This forum's agenda ? Everyone here believes democrats win in a landslide ? Quite apart from the fact that this forum has no agenda it is clear that there is no consensus among contributors as to who will win on November 5.

Many serious issues being debated here such as abortion and immigration but, to focus on the headline topic, my bookmaker is still offering odds-on a comfortable win for Trump come November 5. I hope he's right, not because I like Trump, but because I backed him to win at a time when his odds were 1-3 against.

No, it really isn't fair. It only works because Immigration offices allow it to. They could stop it tomorrow if they wished.

Fair point. Have a nice day.

Nice one !

I referred to Roman times, not to the Romans as immigrants. Learn how to read.

Speaking as a Brit I would say that immigration to my country, going back to Roman times, has done more good than harm, albeit somewhat haphazardly organised in the past. However, these days, there is a system to be followed to obtain legal entry. It must be very frustrating for those who take the time and trouble to follow that system to see the beneficial treatment currently given by the authorities to the illegals who find ways to enter by evading the system. That is what makes people angry, and that is what makes immigration a contentious issue today in many of our countries.

The cruelty that pigs, and many other animals, suffer while being raised, transported and slaughtered, is appalling. Eating animals is disgusting.

Who said something about dirty foreigners ? His name escapes me. Anu..... ?

Any volunteer should commit to exercising a pit bull, and several other breeds, over a 3 mile stretch at least three times a day. Otherwise, don't even think about it.

I doubt this will deter many. So much of what we consume is harmful to us, including alcohol and cigarettes, but people continue to indulge. For myself, at 83 years old. I have always given anything a try at least once during my lifetime, and I may just give THC vape a shot.

Haiti is one of several countries, Including Korea, China and Vietnam, where, sadly, cats and dogs are eaten.

I wonder how the family and friends of the young man he so brutally killed feel about this.

....and hide in cupboards, and adopt strange accents..

Very sad. The Britain I grew up in is broken and beyond repair. Sharia will predominate within 30-50 years.

Many countries wish to deport illegal immigrants, not least because their presence is grossly unfair to those who have taken the trouble to enter legally. However the illegals are supported by a number of clandestine lawyers which complicates the issue.

Because it's now available in Thai, not only in English as previously.

...and guns, gangs and ganja...

Yes indeed. When I worked in Saudi in the early 80s he could well have been topped for this, probably on TV.

As a fellow 82 year old I have no sympathy for him whatever his circumstances. His action puts all the rest of us foreigners under suspicion. Unforgivable.

Open the A/C for a short time, thereafter fan only.

Thank you. Have a nice day .

My former wife and myself agreed she should abort her third pregnancy for physical and mental health reasons. That decision has troubled us both ever since. Not a subject to be taken lightly, and certainly not a subject to be used to score political points.

Not an American, nor a fan of either candidate, but I really think Harris should not be blaming Trump for the sad deaths of these women. Low and shabby for her to do that in my opinion. Condolences to the family and friends of those who died, and RIP to the deceased.

Quite a few taxi drivers have fallen to sleep with me on board over the years. Thankfully always when stopped at red lights, not when in motion.
