This shit is everywhere. I want it gone!

This is horrible. The carnage, the senseless destruction of life, the trauma that will stay forever with survivors, the attack on liberalism.
How can one feel safe around people that think this life is temporary and that better things await them after death?
How do you reason with people that don't value life, even their own?
This is a clash of civilisations.

This is what they debate about? Jesus fucking christ.
It's fucking insane.

I hope it's a hung parliament.
But which ever way it goes, likely Liberal, the senate won't be kind. You hardly have a mandate if you scrap across the line.
Well well well

Nobody's saying voters should be ignored on the whim of a few. But voters are often uninformed on major issues with irreversible consequences. Like the article said, we're not talking about making a tax or policy change that can be fixed if it doesn't work out. Countries don't vote to break up or go to war based on the popular vote for this reason because not everyone has all the information to make such far-reaching decisions. Have referendums on social policy issues, sure, but the prospect of secession from the EU should never have been a referendum topic, just as Americans would think it's ludicrous to suggest that secession is a desirable fix for the issues we have with the government.
I feel like you're making a lot of comparisons to the US political situation, when the reality is this is completely different for many reasons most Americans don't understand.
Great post!
Be wary of the low information voter.

Australia has some of the strictest immigration laws in the world.
Erm, Australia with a population of 24 million and takes around 200,000 migrants pa. We have the growth rate of a third world country. It is insane.
Take a look at Japan if you want to see a strict migration system.

I'm not a Republican and I'm not defending them, but they would say that they believe that people can have a gun in their house to defend themselves in case someone invades their home, but there is no reason to have a gun at a public event like the convention where there is tons of professional security guards and police who are armed.
They would never say that. They want them allowed everywhere. Even in courthouses and federal buildings.
I was about to say Mauro, exactly. So again, why not the convention? What are they afraid of?
-
They should overturn their ban on guns at the convention. Very un-American.

How do you get an even finish with that?

Some officials worry about briefing Trump, fearing spilled secrets"If he reads the papers every day, he won't hear much that will surprise him," the official said.
Well, we know he doesn't!
Oh and Ms Hilary Rodham Clinton slayed in that speech.

The pure are impotent.

And how many of these so-called Christians are down at the shelter every other weekend dishing up soup for the homeless?
But I guess you wouldn't have time when you're busy shouting your head off in Target stores and chaining young girls in basements.

Well know we know why Obama bent down to kiss the ring of the Saudi King.

I guess coming out of the washing machine yellow is probably cleaner.

I hate it when schools don't fucking do anything to help kids like him and let the abuse go on!

They should've just let the little boy die. There're are so many kids. Gorillas are going extinct.
Humans really are a plague on this planet. We're responsible for the failing health of the environment and the rapid extinction of animals and plants.
Just can't have enough humans.

Aren't polls kinda unreliable in a country without mandatory voting? All those people giving their opinion might just end up staying home eating cheetos on poll day. Or more likely, work as you have elections during the working week.

I wanna respond to you ENSLAVER, but I'm too scared the Hillary supporters on her would rip me to shreds.
Put it in spoiler tags, they'll neva know.
Failed Military Coup In Turkey And Aftermath
in Politics and World Events
Posted
It's all very strange. From the news coverage I saw it seem like a pretty limp wristed affair for a military coup...
So sad
