     Location: In The Land of Cotton | Oh you should have heard the chewing I got for using it. The people said I was just hiding the fact that I couldn't use "n" in public. HMM, don't think so. A thug is someone who steals, beats people up, uses drugs, doesn't work, etc.,
It has nothing to do with race at all. | |

| lol boy did I get an ear full this morning for not 'understanding why they was LOOTING and BURNING buildings... "  I say was because that's the way they spoke to me. I was also told after saying " only uneducated children, that grow up into ignorant thugs burn their own city to the ground and then turn around and pretend it's method of protesting"
I was told I'm not black so I could never understand... I mentioned that a white person that did that and was arrested for would understand it just as much as the black person they're sitting next to in the cell.

They are the thugs. The Baltimore Mayor came out and just apologized for using the word thug. It's supposedly the code name for the N word. The drummer for Jimmy Fallon posted that on FB. It just can't make this stuff up. | |

Here's the deal; If there is enough damage, they can ask for federal disaster relief. That mayor was just hoping enough damage would be caused for her to get some cash her way. Every year each and every city has to prove to the federal goverment that they used all the allocated funds for things such as highway and road construction. If they don't use it all, then they will get LESS. So they make SURE to use it all and then some, appearing to need even MORE. Same thing applies here. The more damage, the more in federal relief. Its a nice chunk of change that helps the lazy balance the local budget. | |

See that is the thing that so many of the "entitled" generation don't get. I had the crap knocked out of me on a daily basis by a step mom when I was 5. I didn't ever see a therapist or blame anything on my past. I was raised by a single dad that wasn't there a lot because he was out busting his butt trying to make ends meet. I didn't grow up thinking I DESERVED what everyone else had, but I saw by my dad's hard work what he was able to accomplish the legal way. It's America still, not the same as it used to be, but we still have so many opportunities. When these THUGS of the lowest order pull this crap in their neighborhoods, I could care less what becomes of them. They are deadbeats, most are 4 & 5 generation of government leaches, most have a criminal record a mile long and most don't know who their daddy is. These are animals and they will never change. Law doesn't mean anything to them. Can you imagine if any one on this board went to town and lit a cop car on fire. My A$$ would be in the clink so fast. But no, these scum bags do this and it is caught on camera no less, but I bet not a one of them will see any jail time. I am a very peaceful and easy going person, but this stuff chaps my butt and were I the cops watching this stuff going on, I think a few rounds from a shotgun might stop things a bit. And for the record - I don't care what color a thug is, black, white, yellow or spotted-a THUG is a THUG. | |

Now that is apparently the term for a hit of a drug. Now it is the word "thug". Screw them. I am using them all. Well, maybe not "gay". | |

          Location: Bastrop, Texas | I honestly think that the Democrat powers-to-be actually are behind most of these crises. They want them to grow and divert attention away from the debacles that are of their doing, particularly Hillary's mounting scandals. This is giving her some time to reconfigure her lies and deceptions and takes the heat off her. In a sense, this is a "wag the dog" maneuver, and the thugs are their operatives. Democrats need deep divisions, misery, poverty, and chaos in order to survive. If their isn't enough, they create it themselves. They need victims......black victims, gay victims, impoverished victims, jobless victims, female victims, you name it. The paradox is that, in reality, they actually love all of those things they claim to be fighting against.
When any of those things seem to be decreasing, they stir it up, or even manufacture it. Why? Because a few select elites at the top can profit from it.....case in point, Al Gore. Case in point, the Clintons. Case in point, Obozo.

Come on, the conspirisy theory? No, just thugs, there is no planning or wisdom behind this stuff. How things haven't changed, I remember Watts. 20 years later the residents were complaining there were no business willing to rebuild their burned out neighborhood.

Our nation is SO worried about offending somebody, (ANYBODY - from the MUSLIM terrorists on down), we've had to become SO politically correct, we are turning into a bunch of pussy-foot wimps.
It seems like christians are the only exception to this rule. Prayer isn't allowed, it's not politically correct to say "Merry Christmas" anymore, the ten commandments can't be displayed publicly, abortion, evolution, you name it... the anti-christian views are increasingly accepted while christian views are increasingly condemned. The devil is hard at work in our society. Keep saying your prayers, people!

