true.
Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to
ban you from driving to the ball game.
true.
I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, which is why there are no girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! ARE YOU
LISTENING MARTHA BURKE ?
true.
I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it is an opinion.
Kinda true, but some opinions are wrong (I am not gay btw).
I have the right 'NOT' to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird, or tick me off.
Wrong... you should be tolerant of others because the world would be a much nicer place if you are. plain and simple.
Reckless hate of someone because you dont understand them or agree with them does nobody any good, at all.
When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70% of the population is black, that is not racial profiling; it is the Law
of Probability.
true, if that were true.
Please list me a city in America where 70% of the population is black...
Perhaps certain sections are, but not the entire city itself, and then you have to ask, why are these areas 70% black, and why is it not as nice as
the area of the city where people are 70% white?
And lets take this a little further to the cities where 70% of the people are white and still the majority of people arrested are black... (No, I am
not black)
I believe that if you are selling me a milkshake, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of
fact, if you want to be an American citizen, you should have to speak English!
Sure, knowing the language would be nice, but no one is stopping me from moving to a country where I don't know the language. And how about the
majority of immigrants that speak better english than we do.
My father and grandfather didn't die in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours.
No, they probably died in wars that had absolutely nothing to do with us, oppressing other people, but thats not their fault either.
I think the police should have every right to shoot you if you threaten them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word
'freeze' or 'stop' in English, see the above lines.
Wow, this one is just crazy... so you think that someone's life is that invaluable? Well excuse me, but screw the cops, most of them are overzelous
and power hungry anyway.
I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you are qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans
or tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store, or any other business.
Just as much as anyone else...........
We did not go to the aid of certain foreign countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their freedoms, so that decades later they could
come over here and tell us our constitution is a living document and open to their interpretations.
Our constitution is garbage atm anyway, and I'm sure no one asked us to "defend their freedoms." This one is hilarious...
I don't hate the rich I don't pity the poor
I pitty the poor... its very unfortunate that a lot of hard working individuals cant support their family... and I hate the rich that keep getting
richer due to bail outs, loop holes, and lobbyists.
I know pro wrestling is fake, but so are movies and television. That doesn't stop you from watching them.
I think hes just rambling now...
I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more.. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next
operating system that's better, and put your name on the building.
Ok, thats fair.
It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take a parent to stand up to the kid; and smack their little behinds when
necessary, and say 'NO!'
I think there are much better ways to go about it, but if you want to do it the old caveman way sure, why not, your the one that has to live with
yourself.
I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement. And, please, stay home until
that new lip ring heals. I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you serve me French fries!
Ok, this is getting ridiculous now... what a bitter man. Tattoos and piercing are art and have been used as political statements throughout the
centuries. Look at old japanese samurais, shogunates, Thailand monks etc...
Whos the ignorant one?
I am sick of 'Political Correctness.' I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born in Africa ; so how can they be
'African-Americans'? Besides, Africa is a continent. I don't go around saying I am a European-American because my great, great, great, great,
great, great grandfather was from Europe .. I am proud to be from America and nowhere else.
Well, I suppose if I were enslaved for hundreds of years and till survived I would be proud of my heritage too...
And if you don't like my point of view, tough..."
ignorance at its finest.
Talk about the truth! Rooney pretty much said what a decent amount of Americans have been thinking for quite awhile but were too afraid to say
because of political backlash. Rooney also ended his segment by reciting the pledge of allegiance in full with no omissions
Sorry your so bitter as well. I didnt hear the truth at all. whats a decent amount of americans? because I dont have any friends who would agree with
this GARBAGE.
