  42. IamMANnumber1  It's because they are and were the number one economy in the EU. Even before they joined they were a powerhouse and their dollar has suffered because of the union, not the other way around.

  43. IamMANnumber1  Sorry but these things are out of the hands of "Germany" and in the hands of transnational groups.

  44. IamMANnumber1  Nope. Brussels calls the shots.
    1
  45. IamMANnumber1  The one where Merkel and all the other "EU leaders" have no real power.
    1
  46. IamMANnumber1  One article doesn't paint the whole truth, especially when played against the official EU line which was the thrift lol. Because that was BS as well. The truth is the crisis was created by bankers and put on the backs of the people.
    1
  47. IamMANnumber1  Sorry but Merkel is not in charge of the EU.

  48. deathtokoalas  Wow do you people ever learn history? Most of Europe's historical woes are attributed elsewhere.
    1
  49. deathtokoalas  Dude it's like saying Europe is not Norway, Sweden, England, France, the Netherlands, Austria etc...all descendants of Germanic tribes. It's like saying Western Germany is Eastern France or vice versa. You are looking at an orgy and finding a few parts you don't like without recognizing the attaching parts. Meanwhile the Romans, the Turks, , The Brits, The Russians, THE GREAT GAME, the(insert name)....

  50. deathtokoalas "Europe" is a relatively new concept, not one to be assigned 2000 years of existence. "Germany" was "Germania". the majority of what we call Europe today, the rest was Rome. So what is your point? That most of the original Germanic tribes that went on to become present day Europe because of a migration somehow tried to conquer itself? Technically the Visigoths would be attacking Rome not Europe. And technically Rome was the biggest aggressor. "Germania" was fairly consistent for about 1500 years regardless of it's name. The rest was Rome, or what was left of it after they fell and "other". The East is another matter. Anyway, you are still missing how everyone was trying to conquer everything..."everything" meaning what used to be Rome/Germania.
