    Funny- I feel the same way.  We win on Friday.

     

    I would have him instead of Lapo- but not over MOS.   I have a feeling that if we show MOS as much patience as he shows the players, it will pay off HUGE in the near future. 

    If we don't make the playoffs this year then he needs to go.   

    3 straight non-playoff years in the cfl is nowhere near acceptable.

    Nor did many of Venezuela's problems begin with his landslide election victory, they are endemic of an economy relying too heavily on oil revenues, similar to AB.  You can easily blame the govt. of the moment if that fits your political belief in the boogieman.  Curious, are you really interested in S. American politics in general or just the regions that produce oil?

    It wasn't their reliance on oil that was the problem but the wide-spread corruption and abuse of power and the all around cruminess that is socialism.  Have money? Socialism will waste it and leave you poor and raiding grocery stores for food.  Venezuela should be a warning of the dangers of socialism.....like the world needed ANOTHER one, but people just don't seem to learn.

     

    And to answer your question, I'm interested in seeing what destroys a country, any country and to see what we can learn from others' mistakes.

    Another post name calling people.  What's wrong with you lately?  Im sure Basslicker (like myself) can take it.  But it really brings down a discussion when posters resort to that childish behavior.  You can do a lot better.

    Once a debate resorts to name calling you know you're losing. 

     

    As for my 'pampers' remark, I'm not a fan when people resort to that level.  Stooping?  maybe.  

    Difference is, I'm not losing my mind like 007 here.    Shake................and Bake

    Weren't they the ones who made 'America great'?

    Yes, America was made great by the very people modern culture is out to vilify. 

    Like it or not, America has been a beacon of freedom, liberty and progress the likes of which the world have never seen.  They've lost their way now, but some are trying to stop the ship from sinking.

    They didn't start slavery but they sure ended it....at least in Western Civilization.

    Blah blah blah.  The planet warms. The planet cools. Before humans. During humans. After humans. 

    And it will continue to do so, whether the government steals my money or not, because...feelings

    The ironic part of that is the lunatic didn't even use an AR-15.  The gun he used was a Sig Sauer MCX (they are similar though).

    Yup, all these media outlets (all pawns) are reporting FALSE information with no retractions.

     

    An AR15 was NOT used, nor is it an 'assault rifle'.  I always laugh when all the gun-haters scream about things of which they have no understanding.

    According to the American Psychological Association, children are not more likely to be molested by LGBT parents or their LGBT friends or acquaintances. Gregory Herek, a professor at the University of California, Davis, who is one of the nation's leading researchers on prejudice against sexual minorities, reviewed a series of studies and found no evidence that gay men molest children at higher rates than heterosexual men.

    The Child Molestation Research & Prevention Institute notes that 90% of child molesters target children in their network of family and friends, and the majority are men married to women. Most child molesters, therefore, are not gay people lingering outside schools waiting to ****** children from the playground, as much religious-right rhetoric suggests.

    It's also true that domestic violence if higher in same-sex couples, and lesbian couples specifically.  Go google it, lots of info will come up.

    And I believe it's for the reason as why Trans people have a grossly high suicide rate.....they're struggling with their life and their choices and what they perceive themselves to be.

    But what are you concerned about?  You said you never had to worry before so why now?  

    People just don't get what people are concerned about.

    The people who are Trans, (mentally ill I think, but that's irrelevant to this point) are not the danger, it's male predators abusing that idea and getting access to girls washrooms without question just because they 'feel' like a woman.  That's the problem.

    When I was 19/20 I worked for a popular nightclub in Winnipeg and on Monday's they had "alternative night" which had a large gay clientele.  Most of the bouncers didnt want to work it but I was new and I wanted to work.  I recall being hit on or complimented many times by guys (in a similar way I was hit on or complimented by women) and couple of my co workers would get physically agitated and ask me why I didnt punch the guy out etc.  And I remember saying why would i?  it's a compliment.  This was a long time ago mind you but I always thought it odd that the guys who professed such outward masculinity were seemingly so concerned about being turned to the gay side. 

    That's an old and worn-out argument.  'You don't like gays and they ,make you uncomfortable so you MUST be gay yourself'

    Let's dispense with the hand waving.

    This is about cheap labor and power in the developing world for the manufacturing industry and nothing more.

    'Going green' will mean the death of thousands in the poor and developing world.  They can't afford oil now, never mind alternative energy.  The world will be bankrupt and full of revolutions before we make any difference.  We are a rich country and even we're going bankrupt converting to this nonsense.  And now Notley here in Alberta is jumping on board with Wynne in destroying what's left of real industry in this country. 

    Alberta has an MLA who loves Hugo Chavez, and we can all see what great good his plans have done to Venezuela.

    Americans will fight to the death under their 2nd ammendment rights to bear arms but don't seem to care about free & affordable health care. Makes no sense at all.

    'free'?  'affordable'?

     

    No such thing as 'free healthcare'  We pay through the wazoo in taxes, just to wait in line for hours for healthcare.

    And hopefully you don't one of these joke Dr.'s who say;  'You can only bring one issue to my attention per visit.'   What a joke.
