I really don't care if people disagree with me.  My husband disagrees with me on lots of issues.  Life would be pretty boring is we all agreed all the time.

I know this solely because of my own experience and judgement...
BO and I disagree on many things, it' one of the MANY reasons why I have such high regard for her

she and I each have our own subjective truth, but because of the depth of our life experiences
and the understanding this has created within us
we can see the truth in the subjective truth that others have, and how it's part of a "bigger truth"


Then I shall sit comfortably watching you wallow in your version of the 'truth'. With or without meds.

Life is funny in that way. So entertain me as you seem not to have much of anything else to do with your life these days.

Intriguing! Please indulge as you seem to not have much else to do with your life these days than be on a campaign to tell everyone, unlike you, they have no life...( :P) Your constant presence here, understated as that may be, have been obvious for everyone that you have all day/night/weeks at your command, and seemingly the rest of your well-planned, fruitful, happy married life, man.  :-X

We won't need to keep count of your ensuing posts either because you know I know that you know there's really no there there. Reality sux that way.

So yeah, have at it cowboy. Impress us.

You keep banging on about this. The votes done. Learn to live with it.

Says YOU..


I repeat ... the vote was to leave the EU - not how we would leave and what laws we'd keep / remove

In msmob world democracy is vote and vote again till you get the result you want.

Indeed - it is amazing how you jump to such ( bollox ) conclusions - given I've repeated I agree 'we' just voted to leave - but 'little' things like how to deal with the Irish border Q keep getting buried ...

This is THE point that will bite the brextremists in the ass - the circle that cannot be squared and it WILL - unless resolved - bring down the May govt

Finally, the light shines through. Nobody promised a vote on how we leave, just to leave or remain, so why do you keep repeating yourself. That was never on the table.

Despite what Mrs May says - it is... Wait and see

"This is THE point that will bite the brextremists in the ass - the circle that cannot be squared and it WILL - unless resolved - bring down the May govt"

It's not an argument ... it's a FACT ... the DUP want Brexit - but not a 'hard border' ... they can never accept that - as they will head for a melt-down if there's an election .... They will bring down Mrs May ( or whoever is the Tory leader)  to save their asses - if a 'no deal' scenario looks likely

Just in case you think Bee Farmer is fanning the flames of racial divide. Here's some interesting facts.

Most gun violence is gang violence.
http://www.nij.gov/topics/crime/gun-violence/pages/welcome.aspx#gangs
http://www.heritage.org/crime-and-justice/commentary/here-are-8-stubborn-facts-gun-violence-america

Blacks representing 13% of the US population commit more than 51% of all murders and 53% of all robberies.
http://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2015/crime-in-the-u.s.-2015/tables/table-43


This past weekend just saw another 50+ victims of black-on-black shooting in the heavily gun-regulated city of Chicago. AGAIN.


Nowhere are spokespersons from Black Lives Matter, Al Sharpton, Maxine Watters, Obama, Henry Gates and Jesse Jackson seen or heard from. Black Football players are not heard from either.

It's the perfect time to promote another gun law. I say we should make a law that says it's illegal to murder someone with a gun. I just know that law will save lives since criminals like to follow the law.

I've repeated I agree 'we' just voted to leave


Ever since the Brexit vote you've wanted to fight it, criticize it and ridicule it. You do not respect your fellow citizens. You do not have a grasp of the pulse of your nation. You've argued many times immigration wasn't an issue but I read your fellow citizens here say immigration was an issue to them. They wanted the UK to have more control over immigration but the STAY group didn't care and neither did the EU. The polls pointed to you winning so your side and the EU gambled it all and lost. If the EU granted UK more control over their future, it may have made the difference in the vote since the LEAVE won by 2%. No sense crying over spilt milk for more than a year. Time to move on without the EU holding your hand. They will cease to exist before the UK ceases to exist anyway.
Fund the audits, spread the word and educate people, write your politicians and other elected officials. Stay active in the fight to save our country. Over 220 generals and admirals say we are in a fight for our survival like no other time since 1776.

Chicago hasn't had heavy gun regulations in a little while, try to keep up.

Hey, maybe we should just get rid of gun laws altogether, get rid of the police too, how's that sound?

i remember a study that was done back in the late 80s or early 90s, that showed most gun deaths were by a few specific calibers, I only spent 10 sec on google, but came up with something like this

http://gastatic.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/TopTenTraced.jpg

so if you eliminated handguns you would eliminate most gun deaths, of course the choice of caliber might be “elastic” if one is not available another is substituted

but I believe if you outlawed handguns and handgun ammunition, you would greatly reduce firearm deaths while at the same time allowing white people to feel secure by allowing them to own long arms to keep at home

it’s less practical to commit crimes in public with weapons you can’t conceal
so while I don’t think eliminating handguns would eliminate gun deaths it would reduce them
let white people own long guns and ammo to “defend their home from minorities” and have the capability to defend the nation the next time the British invade New Orleans

get rid of the pistols and pistol ammo

Many BLM activists and other activists for blacks want to get rid of police. I think this should be tested. Find a section of Chicago or perhaps Baltimore and let BLM or some other group act as the law within that area.

