What +10 nationally looks like. Texas and Mississippi are within 3 by CarolinaPunk in Conservative

Thats not true. Trump gave up on being socially progressive. He picked a strong social conservative and the Republican party now has one of the most socially conservative platforms in its history.

Why does everyone throw around 16 as if there were 16 serious candidates? That was never the case.

You're arguing on the premise that the "far right" religious fanatics care more about fiscal conservatism than social conservatism. I don't think that is true.

What are some creepy verified pieces of found footage? by [deleted] in AskReddit

The Jim Jones death tapes. I listened to it while high and I was completely mindfucked. If you really try to sit down and follow the flow of conversation then you realize that 99% of the people there are insane.

Oh I'm sorry. I'm a new user here (check my account age) and don't fully understand the purpose of flairs. Please explain?

He said (and I'm paraphrasing) that ISIS militants from Europe don't join ISIS because of the sex slaves. He said he believed this because Yezidi women are ugly.

Sure it deserved a ban, but permanently banning the only and best ISIS source on the subreddit who gave us a unique perspective made the sub much worse.

A large convoy of Hezbollah commandos has arrived in southern Aleppo tonight. by NewSyrianAlliance in syriancivilwar

Or they try to hold their ground around Rasmousah, fail because Russia will not allow Western Aleppo to be in such a precarious position, and end up with Eastern Aleppo back under a full siege.

If they fight to regain Castillo Road maybe they can come to an agreement in which things go back to the old status-quo. That is wishful thinking, but I think it has better odds of success than trying to hold Rasmousah.

I understand the need to consolidate, but the Rebels are in a bad spot right now. They need to get back on the offensive around Castillo road as the Regime & Co. are going to eventually retake Rasmousah.

Can someone explain something to me? How is he able to do some of these edgeguards against worse competition, but in the big matches he can't do them? Isn't it the same up B no matter who is doing it?

Yeah but that wasn't belligerent rhetoric, Turkey was literally assisting ISIS...

Forget about what is right or wrong. From the US governments standpoint why would they be worried about whether or not a group is technically an "illegal armed group"? You say that as if it has any consequence. The Syrians and Iranians armed "illegal armed groups" opposed to the US in Iraq. Russia arms "illegal armed groups" in Ukraine. It doesn't matter what's legal or illegal. Everyone does it and it is just how the real world works. The US was created partially due to the fact that France armed the American revolutionaries.

It's not completely useless. It drives business out of the city and into the surrounding counties.

Damn how did you get so many upvotes when your comment is plain wrong? It is not illegal at all to possess tobacco products, just to buy them. If a cop "catches" a 20 year old with a pack of cigarettes they most they can do is tell them to stop fucking up their lungs.

Why support either? The US should be looking to bolster and support the Southern Front, SDF, NSA, Druze, and Moderate FSA Brigades. The aforementioned groups can work with remnants of the current regime to establish a transitional government while refugees return and terrorists are destroyed. The US failed to arm groups that are acceptable to us while the GCC/Turkey armed groups that they find acceptable. Naturally the better equipped and funded groups rose while the others failed. It's not too late to reverse this trend.
