Right, which is why I didnt ever say that they should burn in hell or express such a sentiment.

That last paragraph I think sums it up really well and had you written that initially I think I would have just nodded and agreed. There is obviously a huge issue in lots of poor and low education communities about the value of ones own life and that translates into the value put on the lives of others, and I agree…

“There” is florida. If you want to have a discussion about how Florida is a shit hole, well I’ll gladly hop on your side. But much like your point about how Americans as a whole dont give a shit about starving children, blanket generalizations like this basically make your points difficult to take seriously

How exactly would you suggest that money be spent to address these problems? Removing dictators? Increasing aid? Occupying countries?

Im just trying to use the chosen vernacular of the type of person who likes to say things like..

16 years old is not a child. Thats an absurd statement even though I tend to disagree with charging individuals this age as adults for crimes. By your logic at what point do they all of a sudden grow out of the influence of this adult culture? Following this line of thinking to its conclusion it would seem that you…

How long did it take you to write that comment? Thanks for your explanation dude! You’ve educated this libtard.

One has to wonder what these kids futures hold with such blatant disregard for life. Jesus.

“Concentrated poverty disproportionately impacts Black and Latino communities. As is the case with poverty in New York City, concentrated poverty is more prevalent in communities with majority Black and Latino populations.”

The craziest thing about this is the argument that its ugly. Who gives a shit? I mean, I know lots of people do by reading articles about the new nose or aero bits that seem to put everyones panties in a bunch, but I just dont understand why. If the point is to be the pinnacle of racing technology then why should…

Add to that the fact that most affordable places to live are on the outskirts of the outer boroughs where there arent many jobs to begin with leading to these crazy commutes.

Yeah who knows what the hell to do. Certainly not me. I guess the problem is that the asses who are in charge obviously dont know either.

Fair enough, but how many low income jobs let you eat at work since you dont usually have a desk or office. And when I say a long commute, think Brownsville to north bronx which is close to 2 hours each way. And again, its not just the length of time but the fact that alot of folks are working multiple jobs.

Basically because minorities tend to take trains very long distances to get to jobs. I used to take the train between 430 and 5 in the morning to get to work, just a few stops, and would see that most of the train is filled with minorities wearing uniforms for hospitals etc that were at least an hour away on the…

Yeah totes me too! If I die young I fully expect my wife to live in a dark room only occasionally going out, veiled of course, in black. I want my children to never again know the feeling of having two loving parents.

Ah, classic chiropractor move, creating more work for real doctors. Yeah i said it. Go ahead and stick your elbow into that vice and see what happens. Yeah it may be better for your back but I felt like i was going to do some pretty serious damage to my elbow. Just to check, I had a couple friends try too. And…

That was very scary

Uber seems shitty (a charitable description) for many reasons, but the passage you cite is not only not bad, but it’s good. An affirmative description of consent? That is not common, despite the fact that it obviously should be.

Certainly no intent to suggest violence, but I understand how it could be construed that way. But to answer your question, I feel bad for everybody who has long term pain management issues and how commonly that leads to addicition. Thats what I find sad about the situation. He wasnt drunk according to the police.

I was probably more of a dick than necessary. Fair enough
