to be fair, the US gives a lot of aid, sure it's for strategic purposes, but that means survival for a lot of people
At least that's humanitarian aid not Israeli aid. Besides, cost of war far exceeds the amount US gives and i'm talking only financial cost for the US itself. People's lives, damaged infrastructures and other long term ramifications of war; strategic purposes or not, that's what the US has to stop doing and it's obvious who in this country is thirsty for more wars.

When you have been deported 5 times and have been jailed for previous felonies and STILL was able to do what he did then yes, you have a problem with the immigration system. When you have untold amounts of illegals being caught for a crime, released back into society only to recommit the same or equally disturbing crimes then you absolutely have a problem with immigration.

Trump is saying what a lot of Americans already feel he isn't a politician so he isn't afraid of this absolute rubbish "politically correct" society that is being forced down our throats. Trump might not be the best candidate but he is spot on with immigration.

And ALC, he was deported FIVE FUCKING TIMES, no one let him in he came illegally. This isn't hard to understand. There are law abiding immigrants and there aren't.

You know the ironic thing is, Trump is using this to push his agenda at fixing the border which most of us want, how is that a bad thing? You see liberals screaming left and right about immigrants and their rights but when something like this happens you don't see shit in the media because it backfired in their faces.

Even you agree the situation at our borders needs addressed, even slightly. All Trump is saying is essentially how far and often are we going to let this thing go before we start making better decisions?

inb4 I get absolutely bashed on here for saying this.
When I first read about his speech I thought "what a stupid guy, had he said that in a less harsh way he wouldn't have gotten this much of negative reaction" but then I realized how else he would appeal to people like Hustini :oops:

corporations are people my friend :D and wars greatly benefit them, yes it's govt expenditures but it still makes its way back into the economy, so war is not so 'bad' from an economic standpoint, especially if it also guarantees energy sources. The tricky thing is we dont always know how they turn out, or we kinda have an idea but the war gets hijacked and we stray from the initial plan. Anyways, this is in no way an apology for US foreign policy, and blind support for israel at the expense of US and other countries' interest is disgusting, what can you do, democracy sucks.

She thinks you are a :gsol:stereotypical:gsol: American. The nerve on that eye-ranian :disagree: :D

It sucks that no one cares about their sport, but they can complain or they try to do things to make it better, more marketable, etc.

It does kind of suck that professionals make $6,000 a season though.:lol:
They basically want the tennis treatment. They want to play two sets less and still make the same amount of money as men. :gsol:Equal Pay:gsol:

I know she does, I want to hear her say it.

Its amazing how every non-US citizen can generalize so easily.

It's not generalizing whole nation really, it's just that you do fit into that stereotype.
I know I do, I don't disagree. But there are certain aspects I don't fall into. :D You know, like having a rebel flag pickup truck with a gun rack in the back. Or morbidly obese with diabetes.

I pay my taxes, I donate to a church & mosque (with my wife). I study hard, I work even harder. Among some political things I am much more conservative, while others I am much more liberal. You don't tend to find someone of both cloths here, its usually one or the other. So, I guess if me being more vocal about my opinions makes me a stereotypical American then I guess I am. We can be quite opinionated.:p

So I was reading White Twitter yesterday and I gotta wonder: why iz it that white NBA players don't earn as much as black ones? This is outright racism! Equal pay for equal work. #DeludedChicks

Affirmative Action, of course. Gotta make amends for, you know, what happened 2 centuries ago.
