I always liked older women. I remember the one that taught me not to say thank you. I have a problem with an old man with a minor though. | ||

Equal rights, equal responsibilities. Although I share your sentiments around a double standard. But, legally there cannot be one. | ||

The sad part of life is the child I saw with a pedophile for a dad. I met the child when he was 2 years old. I discovered his dad was a pedophile years later. I always hoped the cycle would not repeat itself. A few weeks ago out of the blue I did an internet search for the kid. On a hunch I searched for his first name and his mom's first and middle name as a tattoo. Bingo, there he is in all his glory "pedophile". Back in the day I had a girlfriend who's daughter was molested by this guys dad. I saw clues but didn't know till decades later. | ||

Baal the god of climate change? Well, he liked babies tossed on the fire burning in his temples, according to his priests, so maybe Baal was a greenie. His followers weren't fond of Jews, so leftist, certainly. And the only impression I recall from movies was from Beastmaster, a fantasy that got all the archeological details wrong, so the fact free aspect is there, too. But I may be one of only dozens left alive that remember that movie.... So I can't say it's embedded in popular culture. Tiger, hawk, and Tanya Roberts! Rip Torn as the high priest! Hmm.... 1982? Maybe that IS the pop culture Baal. | ||

According to Brittanica, "Baal, god worshipped in many ancient Middle Eastern communities, especially among the Canaanites, who apparently considered him a fertility deity and one of the most important gods in the pantheon. ... He was also called the Lord of Rain and Dew, the two forms of moisture that were indispensable for fertile soil in Canaan." The reason I always thought of Baal as the weather god was the way his prophets were confronted in the bible. The Hebrew's prophet called for a drought (not a short one) Then challenged Baal's prophets to a duel. The premise: We will call down fire from heaven to consume a sacrifice. After teasing and taunting Baal's worshipers, them nor Baal being successful. The Hebrew tells them to soak his wood in water. It hasn't rained in years, but they come up with water to soak his wood. He calls down fire and it comes lapping up the water along the way. Then.... well I don't want to spoil the story. I saw the attack as being an attack on their Baal. That Hebrew God is a Jealous God. Elijah was the only prophet left alive when he took on the 450 prophets of Baal. He wore out Ahab and ticked off Jezebel. I Kings chapters 18 and 19 are packed with action. God had 7,000 people at that time in Israel that had knees that had not bowed to Baal and and every mouth which hath not kissed him. | ||

I watched beastmaster about 100 times as a kid. Loved that movie. I don’t want to watch it again. I doubt it aged well. I will let it live as a happy memory. | ||

https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2018/12/oca sio-cortez-watch.php It's important, really, not to.lie about politicians. Hyphen Cortez is more than capable of being ignorant and dishonest without help. There has to be a real difference between us & them. I prefer it to be That we stand for objective truth. Just being nicer while "they" use violence and oppress your Rights is a strategy used by many groups in the past. Often it means that they are oppressed and murdered in genocidal lots. Not my acceptable place in society. I'm happy with being more competent at violence if I'm on the side of truth. My willingness to use violence is based on very old moral values, based on objective reality and historical context. | ||

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2018/12/lower ing_the_legal_drinking_age.html The real reason old men changed the drinking age is young men were taking over their bars just like they had years before. They felt their refuge from their wives was going away as the music changed with the demographic. Then these selfish codgers ignored that 18 year olds are sent to war and were legal adults in every way. Then used blackmail to push their lies of highway safety excuse and over reaction on the rest of the country by withholding tax dollars for highways unless they were Obeyed. By now, many of the original uptight, mean, old men have died from excess bile. It's past time to reject ageist laws by jealous old Gollums who tried to cover up impotence with blustering naked power plays. | ||

Zack, as an Olde school liberal, I'm with you on that philosophy. Progressives, of course, take it as a challenge to their supremacy. How dare you? Their self given right to run your life is vital to their self image as better, smarter, holier than thou luminous beings. After all, wasn't Barry Godlike? ( Also surprisingly clean and amazingly spoke intelligible English, according to 2020 Presidential candidate Joe "rub the children" Biden. ) This next is sarcasm & not real news. I have to say so up front since it's perfectly in character with the people mentioned. http://www.politicoat.com/news-reporter-spaced-dur ing-hillary-clinton-labor-day-flight/ | ||

