how do you expect a critical mass to form in support of replacing one or both political parties currently in power when the media in bed with them doesn't properly cover it.
Heh, by looking beyond the mass media, silly. Too many people just aren't uncomfortable enough to give a damn. Your fellow citizens are who's keeping them in power, nobody else. Not the media, not the corporations, just you and yours. If you won't go past what's being spoon fed by mass media, then look in the mirror. It's just too easy now.
Not sure if you have noticed, but there are a few things we are running out of here despite China's one child rule.... room, food, fuel, and some other less dramatic things.
We are not running out of them. We are only mismanaging them. There's lots of fresh water falling onto the oceans and empty land we can bring together.
Well...yeah! Look at it from the dictators' point of view. Do you people have nay idea how dangerous this "freedom" thing really is? You're trying to destroy entire social and economic hierarchies here. Sorry, man. It's gotta go.
Funny how pointing out abusive authority is considered flamebait amongst some people. Well, it would be funny if these people didn't go around killing others. They must really hate the idea of a free individual who answers to no one, so addicted they are to power.
Censorship is evil. No matter what. But we have to be honest here. When I see the effect that mass media has on adults, specifically during election season (which never seems to end anymore). I have to come to the conclusion the its effect is very powerful. And it's much more powerful on children with brains of mush. Not that many adults don't also have mushy brains. And the problem is not lack of censorship. It's a lack of adequate counterpoints.
The Texas AG said the same thing after the Oregon murder. Quite unfortunate. Even more so that the public accepts it. And even worse is that the people who point out police brutality are more widely disparaged than the cops who commit these crimes. Notice the troll who calls it "anti-American". And the rest here who are distracted by wording of the amendment while the authorities continue their crime spree.
Just the opposite. I want to know if they believe like I do that the 2nd amendment must apply to everybody. I have a feeling all they are going to come up with crap like they're "cop killers". And I want to know how we are to deal with killer cops.
Yeah, the hell with the rest, right? I wonder if you would have felt that way when the Black Panthers were trying to defend themselves against the abusive cops.
McCain has already laid bare his position. You don't get any. However, the subject of Obama's name will rule the day. Please help make civil liberties the issue it needs to be. It is a given that McCain is a big loser in that department and they will steadily lose out to his special interests he so vehemently denies. Obama's choices for VP and a cabinet will indicate how serious he is. There is only one choice if you care at all about your rights, even though the choice might not amount to anything. But it is clear that McCain is not interested in the subject. It will be to his detriment any time it ever comes up.
That if your kids have an "unhealthy" interest in science, computers, robots, and building stuff, you should turn them in to the authorities for reeducation. Knowledge is a dangerous thing, and its acquisition should be discouraged without proper supervision by a DHS officer and a priest.
??? Ok... sure... whatever you say. Can't argue with such impecable logic there. You're over the edge, "dude". Y'all take care. Keep fighting the good fight there, Mr O'Reilly.
That's how we do things now. It's much more efficient than actually obeying all those silly laws that regular folks have to. Can I use this to end the prohibition against marijuana? That would be cool.
If someone wants to kill me or my family, his life is obviously worth( )less.
From your relative POV I can understand your point. But my statement wasn't made from your point of view. However, since you brought it up, can I use that same argument to shoot a cop barging into my house on a bad bust with guns blazing? Or should I just accept my fate? Can I apply it to the Iraqi or Afghan who shoots and kills an American soldier who does the same thing? Whose life is more "valuable" there?

The printer did it! Yeah! Look inside the paper tray. That's where you'll find the jewels...
Just wait 'til I get through with it ...
Where the only needed upgrade over the years is a new pair of glasses.
over some interstate commerce clause, restriction of trade, or something?

...at least most western nations outside the US have more choices than tweedle-dee and tweedle-dum
Americans have lots of choices. But they like tweedle-dee and tweedle-dum
I do! You insensitive clod!
I just don't see us getting a real third party anytime soon.
Hell, I'll settle for a second one.

It is sort of reassuring to have seen a failure result in a controlled shutdown rather than some other, more undesirable action.
You're not kidding!

Yes Sir! Mr. Pol-lice Man! Pray you don't get caught in a bad bust.
Hey baby, troll here often?

Let's not forget
Oh yes, I keep on forgetting that there's no such thing as self defense against a brutal cop.
Yeah, the hell with the rest, right? I wonder if you would have felt that way when the Black Panthers were trying to defend themselves against the abusive cops.

Oh you can trust him alright...to follow Bush's exact footsteps. The people that vote for him are just as fascist as he is.
Cannot someone defend the way they've handled this?
No?
Anybody? Anybody at all?
Yoooo!

Oh Lordy. We are soooo doomed

Nature, truly, and deeply, does not care.
