    Justing getting back into town from our vacation. Anyway, despite your accusations, I've read all you had posted here from the NYT. In this regard, while they talked about the "gypsies", I never did see the footnotes corroboration of Tucker's comments. Did I overlook it?

    Look, the world we now live in is crazy and dangerous. When it comes to immigration issues, I'd rather the powers-that-be error on the side of safety rather than the alternative. That's not being racist, it's being prudent.

    No, you made this thread without reading the original article. You do this a lot, including your thread about dems wanting to kill babies which turned out to be bullshit. You didn't read the actual bill until being badgered into it.

    The game lasts longer if you reverse it. Put the kid in the freezer and tell the remote to go get it.

    So what? I posted an article that related aspects of the NYT article. I trusted the writer to be factual in what he related. Plus, the thread about the dems killing babies is not far off the mark. Now you're being a boob. Stop it.

    You trusted a writer to be factual because it supports your preconceived notion. The same way that you can say the "dems killing babies" is not "far off" the mark, because that thought supports your (incorrect) preconceived notion.

    Fair enough, but in some ways, don't we all, at times, trust various authors, broadcasters, clergy, and such, that align with our own views? BTW, I had used the Miami Standard's vernacular, "Killing Babies" when posting that thread. Granted, the Miami Standard is not necessarily a bastion of media standards, LOL, yet it still described, and cited, the basic situation.

    Sure, the term, "killing babies", would most likely be found in conservative circles..

    ....but it's not a ridiculous, or in your terms, "incorrect preconceived notion."

    yes, it is certainly ridiculous and an incorrectly preconceived notion.

    You might want to invest in a dictionary.

    Thanks for the great save. But, if that's all you have to say, so be it.

    My comment wasn't about how you spelled ridiculous wrong, it was your failure to understand the definition of "preconceived"

    Oh, OK. That might be a thesaurus, as well. But, go ahead, splain it to me.

    A thesaurus gives you similar words, not the definitions of word.

    Way to prove my point.

    PS: You never did respond to my response on the topic at hand.

    You have Google, look up what preconceived notions means.

    I never rely on a single source. I generally read several sources on the same subject. I use facts to reach the truth. I also make sure to read the original article before I make a sound conclusion.

    Again, I'm not a subscriber to the NYT. I did read what Sly posted in here. I'm not phased.

    Thanks