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2018/12/franc es_macron_offers_up_economic_succor_from_nicolas_m aduros_playbook.html https://www.rhinocarhire.com/Car-Hire-Blog/May-201 8/French-Speed-Limits-2018.aspx Never mentioned that I know of on Lamestream media, and rarely on conservative media, is that the speed limit in France was dropped from 90 to 80 kph on rural ( not autoban/expressway ) roads this year by dictatorial decree. So.... 56 down to 50. To save the planet. Aka make Macron a hero to the watermelon party. No gas crisis, like when Nixon proposed a 45 mph emergency temporary limit during an Arab Israeli war. But Congress wasn't giving Tricky Dick Anything, so they bumped it to 55, and we suffered unnecessarily for decades. Expect more of that petty crud the next 2-6 years. Why did Macron lower the speed limit? To stop Global Warming. After all, it didn't affect him. His armored vehicles don't obey any speed limits, and he lives in Paris where it doesn't apply. F$%& the peasants! The city/country divide is not that different than here. The City population votes in leftist and the country rubes suffer. The People that raise the food, work in factories, pay the taxes, join the Army, and collect the least amount of welfare are the exurban & country folk just like most modern nations. Raising the wage, by decree, just raises the costs and prices away jobs. See Venezuela for the normal results, or Seattle & the other wage hike cities for the beginning of the slide. So as you watch the riots in Paris, know the News isn't telling you anything like the whole story. 6 mph sounds insignificant but it's a huge imposition on Millions of people and a police crackdown is part of that. More speeding tickets, fines on the tickets, ( New York adds a tax/fine on top of your ticket too ) more revenue for the National Police, and more hostile interactions with the population. | ||

https://www.tabletmag.com/jewish-news-and-politics /276694/is-the-womens-march-melting-down Long article. Short form, the Women's Match was taken over by Jew hating folk related to Nation Of Islam and I'm betting stole millions. Since any criticism or questioning is declared an attack by racist right wingers, including the women who started the March & were deposed and rejected by the current, very rich, actual racists, don't expect this to get resolved. | ||

From: https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2018/12/lower ing_the_legal_drinking_age.html "Many minors with alcohol poisoning refuse to seek medical help, or help their intoxicated peers seek medical help," Would anyone care to comment on the logic of that statement? G} | ||
| Aesquire |
"No, no, we can't call 911, my parents will find out." | ||
| Aesquire |
Can't speak to the logic. Can say it's observed fact. 20 plus years doing volunteer first aid work at camping events, I learned that alcohol poisoning patients will refuse treatment to keep parents from finding out. Also learned that drunks can't give or withold consent. So I just ignore "I'm fine, leave me alone" when they are covered in vomit and can't walk on their own. When they are minors, they get treated and parents notified. I assure you, the conversation at 4 in the morning telling parents their kid has been transported to the hospital, free of charge, and they need to get some coffee and go take care of them, is a much better conversation than explaining where the morgue is, to go claim the body. Ever so much better. I've sweated to have the better conversation. | ||

On the drinking age question. First, simple fairness. If I can send an 18 year old to take a hill or die for his country, how can I approve a law that took away his right to have a beer? Remember, the drinking age was 18. Then it changed. Why is obvious, as I already stated. The EXCUSE was some old farts that have drunk & drove & mostly got away with it, and now have the power to really get away with it, didn't want people to learn to drive & drink at the same age. Bull. And worse, Congresscritters who get busted often get away with drunk driving even when they chair the committee on drunk driving. Happened in NY. If the rationalization is to be believed, then lowering the drinking age to 15 would have done the job nicely. But to suggest that brought ridicule and accusations of criminal intent. For all the sexualization of children in pop culture and Hollywood support for actual pedophile rapists, & the drug culture, there remains a puritanical streak in American culture that ruins lives for Victorian sexual hypocrisy reasons. Nothing could convince a teen that his government was a bunch of hypocrites more than the drinking law changes. PLural. Ok, maybe all the cocaine addicts in government. My sister was 18, in college, legal to drink, when they took the right away by raising the age to 19. Then, at 19, legal, again, AGAIN they took the right away by raising the age to 21. Imagine the respect for the rule of law that would give you. Today, the Mayor can do cocaine and hookers but a 19 year old with a tour of duty in Afghanistan can't drink 3.2 beer? You want young people to do something? Forbid them. Do it with naked hypocrisy while doing it yourself at lavish parties to raise money to get campaign money. | ||

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/dec/16/j udge-reed-oconnors-obamacare-ruling-poses-new-pro/ My heart doesn't bleed for the Republican establishment. I mostly want them in prison. In Turkey. ( I mostly want the Dems in Indonesian prisons ) The Stupid Party can salvage a win. I doubt they will, 'cause, stupid. Pass a healthcare reform act with 4 lines. Only. No preexisting conditions reason to deny or overcharge for health insurance. ( yes, I know the problems ) Eliminate State monopolies. You can buy insurance from other States. Open, transparent pricing. Eliminate limited "open seasons" on purchasing insurance. NOTHING ELSE. See what happens. Then fix the problems. Republicans also need to pass a legal budget, the first in a decade. Or a bill that cancels all other laws passed since Congress last did their jobs. Nothing new until a legal, balanced budget is passed. No pay either. They owe us 10+ years of back pay. Have the IRS take it. ( hey! It's less harsh than my first impulse, which is Redacted ) | ||
