The people are in a lose-lose situation, they are the real refugees when they escape IMO
We, in the Western World cannot imagine the horrors they endure just to live to see the next sunrise...well actually, I shouldn't have said 'live', instead, I should have said "exist".

Without sounding racist, the vast majority of those countries in that position are either black or Asian.

It's a horrible reality to go through to have to choose between poverty or being murdered. Yeah I don't live there so I can't know what it is like, even as a relatively poor person I'm better off here than they are there.

I was not talking about you not calling a terrorist attack a terrorist attack. I was talking about all of us. That is why I said WE.

Ah, okay wasn't sure.

A terror attack is defined as an attack that is designed to create terror, and that is what it was and those who commit those incidents are by definition terrorists.

A terrorist attack is whenever an attack is meant to cause terror and fear and is usually accompanied by an ideology of some sort, but it's not necessary since some terrorists kill for no reason and do it for attention too.

I didn't call it not a terrorist attack, which it is. The night it happened I considered whether it might be an accident, or a terrorist, or an attack, etc but I decided to wait until I heard more information to be sure since either of those could've been wrong. That's just my way of keep my preconceived notions in check until I know for sure. Not everyone is like me though, I'm just cautious.

I would say "good article", but its mind boggling IMO.

oh I agree totally,
people are too quick to say everything is a terrorist attack nowadays...
its always best to let the story/facts unfold before pointing fingers one way or another.

Looks like it will be a record breaking audience watching the debate tonight. I think Hillary will win.
I'll have a ringside seat :biggrin:


Politics - CRAZY-HORSE - 27-09-2016

Ringside sums it perfectly being that it is a circus Linda...

You'll have Hillary lying her ass off and Trump opening his mouth and removing all doubt he too is unfit to hold the highest office in the land.

In the words of the great masters....let the show begin!

Also, the KISS song title Psycho Circus sums up precedings perfectly IMO


Politics - Lovely Linda - 27-09-2016

Psycho Circus, that's a good one :laugh:


Politics - Oceansoul - 27-09-2016

Well I'm guessing the debate will not be boring, at any rate. Hillary has a better chance at winning the debate, IMO. Let the madness begin, where's my popcorn? Big Grin
