bigshank We seem to have more of an abundance of evil assholes in the world than ever before

Agreed I think we've seen a sharp rise in conjunction with many failures in American society. I don't really answers nor solutions to that. I've got some but, it's really complex. At the most basic level it's Parents! (I get kind of torqued about those who blame teachers and schools. Our schools have been failing the kids if one just looks at academic data - grades, test scores etc... But I'd suggest that it's many parents who fail both their kids and schools. Good parents support those educators to whom they entrust the care of their kids. But FFS, parents shouldn't expect schools and teachers to raise their kids. Parents would be wise to partner with their children's teachers.)

    Par4QC Well, what a terrible thing to say about someone's daughter!

    Nah, that's some good humor there!

      rsvman2 I think you seriously underestimate Andy Reid. Give him two weeks to prepare and he will come up with a gold game plan. And at the half he made the right adjustments.

      Ever seen Andy Reid's team's record in their games following their bye week? Pretty outstanding.

        professor how about stop letting criminals plea down to lesser charges in exchange for information about someone else... you get caught as a felon in possession of a firearm, you get the book thrown at you...
        How about we stop making jails places the criminals don't mind going to. How about we make them more like work camps where they do some hard work, or pick up trash, and make them miserable while they are incarcerated...
        Why should their victims be the ones to suffer? Make the punishment fit the crime again... then again, I'm for public execution, and chain gangs....

            Once again the liberal crowd comes in and shits all over a thread promoting far left politics. Good thing it wasn't anyone from the right saying anything as 1/2 would be saying , " oh, no politics". I'm not going to comment on anything further, but it would be nice for you crackpots to leave politics out like the rest of us are trying to do.

              Walterjn Not going to happen. The undocumented criminals attacking the cops in NYC is a prime example of what they want. Decriminalize crime...come on in.

                  sdandrea1 both. It just depends on where YOU stand. I want law and order back in this country. I also want smaller government.
                  Those who want larger government and less law and order think I'm crazy, while I think they are crazy.
                  It's all perspective....

                      I agree with smaller government and stronger law and order. Trouble is I have not seen much of either in my 68 yrs on mother Earth.
                      I hear a lot of bullshit talk about them both.

                      What the fuck are you talking about?! That sentence doesn't even make any damn sense; 'liberal crowd comes in and promotes far left politics"? Example? Clarify what "far left politics"?

                        Seems contradictory to me. So you want more law enforcement, more prisons (I'll assume penitentiaries and jails too) and simultaneously less government? That's odd.

                              No one brought political to this thread but you.
                              And, it's obvious you have no knowledge nor understanding of the problem at our border and who's trying to escape certain death as refugees. But you wouldn't grasp the difference. And you more than likely wouldn't pass the exam to gain citizenship. Just make sure anyone doing work at your house is paying their laborers a fair and taxed wage. If you get a price break for paying cash, you're only about you. Hope you went to church today!

                                  professor Don't bother communicating with me. Go watch CNN or something and take the bullshit to the water cooler.

                                      The issue of a modern civilized society that normalizes mass shootings and gun violence actually should be apolitical. Again, it should be a public health / safety issue.

                                      If wanting a society with less mass shootings / gun violence is considered far left, then count me in. Meanwhile the thoughts and prayers solution seems to be doing absolutely nothing.

                                      Having a mass shooting at a Super Bowl parade should be a shocking abhorrent event. But in these times it’s just another ho hum statistic. Next!!!
