Media is certainly doing their part - I can't argue with that. Social media complicates it even more. I think many people have more trust in uncensored social media but are equally fooled into thinking something must be true because it has been re-tweeted so many million times giving it a aura of cr...

Actually the breast cancer movement started out rather politicized as well. Breast cancer used to be a taboo subject. It wasn't until the feminist movement in the 70's that people were able to talk about it. The marches and protests followed after the success of the AIDS marches and protests in the ...

The people were insisting on their rights to have guns before BLM vs. LE. Yes, BLM is absolutely racists and that's part of the overall problem. Regardless of that, there have been too many incidences of cops shooting black guys including way too many that were without any justifiable cause whatsoev...

Personally, I think the US is at the beginning of a civil war. Last week, LE lost whatever little credibility they still had. And the black community is getting (rightfully) fed up. The 2 sides are emerging and people are starting to pick one or another (at least in my observation which could be com...

I sold a car for $5K cash once. What about e-transfers? Also, you can ask for a certified check or money order.

Even if the referendum is not binding, to fail to act on it would be a slap against democracy. They have to do something. Good question regarding whether "the people" are qualified to make this decision. In my opinion, no. "The people" really aren't qualified to make any importan...

From what I've read in the last few days the major issue is immigration and border control which is affecting their unemployment. Again, I haven't been following closely but I can sort of comprehend this. We in Canada were having major problems with our previous government over their Temporary Forei...

I have to admit I haven't paid a whole lot of attention to it and I truly don't know what impact it will have on those of us across the pond but I am slightly shocked that it is actually going through. On the other hand, I have caught a slight whiff of change in attitude towards the whole globalizat...

Chisamba - the list in that link are the largest mass killings so the Boston Marathon isn't in there. Curiously, 911 isn't in there either and I'm not quite certain why.

Make getting a gun as difficult as getting an abortion. Show graphic videos, call the parents... IMO, it should be much easier to get an abortion. Don't be ridiculous - even the fiercest anti-gun activists aren't asking to make it that hard to get a gun. And considering that graphic videos of these...

Tabby

I completely agree. And I'd like to see guns regulated in a similar way as motor vehicles with various safety components in their engineering and assembly and limits as to how they perform and degrees of licenses as to who can drive what vehicle with what credentials. Nobody complains that it's too ...

If you look at the recent history of mass killings in the US, what they all have in common is MEN were the killers. http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/12/481768384/a-list-of-the-deadliest-mass-shootings-in-u-s-history Not exactly.

I'd like to respond to this thread but you all know what my opinion is so I'll leave it at that. These things make me very sad and the fact that nothing will be done makes me even sadder.

I'm curious about the influence of non-Dem/Rep parties in these elections. Using your example - if the Libertarian POTUS candidate got a lot of votes - not enough to be considered a threat but enough to draw attention - would that influence the main parties as to how they develop future policies? I ...

Are there really a whole lot of independents WMW? Is there any point in voting someone who hasn't got a chance of getting in?

Tabby

I'm curious as to what might happen now with Hillary being declared the nominee. According to what I've read, Bernie Saunders is not dropping from the race yet. Is there some strategy for him to continue on? Is there a chance he'll run as an independent? Also, what do his supporters do now? I get th...

Foreign observer here - I do wonder why it has taken you so long to have a woman candidate. I remember back when Clinton was running against Obama, somebody right here (well, UDBB at the time) argued that the world wasn't ready for a female leader. It seemed unbelievable that the land of the free wa...

Yes and all 3 will be able to find them. Like all-inclusives, you can't be overly picky when booking or you will lose the deal. But they do exist.

I'm not sure how they got my email addy but my first one came from Apple and when I checked my account it was fine. I alerted Apple about it and haven't got another from them since. Now I get them from almost everything including some businesses that I deal with and some that I don't. They all go in...

I was just scanning my spam folder and I noticed I have a whole lot of these in there. To the best that I can tell, nothing has been charged to my credit card or anything else. I'm assuming it's a scam but I'm afraid to open the emails in case I activate it somehow. Does anyone know how these work? ...

