Pataki would qualify as a moderate in the republican party but he would never be the “establishment” candidate. His views aren’t respected at all by their people, he has less than 1% of the votes, and their base prefers far right crazies like Cruz over him.

The solution would be just more feminists in law enforcement. A feminist, male or female, is better than a misogynist, male or female. Though I think it is likely that more women would be better at handling rape/domestic violence cases since women tend to be more empathetic towards both male and female victims of…

Saudi Arabia and their spread of Wahabbism played, not only major, but the ONLY role that caused ISIS. U.S. may have had certain policies that indirectly ended up helping with the creation of these Salafi Jihadist groups but the U.S did not play any sort of “major role” in the creation of ISIS

Wahhabism is what led to ISIS and Taliban, Al Queda, Boko Haram.

A dude with horrendous sexist attitudes is a dude who believes the other half of human population is inferior to him. They don’t think treating half the population as inferiors will help them protect their religion from those waging a war against it. They’re entitled jerks! That’s the problem with them! Yes, even…

“when they secretly condone what ISIS has done”

Depending on how close that family member is, you can actually help them change their ways. Many homophobes/racists/bigoted people come around to being better human beings after having positive influence of family members. I would recommend treating that family member with love and compassion and try to help them see…

I can’t believe he didn’t mention that his daughter Ivanka is jewish as well. She converted before she married her husband, who’s jewish (and a strong democrat)

Definitely. None of the other Julia Roberts seem to have had that experience and as the famous Julia Roberts pointed out, even the white man who stole her credit cards didn’t have any problem using her credit card.

She didn’t consent to being penetrated with a foreign object does win her case in my opinion. So that I agree with. I don’t see any other part of the story being anything like someone tricking you into thinking he’s the man you married, to have sex with you though. That was the part I was objecting to. This case is…

Those are UK courts. I don’t know what law applies there but I was talking about American law to have a discussion about whether this would be something illegal under our law and if not then should it be, and if so then why.. I see it as someone making up who they are. So if someone named Joe Schmo goes by a different…

She did not think she was having sex with someone that actually existed. There is only one person that she knew in this scenario. That is the person she had sex with. In the scenario where it is your romantic partner, there is a person that exists who you think you’re having sex with. If you’re dating/married to…

I don’t see how its different, as long as the person is agreeing to have sex with the person she’s fucking. If something about who the woman thought that person was turns out to be a lie (wealth/sex/race) then that is different from the person not physically/mentally being that person.

I don’t think its like that. The crime there isn’t that some rando fucked someone’s wife, like you put it, but that someone tricked someone into having sex when that person was thinking they were another particular person. This is more like having sex with someone while pretending to be a rich person. Someone might…

I agree on being annoyed by Sanders because of his supporters, most of whom seem to be certifiably insane and complete douchebags. I also agree with Hillary’s foreign policy more but I don’t believe that makes me a bad liberal. She has shown great diplomacy during her time as secretary of state: normalization of…

You can’t possibly tax wall street enough to have free college. That’s NOT possible and if you don’t believe me then try doing the math yourself and you’ll realize how foolish you were to believe that is possible. If you want free college then middle class would also need to be taxed significantly more than we are…

She never insinuated that Sanders is a sexist. Pointing out implicit bias embedded in our society that result in women being perceived a certain way is pointing out a societal problem that effects us all. Something I’m sure all women and minorities can relate with that and the only way to eradicate that is to first…

I was too and I think thats what the OP point was. Police assault/brutality against women is not talked about enough. Once in a while a story surges when its a pretty looking gal who is shot for driving next to a cop or has her face slammed to the ground causing her to be hospitalized but there’s hardly any attention…

Add domestic violence to that also. Just couple months ago there was a story about a case of one woman who had tried to file rape charges against a man and of another woman domestic violence against the same man. The cops did not take it seriously, didn’t investigate AT ALL, harassed the women and actually recorded it…

Its not instituting sexist policy in the other direction. I didn’t see where it said, institute policy that prevents male justices in the supreme court. She answered a stupid question that was inherently saying a certain number of women on the supreme court is enough. She responded with a clever answer that lets the…
