I understand the geographical difficulties. I agree we have a large army. I also agree we have more guns in our citizenry than any other country.It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws we have seen in recent years and we must stop it.

I can agree with those statements too. I just don't agree that the last statement would ever give any country a moments pause if they really wanted to invade.Originally posted by baldgriff View PostI'm unconsoled I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be.

Boy, how stupid are we to have our most liberal anti-gun populations guarding our coasts? If the enemy storms the shores of California, they might march to Arizona or Utah before they encounter any serious resistance.

I watch MSNBC/CNN and read the NYtimes/Washington post and other small us papers for my news.
Sometimes I will watch FOX to see what others might "think" and am usually amazed that not only are there irrational slants to the stories
but
many huge news stories dont even exist in the FOX world - so if that is all you watch you will likely miss something important.
secondly what the heck is BG saying - the US hasnt been attacked by a foreign country because citizens here have guns - what??
and I am one of those liberal anti-gun guys guarding new jersey - so I guess the enemy should just come through my neighborhoodComment

Oh Im just playing the ultra 2nd Amendment lover role........ the fly-over hick..... the gun loving redneck...... or whatever other term may apply. Its fun to sometimes yank the chain of people here.

The best was when I told Bhob a couple days ago that he should probably take advantage of his 2nd amendment rights.It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws we have seen in recent years and we must stop it.

I bet if someone wanted to occupy us, the amount of guns we have would complicate their plan.Originally posted by BuckyBuckner View Post"The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden, beyond the hugs, kisses and touching that women previously said made them uncomfortable." -NY Times

Hey, just because someone favors gun control laws doesn't mean they are "anti-gun". I love guns, have kept them all my life, but I don't think the Second Amendment is absolute.Originally posted by senorsheep View PostBoy, how stupid are we to have our most liberal anti-gun populations guarding our coasts?

On the other thing, it isn't the 18th Century anymore, when the Army and the citizens go musket against musket. Soldiers of an invading force would be much better armed than even the most prepared citizens. No contest, despite my favorite movie "Red Dawn".If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. - Karl PopperComment

Shit, all the national news channels are propaganda machines. Fox is just the one on the right.Originally posted by DMT View Post
When you have 24 hours a day, it's no longer about reporting the news but commenting endlessly on the news.Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?Comment

I'm not saying all networks don't have agenda-driven coverage, but this seemed particularly egregious to me.Originally posted by Pogues View PostIf DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

Wolverines! and seriously, no one "occupies" a nation of 350 million that has 2 oceans as its primary borders and the worlds biggest navy, even if the citizens were armed with sticks and rocksOriginally posted by cardboardbox View Post"You know what's wrong with America?
