  1. Maybe you are right. LOL! Since when are you concerned about your reasoning being well received -- spit it out man! Besides the reasons I'm hearing for making this a federal case makes no damn sense to me so far. @Pioneer1, if a woman tried to stop you from entering your own apartment would you make a video of it and put in youtube? Seems like a childish, almost punk-like way of handling this (not something I'd expect a woman to understand). Some of the Brothers I know would have just showered her to the side and entered -- end of story. I don't get these social-media-people sometimes... Perhaps you are right, but this too is subjective based upon the recipient's own lense. Sometimes when what you expressed is so distorted from both what you intended to communicate and your actual belief it is hard to understand. What the listener is thinking. @Cynique, sure people believe their opinions but that is an entirely different thing than what is true what is factual. People hold opinions about things that are demonstrably false. We are all entitled to our opinions... Now we disagree about the relative importance of this situation. I think it is of no real consequence and certainly not newsworthy. You and Chevdove disagree. Fine. Yes my increasing disdain for the media informs my opinion because were it not for the media -- I don't read ANYTHING on Twitter unless it is directed to me, and I definitely don;t follow 45. However I am subjected his every tweet if it is incendiary and factually incorrect the more likely I'm to know about it. Twitter is losing active users by the droves -- why login to Twitter when mainstream media repeats everything there anyway? Me too
  2. Chev We need to make sure AMERICANS have a better life first before we start bringing more people in by the millions to give THEM something so many Americans don't even have. What would you think about parents who's OWN kids are wearing rags for clothes, eating out of garbage cans, sleeping on the floor, no carpet in the house only news papers scattered all over the floor.............. Yet they want to ADOPT OTHER children, claiming they want to give these kids a "better life". Just like it would make more since for you to care of your own kids first THEN you can think about adopting others.......America needs to take care of it's OWN citizens first and make sure they have healthcare, jobs, and decent housing first and THEN if there's any prosperity left they can invite others in to partake. Charity starts at home.
  3. Troy Despite the urge to do so, I wouldn't have put my hands on her. That would be just the excuse she needs to justify assault charges. The building cameras wouldn't have caught her blocking me from getting into my apartment or following me around but I guarantee it would have caught me if I had put my hands on her. Actually I would have video taped her and called the police on her and quite possibly pressed charges. As far as the REAL reason she and others like her have been calling the cops on AfroAmericans...... They aren't doing it because they're "afraid" or sincerely believe criminal activity is going on. I believe they are doing it HOPING that the police will show up and seriously injure or kill the the person they called them on. These racists are using the police to do THEIR dirty work for them. It's called "swatting".
  4. "these people have little to offer us"? --in so far as 'America as a whole'. For many foreign people, they want to come to North America for a better way of life and don't realize what is really happening today.
  5. @Troy Okay. Point received. You had said that you didn't realize certain details, and so, in this, I can understand why your earlier assessment and opinions were as they had been. I woult suppose that operating the kind of business that you do, causes you to have to sift through a lot of material, and I could understand why you may skim certain articles and perhaps skip over some details. LOL. Troy, all I can say is, 'I am a @Cynique groupie!!!--- You pulverized me! I am no match for you!--- yes, I can agree with that in some cases. maybe. I think this system is in need of restructuring because people can lose their jobs for anything nowadays. LOL--I am going to have to look up the definition of 'hyperbole' before I can respond. @Pioneer1 LOL. Uh oh. okay.