Bear - 2015-04-30 10:31 AM I honestly think that the Democrat powers-to-be actually are behind most of these crises. They want them to grow and divert attention away from the debacles that are of their doing, particularly Hillary's mounting scandals. This is giving her some time to reconfigure her lies and deceptions and takes the heat off her. In a sense, this is a "wag the dog" maneuver, and the thugs are their operatives. Democrats need deep divisions, misery, poverty, and chaos in order to survive. If their isn't enough, they create it themselves. They need victims......black victims, gay victims, impoverished victims, jobless victims, female victims, you name it. The paradox is that, in reality, they actually love all of those things they claim to be fighting against. When any of those things seem to be decreasing, they stir it up, or even manufacture it. Why? Because a few select elites at the top can profit from it.....case in point, Al Gore. Case in point, the Clintons. Case in point, Obozo.
Come on, the conspirisy theory? No, just thugs, there is no planning or wisdom behind this stuff. How things haven't changed, I remember Watts. 20 years later the residents were complaining there were no business willing to rebuild their burned out neighborhood. History ignored is history repeated.
Absolutely, I think there is an element of the progressive movement that does whatever it can to incite things like this. For example, Al Sharpton, the Black Panters, and a whole host of liberal Democrats who love to point out to people that they are victims. They have spent their lives dividing people. Victimology is their main tool. They feel owed because they are victims of racism, or sexism, or whatever. There is never enough welfare and "programs". They hold these people hostage to false hopes that are never delivered to a sufficient extent. Racism will never die because progressive liberals are the racists and they go to great lengths to preserve it. | |

Exactly. Who was Obama's "spiritual mentor" for 20 years prior to his being elected in 2008? "Spiritual mentor" was Obama's words.

I grew up with racism in a part of the south with a large black population. Some of my older relatives were blatant, unapologetic racists, but by far most of the racism I witnessed and experienced was not from white people (I was physically attacked twice in jr high for being white--the principal was scared to do anything about it and we all knew it). Things seemed to be getting better over time. Slowly, but I could see positive changes taking place. And then Obama came into office and started stirring the pot and we have been set back 50 years, according to my parents. I have never seen it this bad, and I THOUGHT I had seen bad. | |

Because they forget hating white ppl for being white is racism.. Not to mention they feel vindicated to act out against us now, saying we're suppressing them. I've never been racist, but I'm part of the generation that grew up in the reformed era. What I dont get is.. if america is SOOO racist as a whole. Why don't we see hispanics, asaian and other enthnic groups crying out about the oppressions? I get things need to be taken in hand with the police force... our goverment has WAY too much power to sweep things under the rub. A lot of black people HAVE died, but so have white people, hispanics, asians and other races. It's idiotic people are okay with saying 'black lives matter'. . . ALL LIVES MATTER. To seperate themselves the way they are by making it a 'black issue' ... is setting it up to be racial. . . it makes very little sense to me... | |

        Location: Kansas | Living in Kansas, I had never been exposed to anything I considered racism in the innocent bubble that I lived in (as a young person).....then one evening after a rodeo several of us went to a club on the outskirts of Wichita. We had a bareback bronc rider with us, nice looking, neat and polite and black. The owner of the club promptly asked him to leave. He left peacefully as if he was used to it and we all went with him. Whole new chapter in my life. | |

          Location: Bastrop, Texas | I always wondered what would happen if people started calling Obama a white president. After all, he's just as much white as he is black. I wonder if we will ever say a day when everyone is just lumped into one category......American. Wouldn't that be refreshing? I'd love to see the day when it becomes "politically incorrect" to refer to people by their nationality, color, or ethnicity. It will happen when minorities start demanding it more and more voiciferously. Some already are, but we need more. Politicians won't like the idea, because that kind of thing removes a powerful tool they use to divide us all. That's why they won't change important things in need of changing.....social security, income tax, etc.... | |

     Location: Arkansas | We were military from the early 50's to early 70's. Personally, I think it was a big mistake to do away with the draft. I see alot of these young hoodlums who would greatly benifit from two year's under the tutlage of a Drill S argent. By the time that Drill Sargent got through locking their heels' together and chewing on them, they'd have a trade, work ethic, disipline and a whole new vocabulary. | |

Your are describing my high school to a T, too. We had one black family move in and all of us were soo excited. The first year there the oldest daughter won a spot on the cheerleading team and on several UIL acedemic teams, her sister who was my age, played basketball and was one of the nicest most outgoing girls I have ever known. This was back in the late '70's/early '80's.
I am tired of the slave rhetoric. EVERY RACE HAS BEEN ENSLAVED AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER IN HISTORY! The black people are the only ones that can't seem to rise above it collectively as a race. GET OVER IT PEOPLE.