That would be awesome Koolkat! The list just says "from Equador". Would you mind parting with it for a while? I can send it back to you - I need to take a picture of it with at least one team member. I will PM you my mailing address.

Tabby

Thanks! One of my facebook friends has a sister in law in Equador. Hopefully she thinks this is fun too!

I'm doing a scavenger hunt and one of the things we're supposed to find is a post card from Equador. We just need to take a photo of our team with it. If anyone has one or can get one, please PM me! Thanks!

I'm an Olympics junkie as well! I watch it all - summer & winter and all of the sports for each. Texsuze I think the appeal of winter Olympics is that many of the sports are new and unfamiliar to us - even us Canadians who do ski and snowboard recreationally. Some of them are just crazy. Love sn...

Trial is still very interesting. Smitch took the stand to say that he was following behind in the other truck when Millard shot Bozma. He also said Millard loaded Bozma into the incinerator and burnt him while he destroyed evidence off blood in the truck. For an entire week, Millard's lawyer cross e...

Thanks, it does help. Generally speaking, I feel the same way. But if it isn't too expensive and won't cause any harm, I don't mind giving something a try.

Apparently it has been used in Europe for years but is new to Canada. I don't know if they have it in the US or not. My BO heard that it worked as well as joint injections. I'm not keen on going the injection route unless I can be convinced that it might truly improve his quality of life. Is quality...

Has anyone here used it? My BO recommended it as a possible treatment for my horse's stifles. He's an 18 yo OTTB. His only job these days is trail riding on weekends with the odd schooling session here and there. He's not lame (yet) but I've noticed changes over the years. At first, my farrier notic...

Yay!!! Also, they are able to get into the city to survey the damages. It isn't as bad as previously thought. Though some neighbourhoods are completely destroyed, about 85% of the buildings can be saved. I'm sure many of those buildings (and their contents) have some damage but at least it isn't com...

The Crown rests, Millard's lawyer rests, but Smitch's lawyer is electing to call evidence. The only thing we don't know is if Smitch himself will take the stand. If he does, both the Crown and the other defense lawyer will be all over him. The trial is going to resume Wednesday. http://www.cbc.ca/ne...

Here's a really nice story about a fire fighter who answered pleas on social media to rescue their pets left at home. Many of these people were not allowed to return to their homes when the evacuation orders were made and had to leave their pets behind. Thankfully there were people like this who wen...

I never did find my ants but they were definitely entering through my bathroom. I ended up spraying poison along baseboards and across the threshold of doorways. This trapped them inside my bathroom and I would find 6 or 8 dead ones every day for about a week and then they disappeared.

A couple of months back Trump said his supporters would riot if he didn't get the nomination. That was a dog whistle if I ever heard one. Now I think he'll probably get the nomination and these riots won't happen - yet. It may take another election cycle or so but if the machinery behind the parties...

Sounds scary Rhianon. I watched one video of cars driving through the fire and it nearly made me sick to my stomach. I can't imagine doing it myself. It's amazing that nobody died in the fires though 2 were killed on the evacuation highway. Those poor people have lost everything and the fire is stil...

The problem with the voters is the grand majority pay no attention whatsoever until election time rolls around. Then they get all of their information from media and ads and most of this is highly biased if not outright inaccurate in some cases. People get swayed by single issues even though everyth...

I guess the question is do Americans hate Hillary more than Trump? It's so hard to gauge from here - most of the sites and forums I visit are people that hate one or both of these 2, yet they are both winning their respective races. With Hillary I kind of understand. Bernie's ideals are pretty far t...

I didn't see a thread on this. I've read a lot about horses and other animals being rescued. It occurred to me that it's possible some of our own members are up there.

Ok, now that Cruz is out - does that mean Trump is basically the winner? How do you all feel about that - and I mean ALL of you?

They found some bones and teeth in the incinerator but they were too charred to identify. They could only say that they were human bones.
