Well when you start attacking somebody's opinion it tends to escalate, very quickly. Again, as nobody seems to ha e read where I stated that the title makes it sound like blacks are more prone to crime. Race plays a factor but is not the defining one.

A quick Google search would give you all you need to look at. Just Google" Poverty as it relates to crime ". If I give you a source it's biased one way, or in the other way. So read all the pages you get. It's pretty much accepted in the study of Criminal Justice. As for the title, I already said why it was worded poorly.

If you took the time to look up stats instead of pull them out of your ass, you'd know Statistically, AAs and Hispanics live in poverty more than any other race. Poverty stricken people are more likely to commit crime. The topic is worded poorly in the fist place. No race is more prone to commit crime. But Becasue discrimination is still rampant in the US minorities will continue to be among those who commit the most crime because A) They're forced into poverty due to discrimination for jobs and/or B) the law just discriminates plainly. If you'd like to just continue in your pointless tirade, then continue please.

Race does play a factor. While yes location does play a factor, race plays a factor as well. It's been proven in studies through the years.

The system is racist.. Not as extreme as it used to be, but it is. So the number is horribly inflated due to harsher punishments imposed, DA prosecutorial discrimination, plea bargains, etc. All you have to do is take a criminology or Sociology class and it explains it. But I agree. Someone is going to say something dumb and racist. Would actually have refrained from posting it.

They're gravely wrong, and I question why they're enforcing out laws. Taking a picture, regardless if it's work related and posting it online is not against any law. It would be a direct violation of your first amendment. State policies and dept. policies, sure, but not any law.

Yeah we are. The US historically likes to covertly help rebels overthrow countries that they deem a threat to the western world. Only problem is one lunatic makes it a jihad against the west (Bin Laden, ISIS,etc). On a 2nd note, extreme western liberals, and supporters of ISIS like to justify their actions, because the US is killing their citizens. While yes, we are inadvertently, their the ones that are targeting their fellow muslims. Go on any of the uncensored media sites, and you'll see videos all over their pages of ISIS suicide bombers detonating near mosques, and Islamic cities. They're the ones killing their citizens blatantly, and they have the balls to call US OUT on it? I'm tired of us Pussyfooting around in the ME. Either GTFO, or go blitzkrieg on their ass!

Actually That's not why we went to war in WWI. If you're referring to the Zimmerman telegram, it actually asked Mexico to only attack us if we declared war on Germany. The sinking of the Lusitania caused us to go to war.

So your first post is begging for a copy?

These aren't just crimes. They're war crimes. You say they're fighting for resources and to improve their way of life. Where does raping rival entire villages daughters improve their life? Where does kidnapping all their rival kids improve their life? To compare that to America; US soldiers aren't raping Afghani women on a mass scale, kidnapping their children to fight for them. I see your point, but if their justification is fighting for food and resources, where do heinous warcrimes fit in to their scheme? It's like the islamic extremists. They say they're fighting against the West and for Islam because the West is supposedly killing their citizens.. Yet you go on sites like LiveLeak and all the videos are of the terrorists killing their own. The West isn't the one killing their citizens; they're killing them with executions, suicide bombing, and beheadings, yet the western news outlets don't cover them.

So it sounds like you are you justifying their suffering as "they're used to it"? Scientifcally and medically it's proven that one meal a day is NOT healthy (but neither is 6 meals a day. Personally I'd rather be obese than malnourished, but that's my opinion). And the native africans aren't fighting over resources. They use that as a justification of war, but it's basically one big Somalia. A bunch of tribes and warlords fighting for themselves. Fighting for resources doesn't require child soldiering, raping 8 year old girls, and enslaving tribes. As cynical as it sounds, Africa is a forsaken continent. They need help, but there's no peaceful solution.

Actually, the majority of it is as a whole. Yeah there are maybe very very few countries that aren't, but the majority of the continent is ravished by war, famine, disease (malaria, HIV/AIDS, Ebola, etc), racism. Hell, I don't know who's more civilized, ISIS or the rebels and guerrillas in Africa.

One day, I happened to be talking to a priest, from the Philippines, and something he said sticks with me to this day. "You are of no help to other people if you cannot help people in your own community." That struck me seeing as he's from the Philippines, a poor country, and him saying that we need to help ourselves before we can help anyone else. I always cringe when I see the those commercials set to pathetic music showing these starving kids in Africa/ Philippines/ Honduras/ect and I wonder why they don't show the starving kid living in Chicago. Or the family that is sick and malnourished living in Mississippi. If we can't even help our own here, then how can we expect to help anyone else in the world? That example can be said about any well-to-do country.

I think Syria would be the best place.......

No, a lot of sites give them away for smaller games. The dev will give certain sites so many keys, or the site will buy so many keys, and they'll have random giveaways. Although, like I said, they are requiring an ass load of stuff to DL it. Don't have a twitter, and am not going to create one just to get a free game.

Maybe they'll want my SS number too. And it's not just a simple press it. You have to follow them on Twitter, Like on FB, and input email address.

Have you watched liveleak recently? lol

Am I the only one that read the title, "The popo got a penis"?

I'll more than likely live on base unless I find an amazing price somewhere off base. But how is Tampa as an area? I've heard it's like a ghetto? Being at Andrews, there's nothing to do around here. I'm really looking for a base with more of a community feel to it.

Revolutionary war is the one I find most interesting Although that and WW2 are really the only wars I find justified. Revolutionary war always seems to get no love. Those are the patriotic heroes fighting an enemy outmanned, outgunned, outtrained... The were nothing but a ragtag force that went toe to toe with best military in the world. All for themselves. An idea they believed in, not because they were ordered to; that's true patriotism.

Job isn't that bad. If you want experience that is actually meaningful, make sure you don't choose PRP bases on your dreamsheet (missile bases; no LE). Personally, I'm an introvert, so I don't mind being by myself in an area for 12 hours. Others hate it. But you'll normally do 70% security work, 30% LE work. Just be prepared for horrible shifts with no rhyme or reason. Currently I'm active and stationed at Andrews AFB, but after my deployment in few months I'll be at Macdill AFB in Florida. 2 HUGE tips I can give you, is choose a base that has a tech school based there, since it's more community oriented, thus will lead to more LE duties. Plus you'll feel like a badass when you get to go pick up a fellow airmen who is drunk at a local PD. Lol Second tip is don't let others bring you down. The majority of SF is full of washouts from other fields, and thus don't want to be there. As training goes, we train a lot. A lot of shooting. Rest of the AF will maybe fire a weapon 2 times in 4 years. SF usually shoots every 2 months. Plus there's lot's of specialities with security forces. I'm gonna try for Phoenix Raven here pretty soon. If you have any questions about the AF or recruiting, shoot me a PM. Glad to help.

So we got another Security forces guy? Cool man, you won't regret it, if you like law enforcement. Just plan on a lot more security work over LE. And as a heads up, don't ever say SecFo. Only officers and Army call us that, and it makes us cringe. If you are security forces and you say it, you'll be punched; friendly advice. :)

Holy hell! That's for the Explorer's? If I'm gonna be yelled at and degraded I better get to shoot shit! Nothing like being bitched at, and then unloading an m240 through a cinder block wall.

I don't know what you're saying "wat" to. Never called you stupid or ignorant. If you're really this hurt by it, pm me. I'm done carrying this out in this thread.
