OK, for those of you that think Trump has not completely lost his mind, can you please explain to me what he is up to regarding the Falkland Islands? Is he just trying to encourage a war that will take our attention off whatever you want to call the situation in Iran?
 

I watched this match live and caught the pre-game fly by and was thinking "Wow, that seemed quite low, must've been quite loud inside the stadium." But that's about where I left it. While I kind of agree with this guy overall, I just can't but think doesn't this male Karen who does not appear to be a citizen of RSA, have better things to do with his life?

I'm going to assume he's an American due to accent (or lack thereof), I think we've got enough issues of our own here that you need not worry about such things in other countries.
 
Argentina and Argentinians still do not consider them UK territory even though they lost a war to the UK. The president of Argentina backs Trump. The UK PM not so much. I think he's taking a shot at the UK - you didn’t help us, we will not help you.
 
What a ballsy stunt, though as a pilot I cannot condone flying <1000' of congestion like that.
That's what "normalization of deviance" will get you, lol.

I hope the pilots were not severely punished, but enough so that it's not repeated.
At least it's on video to rewatch forever....

Honestly you’re guess is as good as mine; I haven’t really dug into it though as I recently became aware of…

Germany’s AfD “far right” party is surging in the polls with massive voter turnout reported in Saxony-Anhalt and might be the first far right party to lead a German State since 1945.

Also hundreds of people are apparently blockading the exit roads of Portsmouth harbor in England to prevent the bussing in of hundreds of migrants who were picked up at sea by a well funded NGO who operates “maritime refugees resources” and bring them into ports where motor coaches are waiting to transport them.

The two tier policing is on full display as the protesters are using the exact same tactics as “just stop oil” but police are certainly not afraid to be violent with the immigration protesters and escalate things immediately and apparent extreme prejudice.

The people have had more than enough of these 3rd world rejects that even other Muslim nations don’t want and I’m afraid if things continue there will be potential for extreme violence….

1. Immigration continues until something pops off that makes Hitler look like a nursery rhyme.

2. Immigration continues and within 10 years you see a Tehran style takeover of Paris, Brussels or London
 
Regarding the Falklands..they had a referendum there as to whether they wanted to stay British.....was basically a 100% yes...believe there was only one whole no vote...so not up for debate as the population decided themselves

Likely, no more complicated than, at the moment, Trump views Argentina more of an ally than the UK.
An Occam’s razor kind of thing.

Surely even the faithful have had about enough. Lake America, the Gulf of America, New America, claim the Straight of Hormuz as US territory, give the Falkland Islands to Argentina. Seriously, does he think he’s the emperor of the world???

Some of his speeches makes it feel like his not fully there, all that rambling etc...and then there is the nodding of in meetings.

Perhaps it is as simple as dementia, and that is in this case perhaps no restrains and attempts to cover it up as it has been suggested that it was with Biden.

I believe its called Delusions of grandeur in dementia and according to AI the symtoms are:

False identities: Believing they are royalty, a famous celebrity, or a historical figure.

Exaggerated powers: Claiming they possess special talents, magical skills, or the ability to solve major world crises like ending wars.

Again according to AI, the reasons behind are:

Brain changes: Progressive damage to areas of the brain that handle memory, reasoning, and reality processing.

Confabulation: The brain creates false, distorted memories to fill in the gaps left by memory loss, which the person then firmly believes are true.

Confusion: Disorientation regarding time and place can cause distorted self-perception.

Perhaps it is not at all dementia or at least not as severe as above but it does feel like at least some of the symtoms are fitting the bill in this case.

In some ways, I think he likely does - certainly at least chairman and CEO.

No one knows what he's thinking when he babbles his nonsense. When I say "no one" I'm including Trump. I see today he's posted the currency exchange rate US to Canada dollar is "intolerable." Uh ... okay ... and whatta ya plan to do about that, Donald? Nothing, we hope. He's like the antithesis of King Midas. Everything Trump touches turns into crap. And it's always everyone else's fault. Like those damn dog-eating illegal immigrant mail-in voter vandals who are wrecking the US economy with box cutters.

If it is dementia, he's been sick for a looong time! I don't see anything new in his "symptoms."
 
Jesus lighten up.

