Is that what you think you're doing here? Providing an intellectual argument worthy of serious discussion and debate?

Is crime and police brutality even an issue in Seattle? Or are these people asking for change simply based on an event that occurred 1,500 miles away?
Property crime is a major issue with all the homeless junkies but violent crime is usually pretty low for a city of its size. I don't think police brutality has been much of an issue. So yeah, they're basing their decisions in something that happened 1500 miles away.

Well, it's not exactly rocket science to deduce that a majority of the people in an area are a certain mindset, when you see the politicians they continually elect, and the policies they support.

But then again, I have my doubts that you can comprehend that truism. After all, you have continually exhibited a total lack of reason and logic in the posts you have submitted. My favorite was the the huge, fat chick that lost a bunch of weight. Cause, you know, that is extremely common and very likely to happen.

And when I use your thought process, then I stereotype all of Alabama being like Roy Moore. Alabama does not really have all that much of a leg to stand on when your officials have basically been the most ridiculed in the country outside of New York for the past 4 years.

I don't think police brutality is a major issue ANYWHERE. You have isolated incidences in a country with 330 million people. Statistically speaking, if you are not suspected of doing something against the law, you have a better chance of winning the lottery, than being a victim of police brutality.

Let's just face it, some just need an excuse to freak out and show their arse. They cannot be held responsible for the actions and decisions they have made in their life, and must have someone else to blame for the position they are in.

Didn't argue that it was. I was just answering that posters question that was specifically about Seattle.

Ok, whatever.

I'm no Roy Moore fan, but you do know he is a West Point grad, Viet Nam vet, and holds a law degree from Alabama, right? That being said, I do understand that he didn't come from that place where all genius is found....Mississippi.

A yes, the classic mouth breathing Alabama argument when you have nothing to go on "Thank God for Mississippi". You do know in Mississippi we laughed at y'all thinking you were better. Mississippi is actually a little self aware of what they are (as is Arkansas and Louisiana), while Alabama just ignores all of its problems and then shite talks Mississippi, despite the fact the only great piece of art your state has ever created is To Kill a Mockingbird.

It's especially funny from the outside looking in as the two states are basically a matched set when it comes to national perception.

You and olmisslandshart should get a room. He's already fantasizing about socialist and rape. Maybe you make his dreams come true?

Weren't you just talking about Freud? Sounds like you might need a little time on the couch yourself.

Well, I'd appreciate it if you could make a point without using homosexual imagery, but if that's the only tool in your toolbox...

Hmmm.....I don't remember initiating anything about being "raped by a socialist". I did respond to the non-nonsensical stuff, though, and I made a correlation between the person who did make that post and his defender in shining armor.

No worries.

I don't really care about how you arrived at imagining me having gay sex. I'm just asking that you keep it to yourself in the future.
