I think the bigger problem is certain states don’t even require them to be permanent residents (green card holders) anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJT Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 4 minutes ago, Scouts Honor said: I listened to the Yuval Noah Harari Lex Fridman podcast that Azerbaijan news article in the photo is talking about (this wasn’t said at the WEF). I’m not even sure it’s justified to say they took him out of context in the article, either, because it’s not even close to what he said. He was just saying when looking at it from a systems perspective, it’s ridiculous to think such a small Kabal of people could control the whole world and all its happenings, because the world is so complex now. He said it amounts to scapegoating (like Hitler did with the Jews) instead of looking at problems and working toward solutions. What’s weird is the Azerbaijani article attacks Yuval as he’s sticking up for Palestinians in Israel right now, but Muslims still just see him as a Jew.

Thus, I don't see the appearance of a problem at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreatWhiteNorth Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 11 hours ago, DJT said: Federal law requires all law enforcement officers and sheriffs to be citizens. (Not on visa, not green card holders, but citizens, natural or via passing citizenship test). California, Colorado and now Illinois have laws circumventing that requirement. No, not true. That is an uninformed post, and not relevant to my original post. 20 hours ago, GreatWhiteNorth said: It's like now that immigrants get visas and can become police officers (after they went through training and passed all the necessary requirements.) ... As I said in my above quote - "went through training and passed all the necessary requirements.) Basic stuff here. Nobody, and I mean nobody, wants police officers that can somehow cheat to qualify. Law enforcement is a critical part of our society and no cheating should be tolerated. None. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't even make any sense here. Sweeping generalities about who? Poster initiated the Alean-song "small town" angry garbage. I responded with a deep-south, small town gif. Tell me how it's racist and I'll agree with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Aldean song is about how small-town folks can resort to violence if your presence/actions don't fit in and they deem them as threatening. Which - if you've watched the movie Deliverance - then you see the parallels. That was a messed up little town. Does that make all small-town folks, everywhere, inbreds and idiots? No, of course not. That would be silly and wrong. My GIF was posted to imply that a specific poster was posting like an uneducated half-wit. Which I stand behind. C'mon - it wasn't that hard to figure out.

Husker_Du Posted July 31, 2023 Author Share Posted July 31, 2023 'let me guess where you grew up' was the prelude. it's prejudicial. ah, the tolerant left. gotta love 'em. but keep your panties in a bunch over Jason Aldean while the entire rap world talks about shooting people.

headshuck Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 If the lyrics said try that [lawlessness, disrespect, violence] in the suburbs of [Chicago, Philadelphia, etc] where the writers live, would they have a different take? They love lumping half of America into a country basket of deplorables. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
