The percentage is a tad high, but crime statistics posted yearly by the FBI provide strong support for the opinion that they commit an enormmously disproportionate part of overall crime in America, with the emphasis on violent crimes. That's a fact no matter what excuses you make for them. And it's not an American phenomena. The bulk of the continent of Africa is literally run by criminals, murderers and rapists. They are not caucasians, or asians, or spaniards. The problem with dismissing generalizations is that they are generally true and accurate. Obviously, many, many, many people do not fall into this category, and some might not if they had better opportunities in life, but it is what it is. I feel for both the (not so bright) men in this instance as the bitch with the cellphone camera is the one who needs a serious beatdown. I must be racist (even though I voted for Obama and strongly support him) as I simply can't imagine caucasian women doing anything of the sort. Can you?
you can be racist without hating black people. racism just means you make generalizations and kind of dick comments about people based on their race.
Well, yeah, but... You could meet just Mr. Wesson. Mr. Wesson has been in business without Mr. Smith for (50?) years. Go Blazers
Maris and hyperbole go hand in hand. Fortunately you know nothing about me, my history, or my beliefs. I could make gross accusations about you, but I don't really enjoy making personal attacks.
I've known home-schooled kids and they have a very limited view of the world. They are clueless about so much in life. I blame the fact that they are only taught a single viewpoint, usually by a parent who is an idiot. I've never met anyone I considered qualified to provide a child's entire education, not even the best and brightest teacher I ever had. It's absurd to even go down that road.
Dude is unbalanced to say the least. I think I'll stop joking about him now. [video=youtube;URYXWWRrArQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URYXWWRrArQ&feature=player_embedded[/video]
I don't know what he did, but it is apparent he must shoot his mouth a lot. I imagine from the two videos that he is mentally challenged. Untreated PTSD or he is off his meds.
Hmm... two thoughts: 1. Don't talk shit to people. The guy who lost the bus fight is lucky that EBM isn't REALLY crazy. He might have got his face kicked in or his head bashed. 2. At the baseball game, it's interesting to hear one person in the background imploring the police to "go easy on him" or something... while the police might not have known about other episodes, it seems more than coincidental that they acted how they did given the information they had.

"From a single viewpoint"? I don't understand. They're taught from a curriculum put together by lots of (I would imagine, I don't know from experience) people who aren't idiots, and are taught in a classroom size of less than 5. There's not a child I've ever come across (and I've been working with kids for 20+ years) that didn't benefit from more focused attention on them and how they learn. You don't get that in a class size of 30. Isn't it more absurd to think that some idiot "housemom in tennis shoes" would just make up crap she thinks will get her kid to pass a standardized test?
Watching MARIS "debate" and spew random, made-up garbage is like watching a train wreck. It is grusome, terrible, but you can't seem to look away because of the ridiculousness. Example: This thread, MARIS is giving his long diatribes about kids needing to be sent to school. But, from another thread...
That was an interesting response (the interview). It does appear that he's missing some of his braincells, and if you believe his side of the story it's not that bad. I would like to hear the other guys side, if possible though. The whole "boy" thing is a touchy subject, because it is commonly known as a racist catch phrase (or at least, something said to elicit a certain response or feeling). IF what he said was how it went down, he could have just meant that the guy who does his shoes. I don't know. I've heard people refer to someone who does something for them (accountants, mechanics, etc) as 'my guy'. Of course, it doesn't have the same connotation. Plus, was the guy out for 22 minutes? I don't think someone who is out cold would be calling for an ambulance that lucidly.
He was talking about going to his mom's funeral and having his boy shine his shoes. Then he says his mom died two days later. He said they stole his money and then that he was borrowing money from his friend. I think he's a fry short of a happy meal, but I give the guy some respect. He's 67 and he fought for our country. Don't fuck with old people they "usually" don't fight, just kill you. I would do my best to walk away from a situation like that, but if I was assaulted I would have to try to hurt the bastard as fast and as much as I can. Car keys between the fingers takes out an eye very quickly.
I noticed the inconsistencies in this story, HOWEVER, it could be explained possibly by this. He's a coocoo bird. Also, it might be that he was borrowing money, even though he had some money (but not enough for whatever additional funds were necessary). OR the money they stole was the money he borrowed. Also, it could be that he meant that the 2 days later was when his moms funeral was at. I think it's safe to say the guy isn't playing with a full deck.
