Gibsonfender2323 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Just now, Whiskey Rose said: Yeah, I think one of the underlying issues here is "rudeness". It just really bothers me, and I don't think there's ever justification for being rude to someone just because you don't agree with their opinion or they don't seem educated enough for you. Unless someone has wronged you somehow, or you know directly where they have wronged someone else, there is just no need to be rude. It would go a long way toward healing our society instead of dividing it. Lets build each other up instead of tearing each other down.

Of course I think I'm right in my own opinions. Everyone does. The difference is I'm capable of engaging in a sincere discussion about the topic. As indicated in this thread, you clearly are not. And that's why you're banned from the politics thread. 10 minutes ago, Gibsonfender2323 said: This ladies and gentleman is why we have Trump as MY President its also why Brexit Happened. Frankly i give up arguing with you about politics because frankly I no longer give a shit about your opinon because you have no power in AMerican. So you have a shitty President and England has to deal with the misery of Brexit out of spite. Got it. And you have never once argued with me about Canadian politics. 10 minutes ago, Gibsonfender2323 said: If they have proper Identification then they shouldn't be separated but sense most of them don't we have no idea. I suggest you do some research about the Coyotes. The reality is you no next to nothing about what goes on at the border. The Trump administration imposed a zero-tolerance program that resulted in all kids being separated from their parents. Anyone over 18 were charged, whereas previously they were treated as civil violations. And under US law, anyone charged with a crime cannot be jailed with their children. It had nothing to do with coyotes. Read up buttercup: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-44303556 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say all your insults to me without one shred of irony which is hilarious. 11 minutes ago, downzy said: And you have never once argued with me about Canadian politics.

You have not demonstrated any real grasp of the issues. That's not an insult. That's a fact. 6 minutes ago, Gibsonfender2323 said: Because it's none of my business. As 1. I don't live in Canada 2.

I always thought that ''eh'' was a joke the Americans made at your expense in TV shows, but then I visited Canada and met several people who said ''eh'' quite often... imagine my surprise! 52 minutes ago, action said: speaking for myself, a lot needs to happen for me to turn my back on my sister. and by "a lot" I'm not even sure what that would be. Nothing in this world, nothing, can break that relationship for me. Yeah, I don't share that philosophy at all. I have plenty of family members that I haven't talked to in over a decade because we simply don't get along. I don't see the point in forcing a relationship with someone just because they're family.

But seriously, if you don't get along with someone, you don't become friends with them because there's no point, right? It's a waste of time and energy. So why try to have a relationship with someone in your family if you don't get along? It doesn't make sense to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's what I mean... not when you've had an argument but still love that person. I'm talking about never caring about each other because you're just very different people who would never even look at each other if it wasn't for the fact that you're related. I don't see the point in forcing something that isn't there to begin with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth quoting again actually, Quote On 8/26/2020 at 10:03 PM, DieselDaisy said: Maybe I'm naive here pertaining to firearms but I have oft wondered why they don't just shoot someone, who they deem is acting suspicious and potentially reaching for a firearm, in the leg.

If you have a gun pointed at his back, he would have to, - get gun from car - turn around and point -fire All in a shorter space of time than it would take you to simply fire!
