I hate hate hate hate Spiders.

I'm not scared of them, but this guy startled the crap out of me. I opened my front door while on the cell phone, and by time I saw him was 5" from stepping on him right outside my door. He was about 5 foot long or so.

All of this hyperbolic outrage over every move. Can you start capturing a list of the action and the associated fear from it?

For instance: Devos is an example of (insert outraged fear)

I'm trying to keep straight what to be concerned about. You guys on the left have almost numbed me to it. Everything is wrong and every decisions is bad and fascism, Russians, war mongering, racism, etc.

I'm struggling to find any actual examples once I sift through the media's ********.

I would say the same thing about the right and applauding the immigration ban ... what exactly are they afraid of?
And I thought liberals were supposed to be the pussies ... the conservatives are afraid of everything.

I actually enjoy the idiots posts. What more could you want to make one feel how lucky some of us are. We have a dynamic duo of nut-jobs in him and RPJ.......cherish them.
I post news links outside of Breitbart and Fox. I know it's painful to see but it has to be done. Call it crazy to see a world outside your hick shell but you'll at least be informed.

There's no reason to put your neighbor in unnecessary danger. Vetting fighting age males from muslim areas of hate is reasonable. We have enough criminals of our own and we don't need people here who might not care of they live or die when they take a bunch of us with them. It's not about being scared, it's about being reasonable in protecting our fellow citizens, which is the only task that government really has.

No ... it's being unjustifiably scared. We are already vetting these people in a multitude of ways, and this wasn't "increased vetting" it was a ban. Even if you want to keep out fighting age males, the vast majority of refugees don't fall into that criteria. Detaining a 5 year old in handcuffs for 4 hours? That's just being a *****.

Not seeing any fascism here or as Whoopi put it, Taliban like activity.

These are just changes to the prevalent ideology and can be debated.

Please don't listen to what Whoopi says and then expect to get answers to why she said it from this board.
The entire panel on The View are a bunch of loons

While I don't want to see a 5 year old in handcuffs, it you've ever had to do dentistry on a 5 year old, you would appreciate them. It's our country and not theirs. we have the right to handle our immigration policies as we see fit. It is not their right, they are here because we let them. Thank heavens we have some people in there who understand that we need to put some distance between unfettered immigration and reasonable vetting. We also need to send them to areas other than where they have been going. How about sending some to Alaska, North Dakota, South dakota, Montana. Enough sending them all to the same place. They will never assimilate that way.

He was friends with the producer and it was a joke between them.

Do we have unfettered immigration from those 7 countries?

While I don't give a damn about seeing a 5 year old in handcuffs, if you've ever had to do dentistry on a 5 year old, you would try to defend it just like I am. Honestly, I would love to tie the little ***** up with rope. It's our country. We have the right to handle our immigration policies according to the U.S. Constitution. Unfortunately, we have some people in this administration that have no f'ucking clue what they are doing and have no f'ucking clue what the U.S. Constitution means. We also need to send them to areas other than where they have been going. How about sending some to Alaska, North Dakota, South dakota, Montana. Oh wait a minute, I have no clue what I am talking about again, like I often do, just spout off at the mouth saying whatever I think rather than fact...because numerous cities across the US have actually accepted refugees and the refugees are assimilating very well.

To be fair, they do like to shoot and blow people up. I get it, somewhat. I'm a man of the world, they don't scare me.

Moreover, a little bloodshed is good every now and then. Keeps things in perspective.

They don't scare me at all. There are tons of things keeping us safe that aren't for public consumption.

Besides that, I don't get the hysteria over terrorists. We've had very little exposure to it here in the states. Granted, the one major one was a big one, but still, we really don't have to live with the fear of it. How many people get in their car to go to work every morning wondering if their building is going to get blown up while they are there?

The odds of dying in a car wreck on the way to work are infinitely greater than dying in a terrorist attack, but we don't think twice about getting in the car ... but people freak out over refugees that are fleeing the very same terrorist activities that we fear here. Only they've REALLY lived it. We don't.

Your first mistake is looking for fear. Battles aren't fought with fear, and make no mistake, this is a battle. A battle of principle and core values as Americans. We're not letting Trump take our country. Battles are fought with bravery and strength. Battles are fought to win. Fear is refusing to fight while others do it for you. Example... DonnieJTrump (BoneSpur).

Part of my concern with having Congress vote on some of that stuff is that it further politicizes the issue. I'm not saying that to defend everything the EPA did or does. I also think they overstepped reasonable bounds at times. I think legal challenges might be a better recourse than giving that power to Congress. That way you still have checks. This is probably driven by my opinion of the ineffectiveness of Congress to do what is logical. See zika funding for part of my reason for that concern.

I was really tempted to let autocorrect change zika to Zima in the paragraph above.

Anybody in favor of Zima funding should be sent to a FEMA Death Camp.

Ridiculous. That rule was pure garbage. There is a reason even Obama had to try to slip that one in on the way out the door.

You are a total f'ucking moron. That rule only required coal companies to not operate within 100 feet of a stream. 100 feet. Which side is being disengenuous...actually flat out lying and misrepresenting facts? Those type of sensible regulations don't kill coal mining.

Considering how many streams there are in WV, how much land did that leave them?
