  1. Really? How so? I'm 65 and not entitled until I'm 66... I should read all before commenting....
  2. Me too. Maybe there's a problem with us?
  3. To be frank, it doesn't matter to some people what system is used. Handwriting an X in a box on a piece of paper and relying on some person counting those votes, or machines that feed into a computer. What election deniers fail to appreciate is what's good for the goose is good for the gander. Once someone in one party starts calling an election as stolen because someone from another party is verified as having won, it leaves the door open for the opposite to happen, later down the road.
  4. Possession of a machine gun is generally legal in more than two-thirds of states, according to an analysis published by the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, as long as the gun was lawfully possessed prior to May 19, 1986, the day President Ronald Reagan signed a major gun law. Thirty-five states have “minimal or no regulation” of machine guns, according to the Giffords analysis. Sorry guy, you're wrong....
  5. I'm not sure any weapon, considered to be an 'arm', can be banned, under my interpretation... Give everyone a weapon, the federal government should not infringe this right.
  6. I'm sure he'll profess the same opinion if one of more of his direct family were shot and killed. Like his kids, for example.
  7. Have a look at SCOTUS rulings. DC v Heller for example. The militia means every one and 'arms' are not defined.
  8. He doesn't threaten. You infer he does. Did you ask a child if they felt threatened?
  9. He, he...? What about all these highly paid military men...sorry, people...experts in what they do, so I'm told.
  10. I think if you have to ask this forum, you already know the answer.
  11. In Isaan, they been doing this for years.
  12. I see what your feelings are regarding home working....
  13. No <deleted> Sherlock. Coups are the way of Thailand and have been for every long time. This is the Thai way.
  14. Ah socialism. The rich pay for the poor....Nooooooooo. Equal opportunities for all....Noooooooo. Let them suffer and die. I'm ok....until I lose my job and insurance. Then the shoe is elsewhere....
  15. From what I read, it won't be an issue in the US if certain people have their way... lobbying for the 'eradication' of transgenderism.
  16. Tax paying...? All Thai nationals pay tax?p as for voting rights, it is different everywhere. But, it does remind me of the three fifths compromise and re-districting going on in the US now.I An MP represents Thai natonals, in a place that would have a small Thai population in relation to a foreign population. For example, areas in Bangkok that have a relatively large foreign population to Thai population ratio. Money allocated without taking this into account effectively mpoverishes the area. By area, the MP would have a larger constituency compared to an area that has few foreigners. I understand the differences between representation and census, but the 2 are interdependent.
  17. What about the spycam? Who installed it, who watches it? Everyone gambles in private, or in places they think are private or where it is accepted.at Spycams are insidious. Unregulated. Big brother. Chinese made probably.
  18. Khmer. That's the word that's contentious. Cambodia, Thailand are both countries. Khmer is an ethnic group. Several people who I know are Thai nationals with Khmer roots. To be a Khmer dessert, would it not mean it was created by Khmer people, irrespective of where they were, or is a dessert identified by the country in which it was created? Either way, there are far more important things to worry about than desserts and boxing.
  19. Is it lawful? If so, what's the problem?
  20. Presume or assume... I have 2 passports issued by the same country for travel to incompatible countries...
  21. That's the spirit in the bottle? Very powerful. you believe what you want to believe, let others believe what they want to believe.
  22. And you know this for sure? You knew him, met him?
  23. The question in my mind is: If the package was the size of 3 busses, as I seem to recall was reported in UK news, why was it not spotted earlier? It made Alaska and Canada....
  24. Working from home gives flexibility to both employer and employee. I prefer working from home as I can work earlier or later as I choose. I also don't have the interruptions I have in the office. The vast majority of my work is research and admin, which needs to be done without meaningless chit chat and interaction with people who feel they need to tell you stuff that has no relevance. Perhaps I am antisocial, I don't care, as long as my work is done to the standard required and in the timeframe required.
