The half naked motorcycle rider  problem has reached pandemics proportions and need to be stopped. 

I don't care which half is naked IMO half neked is hald naked.

leniency should be shown toward quarter naked motorcycle riders, three quarter naked motorcycle riders  should have book thrown at them.  Monocycles should be excluded 

The woman should be congratulated for he vigilance in the pursuit of justice and the Thai way!!

We bought some paint that the salesman recommended from a builders merchant to paint the wifes daughters bathroom door, and it was painstaking to paint, the paint ran better than Sebastian Coe, It did look better but not great. I would go with your idea and buy a new door, not expensive to buy if my memory serves me well.

I would recommend the same. I was at Do home (khon Kaen) this morning and the had a door sale display outside with some very good prices,. I think the paint might cost as much as buying a door, but I understand if you don't feel confident , don't feel like  changing a whole door, hinges and lock.

The use of an ambulance in the act raised questions about the legality and morality of such a portrayal.

Yes indeed, ambulances should never be used in entertainment venues,

Its use should be banned from movies, tv shows and live theater, furthermore all movies and or TV shows that depict such ambulance use should be collected and  have the image of the abulace pictulated, or covered with a smiley face, and any ambulance sounds be replaced by bong boing sounds. 

Personally  I am outraged, and highly disturbed!!  Well truth be told, mostly disturbed.

If a door is closed no one can walk through it. If a door is open anyone can walk through it.

 

Trump was building a wall to stop people walking in illegally. Biden stopped building the wall, so people can walk through easily in the gaps. Sooooo, Biden kept the border open to illegals

Yea you do, you need to speak slower and use smaller words with me . 

Your analogy does not apply and depend on your assertion that the borders are open, which clearly they are not, since you need a visa to come to the US.

Now would you please explain how with a labor force participation rate of about 60%, low wages, and rents at or just off of all-time how millions of people that do not share the language and culture, will likely never assimilate, are often illiterate in their native language and will immediately be put on public assistance, given free medical care and education with benefit working class Americans?

The problem that many American have and that politicians use,  is that immigrants that have not yet assimilated are visible  by their otherness, where those who have are not. And a bigger problem for Hispanics is that they are the highest percentage of immigrant are Hispanic thus more visible, 

Later generations of hispanics assimilate at the same rate as others.

Cancer cannot be eliminated by evolution.

 

Most cancers occur after humans have finished breeding, so any genetic predisposition to cancer is not part of the natural selection process.

I never said it would. 

Bu your theory  that cancer can't be eliminated by evolution is not entirely correct since as you say some can.

I said that cancer is part of the evolutionary process and  to eliminate one would adversely effect  the other. 

"Cancer development within an individual is also an evolutionary process, which in many respects mirrors species evolution. Species evolve by mutation and selection acting on individuals in a population; tumors evolve by mutation and selection acting on cells in a tissue. "

Exactly. Right now, it is open for the people that cross illegally, and closed to people (like me) that cross legally. I would like it closed to everyone without a legal reason to cross

All the laughing emojis in the world you'd not make what you said right. 

You said the border was open, now you say . the border is closed for some " like me" and open for others  "that cross illegally " ,  

First even if we are to accept your assertion , it would still not be open. it would be partially open for illegals 

But even the partially open part is wrong .and the date shows it.  and so that you don't say that I use leftist fake news , I will give you ultra conservative CATO institute 

"According to new data published last month, the Biden Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has removed a higher percentage of arrested border crossers in its first two years than the Trump DHS did over its last two years. Moreover, migrants were more likely to be released after a border arrest under President Trump than under President Biden.

In absolute terms, the Biden DHS is removing 3.5 times as many people per month as the Trump DHS did. These figures are important for understanding how each administration has carried out border enforcement."

You make no sense. What does the border being open or closed have to do with whether or not crossing it is legal?

If the border was open the would crose in the "open" they would not be illegal. Obviously the border is not open, you need visas,and there are border guards. No person in their right mind would think the border is open other than a trumster. You just don't like the degree in which the border is closed. 

You want it closed more.

I have discussed it and explained it more and better than anyone else, 

I have provided fertility rates, I have provided links to articles in economic Journal that talk about issue and the economic problems it presents to many countries.

I have shown how The US has some of the same fertility issues but that is mitigated my legal and illegal Migration. 

I have shown how countries not capable or willing to mitigate the fertility issue with Migration are doing a lot worse than the US
