can you read at all? I posted the chart that has just that sort of data. The fact is you are wrong in that statement, try forming an opinion based on reality instead of your feelings. you can't even get data from places like Nigeria because it is so bad. Mexico has very strict gun laws, are...

no, that was not the point If you want perfectly safe then you are a hopeless intellect

The salient question to ask is: "does the presence of guns make murder more likely?" The answer- see my chart on page 1. The answer is no. Once someone decides to kill you, the manner of death is not the issue, yet shallow thinkers want to make it so. As shown, the worst mass murders...

they may not be the solution, but they are not the problem either

baaahhh ahhh *slapping my knee, tears in my eyes* I just want to follow you around and suck up your second hand hooch smoke in the hopes of getting some of what you got now how but dem Lakers?

QE turns out to be a way to give government money to banks, I agree. But the fees they collect for taking fed money are not really what I'm talking about. The cash does it make it out into the economy in the form of gov't deficit spending. Ok but deficit spending is not producing results...

inflation is the other threat to dollar devaluation, and it's probably the larger risk Bernanke has a choice, he just won't do it. He has now officially jumped into bed with the democrats by funding their spending with QE and tying QE to an unemployment rate, however dubious that rate is...

Gun ban people are an emotional, and they hate gun owners anyway since they tend to vote conservative. They have no logical argument. A total gun ban will never pass right now in the US, many midwestern swing states like wisconsin, ohio, etc. have high gun ownership rates and you would have...

weeee weeee look at me! weee weeee ... healthcare, phones, and birkenstocks all for free!

hey everybody! I'm a 'carefree' liberal know-it-all weee... feels sooo good to not have to think.... weeee I feel like a driveby and a giggle

The people of identity politics always feel like their worth is tied to the success of the group they identify with. They have a constant Us vs. Them mentality and so they won't be happy unless their team 'wins'. They obsess about every aspect of this percieved competition between, in this case...

copy-n-paste I know, but relevant, and seriously depressing http://money.cnn.com/2012/12/14/news/economy/federal-reserve-unemployment/index.html?iid=Lead

I have said that several times, that is what I have observed about black people. Here's the rub, even by just stating that reality, all the white liberals and blacks will hate me for it. Out come the names, NAZI, etc. so... we can't ever honestly even state the reality unless your a black...

I don't know What is the point of an exchange market when everyone has freshly printed dollars? Nobody in their right mind holding dollars will want a new reserve because that would negate their 'wealth'. The only apparent alternative would be the Euro, what a joke. China isn't going to just...

why does there always have to be a gov't solution to 8 sigma events, WHY?

I know women who keep guns just like whacko's mom did. They want hand guns for home defense, they are not comfortable with even something as small as a 30/30. In a panick, honestly I can't imagine trying to load up a lever action 30/30, it wasn't the easiest and it would jam up sometimes...

I am trying to imagine the enormous pressure this new ZIRP policy might put on the fed to continue QEx as well. Since we have 1) negative real GDP growth (8% GDP deficit to finance 2% GDP growth) 2) continued weakness in bond markets, no way to keep up ZIRP without QE 3) serious issues...

The fact is the gov't keeps making this 'obligation' larger and it never has enough money. 3% won't solve this, not even close. The point republicans are making is that it is time to also then get serious about cuts.

The majority blacks don't even know what his policies are. You can't talk about much with them since all they can see is black skin and a gov't check.

Tell me why then republicans are also trying to plug this hole in medicare. All they have to do is allow Obamacare to take hold and then can rightfully blame the fiasco on Obamacare. Republicans- "we need medicare cuts"... Cantor - "we have to plug this medicare hole" Cantor will NEVER get...
