You can't go around saying stuff like that. They're gonna kick you out of the union! :)

Welp, the left also has a list as long as you arm about the terrible horrible things that the people on the right want to do, or have done, and a list of the wonderful things they want to do. It's really just a question of perspective because most of these lists are about preferences and...

Meh. The right has been calling the left "communist" for the last 8 years. Like I said before, everybody's guilty! lol. :)

Hmmm. Don't think I can go with that one. The definition's not inclusive enough. If you see people on crutches or in wheelchairs for example you shouldn't have to be told to hold it for them. Also, how much extra space do cute girls get? I mean, if we'r being honest don't we stretch the wait...

I wasn't commenting on any of this stuff, nor judging people's general political leanings or preferences, except at the extremes of either side of the spectrum. My point was simply that either side saying "you do this and we don't" is full of shit, because the left and the right are both equally...

Corollary question. At what point/distance/speed is it rude to not hold the elevator door for someone coming your way?

Well, if you have to ask someone to say thanks to you (who isn't a 6 year old) then you're clearly swimming in the wrong pond anyway. Random people shouldn't demand gratitude. totally agree with you.

Well, it's clearly not random because it was targeted and done with intent. I'm just not willing to jump to the conclusion that it's professional, or that it's terrorism, or that it was an angry ex-girlfriend, or that it was unhappy Joe Blow next door without knowing who the assailant was and...

"It was a professional hit" was a factual statement? based on what? I'll retract my comment and apologize if you can support that statement based on any info currently available.

So, here's where I'm at. I despise the far left fantasists and their frankly ridiculous and impractical ideas. I equally despise the far right wingnuts whose ideas aren't supported by anyone with a rational brain. My problem is that both extremes are the most vocal groups and both make the...

I promise that I will, if you will also make a change and stop making statements unsupported by evidence.

A-ha! Kindness is its own reward! I may have to re-evaluate how I perceive and interact with my fellow humans. :)

Ah. Blue jeans and a black t-shirt. The sure fire trademark of the professional assassin. How about if we let them catch somebody first, and then decide the quality and the capacity of the assailants' murderous ability.

Are you calling me a progressive liberal? That's hysterical.

so not a professional hit then, as far as we know, with the information currently available.
