There is a handful of people who just don't want to ever discuss anything unless you agree with them lockstep. Hopefully some day they will come around.

In the case of what we have here, seems more beneficial to just add it to the other threads we have on the same topic. The only benefit of starting a new one would be to avoid the conversation and points that have already been made on the topic. I certainly could have phrased it less sarcastically, but everyone knew the thread I was talking about. Throw it in that thread and it will get bumped back up again...

You can only add some many additional news worthy articles to a thread before it becomes lost. Besides I sat back and didn't post for a bit and watched topics repeatedly posted. Maybe you all would prefer 2 pinned threads. One for liberals/progressives and one for conservatives? Then the forum can just be limited to 2 threads. You guys try as hard as you can to limit discussion especially when it doesn't support whatever cause you are favoring. No one is forced to post or read any thread. You claim some threads are pointless..... Well stop bumping them up. Post what you think is worthy and if others agree wry will bump the topics up.

You try your hardest to get to 3 main points of yours over and over. 1. PP = Eugenics 2. Muslim not civilized 3. Teach gun safety in public schools. Other than that you essentially just wonder around P&R making bombastic personal claims and starting new threads in an attempt to get to your 3 ideas above. If you're going to take it personally when someone calls you out on it, GTFO. Otherwise, get used to it.

With Germany clamping down on their immigration policy and rejecting about 10% of all refugees that enter daily, it's causing some problems for Austria.
http://www.ekathimerini.com/205191/article/ekathimerini/news/europes-refugee-dilemma-eclipses-greece-crisis-austria-says Merkel is seeking a deal within the bloc to resettle asylum seekers and help Turkey care for more than 2 million refugees from the conflict in neighboring Syria. Members in the bloc’s ex-communist east including Poland, Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic have rejected a deal establishing quotas on how many migrants they are obliged to accept. Hungary and Slovenia have also built fences to partially close off their borders from migrants traveling via Turkey through Greece and the countries of former Yugoslavia to richer EU states to the north. Looks like the EU is struggling and Britain is wrestling with the idea of exiting it.

Its obvious you can't just have completely open boarders, but that is the situation over there. The way the infrastructure is set up, it would be nearly impossible to cut off all access points between countries and somehow block these individuals from entering. Ideally Saudi Arabia would be taking in large swaths of these refugees. How do you proposed we force SA's hand there?

Merkel is now taxing British petrol as well. It's a mess and they are pushing the Brits to vote on an exit |
