Sounds unfair to me. Can you get your hands on a copy of The Declaration of Independence?

Could it be that there’s a similar effect on government or military programmers?

Beware taking anything that guy says for any value, this is simply not true. The visa, which is a near enough match to what is available from many countries, has a vetting process and would not be honored for any terrorist. However, if a known terrorist offered $5 million to come here, the FBI would be happy to arrange a meeting at the airport, much as your IRGC might greet one of our CIA or military officers.

And there’s no guarantee that taking Khamenei out would solve that. They just might replace him with someone just as bad, or worse. You guys will have to do at least the first part, on your own. I don’t like their kids living here, and personally wouldn’t allow it, but many here would be against punishing someone for whom their parents are.

@Undefeated A common attitude here is that if it gets uncomfortable enough, the Iranians will change their leadership, one way or another. We know from past experience that if we do it for you, it will create chaos and resentment for us. Even when your economy is down your leadership spends exorbitantly on terrorism and nuclear weapons . That’s what we want to stop. So our gov’t tries to keep them pinched down as much as possible. The average American doesn’t hold ill will for the average Iranian, or average Russian, or average Chinaman, but until we figure out how to get by without governments, we’re the ones stuck holding the bag.

He placed third in New Hampshire and was awarded 2 delegates.

That’s odd. Huntsman dropped out of the 2012 race after the New Hampshire primary, so he was never in a presidential election. According to wikipedia, the only source I’ve yet to find that has a complete list of candidates, he wasn’t on Arizona’s primary ballot. Were you in New Hampshire in 2012?

Nope. It fits the definition of a holding facility for deportees.

Arizona has closed primaries. He registered as a Republican in order to cast a sabotage vote in Republican primaries.

Some of us know the definition of concentration camps.

This is not true, either. So many abortions consist of sadistically dismembering the baby’s body. Taking it out piece by piece. You are terribly ignorant on this subject. Fact Sheet: Dismemberment Abortion https://lozierinstitute.org/fact-sheet-dismemberment-abortion/

I see the problem here.

You’re transparent, made more obvious by your alluding to your dad and grandad.

You are full of yourself. Abortion was criminal for the first couple centuries in this country. FIFY

Disingenuously, no doubt.

Prove it. Quote it. Somehow substantiate your statement, dimocrat.

Said it could be tomorrow.

Let’s see you support this statement with scripture.

Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. H. L. Mencken

Something just reminded me that you don’t have to go back to JFK, just look at what happened to RFK Jr when he tried to be a dimocrat.

And another win:

This is destroying the dimocrat party.

Why are insurance companies leaving Florida? The big question is: Why are insurance companies pulling out of Florida? The reasons behind the home insurance crisis in Florida are complicated, but several key factors have a big impact. Soaring litigation costs. The Insurance Information Institute (Triple-I) published a brief on the Florida insurance crisis. It noted that a 2017 State Supreme Court decision allows courts to award a plaintiff's attorneys two to two-and-a-half times their hourly billing rate when courts rule in favor of policyholders. The result is more lawsuits. Triple-I says Florida accounts for 79% of insurance lawsuits filed, with only 21% in the rest of the country. An increasing number of reinsurers who have chosen to retreat from the state in the face of rising litigation. The Florida market is home to several smaller insurers who rely heavily on reinsurers and the booming housing market along coastal counties, which are more prone to flooding and hurricanes. Severe weather. Those hurricanes are incredibly costly; Hurricane Ian caused $113 billion in damage and Hurricane Helene and Milton caused billions more. The bottom line? Florida homeowners are projected to pay higher rates and find it more difficult to get coverage at all as Florida insurance companies in trouble look to reduce risk or leave altogether. https://www.insurance.com/home-and-renters-insurance/home-insurers-leaving-florida You just knew it had something to do with the government.

What form do you use for Chinese and Russian bribes?
