  1. I think it celebrates victory in WWI, which saw Thailand on the side of the British and French.
  2. I just completed this quiz. My Score 20/100 My Time 72 seconds  
  3. Libraries are a place of freedom and access to knowledge. Censorship had been proven not to work. If people can't read Lady Chatterley's Lover in a library, they will pass around on grubby illegal copies. Books just don't kill people. Not so sure about guns.
  4. Don't gamble except in a government casino.
  5. The Great Fire of London started in a bakery too. That's how things start. Just saying.
  6. There goes billion dollar missiles, main battle tanks and other expensive gizmos.
  7. Many people will be calling him a coward for this. Not me.
  8. I don't believe Thai politicians think about long term solutions. They refused to believe Dutch experts when we had that massive flood in 2011. My guess is they will go for quick stopgaps like a wall here and there while buying up all the highland property they can.
  9. I agree that people should be given equal respect but the coach could always choose a full team of female-by-birth players based on skill.
  10. Seems there is flooding every year or so but the junta didn't do anything. One day I suppose...
  11. Satan killed only 10 people in the whole bible. God killed millions (with the flood, plagues etc ). Satan tortures only bad people in hell. God gives babies brain cancer. Hmm...
  12. Weird that someone would sign a peace agreement with these animals. Shame.
  13. I don't think 10% will go gambling. Better to ask how many gamble on the lottery.
  14. https://www.cnbc.com/2017/02/07/many-dont-know-obamacare-and-affordable-care-act-are-the-same-thing.html I think evidence counts. I believe AN thinks so too. P.S. you could simply Google "do Americans think Obamacare and the affordable care act are different".
  15. Read it. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/07/upshot/one-third-dont-know-obamacare-and-affordable-care-act-are-the-same.html
  16. If you weren't such an idiot calling people liars without evidence I wouldn't do this. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/07/upshot/one-third-dont-know-obamacare-and-affordable-care-act-are-the-same.html https://www.cnbc.com/2017/02/07/many-dont-know-obamacare-and-affordable-care-act-are-the-same-thing.html Kind of makes Americans look foolish.
  17. You weren't there.
  18. Seems like disenfranchisement. Cheating was never a big problem before.
  19. Just saw that Arizona republicans got the supreme court to prevent people from voting without proof of citizenship. They must be desperate. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj087qrp3jro
  20. Partially, the problem lies with the poor education system and lack of factual information in the public domain. I had dinner with an old American woman a few years ago. She told me she really hated Obamacare as it was created by that horrible black guy. However, she really liked the Affordable Care Act.
  21. Good grief, how many people were in the room? Was it an orgy?
  22. Does anyone know WHERE she will be sending them to? Back to their home countries? Very expensive. Back to France? I doubt the French will agree. Certainly not Rwanda. Destroying the gangs that arranged for them to enter the UK is probably the best idea. Confiscate the money they made.
  23. Cash - the easiest way to disappear funds.
  24. Is he a Republican? No reference to his political affiliation online that I could find.
  25. There was no political deal. It was purely financial.