     Location: Arkansas | Itsme - 2015-05-01 1:09 PM Lobo - 2015-05-01 1:05 PM We were military from the early 50's to early 70's. Personally, I think it was a big mistake to do away with the draft. I see alot of these young hoodlums who would greatly benifit from two year's under the tutlage of a Drill S
argent. By the time that Drill Sargent got through locking their heels' together and chewing on them, they'd have a trade, work ethic, disipline and a whole new vocabulary. NO WAY! I dont want my kid fighting one of these fake ass wars we have nowadays.
Then, I can ass-u-me that you've taught your child to be a good citizen. By example. | |

They want them to grow and divert attention away from the debacles that are of their doing, particularly Hillary's mounting scandals. This is giving her some time to reconfigure her lies and deceptions and takes the heat off her. In a sense, this is a "wag the dog" maneuver, and the thugs are their operatives. Democrats need deep divisions, misery, poverty, and chaos in order to survive. If their isn't enough, they create it themselves. They need victims......black victims, gay victims, impoverished victims, jobless victims, female victims, you name it. The paradox is that, in reality, they actually love all of those things they claim to be fighting against. When any of those things seem to be decreasing, they stir it up, or even manufacture it. Why? Because a few select elites at the top can profit from it.....case in point, Al Gore. Case in point, the Clintons. Case in point, Obozo. Come on, the conspirisy theory? No, just thugs, there is no planning or wisdom behind this stuff. How things haven't changed, I remember Watts. 20 years later the residents were complaining there were no business willing to rebuild their burned out neighborhood. History ignored is history repeated. Absolutely, I think there is an element of the progressive movement that does whatever it can to incite things like this. For example, Al Sharpton, the Black Panters, and a whole host of liberal Democrats who love to point out to people that they are victims. They have spent their lives dividing people. Victimology is their main tool. They feel owed because they are victims of racism, or sexism, or whatever. There is never enough welfare and "programs". They hold these people hostage to false hopes that are never delivered to a sufficient extent. Racism will never die because progressive liberals are the racists and they go to great lengths to preserve it. I have never seen racism this bad or really never seen racism at all untill you know who became the Pres. We are so divided that its going to take decades to fix this mess, if it can be fixed. I grew up with racism in a part of the south with a large black population. Some of my older relatives were blatant, unapologetic racists, but by far most of the racism I witnessed and experienced was not from white people (I was physically attacked twice in jr high for being white--the principal was scared to do anything about it and we all knew it). Things seemed to be getting better over time. Slowly, but I could see positive changes taking place. And then Obama came into office and started stirring the pot and we have been set back 50 years, according to my parents. I have never seen it this bad, and I THOUGHT I had seen bad. I agree with all of this and I am actually shocked that a post about this is staying this polite. I grew up in Cheyenne where we had few black students. I can honestly say I don't recall anyone caring one way or the other. They were very well liked people, sports, got good grades etc. Can't remember a thug amungst them or even the white kids acting like thugs. Now this with the current Prez and I don't think we will see people of different races getting along for years to come. Your are describing my high school to a T, too. We had one black family move in and all of us were soo excited. The first year there the oldest daughter won a spot on the cheerleading team and on several UIL acedemic teams, her sister who was my age, played basketball and was one of the nicest most outgoing girls I have ever known. This was back in the late '70's/early '80's. I am tired of the slave rhetoric. EVERY RACE HAS BEEN ENSLAVED AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER IN HISTORY! The black people are the only ones that can't seem to rise above it collectively as a race. GET OVER IT PEOPLE.
Same here. I would say we were about 98% white, we had 2 special needs black twins and then 1 black girl that was very popular. Maybe 5 hispanics and 1 oriental guy. Everyone got along fine, and race wasn't an issue.
The only time we ever had any trouble was from guys coming from a mostly black school to ours during lunch starting trouble. Maybe it was a race thing... maybe it was because we were the closest school to them. Who knows. | |

I have to agree with the nope. I feel I am pretty bad A$$ and KNOW I could make it through basic. Not joining the military is my only regret and it was my own stupid fault because I was busy being 17 and bucking the system (my dad). My family for generations served in the Army and my dad wanted me to join as well. I was just hard headed. My point is that of all my friends and all the daughters my friends have since had, not a one of those is someone I would feel secure serving with. I don't think women in general are the best choice for military. The ones that DO serve, have my highest respect. I am not knocking them, but I don't think a draft for women would be in the best interest of this country. It should be a choice and let those women be the ones that make that choice. | |

So no choice if you are a man but choice if you are a girl. How does that relate to being a citizen of the country and doing your duty to serve same country. The draft as it stands at present is only in case of all out war. At that point why not women? | |

