    Hey, no one ever complained about racism when Arnold was instructed to wrap a towel around his head.

    Donald Trump cures cancer. HIV is now calling Trump a disease bigot.

    No, I think you are just crying victim. I don't think everybody on the right is trolling. I think you perceive it that way because you haven't questioned you're own beliefs and view points.
    Think about that question.
    Yes it is we have adults whining about mean words on the internet. And calling everybody that doesn't agree with them bullies.
    I can. If they really bothered me I wouldn't go to a website where they are. It actually takes effort not to ignore them.
    People often project their Frailties on others. You should learn to put that energy into growth.
    I can't think of any conservative riots.
    for some people if you just talked to them like they are people and not the most evil thing on the planet you might find you have a lot in common with them.

    Evaluate your viewpoints discuss them with others who disagree that's how you formulate stronger and better view points. Most people can do this with you some cannot and for some subjects it's harder for some people than it is for others.
    I don't think you're going to have any luck. First you gotta understand people who disagree with you aren't bullets they're just people just like you. Maybe they haven't thought about things the way you have, maybe you haven't thought about things the way they have. If you come off telling them they're evil bullies they're going to mock you and run you off because you bring no value to the discussion you aren't a rational person to discuss viewpoints with.

    I'm not saying everyone is reasonable in fact I bet you can find most people are irrational about one subject or another. And what you do is you don't talk to them about that subject.

    I think a place biased against your viewpoints this is the perfect place for you. I'm not interested in changing your mind. if you have a different viewpoint than me I'm interested in finding out how rational it is. I don't want to talk to you about it and find out why you think that way. Because I do that I've changed my position on a few things. I haven't on others.

    Best advice I can offer you first do not become emotionally connected to your viewpoint. I think if you do that will find discussion being less frustrating. Second avoid subjects with which you don't have a lot of knowledge on. 3rd avoid people within subjects who cannot discuss the subject in a rational manner.

    If you do that I imagine you could go any place and have a rather pleasant experience.

    My dad who I love cannot handle any discussion about religion that doesn't suggest Catholicism is the correct religion. I'm very careful talking about it with him. And because of that I've learned to view Catholics as separate individuals from the Catholic Church. I gained some understanding. I'm nothing special, I'm an average guy. So I don't think this is out of the question for most other people.

    Is he from Central America?

    Why would he be "Boohooing about BELIZE"?

    (If he wasn't from Central America?)

    Anyway, I will once again state my position on Trump Trolling with this Shopped Pic:

    Trump is an IMMATURE Twitter TROLL.

    He is a DISGRACE to the Office.

    I guess his thinking (in posting a shopped pic) is:

    "It won't cost me any votes, so who cares?"

    Still, he remains a DISGRACE to the Dignity of the Office.:smh:

    Any Republican ever to Grace the office will be a disgrace to you so not being a disgrace requirements people to take leave of their own positions.

    And I think it's absolutely the most intelligent thing to point out typing errors that must be what Einstein did in his spare time.

    You should take a look at all the socialists Scandinavian countries if you want to see racism. The ethic diversity in Finland, Norway and Sweden is almost nonexistent. And all the Dems want to be just like these racist countries.

    You’re certainly entitled to your opinion, but all indicators prove otherwise. From the economy, to the jobs report, to homeownership, to respect from foreign countries, to higher GDP, to strong consumer confidence, to loyalty for our military, to domestic goods production, to energy self reliance, to lowering numbers in welfare and EBT, to defeating world terrorism, to draining the swamp, to deregulation, to the mightiest military etc etc etc.

    Agreed.

    Interesting fact about Einstein-he did not talk until he was 4 years old.

    His first words were "the soup is cold".

    When later asked why he waited until he was 4 to speak, he stated "up until that time, everything had been fine".

    No. Taxes actually do belong to the government as one of a few revenue streams governments acquire . Wealth is an accumulation of resources that can belong to a person, a corporation, an institution, or a government. The 'creator' of wealth may be the owner of wealth at least initially, or not. Whatever your philosophical or ideological views may be, property rights are determined by statutes, not pontifications and money is property.

    Ah, spoken like a true minion

    The big difference—private wealth is earned, created, and produced; government loot is taken by force, with a gun, immorally. See it? One is creation, the other destruction. Nah, you won’t get it.

    So...

    Go away little one, you bother me. Shoo. Shoo.

    (When you come for mine, be reckless—I like things easy.)

    Ayn Rand: “Money is made—before it can be looted or mooched—made by the effort of every honest man, each to the extent of his ability. An honest man is one who knows that he can’t consume more than he has produced.”

    Christians are free to believe whatever they want, they can not discriminate against others in business based on race or gender though, same is true of any other religion

    if you can't sell cakes cause you think it violates your religion... don't sell cakes... simple

    What kind of nonsense is that--your free as long as you please my ass. FK that, and any vile POHS that mumbles it.


    You don't like me, don't knock on my door. It's also known as the principle of Individual Rights, which are protected under the principle of property rights. In other words, you sick twisted statist bureaucrat, don't come to my house and tell me how to live my life, you demented arse.

    You're not allowed to discriminate based on race or religion and claim that is your religious right, you can believe whatever you want

    people used to believe that had a God given right to own slaves, doesn't mean denying them the ability to own slaves is denying them their religious rights

    Oh, watch me do it every single day of my life, in every decision I make--I pity the fools who don't. I'm a very discriminating mind, it's how the mind works. (Identification, discrimination, subtraction, integration, conception--its called Reason, the very thing you and your anti-intellectual brothers wish to destroy. I bet you are a Post-Modern nihilist, aren't you? And you don't want anybody to tell you. I just did.

    Bigots and racists have the same political rights as gender-benders and species-deniers. It's called freedom of thought, the sacred ideal the Progressives are murdering with their assinine "Hate Laws"--when did having emotions become a criminal offense? You lemmings are marching straight to the killing field's gulag Zyklon B. showers in order to avoid the reality you're denying. It won't work, the end won't be nice at all. Nope, not at all.

    [​IMG]

    This is the future you fight for. Knowingly or not--for when thought becomes a crime--when life and property belong to the state to rule and control--when souls are judged by their emotions and not their actions--you can rest assured the barbed wire has been purchased. You will not enjoy it.

    In a free society, a shop owner has the right to accept or reject an offer of purchase for whatever reason he chooses, rational or not; just as a customer has the right to reject an offer of sale for whatever reason they wish. However, neither has the right to point a gun, including the government's, at each other's head demanding, "My or die". That's the attitude of thugs, tyrants, and madmen. Wouldn't you rather be free and rational? I would.
