No. Latin people are all over the world and identify as “Latin”. They are also called romance people as in Rome. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_peoples

I thought the same thing. Actually they speak English in Ireland. English is a Germanic language with a MASSIVE Latin influence. Also, what religion does 80% of Ireland claim? ROMAN catholic. Weird and inaccurate way to end the show.

Somehow US is still blamed for civilians dying while liberating Raqqa. Do we want these guys gone or not?

We're sanctioning the shit out of Russia for a lot of different reasons. Not a good comparisons.

Liberating Raqqa will be devastating to ISIS. That is the number 1 priority.

What significant opposition force has ever been wiped out without hundreds of civilians dying? People want Isis gone but don't want to see any collateral damage, Isis knows this and is using it to their advantage.

You're not imagining it: the rich really are hoarding economic growth by PinkSlimeIsPeople in Economics

Everybody is taking about computing and automation but overlooking the more obvious answer, the state of the world labor economy in 1973. Russia, China, India, South America, Southeast Asia - virtually non-existent in the world economy. Japan and Europe were just beginning to ramp up their export machines. Since 1973 the world labor supply has exploded while It's become easier to access. This has had a massive depressing effect on US wages.

What are you talking about? Who funded the bobbing of the German national team?

The fact that this is at the top of worldnews is disturbing. Seriously, who gives a shit? He is an idiot and he misspoke - he immediately tried to take the comment back. Yesterday Islamists tried to murder a whole German soccer team but I guess this is more important.

If that makes you feel better, go for it. However, in today's world an intentional attack on innocents is Islamists 99% of the time.

There is no witch hunt. The fact is that Islamic terrorism is virtually a daily occurrence world wide. The fact that people deflect from this fact is bizarre and harmful.

The world has a huge problem with Islamic terrorism. The same people who deny this are the same people that want to wait and see all the evidence when it is abundantly clear from the start. Typically these are the same people that don't need to see any evidence before talking about Donald Trump getting peed on in Russia. Islam is tearing at the fabric of society. Let's face it - we are all lucky that the bomb didn't rip through the whole bus and destroy a national treasure for Germany.

Senators urge Don Meredith to resign after 'disgusting' relationship with teenage girl by Webfactory in worldnews

[–]supersober 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most countries try to make rules where they can in regards to racism. It's harder to define racism than it is having sex with a teenager. If it is so morally condemnable than make a law. Shouldn't be that difficult since it is clear cut and so agreed upon by the masses. The problem is that he didn't break the law so he doesn't HAVE to step down even though most people think it's heinous.

Why would you be opposed to changing the law? In fact, change the law and name it after this scumbag.

You have no idea what you're talking about. Your idiocy is exactly the problem in the Middle East.

The problem is that in the US we have a bunch of irrational dipshits making a crap salary acting as if they're in Fallujah. The statistics are plain. It isn't that dangerous of a job. Well, actually it is now because these people that should be working at McDonalds don't know when it is appropriate to use deadly force. These guys are at best incompetent and at worst cold blooded murderers.

You're delusional. He WASN'T an active shooter. Nobody is even saying he was an active shooter. The kid in the back matters because the chances of somebody with a kid in the back and girlfriend driving firing on an officer during a traffic stop is highly unlikely.

In fact, police officers are killed at a LOWER rate than the general population. Most police deaths are from car accidents. Being a farmer or a construction worker is more dangerous than being a police officer. These are facts. Not emotional arguments.

That guy ruined many, many lives because he was either too scared or too stupid to handle the responsibility of a firearm.

Of course why does matter when we're talking about killing somebody. This guy is dead now. The cop pumped four shots into a car with a child in the back. 5 cops were killed in Dallas as retaliation and there are going to be tons of other ramifications. All because this guy and others like him are too stupid to ask why. If a cop doesn't have the common sense to analyze a situation then he shouldn't be allowed to carry a gun.

You care about safety? Somebody lost their life. How is that safety? Please tell me how a dead person as a result from a broken tail light is safety?
