$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Fishman', 'B')ack to Flash mob robberies. Ferfal's blog has good ideas on how to deal with them if caughtup. Most interesting was never go to ground, if you go down you get kicked. Unfortunately Ferfal didn't have recommendations for the shop owners.

Yep, thats what I was thinking also. See my first post here, "Large cannisters of pepper spray should slow down at least some of the criminals." But this has consequences also, see the post. Sting operation by the police perhaps, tweet a sit, have the kids show up, then arrest, or would that be entrapment? Sorry if these ideas would be perceived as helping the "Elite" or "attacking the poor".

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('GoIllini', 'T')hey have every right to say that the US is never spending another dollar, sure. They do not have the authority to push us into default, though, and that's the difference.

Well there's just not that much demand for capital since that inflation is for commodities and foreign oil, not building stuff.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Sixstrings', 'I')t's another topic, but the Vancouver riot strikes me as an anarchist type thing. Because otherwise those people have no good reason to riot -- compared to the rest of the world they're pampered and spoiled, and obviously self-entitled to the point where they no longer recognize the rights of others. You can just tell that crowd has ZERO respect for police and firefighters.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('PrestonSturges', 'O')ff topic, but the 14th Amendment says:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '
')Section 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.

I have to throw in a gratuitous insult just so people know I'm not agreeing with you. God you are a stupid mutant. Nothing personal.

Somehow, the poor always do what the elite say, even though they have nothing to gain and everything to lose. Look at the US Civil War, where hundreds of thousands of poor southern boys who couldn't afford a slave died fighting to save the institution of slavery. How many Germans died for Hitler? Poor idiots dying for the rich is nothing new. Do not be shocked.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('TITAN', ''')oh, but they have the same values as me!'... that's what you always here from these gun toting, trailer trash morons. they actually believe the right wing politicians that say they hate abortion and go to church.

You know...we may have went off-topic a bit, but I think the last few posts touched on a central fact that no one wants to really acknowledge. Why do people do the bidding of the elite? Text deleted. This is exactly why we can't get anything done here, becuase we're so damn divided.

[AgentR11]

If the left would stop trying to take stuff away from the poor that the poor want to keep, maybe they could end the division and win big.

You know, sometimes... apparent shared traits in a group are coincidental, not causal.

Groups of socially connect youths, with nothing to do, and not much in the way of hopeful prospects... usually turns out badly.

I'll always remember Rev Jackson giving speaking on crime, and mentioned, if he saw three black male teens walking the sidewalk towards his car, he'd lock the door... (pause) and he'd do the same if they were three white male teens. Its just common sense. Nowdays, where it was once easy to assemble three, now its easy to assemble fifty.

Second verse, same as the first.

Six, I mostly agree with your post. This issue of flash mobs is perceived as racial, but its cultural. There will be large groups of whites doing the same soon enough. The common thread will be sons of single mothers. Even Soros backed NPR had a piece about terrorist recently, one of the biggest common denominators, sons of single mothers.
One disagreement however, Japan's aged population is due to a decreased birthrate, and a shift in demographics. Immigration may be a solution, but its not the cause.

Preston, as usual your knowledge of healthcare, or any subject for that matter, is abysmal. For perhaps .1% of the folks involved your statement is true. In simplicity healthcare is based on costs, access, and quality/technology. If we want access for all, but have no money as a country, we will have to dramatically cut quality/technology. My suggestion would be to take a basic economics course first, perhaps read the book Freakanomics. Your poor white hating posts are as bad as black hating posts, just a different flavor of racism

This thread needs to be sent to the glue factory.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Pretorian', 'F')irst of all, there is no need to edit my posts to this degree. I said "" Don't know about Asia though, I wouldn't be surprised if people without a race aren't considered to be human at all."""
