I’ve read those tweets over like 10 times and I feel like missing something. I don’t understand what she’s trying to say. She thinks calling the dressing “oriental” is weird which to me sounds like she is agreeing that it is offensive. I don’t get it. No one was ever calling her “oriental”.

its not a question of why does she do it, its a simple question of frames per second ratio. a ten stone bird could not carry a six ounce phone for five thousand six hundred and seventy minutes.

Every member of that family is so far up his/her respective ass, I’m amazed they haven’t all just turned inside out.

I’m pregnant too (third trimester) and a little old lady recently asked me to give up my seat for her... so I thought. Sure, I’m young and my feet don’t hurt yet. But it turns out she just wanted a second seat for her bag! That is where I got kind of peeved.

Not sure I like the idea of giving seats to pregnant women any more than I like expectant-mother parking spaces. Ladies are strong enough to not need such coddling.

I don’t support the pregnant lifestyle so giving up my seat would just make me an enabler. I’d be angry at myself all day for encouraging pregnant behavior.

olivia wilde somehow i doubt was giving up her seat to old folk all the time before she got pregnant

Fortunately/unfortunately countries can be selective about who they want immigrating. If you offer a distinct skill set or are seeking education it makes the process a slight bit easier.

. I was obviously oversimplifying to prove a point [..snip..], but it is a statement of fact. People that don’t have a reason to commit a crime, largely don’t commit crimes.

You do of course realize that none of the Andes survivors actually killed anybody right? I’m not sure if you were just too lazy to do the research or if you’re actively being dishonest here and held that back because it undermined the point you’re trying to make.

You could try that on a small-scale. No, really.... Let homeless people live at your house. Report back on how that goes for you.

All of those huddled masses used official immigration channels. Ellis island wasn’t a tourist destination, lol.

I’m in Dublin, not that far from you and have plenty of friends living in Germany who travel back and forth on a very regular basis who have recounted their own experiences on top of the news articles almost daily about attacks. You’re not aware of ANY of it right?

So you ignored the Sky news and BBC articles right? Throw them all out?

It’s an outright statement of fact that I wouldn’t have to illegally steal your car if I could legally drive off with it.

No high horse. I just don’t condone somebody trying to hijack and innocent trucker. I will agree the refugee issue needs to be resolved, but at the source not by rehoming entire countries elsewhere in the world.

This was never official and was written by a poet trying to raise funds for the construction of the statue. it was not written by the founding fathers or any other major american historical figure.

Fortunately that is not current foreign policy nor does it hold any legal standing. It is a nice sentiment but holds no real worth. The truth is, a quip regarding immigration and foreign policy cannot begin to deal with the complexity of the issue at hand. Nations have the right to determine how and when people enter…

So, they are not refugees. They are economical migrants.

Because we don’t want to deal with the mess we encourage by supporting Middle East conflict?
