  1. My man Zinke is likely interior of secretary. Not a total win, given his abortion stance ( of which he has no influence here) and his take on oil and gas...but he did call Hillary the anti-christ. For that, I salute him.

    Frau Merkel is now on the fake news bandwagon and blaming Russia for the world's ills. Not creepy at all.

    Can I ask you a question, do you not believe Putin has numerous reasons to interfere in the elections of various Western countries?

     

    His objective is a failure but that doesnt mean they wont interfere

     

    He has reason. Given the political climate of the EU, he certainly hasn't been effective.  Not even a little bit. That Merkel would co-opt a U.S media narrative so readily is more disturbing. But then, we know how reliable German media is based on their reporting of last new year's eve.

    So he's at Arkane then. Working on a watered down version of the original Prey 2. Sad!

    You've played Prey 2017 and Prey 2 to make the comparison? That's some impressive time travel and dimensional shifting.

     

    Well let's be honest, it looks ****e compared to the original bounty hunter angle.

  4. So is the latest frothing-at-the-mouth paranoia over Trump answering a SK phone call justified, or is it much ado about nothing? Shouldn't the media pace themselves here? They have 4 years of scare tactic to dole out. What happens if he does something monumentally dangerous, and we all yawn because the New York Times has cried wolf 500 times already?

    I could totally go for California seceding. They've been brilliant in electing a celebrity governor. Because celebrity matters the most in CA! Genius level decision making from the left and right in CA. So yeah, please do detach, like some regressive cancer from the rest of the country that values logic and free thinking, and isn't mired in Hollywood celebrity.

     

     

    Yeah...

     

     

    Alright I was projecting a bit there. :p

  6. If you lived and grew up in California, but don't currently reside there and haven't for a few years, can you still call yourself a Californian? Or am I now an ex-Californian? :(

    Given the SJW culture that has quite frankly infested the state, be it their universities or the bay area, I'd personally lie about being Californian just like many lie about being American when they travel abroad. I mean, who wants that stigma?

  8. Wow, you folks are nuts. I mean, I'm crazy, I'm sure, but seeing you guys is like a field trip to the Patton state hospital. Does make me laugh out loud, though. I don't see why it's bad that women should be required to sign up for the draft. The assumption should not be that they're required to fight on the front lines. They just need to sign up to serve. If it comes down to the draft, we're going to be in such dire straights we'll probably take anyone who can heft a gun because it'll be an 'only bullets can stop them now' situation.

     

    Vietnam war is a wrench in your logic there. We can't be certain women would only be drafted in a desperate situation rather than a politically misguided deployment.

  9. I'm sure all the guys suffering from PTSD will be happy to know that killing is perfectly natural to them, and they need to get over it.   :blink:

     

    This thread:

     

     

    More natural than it is to women. Allowing gender politics to overrule biology is reckless and immoral.

    "What kind of man lets a woman take a bullet for him?"

     

    You'd rather take a bullet for a woman?

    I wouldn't force women to fight in the first place. There's no equality on this issue, men are natural killers, women are not. If they volunteer, that's a different story.

     

     

    This. I thinking drafting women is uncivilized for a number of reasons. If they want to fight, ok, but they have to be placed in suitable combat situations. Front lines or close quarter combat, they just wouldn't be as effective. Also, women combatants would have much more to lose if they were captured by the likes of Isis. 

  11. I've never heard him say anything ridiculous. But I'm not exactly a Chomsky scholar either

     

     

    "Hitchens and Harris are religious fanatics worshiping the state." I was dumbfounded when I saw this retarded analysis by a so called intellectual. It's the debate equivalence of calling someone nasty, taking his ball and going home. That's the best he could muster. Compare this to Sam Harris' willingness to engage with his opponents one on one, and Chomsky seems like a joke to me. At least politically.