I’m curious to hear first hand accounts of all this indoctrination taking place. Not your great aunts third cousins Facebook posts, but actual witnessed events. I know I have a very small sample size, two kids one school, but I don’t see it happening. I’m not saying it is, but I believe that 99% of what people regurgitate is made up.

My favourite is the old litter boxes in the bathroom rumour. Who the hell is cleaning these? Are they in stalls or in the open? I’d they’re in a stall, did they pull a toilet out to make room?
Okay, here are just three I personally know of, for our resident Canadian Liberals:

1. A homosexual teacher in Wellington, CO (20 minutes from my ranch and where we do some of our banking, go to church, wife volunteers at the food bank, do some of our shopping, where some of the kids of our employees go to school and one of my employees coaches wrestling and football) told kids during class time that they could be any gender they wanted and this teacher then started having after-school “art” program meetings that were secretly really about trans and gender issues without parents knowledge.

2. When my twins were in grade school, a Liberal teacher, who drove out from Fort Collins to our Livermore mountain school everyday to work, asked the class to write a paragraph on a Monday about what they did over the weekend. My son wrote about hunting and shooting birds and rabbits that make a mess and nest in, under and around our haystacks. She called him inside from recess and lectured him that he was not to ever again write about killing animals in her classroom and made him sit out recess. At the time, my wife worked part-time at the school as the Med Tech (school nurse) but we didn’t hear about this incident until my son told us after school. The next day, I called the Principal and we had a meeting with him and the teacher. I explained that this area is a ranching community and that about 70% of the people in the community are hunters and that there are also two outfitter families based in Livermore. The teacher apologized and said she didn’t “know her audience” enough and would adjust. I kindly educated her that hunting is conservation and also about the North American Wildlife Management Model and how her tax dollars do not support wildlife conservation but hunting licenses do, no matter the “audience.” I suggested that as a 3rd grade teacher, perhaps she should stick to the basics. My wife asked her why she didn’t mention it to her. Hint: My wife is more Conservative than I am.

3. A Liberal teacher, Tim, from Fort Collins wanted to teach at our mountain school and have his two kids attend it so he applied to be the 5th/6th grade teacher when our beloved teacher, “Mr. K” retired. The school was the sixth highest rated elementary school in Colorado. Tim got the job and bought 35 acres next to our ranch and built a house. I helped him with some house projects and we became friends. He and his wife were good neighbors, Liberal or not.

When my twins were in 5th grade, they were sent home with punctuation homework from Tim that consisted of unpunctuated sentences that they were to punctuate. Problem was, the unpunctuated sentences were not just your normal average sentences about benign subjects. The subject matter of the sentences were complete Liberal propaganda about chemicals killing 10k people a year in the USA, lies about the status of Canadian polar bear populations and other Liberal lies and talking points. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I called Tim and we had a polite conversation, especially about the bears and the management quotas set by the Canadian Wildlife Service for each village area. I asked him where he got the sentences. He said he got them from workbooks provided to teachers by taxpayer funded NGOs. To Tim’s credit, he said he needed to adjust his sources now that he was in Livermore. I suggested he should have never used such sources no matter where he taught school! To his further credit, he brought up the subject matter of the sentences the next day in class and shared with the class what I had taught him about bears. At that moment, two other students pulled out letters written by their parents, objecting to the sentence subject matter.

These are just three examples of the indoctrination in our public schools. I personally know of several more. It’s no surprise to those of us in the USA. If you have ever reviewed the resumes of the school board candidates, most are Liberal retired teachers and administrators who want to keep control of the agenda from the inside. A Conservative doesn’t stand a chance of being elected in the cities. Problem is that these local school boards also run our rural schools out in the counties outside the cities. As Conservatives, we get tired of this indoctrination and many people send their kids to private schools.

So, Mr. @Aaron N please wake up and realize that people like me have actually LIVED THROUGH THIS CRAP for years and have ironclad reasons for our stances. I found your post to be very naive about what goes on in the real world.
 
There is 100% value in an Ivy League Law School, especially given she, by all accounts, is the top of top. Being the top of the top is different, it requires a different mindset and different competition, you dont get there just by chance.

I would question the value of an undergraduate philosophy major at some of the Ivy League schools.
But the Liberals on here think our successful, hardworking kids were just lucky.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
