- people are 'literally fighting for their lives' in Somalia, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq Darfur, Sudan, Palestine, Israel, Indonesia,...Gnash
- In the USA people are fighting for equality of outcome.Gnash
- You need at least some equality of outcome, otherwise society is going to go off the rails. I don't see why this is inherently a bad thing.yuekit
- Equality of opportunity is what society needs. Everyone's outcome will vary depending on who they are and how they participate.Gnash
- Doesn't opportunity vary though between a rich person and a poor person? How do you control for equality of opportunity between someone born in a slum vs.yuekit
- someone who inherits millions? The idea that you can ever have anything approaching equality of opportunity is a fantasy.yuekit
- equal access to education, services (health, daycare etc), and employment isn't a fantasy.Gnash
- currently, there are barriers to all those things for many people. Those are the barriers that need to be brought down, not some rusty statueGnash
- It's good to have access to those things but keep in mind the U.S. already does spend a lot of money on education and health care for the poor and lower middleyuekit
- class. The programs that exist are mostly catering to poor people on the basis of income rather than race, gender etc.yuekit
- But it would be ridiculous to think that just because an inner city kid gets access to public education and is covered by Medicaid or some other welfareyuekit
- program, therefore he is "equal in opportunity" with Ivanka or Barron Trump. Most wealth is inherited and most rich people were born into rich families.yuekit
- are you suggesting taking all private wealth and distributing it equally to the populace is the only way to ensure equality?Gnash
- if we both go to the same design school, should we each be guaranteed the same job, even if you're more talented than I, or a harder worker?Gnash
- it's not the responsibility of the gov't to make sure we both have the same stuff. only that we both have equal opportunity to get that stuff.Gnash
- some people start with a leg up. sucks, but a lot of those people fail anyway. it's no guarantee for success.Gnash
- Yeah I'm not saying there's an easy solution, or even that there is a solution. I just think this idea of equality of opportunity is a bit of a false concept.yuekit
- And since the playing field is never really going to be level, therefore you have to pay at least some attention to the outcome.yuekit

Otherwise these pussies get to "play" Nazis for the day.

NYT White House correspondent just tweeted this...
Trump says the mother of the woman killed said ‘‘the nicest things about me.’’
I do hope they got that on tape. He's actually insane. Surely there's a mechanism for removing someone from office in this condition?
- what in the actual fuck
he's a mental midget unfit to manage a childs lemonade stand.kona - It's going to take a lot to unpick this. I fear he's gearing up for a conflict to up his ratings on a last chance saloon deal.monoboy
- One can only hope — indeed, plead — that the overwhelming majority of people in the US would see that 'Wag the Dog' scenario for exactly what it would be.Continuity
- wow. what a loonGnash
- what in the actual fuck
- Ramanisky21
- It beggars belief that this kind of world view is actually prevalent in the US, and proudly displayed. These fuckers are tooled up and angry.monoboy
- I think I'd actually arm myself if I lived near any of these cunts.monoboy
- Ironically, she's driving a BMW - a car company that provided the Nazis with vehicles and used slave labor during WWIIGM278

trump is president when jobs continue to grow, stocks up etc but still manages to have the lowest approval rating.
the only thing he has left is appeal to flag and war
- the president can't articulate what he has done to cause that growth, believe it or notmonospaced

- omg, are you seriously defending nazi hate agenda now?!plash
- he always has, plus he supports the idiot president.monospaced
- plash, i know it may sound crazy. but the constitutional rights that protects the citizens of America also protects them.********
- ^ Hahaha
ohhh please stop my sides are killing me.Ramanisky2 - It protects from the government oppression not from the citizen reactionsplash
- That's a two-way street that should be respected in my opinion.********
- Of course it protects their beliefs. They aren't being punished for them. It doesn't protect them from people who won't stand for it.monospaced
- It protects their right to call a black man a nigger to his face. It doesn't protect him from getting his as beat for it though.monospaced
- It just seems the left have been really demonstrating their intolerance towards others. Justifying their disrespect and justifying criminal activity.********
- Hahahah
Good one omg, gooooooood one.Ramanisky2 - come on guys, don't fall for another fucking troll. hedge, yuri, omg, everyone. just fucking ignore their vaccuumjaylarson

- he's a day or two away from just ending every post with "white power". he's truly the most despicable person herekona
- It was a car accident. A tragic event caused by Antifa and their illegal protest killed her.********
- Your mother (sister?) should be charged with crimes against humanity for not having an abortion when she was pregnant with you.Continuity
- by your logic we better avoid protesting in the future, because you know, by fault of our own... a nazi might drive over my skull with a car.inteliboy
- you missed the part where his car was attacked which probably caused the accident to begin with.********
- if you watch the video, you can see the car getting smashed while the driver was in the car.********
- let's see how well you drive when getting chased by an angry mob in the middle of an area declared a state of an emergency.********
- Your rancid mental gymnastics isn't fooling anyone, you nonce.face_melter
