While I accept that humans are to some degree altering the climate, I've come the opposite conclusion. And I'm not a veteran dating back to mid 2000's. I'm a veteran dating to the late 80's at which time I was very

How about (if we are going that direction) boarded and impounded first? Make a big show of releasing the perps back to their home country and keep the ships.

Palestinians (aka Philistines) originally weren't Semitic fwiw. They likely came from Southern Europe (the bible specifically mentions the island of Crete as their place of origin) arriving roughly the same time as the Hebrews who came

Symbolism doesn't also necessarily need to exist. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. My complaint was (and still is 30 years later) is that an entire cottage industry seems to have arisen around finding hidden meanings. Would we do tha

My take is he was sort of the Mike Judge of his time. Less a moralist, more a cynical and very amusing observer of human frailty.

I remember being stunned in high school that people would get degrees and an entire semester would be devoted to finding hidden symbolic meanings that authors in many cases obviously didn't intend. This was back when you could read Huc

I agree and I've seen the same. However as far as actual physical health (rather then mental or social) I believe cannabis to be far less detrimental. It might demotivate a person but it doesn't flat out kill them.

I drink but don't have one drink a week. The vast majority of weeks I have 0 drinks. Once in a great while I might have a couple of drinks (if I'm in the mood) but it's not a regular thing at all. I'm not morally opposed

#2: There are laws against incitement to violence already. But also there are people who bend this to claim anything they don't care for "could result in violence". To me the line seems fairly clear (if we are fair). That som

I believe that's pretty much the essence of DeSantis' approach. It would be nice to see rational equitable solutions as to who can speak and where though. It wouldn't be such a big deal if were back in the age of 100,000 tiny

Wow that's a lot of buzzwords in one post! Is a federal solution more likely to be effective for thefts under $950 or is a tailored localized solution?

While that's definitely true, people were building bridges for thousands of years before formal engineering was a thing. Of course some number of people probably died crossing those, and Golden Gate scale bridges weren't built. Ju

It's not completely "Biden's" policies (the federal reserve is not Biden) but inflation is being driven by much more then lack of computer chips. And to some extent it is deliberate. Inflation is a way governments can bo

Inequality has been largely driven by fiscal policy and this has been going on for some time, decades at least (if not centuries). I'm not a federal reserve basher, I understand the purpose. But some policies they promoted have resulte

I wasn't allowed a TV as a child. I credit this for learning to read very early (by myself for the most part). I always felt Sesame Street was some kind of leftist softie propaganda, but that may be a side effect of growing up in a cul

There's a lot to be desired in schools (In the US at least and I assume Canada) but one thing schools do do is bring people from many different backgrounds together for long periods of time. That in and of itself is educational for the
