NONE of any of what this poll is asking says ANYTHING about race! its about religion!
It's completely about race. They respondents who said Barack Obama was born in another country are reacting to his color, nothing else. You can pretend otherwise, but they had to make him "other" because they just could not wrap their heads around a president with black skin.
Please try to spin that poll as not showing racism.
Ultimately, the concern people have is not what percentage of Trump supporters are racists, Nazis, KKK or unhinged bigots. It's that the rest of them don't have any problem with it.
On the flip side, don't you think that companies should pay for the studies needed to make sure their products are safe? Why should the public have to subsidise the development of a for profit company's products?
This article shows exactly why. Because a company that stands to gain from a particular result can not be trusted to do their own research regarding the public safety.
Remember all the tobacco industry studies that proved cigarettes didn't cause cancer? That's why.
not sure why im bothering with an AC, slow work day maybe, but the reason you get modded down for saying that is because unlike your assertion, it is in fact, not a fact. its not true, in the slightest. and only an idiot would think as such
According to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll, in fact the assertion that "most Trump supporters are racist" is actually true (at least if you consider "holding racist views" the same as being racist). And it's true by a wide margin. There have been other polls showing the same result, and if you want I can point them out to you.
Now how do I know that's your reply? You could just be saying that it's yours while you're really complaining that allowing Instagram to filter is another example of the SJWs being out of control.
or all the ones saying climate change is happening, when we know there is political power to be had there,
You had me and then you lost me. Where's all the big money and political power in promoting climate change? Where is the equivalent of a fossil fuel industry level of wealth and power in climate change?
It's perfectly possible to modify organisms to be dangerous or even lethal. It is also possible to modify them to be healthy.
OK, let me rephrase: Why should we believe any company has genetically-modified a food organism in order to make it more healthy? Given this story, and the incredible amounts of money that are at stake for the GMO industry, why should we believe any of the studies showing there are any healthy food products made from GMO? Given the billions spent fighting simple labeling, why should we believe these companies have our best interests in mind? Remember, none of them sell products direct to consumers. They're products are marketed to growers.
Read this story and think for a moment about all the "GMOs are perfectly safe" studies. You don't think it's possible some of the wealthiest, most powerful corporations in the world might have a hand in that?
So, you think the decision to force Ireland to collect those back taxes was made, "willy nilly"?
Have you ever been in the crosshairs of the tax man? I have. I know from experience, they tried to tell me I owed them tens of thousands (according to their math), when in fact they owed ME. And then weaseled OUT of it. Through an technicality. What's worse, is I wouldn't have known that they owed me if they hadn't gotten greedy and came at me for more! But it didn't matter to them that I was right and they were wrong, because from the beginning it's an adversarial position of power that they try to intimidate and terrorize you into giving up and giving them what they think you owe, not the other way around.
Why bring Trump into this? Okian Warrior didn't say anything about Trump, and didn't say the lying was exclusive to Hillary. Pointing out bad things about one candidate doesn't mean you support a different one.
Because I'm with Matthew 7 3:5 on this one:
3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
Me, I think it's always worth examining all the motes and all the beams.
First they came for Apple... THEN they'll come for YOU... For Taxes, mate!!!
No, because I pay my fucking taxes.
Please flesh out your original thought: "First they came for Apple..." I would like to see how you could possibly connect that with "them" ever coming for you or me.
I don't think that anyone here believes that! The entirety of your contributions to this thread have been defending her, trying to derail the thread with criticisms of Trump, or both.
No, you won't find a single post of me singing Hillary Clinton's praises. At best, I'll point out that compared to Donald Trump she's Winston fucking Churchill, but Donald Trump is about as low a standard for presidential candidates as you could set. Sad! Compared to him, the corpse of Rutherford B Hays would be a better choice for president.
Why should he release them? Romney did, and all it bought him was a lot of people like you complaining that he took every available deduction he could (otherwise known as "obeying the law")
Because all presidential and vice-presidential candidates release their tax records. Even Mike Pence knew enough to keep with tradition.
If Romney (and, I assume Trump) is ashamed of how they do their taxes, then it's even more reason that there should be disclosure.
Going to pay respects at a 9/11 memorial despite a case of pneumonia sounds pretty bad-ass, now that you mention it. Donald Trump evaded the draft saying he has a "bone spur" in his heel, which he says has since spontaneously healed.
Note: bone spurs do not spontaneously heal.
I am not a fan of Hillary Clinton, but I can't think of any medical condition (including schizophrenia or a medically-induced coma) that would make her a worse choice than Donald Trump.

True story: the Canadians named their intercontinental ballistic missiles after Guy Lefleur.
[OK, it's not really a true story, but it would be so cool if it were.]

We're not. We completely support Kermit, because he is an SJW and a cuck.
You are one of the bad Trump supporters, so no. I will only vote for Trump if all his supporters denounce Pepe the Frog.
It's completely about race. They respondents who said Barack Obama was born in another country are reacting to his color, nothing else. You can pretend otherwise, but they had to make him "other" because they just could not wrap their heads around a president with black skin.
OK, so you believe the polls are skewed and Trump supporters are not really mostly racist.

The Anonymous Cowards aren't going to like this one bit. Nosiree bob.
People being able to choose what content they see goes against everything they stand for, you bet.
You just made my point.

Just follow the money.

I mean, 80% of the Apple speakers were gay men and the remaining 20% were bi-curious, so what's the problem? Or isn't that diverse enough for you?
Aren't we in America? I thought this was America!
Heel spurs will not go away on their own. They do not "wear down".
What would the world do without him? Now he's claiming his rocket blew the fuck up because it was hit by a UFO.

If they "passed muster with the IRS" then why is he using the fact that he's being audited as an excuse to not release the returns?
And what about all the years that preceded the audit? What is he hiding? Even Richard Nixon released his tax returns.
