  1. Yes Volo, I know charges were filled. I meant to say " the charges were dropped " And I support the idea that it is quite possible for a man or women to be driven to the point where they could want to hire a hitman to kill there partner. They do this because of the cycle of abuse and fear and divorce is just not an option
  2. Interesting, that's some tough eating goals you have set yourselves especially if you use those things regularly I assume this is for weight loss? Do you both want to lose weight and what exercise are you incorporating into your health program? No changes in exercise. It's not specifically to lose weight, although that will most probably be a side effect. It's just a thing we wanted to do. We both know that we would not be able to fast for real, so we at least agreed to try something and we ended up with this. But why do you want to do it, there must be some objective or reason?
  3. Yes I did and I don't think the judge is a complete idiot There is obviously evidence we don't know about that helped make the judges decision So nothing to see here Volo... "move along now "
  4. Speaking of death threats, I was on my way to do groceries today, and I heard a conversation between a grandpa and a 6 year or so old little boy today. "Grandpa?" "Yes?" "I'm going to shoot you dead." "Oh, oh. That's... nice." They should arrest the little bugger. But that kid needs some lessons on acceptable public statements? I never use to say things like that at that age, just the thought I could shoot my grandfather dead would be inconceivable ?

  6. Except when you debate with SJW and feminists they generally have the moral high ground even if sometimes there intentions are misplaced Bull, Morals concern itself with righteousness which most people regurgitate the words of others with the hope that their digestion will be consumed by others. They have no idea what the moral high ground is because most people never had their morals challenged; specially those that come from echo chambers(from both ends of the spectrum) Also, who cares if they hold the moral high ground, moralist would reject a tracheotomy on the basis that is harmful when they know nothing of what is trying to accomplish. Imbeciles with self righteousness are more dangerous than those without, because they spread their stupidity. And when they enable some other law that's going to be abused by the "fairer" sex because of it, it will bring feminism closer to its self fulfilling prophecy. Is bad enough that men aren't getting married, now it seems they have to be pushed away from relationships and casual intercourse. Sure I can agree that people sometimes claim to have moral superiority but in fact they are just trying to enforce some kind of outdated dogma that is actually conservative in its belief But I'm not talking about that kind of perspective when I say SJ high ground. I mean when people say " a person should not discriminated against because of there sexual orientation"
  7. This... No words. Only silence. I'm not shocked, it appears the husband was a violent and abusive man. No wonder no charges were filled against his wife?
  8. I'm aware that's how you feel, thus Also, I wasn't trying to tell you they have different ideas that you think are wrong, I was trying to tell you your use of moral high ground was flawed, and that you description of how you expect us to feel about debating with sjws is like exactly the same as our description of how we expect you to feel debating about Africa, thus Volos statement is extraordinarily true and sensible. You are confusing my view on SJW to what the issues are that Africa faces, they are very different. The only thing they have in common is that some of the steps Africa needs to take are related to widely accepted SJ values Things like you cannot have a president for life. Two terms only The AU ignores its own charter when it allows member countries to flagrantly disregard certain parts of the charter, like not respecting peoples sexual orientation. We see appalling homophobia in certain African countries. How can we take the AU seriously when it cannot even follow its own rules? I can name many more issues but I think you get my point
  9. This is a good video and an interesting response to that other video Is this proof that guys also get harassed? Or is this making another point ?
  10. Except when you debate with SJW and feminists they generally have the moral high ground even if sometimes there intentions are misplaced I'm not so sure about that... Well think about it, most of the time the criticism against SJW is that they are only looking at one side of the debate and trying to implement change is society when its not necessarily relevant. Its not suppose to be malicious ? Having the moral high ground means being morally superior to their opponents, they don't need to be flat out malicious to not be better than the people telling them to go to hell. You could probably also say the exact same thing about the people you were debating with, I highly doubt they seek to destroy Africa, I just think they have different ideas on how to improve it than you. True, they do have different ideas. But that doesn't change the fact there ideas are wrong

  12. Just watched episode 3 of American Horror Story, it was very good. Especially the Edward Mordrake character
  13. Wow that's an excellent link, it really makes you even more excited especially when you consider all the possible party interaction

  15. Volo you keep saying " equalism ", whats the difference between that word and gender equality ?
  16. As I mentioned before I love your lifestyle and the environment you live in, " listening to the coyotes" I have a real picturesque view of where you stay. I can still imagine you saying " and then huckleberry sailed past me on his raft looking for further adventures down the great river "
  17. Vals I had a frustrating debate with people last night on this radio talk show I listen to , we were discussing African leaders and the failure of the AU. And there were several people who believe in conspiracy theories and were blaming the state of Africa and factors like Capitalism and Colonialism So they were like debating with you but they not as intelligent as you. You don't understand how annoying it is because you just want to scream at people and say things like " how can you believe something so silly "
  18. I am leaning towards Hurlshot perspective on this debate, its not as easy to resolve these types of events as you guys are suggesting. We must remember the context
  19. I am planning on getting into a serious debate tonight on this talk show I listen to, the topic coming up is "What is the issue with African leadership" Should be very interesting
  20. Gratz, thank goodness you will now be closer to some decent brothels and strip-clubs
  21. What was the surgery for? Exploratory? She has chronic pancreatitis. A couple years ago, her pancreas flared up and she was in the hospital for about a week. They don't really know what caused it, possibly her birth control pills. Since then she has been on a restricted diet and takes enzymes with every meal to help process fat and sugar. She had a flare up again recently, but it wasn't quite as bad. The problem is it has not improved at all (although it hasn't gotten much worse) so they want to take a closer look. It's not really clear why it is happening. We get an MRI next. Sorry to hear that, my thoughts are with you
  22. But this event is much more nuanced than " lets bring the SJ brigade on-board and express our outrage " For me I support real SJ issues, so I am interested in how relevant this video is. And what I mean by that is there have been several opinions on this thread that have made me question how clear cut the point this video is making As I said in the beginning this video was being discussed on a prominent South African radio talk show in the 4-6 am slot So I plan to call in tomorrow morning early and give a different perspective. And I'll be honest several views on this thread have helped me with that opinion
  23. Funny enough one of the reasons I questioned the accuracy of this video but I didn't say anything was "how come it seems to be only African Americans who are commenting on her " Its like they selected certain neighbourhoods to do this social experiment? It does seem a little slanted ? Well done Malc, you have this uncanny ability to find certain interesting links
  24. Not sure if trolling..... No, my comment is real? That's exactly what the video is suppose to demonstrate. Not sure why you think I'm trolling?
  25. It must be a very sad place where you live in. I (or people here) never had any issues with people greeting you or approaching you. Maybe because a lot of people here are tourists asking for direction or something. But in general I don't have this fear of insane people around every corner. If normal looking people greet you politely you respond politely. I did run into a few crazy people on the streets, but those were the one that talk to themselves and you wonder what they are doing on the streets and not in a loony bin. That video looks so staged it's hillarious. Again just to clarify, obviously you can pick up on people who have different motivations (tourist, lost or confused person, someone who needs help), but I just said that as general advice for visiting big cities. I would agree with the desire to not respond to those people though. My mom used to greet people like that and she got followed by the crazies CONSTANTLY until people finally told her to stop being an idiot and acknowledging them. Wasn't saying "omg be paranoid at all times," it's just generally a good idea to seriously size people up and unless a practical motivation is obvious (business, requesting help, etc), best not to acknowledge in bigger cities. And again that's exclusive for bigger cities, not everywhere else. Is your mom hot? It may explain why guys were following her ?
