He said, "What blows my mind is the disparity of response. When we think people that are foreign are going to kill us and us killing ourselves…We invade two countries and spent trillions of dollars and lost thousands of American lives and now fly unmanned death machines over like five or six different counties, all to keep Americans safe. We’ve got to do whatever we can—we’ll torture people. We’ve got to do whatever we can to keep Americans safe. But nine people shot in a church— ‘Hey, what are you going go to do? Crazy is as crazy is, right?’ That’s the part that, for the life of me, I can’t wrap my head around. And you know it’s going to go down the same path."
He's right. It seems like when the threat comes from without, we are willing to do anything, even surrender some of our rights to fight it, but when it comes from within, we throw up our hands and say, "Oh well. Nothing we can do about it."

That one has the smell of satan about her.Misty » 21 Sep 2014 6:55 pm » wrote:Gotta love Facebook drama.
This comment was posted by TwistedGypsyChild from .org to vincubus, when I was chatting with him on Facebook.
(At least this **** vapid **** can spell committed.)
And the dutiful slave immediately dropped me from his friend's list.
Can you say whipped?
Of course neither of them had the balls to tell me what I supposedly did.
Apparently Jamie the habitual liar wanted to have this **** vapid **** as a Facebook friend, as she has repeatedly sent me friend requests that I have wisely chosen to ignore.
It's like **** high school. Vin isn't allowed to be my friend because I'm not friends with Jamie. LOL
I think she dumped poor Vin AGAIN soon after that.Cannonpointer » 22 Oct 2015 7:01 pm » wrote: That one has the smell of satan about her.

They started talking about the 2016 election the day after the 2012 election was over.
I don't want to listen to that **** for 4 years.
Anyway there isn't a candidate worth a damn on either side.
