Inconceivable

Can we put furries in this category?

Wait. What?

Boys will be boys? Can we still say that, or is it sexist now?

They look stupid happy while they're doing it. I stand by my assessment.

Oh. I always considered "2" as the only definition. Yeah, those white people are totally rioting. In my defense, "1" is "archaic". We should keep it though so there's something to call what white people do when they're having a destructive party. Wait. Which kind of riot are we talking about there being if Obama were to be impeached?

That's why I picked Vanguard for mine! It sounds like a company that will charge headlong, guns blazing, into the commie ranks that try to take my money.

Affluenza didn't really start until the mid-2000s. Also, those people look happy, so it seems more like a destructive party than an angry riot.

Both of your examples include building things. Maybe we could start by repairing a bridge or two...

I don't think it has to do with the demographic makeup of urban areas - I think it has to do more with the fact that white people don't really "riot". Edit: I just read your post before this one. I will amend my statement to be, "white people don't really 'riot' since the dawn of the age of affluenza".

Truth. Probable cause is just an empty requirement that we still say we use to make us feel better when the Gestapo comes for our neighbor. It used to actually mean something.

Or PETA. PETA freaks me out.

We're not sending any troops there. The media told me so. You lie!

Mass media outlets have really gotten bad about presenting speculation, opinion, and political propaganda as "news". Gotta read Al Jazeera & BBC to get real international news anymore, and we're left high and dry for domestic affairs.

A revolution to what end? You have a lot of posts about things that unfair to poor people, but I haven't seen the first solution proposed. What would the outcome of this revolution be? Socialism? I just don't understand what it is that you want to happen.

Here's what you don't seem to grasp with these posts: the very basis of our country's economic makeup is that wealth will not, ever ever ever, be distributed evenly. The idea is that a person can move from the top of your pyramid to the bottom with no hindrance based on their genealogical lineage. Our rights are not that everyone has everything that everyone else has, but rather that we are able, not guaranteed, to obtain the lifestyle that we desire and not be held back because our great-great-grandfather was a debtor.

A capitalist deal.

It's the "white people drinking $8 latte and feeling sorry for people that aren't white because they have sad little lives" syndrome.

Yeah, I'm tired of this "we're poor save us!" crap. I grew up eating mayonnaise sandwiches on a good day. These handout junkies are disgusting creatures that I look at as less than human. I get that right because I fought through as bad or much worse than what they cry about with zero assistance. There are some that just need a hand, but there are others that really don't deserve food, health care, or anything else.

Maybe they should rename to "Conquistadors".

I don't even know what "artisan" means anymore. I thought I knew a few years ago, but now Sargento has "artisan" cheese. I must have been wrong.

I'm with you. The terrible things that people do just wasn't thrown all up in people's grills in the past. "Oh my goodness people kill elementary school kids and this is brand new and we're on the preicipace of the end of morality what's causing all this new stuff?!?!" (Bath School, anyone?) It's always been there and always will be. Even in the Bible, 42 kids were whacked for making fun of bald people. It sucks. On to the real current problem: people walking around with their junk out. I don't like it. There was a month I wasn't supposed to shave because of cancer too, but I have t

Bit of a catch 22 for your logic, GD, because most "strong and successful" women tend to be flaming liberals. Mine was, but she declared on this very day that she considers herself and "independant"! It's like watching your kids grow up: they're all stupid then they get it. But, TP is talking about "rich" women. Well, that just makes sense because women haven't been in control of their own destiny for very long, so the vast majority of them got rich because of conservative men in their lives and will lean that way. There are some like Martha Stewart and Oprah...wait just a dagblasted s