Problems I can see developing. Emergency responders such as fire and ambulance services may not want to respond without some armed escorts. Same may go for utilities such as gas, water, sewage, electric, etc.

krimster what a racist idea. This is racist because long guns and their ammo are more expensive than hand guns and their ammo. Since minorities are poorer than whites this would disproportionately effect blacks and Hispanics. Therefore your idea is racist.

I'm sure BLM activists and their friends would give some similar reasoning for your racist post.

Typical liberal deflection. What does it matter when the last regulation took effect? Chicago is the 8th highest gun regulated in the US with a rating of B+. Hell, the 2nd amendment took effect 227 years ago, and despite futile efforts by liberals to amend/change it, doesn't mean it isn't still effective today.


But the cute thing about this is, you completely missed the point. Chicago is a wonderful case study of what happens when talking heads and politics muck-up our society. Those idiots I named above are as much responsible for the violence we see in Chicago and places like it. This isn't about 'guns'. This is about a highly politicized segment of our society and what can happen when people make stupid, senseless projections unto things that affect all of us.


Black on black crimes, by sheer numbers alone, overshadow any other 'race based' criminal offenses. When you have Obama calling a cop a jerk before he even knew what happened in the Gates' case, you divide the country. When you send Eric Holder to Ferguson to investigate a police shooting because the federal government felt they should intervene, you take away due process. To make that even worst, you reward a thug who perjured and started the silly 'hands up, don't shoot' crap by giving him a cushy public job he never earned, by memorializing a criminal that was Michael Brown, by causing the public to change their focus on those we rely on to keep peace - then you destroy the very tool we relied to maintain sanity on these cities.


Rahm Emmanuel sequestered his own police force for doing its job because of all the negative publicity and endless politicization of these tragedies. You don't need to wonder what can happen if we took away the police force, you can already see that in the streets of Baltimore, Chicago et al. The country never learned a damn thing in the LA Riots of the 90s.


Make matters worst, Sharpton, Watters, Jackson, Holder, & company ignore black-on-black violence because, frankly, there's no money to be made in these instances. So much for Black Lives Matter, right? Why aren't these idiots appear in places like Chicago making an effort to stop these nonsense if black lives really do matter? Who funds BLM?


This isn't about *guns*, this about numbnut liberals who couldn't care less what they pretend to care about, Unless there's money to be made.

You're taking a VERY complex issue and blaming liberals. How useless and utterly unhelpful. 

Yes, 90% of blacks are killed by other blacks, but 84% of whites are killed by other whites, any discussion about this?

Crime is higher in poorer areas, of which large inner cities many, but violent crime in these areas is actually higher between whites than between blacks. Any discussion about this?
 
Whenever black politicians or BLM start talking about police violence against blacks or other race related disparities, conservatives love to distract everyone by bringing up black on black crime, then blame liberals.

Wrong again.


Tell me a conservative *talking head* that politicized, and blamed the liberal, when a trans-racial violent crime is committed in the same  manner liberals do when it happens, especially when it's a white-on-black / cops-on-blacks / martian-on-blacks, etc..Quick use Google. The algorthythm I'm certain is already set for you.


Even with your link, LESS THAN 10% of trans-racial, white/Hispanic/Asian-on-black violent crimes is committed. YET liberal talking heads are up in arms when it does happen. My question is - wtf HAPPENS to these idiots during the whopping 90% of the time of black-on-black violent crimes if Black Lives really Matter?


This dynamic LARGELY resides with Liberals, one which you cannot deny.

When blacks are victims, do conservative "talking heads" even make mention of it in any way other than to blame liberals?

I'm not a BLM supporter and I understand your point but you can't fix/have a rational discussion about such complicated issues by reducing it to a liberal/conservative issue. Talking heads have never solved a problem their job is to fan the flames.

Agreed. If you noticed, I intially referred to *talking head* with no political affiliation.

Unfortunately however, when tragic violent crime occurs, especially when it involves gun/race, you're almost assured an outflux of liberal talking heads from the likes of those I named above, liberal mainstream media, even sports figure the likes of LeBron James (remember Trevor Martin) comes out of the woodwork crying race and oppression. This reaction will last for days if not weeks. Deafening any recourse to mediate any future repeat and restoring trust, peace within our public facility. Instead such tragedies only become an opportunity for a quick means for social lottery payout for many.

Conservative talking head are not immune to idiotic banter either. Rush Limbaugh is at the top of that heap, especially when Joe Scalise was shot along with others. But these idiots don't litter the public domain in the manner the other side do.

Violent crimes are an abomination regardless of course, race or means. Period.
