    The big problem is we don't head off the problem before it's a problem. We've done at least 2 rounds of amnesty since I've been old enough to remember them. So here we go again, wait until we have millions of illegals here again, and then deal out another amnesty which only makes more people realize if they can illegally gain entry, the US will eventually let them stay. Another issue is the whole anchor baby thing ... thats not constitutional and wasn't what was intended.

    Huggy, I'm guessing this...

    She comes across as a little nutty at times, but this stream of tweets is impossible to argue with. https://notthebee.com/article/marjorie-taylor-green-just-dropped-a-20-tweet-mega-thread-explaining-which-party-truly-endangers-americans?fbclid=IwAR0jzSrQ45RmaZNqP70ZmAstU85TPkDu1J_HuonI-uhGxrvSWx3k_8_qHik

    I remember these in pretty much every guard unit that I visited on my numerous tweet cross countries around the country. Usually the oval ones.

    I've used California Numismatic (www.golddealer.com) for 35 years now with great success. They usually had the best margins out there and are established and solid. Lately however their margins are quite high (significant) with gold and silver. Check your state on sales tax as well, TN just started charging sales tax on silver and gold (even US mint coinage like the $1 Silver Eagle and $50 Gold Eagle - seems unfair) which creates an even larger margin. My brother bought some recently in TX and they don't charge sales tax on precious metal coins (bullion or U.S. minted) .

    Last one. Near Schiphol airport.

    Heres a 747 at a park near Jakarta Indonesia. I found this when I was doing searches for aircraft used as housing or restaurants. I wanted to buy an old plane and convert it into a guest house. The logistics of getting it to my farm in TN was going to be challenging (read very expensive).

    This might have been posted here in BO previously. This is one of my favorites google finds near Hooks, TX outside of Texarkana. F-111 at an Army Navy surplus store.

    Here's a quick and elementary video about inflation and the fix. Simple straightforward and what most on here have been saying. Get rid of fiat currency and attach our currency to something with intrinsic value (gold, silver, platinum, etc). The standard puts checks on government (why the end of the standard was initiated in 1933 by the douchebag FDR - and finished in 1973 by Nixon) and prevents them from turning cash into fancy toilet paper. It would cause some disruptions/issues as we worked through it, but would be beneficial to our long term existence as well as return some confidence in our government.

    Not good. I guess I haven't stayed current on that disturbing statistic. The last I heard at my VA appoint. last year it was 24 a day.

    Wasn't sure what the 22 club was/is. My google search results ... I'm guessing this is wrong, unless he bagged a rich cougar. 22 Bar - Urban Dictionary https://www.urbandictionary.com › define A luxury bar, restaurant or cafe where women can have dine and pick a male member of staff for desert/sex... Members only club for wealthy and famous women... I ...

    Yeah, don't think I've seen that bundle of services (clean floors, clean pipes) offered around here.

    this is the type of feces I was referring to when I said I found it difficult not to verbally bash homos. I spent 5 years sitting alert with crew dogs and one of the favorite sports was to think of innovative ways to insult each other using, admittedly mean spirited, terms for a homo. We would have had a field day with this group.

    Just watched “Created Equal” yesterday. Basically a biography of Justice Thomas. Some interesting personal history and worth watching to better understand the man and the Justice. He lived an interesting life through the turbulence of the ‘60s and early ‘70s (a Yale law grad who barely found a job) as the fight for equal rights turned more violent.

    And, why is gold and silver not going crazy right now with inflation out of control? Most sellers are charging huge margins, but the spot prices are less than they were a year ago.

    Bitcoin and all of the other crypto fascinate and for fun i bought a bit of it. But, they are still basically a fiat currency/money but don’t even have the “good faith” of a country backing them. Im not seeing any actual value behind them or the nft . As mentioned previously, we’re not making product/stuff anymore, so we’re just dreaming up new magic shitte to try and capture money from each other. I can see some value in the blockchain with transaction ease, security, and lowering transaction costs but don’t really see the benefit of crypto. Once the gov figures out how to control it, any value for anonymity will completely disappear too.

    No troops, been out for a while. I teach at a university and have never told anyone my personal thoughts on the subject. I teach with homosexuals, teach homosexuals as students (some actively proclaim it, others don't) and treat them all as fellow humans worthy of respect as fellow citizens of earth. But yeah, personally the actions disgust me. I'd argue for most people it's pretty gross even with the past decade of attempted forced acceptance. There are probably other actions that disgust me too.
  20. bfargin
    Wow, Ok thought and moral police. Forever, humans have identified homosexuality as a fringe and unhealthy sexual activity, Science literature confirms that fact, social science literature confirms that (even back when it was abnormal psychology), and moral teaching confirms that. I have to temper myself big time to not verbally bash on homos and trans. They deserve mutual respect as humans but earn no respect from anyone for their personal moral choices. We as a society tolerate plenty of things we don't personally condone. Comparing homos to people of color is incredibly offensive and not accurate. Just cause you might be a homo, doesn't mean you can force your choice onto other's value system.

    nice straw man ... nobody is saying the climate hasn't/doesn't change.
  22. bfargin
    No, I read. And call BS on their claim (as I wrote).
  23. bfargin
    What a complete BS claim. Brandolini's law explains how that feces was published in spite of the ridiculous claim shown in quotes in your post. There are way too many variables, each with significant variance in climate change models, to come even close to showing a causal effect (even a "relative causal" effect). I know a Senior Editor who should be replaced.

    It looks like the squids are trying to match the AF tit for tat. 5 leadership firings in a week. https://www.yahoo.com/news/navy-fires-five-officers-less-232425657.html