      Location: Prosser, WA | Obama really had the chance of a lifetime. He could really have made a difference by uniting this country. There are always going to be racists out there as long as there are different races. But we are at a point in our country where we have elected a minority as president twice. Thirty or forty years ago that never would have happened. I think as a country we have come a long way. Look at how many elected officials are minorities. I really feel it is a small amount of all races that are stirring this up. We had the Mexican guy shot by the cops in front of a bunch of people and on video in Pasco, not too far from us. My hats off to the local protesters. They have and are still protesting peacefully. There were some out of towners from Seattle, Spokane and Portland that came in and tried to stir things up. A good share of the local protesters complained about them and even cleaned up after them when they left. There are some that just live to stir up any kind of animosity they can. They had a video on Facebook of their chant. Black lives matter, Latino lives matter, all lives matter. Just seemed weird when the guy killed was Latino.Also the news has came out with the fact that one of the police officers that shot him had actually pulled this same guy away from a fire less than two months before. I'm not saying all police are innocent of any wrong doing I just don't feel that all of this is race related. | |

I am not a super feminist-sorry, nor do I feel we shoud be pregnant and barefoot in the kitchen. Woman can and have worked most jobs successfully. I feel women can do so many things, but a draft is so random and of all the women I know, I couldn't pick but a small handful that I would want to fight beside. Of all the men I know, maybe 10 would be a poor choice. Better odds therre. Men are stronger (in general), men can handle the situations brought about in war better (in general). How many little girls do you see playing Army and playing strategic war games. I just don't feel unless a woman enlists and gets through basic of her own accord, that they have any place in the military. I am not dissing women, but this is one of the things that SUCK about America. We need to stop trying to make everyone equal. We are not. Some are good at some things, others not so much. Just part of life. Go with what you are good at. And by the way, I have 2 boys. So it's not like I am trying to keep my daughters out of a war. I would be honored if my sons joined the military. My grandpa and his 2 brothers were drafted in WWII. My dad joined the day he turned 18 for the Vietnam conflict. He was sent to Germany instead which still bothers him to this day. He didn't join up to be sent to an allied country.

      When I was younger, I was all about the "girl power" and we can do anything a man can do..... However, with age comes wisdom and I realize God made the genders differently for a purpose. Women are stronger in some areas and men in others...we are designed that way on purpose. And you are 100% right we are not all created equally. Even if we are born of the same race and gender that does not automatically make us equals. People need to focus on how to build themselves into the best person they can be and stop blaming others.
And to all the protesters (the ones choosing volience and destruction....not those voicing their opinions peacefully). You are not being held down, repressed, held back..... by "Whites" ....it is your OWN STUPID choices as to why you are not making something of your life.

Let me state that I was drafted in 1969 so I got to see it up close and personal. Many do not make it past the physical or mental tests at the reporting station. Many more do not make it out of basic training. Most of the jobs in the military do not involve combat. If this can apply to men I see no reason it would not apply to women. To me it has nothing to do with being a feminist it has to do with duty to country. The draft is for emergency's under those conditions I see no reason why this should not apply to women. I am not trying to flame you. Just stating how I feel. To me in an emergency it's all hands on deck and that includes women. | |

              Location: Under The Big Sky Of Texas | Bear - 2015-05-02 9:56 AM I don't have a problem with women serving in the military, provided the same standards of fitness are applied to women and men, particularly in combat roles. I don't want to see women allowed into combat roles if they can't meet the same fitness standards that are applied to men. Actually, I can see where a brigade of physically fit women could be serious ass kickers, particularly if they all are synchronized and get raging PMS at the same time. Turn a brigade of these women with raging PMS loose in Iraq against ISIS and watch them run away like a covey of quail on the backs of their camels. In Israel, female conscription in the military is compulsory, with few exceptions......essentially the same as the draft.
You bet there would be some serious butt kicking, all the men have better get the heck out of the way LOL     | |

Vickie and others Doc...he's disillusional.
Bless his heart, he never knew what women, and girls did during WW2. From ferrying planes to working the plants to build the planes that flew, ammo plants, to keeping the farm going. Planting the wheat and corn, harvesting it, driving ambulances. And don't forget the nurses who were on Corrigador. While men went off to the many war's we've been involved in, the female's stepped up to plate to fill the void left.
Never ever make the mistake that women are the weaker sex. He doesn't know what it's like to push 7lbs. out that a little bitty hole....with no drugs! LOL
I've seen my daughter buck bales, bale hay, build fence, pull caves and anything else that needed to be done on a farm, then go in clean up and go teach a bunch of rowdy kids how to read for 8 hours. Come home, and do it all over again while getting a three course meal on the table! The worst thing she ever did was let her husband know that she could drive a tractor! By the way, she has two, TWO master degres!!
So Doc, don't tell me that women can't go into combat along side men. They may not have the brute strength to climb a wall....they'd just do it smarter!
I grew up during WW2 and saw it happen, how women and girls stepped up to the plate. I have no doubt they're tough enough and mean enough to load and shot to kill. .Sooo....where did you get your first hand imformation? | |

