[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;50786964]Yeah I'm not going to deny that there's more violence being reported on than ever before, that there may even be more violence out there in general, that's not something I'm arguing. I'm arguing, no, I'm asking, how does Trumps response to Orlando make people want to vote for him, when there's nothing him presiding over the nation would have changed?[/QUOTE]I have no idea, I've never bought the immigration bullshit since we've always been strict on immigration. Actually we seem to have more extremists [I]going out[/I] than coming in, [url=http://www.businessinsider.com/minneapolis-isis-problem-2015-9]my home state has a problem with this[/url] which is bizarre since we never make the news for anything related to this shit.
They're replaying their music video muted
[QUOTE=-nesto-;50786967]You need to reevaluate Martin's post that triggered you. He, I assume, supports Trump not because of his immigration but because the left ignores the cause of these tragedies, in this case a radical ideology, and instead goes gungho on gun rights.[/QUOTE] Okay, no, you see, you did exactly what "triggered" me. You fucking ignored reality to push a political agenda. This dude was born in YOUR country. He spent his whole life there. Yes his father may have been what he was, but please for the love of fuck, if you're going to act like Trumps policy here would have fixed this, you have to explain how. The dude was born here. So, how does immigration fix that? Crazy people who do crazy shit are born in the US, so lets.... crank up on immigration? Do you see why I'm "triggered" by the obvious(to me) disconnect in the thought and the solution?
[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;50786943] feel free to act like I'm an idiot[/QUOTE] Well you act like one I never brought up Trump until you replied to me asking about his policies. All I did was add to your statement that he was an American citizen because you conveniently left out the part that he was raised by a radical.
OKAY WE GET IT DNC GUNS ARE BAD WOMEN ARE AWESOME AND BLACK PEOPLE ARE FANTASTIC I THINK WE CAN ALL AGREE HERE CAN WE GET TO OBAMA NOW?

What's with Tim's eyelashes
Why is Tim struggling to speak Spanish?
[QUOTE=JumpinJackFlash;50787052]Why is Tim struggling to speak Spanish?[/QUOTE] Maybe he struggled in Spanish class too, and never practiced.
Tim looks more trustworthy than Hillary. Can we just put Tim in the White House instead of Hillary? Edit: Nvm, this guy is a terrible speaker...
I don't understand why they insist on deliberately speaking Spanish despite the de facto language in the country is, in fact, English and has never been anything but. Holy shit no wonder why conservatives dig in their heels and feel like they're under threat. I feel like I'm in some crappy Deus Ex fanfic where the corporate interests are clumsily brainwashing everyone using stupid catchphrases and bad music and I can see through it. This election is fanfic levels of dumb.

This election is fanfic levels of dumb.[/QUOTE] They are doing literally everything to get the latino vote. Emails from their DNC leak showed that the democrats believe latinos vote based on loyalty and trust, especially from within their family, and they believe that this election will set the latino vote for the next 40 years. [editline]27th July 2016[/editline] How long has this guy been speaking...
That Senate funny story was terrible...
[QUOTE=patq911;50787092]it was 2 lines in a much larger speech. over 37 million americans speak spanish (about 11% of the population)[/QUOTE]Did you miss the past two fucking days where it was Latinos talking about "familia" and then rambling on in Spanish? You don't see how somebody construe an "agenda" out of that? And then dig in their heels and become even more entrenched in their views? So then any slight turns into some big, overarching bullshit (i.e. "the war on Christmas") that has no right to be as big as it is. There's some saying about flies and honey that describes this situation quite well. [editline]oh wow[/editline] Now we're chanting in Spanish. This goes well beyond "2 lines in a much larger speech."

[QUOTE=-nesto-;50786626]Hillary has the support of our generals and admirals! [I]She polls at ~14% with the armed forces[/I] Now they are taking Bin Laden away from Obama. It wasn't his success, it was hers :v::v::v: Lost respect for Panetta[/QUOTE] Did they really try to argue that Hillary had more to do with bin laden's assassination than Obama?
This guy is a terrible speaker Bring on Obama already
Hillary is consistent, says Tim Kaine.

I mean, how can Republicans even compete? The Democrats are literally campaigning on basically getting rid of the border and letting illegals come over and enjoy all the benefits of citizenship without even having to learn the native language.
[QUOTE=VenomousBeetle;50787114]Did they really try to argue that Hillary had more to do with bin laden's assassination than Obama?[/QUOTE]"She was there saying 'we gotta go after bin Laden.'"

[QUOTE=JumpinJackFlash;50787125]"She was there saying 'we gotta go after bin Laden.'"[/QUOTE] Wow guys where's my fucking medal I've been planning the assassination since I was in 2nd grade
Omg this guy is so boring with his anecdotes and his jokes. So many cringe moments.
[QUOTE=Chaitin;50787148]Omg this guy is so boring with his anecdotes and his jokes. So many cringe moments.[/QUOTE] My first impression of Tim Kaine was him awkwardly stammering "semper fi" a second time because the first one didn't get the applause he was expecting. He looked like one of those guys that says the punchline of a bad joke twice hoping to suck a little more laughter out of the crowd.

It's really annoying to see that and then people [I]wonder, for some dumb, unexplained fucking reason why people are seriously voting for Donald Trump.[/I] There's plenty of opportunity to reach across the divide and go, "hey, buddy, calm down... just calm down, it's gonna be okay," but it's passed over in face of "IT'S <CURRENT YEAR> OK??? LMAO DUMB RACIST TINY PENIS WHY ARE YOU SCARED?" It's with everything, you can almost predict it as it happens because it's a stream of emotional appeals, "shaming," and eventually epithets and literal body shaming designed to emasculate. Fortunately there's middle of the road people like me who can sometimes cut through the mental barriers people have constructed just to keep fucking sane in this country.

spanglish thats insulting to both languages
[QUOTE=patq911;50787173]no one says that, you assume people say stuff like that but no one says that.[/QUOTE]People do actually say things like that. This is the post word for fucking word: [quote]<JJF> why are you even afraid of progress??? do you vote for trump because your racist or because you have small hands LOL because <random chick> talks about how tiny your little <reference to my real name> really is. conservativsm is dead so get over yourself because its 2016 and we need NEED a woman president in office to keep men like you in check. MEN have ruined this country for like a hundred years so when we say CHANGE we need and and mean it!! shut up next time you want to post some racist bigoted ammosexuals BS!!! on <friends page> because she speaks her mind you wont silence us and you WONT NOT STOP PROGRESS[/quote] That's what I was referencing, I read it on Facebook while I was typing up my last post.
