BNP Paribas extorted by US government for $9 billion fine
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this.

US crushed French bank even though it violated no international, or bilateral law, simply because trade is done in dollars. This is abuse of power and signifies that the US no longer upholds a free trade system. It will use the fact that trade is done in dollars to destroy people even if they broke no law.

Essay writing tips
We had fiction, so non-fiction now. Sometimes I really struggle to maintain structure for 10-15,000 words and ramble off in another direction. How do you write a clear concise essay?

Maybe I'm being over sensitive...
But there seems to be a fair bit of misogyny in some posts. All in jest, but still, some posts that are misogynistic in nature. I'm curious as to whether there would be so many if there were more women on the site.

English Writing Skills Thread
Discuss skills that help you write good prose and poetry.

I'll start:
If you are trying to write an argumentative piece, it helps a lot to be concise. A long-winded piece that just says the same thing in ten different ways just leads readers astray.

Sandbox
I used to play on an online diplomacy site that had a sandbox. Is it possible to get one on this site, even if just for classic. I looked on the todo list and saw nothing in reference to it.

Obiwan where are you?!
I just finished watching Joss Whedon's production of Much Ado About Nothing and wanted to learn if you had seen it and what your impression was if you had. I quite enjoyed it and felt it was, at the least, comparable to Branagh's version.

Dead Children = Liberal Compassion
Truth in Action - One of the brilliant ideas of Libtards is "open borders"...it's compassionate. Everyone deserves blah blah blah. Yeah, but there are CONSEQUENCES: ** Dead CHILDREN on the shores of the Rio Grande **

This illustrates wonderfully the difference between Libtards and Conservatives. Libtards only care about the *IDEA*....they CARE...but seem to have a nasty habit of failing to measure the outcomes, whereas Conservatives tend to look at the outcomes along with the idea.

The OUTCOME of open borders (as currently enacted by the Libtard Emporer Obama) is DEAD CHILDREN on the border.

Funny...on any other day the Libtards would move heaven and earth to save *just one child*....unless, of course, in doing so they happened to step on one of their sacred cows...in which case you are freely encouraged to ignore any and all dead children.

Thank you. That is all. You may proceed to go about your day ignoring this latest Obama attrocity.

That article is more than a little disingenuous, seeing as no dead children have actually been seen by any US authorities and this article relies on one refugee's report of other Hispanics seeing dead bodies, reports that are unsubstantiated.

Compare and Contrast:
1. Dead Children as the result of an incredibly complex cultural/religous decades/centuries/nay Millenia long Arab/Israeli conflict...specifically Palestinian children in this latest instance. It's a human outrage. IT MUST STOP!!!! cries the Libtard.

2. Dead children because of a simple failed policy of open borders allowing/ENCOURAGING unaccompanied minors to try to infiltrate the US....easily fixed....IGNORED BY LIBTARDS.

What?!?!?!

2ndWhite - yeah, it's hard to see the dead bodies when you forbid any government official to vist the region, and threaten any reporters that dare photograph the region. I guess when you tighten up all the security and disallow actual investigations, you can easily say youare blissfully unaware of the tragedy....and hell, there are ALWAYS willing evil Libtard sheeple like you to back them up no matter what.

YEah...that's right -- I called you EVIL.

2ndWhite- I'll agree with you on drug policy - it's attrocious and ridiculous.

The wars....oh,you mean the ones the Democrats were *fully* in support of until it became harmful to their political machine to be? You mean the war emocrats continued for teh last 6 years, and nary said a peep about during Obama's entire Presidency? You mean THOSE wars, you flaming hypocrite?

But I digresss....you may try to chagne the topic when the TRUTH hurts, my evil little friend...but let's just once try to stay on topic, shall we?

As far as outcomes go, this policy on providing children temporary amnesty to protect them from potential sex trafficking, which led to this increase in children crossing the border, was implemented under the Bush administration. So much for foreseeing those outcomes.

I guess...as with all things Libtard...we dont' really care much when the Dead Children have dark skin, right? Liberal media and their Sheeple followers only get upset if we can flash a pretty white-skinned girl on the screen, hopefully blonde...THEN we can get some media attention. But just a nother dead minority? It's expected, right? The Soft Bigotry of Low Expectation? Liberalism at it's finest?

krellin, what are you talking about? Obama has formally deported more people than any other president (though like everything else the federal government does, the numbers are so fuzzy that you can use different measures to put Bush ahead; they're certainly comparable).

And do you even know what "open borders" means? Not in the sense that you can explain the long-range impact or anything like that; can you actually define the concept? If it was open borders, then all these people would be here legally, families and all.

Finally, (as on preview I see 2WL points out already) this all comes from a law named after William Wilberforce, signed by George W. Bush, which changed the way that the government processes children entering the country.

Ignoring the dead bodies and outcomes arguments and all that, why the hell should we be responsible for these people coming to our border? Why should we let them in when we have thousands (millions?) of impoverished/homeless in our country? Who the fuck made us the stewards of the Latino?

Poor, STUPID little Libtards. Here is how you were supposed to answer this post. Think about this...*seriously*.

"Damn...I hadn't heard about that. That is truly a tragedy! I'm shocked that the media is not investigating and reporting more about this issue, to see if it's a one-time thing, or if this is a pattern, and possibly being covered up by the government officials, maybe even the White House itself.

I will contact my Representative and demand action....because Dead Children washing up on the Rio Grande is fully unacceptable."



Sadly...instead of this fully appropriate response, you EVIL ASSCLOWNS ignore it, mock it, and try to brush it aside.

IDEAS trump OUTCOMES in Libtardia. You have all just clearly demonstrated this to me, and furthered my opinion of each one of you as stupid, mindless sheep at best....truly EVIL bigots at worst. Fuck you all, seriously.