Lobo, please. I am very well versed in the roles women played in WWII. I know all the roles they played, and I applaud them....Rosie the riveter, office clerks, test pilots, nurses, drivers, etc.... One thing they didn't do was combat. It was as is should be. If you are so confident that most women are as physically capable to fight in combat roles alongside men, then what is your position on women conscripts in the draft? Since your daughter can pull calves and throw bales, should she be subject to the same draft as men and expected to fight in front line combat duty? Obviously some women can, and nowadays there are some that do, but what percentage?
My comments regarding the PMS regiment was an attempt at humor.....evidently it's not so funny, particularly if you as a reader, are suffering from PMS.
On a more serious note, I stand by my opinion that I don't have a problem with a woman serving in any capacity, provided the standards for physical fitness apply to both genders equally. I challenge anyone to come up with an acceptable reason for lowering standards based on gender. I haven't served in the military, but if I'm in a foxhole, up to my ass in alligators surrounded by the enemy, I'd much rather have someone there next to me who has had the same training and the same standards as I've had. Odds are that someone would me a man. Nobody can debate this. Women can squawk about equality until the cows come home, but you won't find as many chirping about it when that equality is applied to the draft and combat roles for women.
Now....if you want to talk about a man passing a 10 pound bowling ball out their rectum, I'll concede. Women are definitely tougher in that category!

Well, let's just take away all the doughnut and walk those bellies off on the men. You know, the belly where the belt buckle and holster hangs down around the pubic hair cause they don't make them big enough to go over their belly. Hand out mirrors so they can see if their tally-wacker is still there. LMAO | |

I have no doubt that women can pull their weigh in combat. They'excellent snipers, too. Ever see a woman head shoot a squirrel out of a tree. I say a head shot squirrl is no different than aiming at something more substantial. . I've saw an aunshoot four quail in a covey, out of an open window. {She only need four for dinner.} Covey never stopped eating.
Hell, women can already run 200 yard in 5 seconds,jump a fence, with a baby on their back, another in the oven, to catch a 3 year old in the bull pasture playing matador with a snorting Jersey bull. I guess men can do that too with a full pack and weapon.
Never met a tougher bunch than those women who served in the Isralia army.
It's a mans world...until the going get tough. That's when they call in the mean old *****'s to take up the slack. MAAHHAAAA

I agree with this, but it seems this department was sick of the fat a$$ doughnut eaters and tried to do something about it, but the women and their union want nothing to do with it.

But as I stated before, in drafting women especially 18 yr old girls (God help us), I think it will be more costly and time consuming to draft them, than what will actually make it and excel in boot camp and produce productive Marines, Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen (or should that be Airwomen). Why draft something where I feel you will get such a small % of a positive outcome. The way the world is and how young people are raised, I have to say I am a bit nervous about those young 18-22 yr old men as well. YIKES!!!

I haven't served in the military, but if I'm in a foxhole, up to my ass in alligators surrounded by the enemy, I'd much rather have someone there next to me who has had the same training and the same standards as I've had. Odds are that someone would me a man. Nobody can debate this. Women can squawk about equality until the cows come home, but you won't find as many chirping about it when that equality is applied to the draft and combat roles for women. Now....if you want to talk about a man passing a 10 pound bowling ball out their rectum, I'll concede. Women are definitely tougher in that category! Anybody who can make the cut should be allowed to do the job. Black, white, male, female, gay, any religion.... NONE of those things has anything to do with whether an individual can do the job or not. Go through the process, training open to anyone who can pass the tests to get in and choose people with the best skills for the task at hand. This is how I feel. If they can make the grade, perfect. But as I stated before, in drafting women especially 18 yr old girls (God help us), I think it will be more costly and time consuming to draft them, than what will actually make it and excel in boot camp and produce productive Marines, Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen (or should that be Airwomen). Why draft something where I feel you will get such a small % of a positive outcome. The way the world is and how young people are raised, I have to say I am a bit nervous about those young 18-22 yr old men as well. YIKES!!!
Exactly.....it's a low yield proposition. Probably talking less than 10% of female recruits who can make the grade, physically. | |
