There are two primary factors in measles: 1. Based on population density. 2. Based on population density. Don't be number two.

Rich, the reason you don’t get moderated is because you don’t do personal attacks or make jokes about pedophilia. But do understand, no one watches the videos suggested by someone who can’t seem to have two sentences in a row make sense. By and large, I don’t watch videos anyway; they’re almost always narratives designed to convince, they’re not information Wendy P.

Hi Keith, Would you please send that link to the White House. Jerry Baumchen

Greenville is about an hour from our house, we're willing to harbor illegal immigrants. We're also willing to hang out in public with you again. Also, I thought of you a couple of days ago after receiving a gift via post from some NSW ass hole. I need to get that thank you note out. I LOVE our skydiving family.

However it may seem to you, they're literally not so you legally can't. But I can see why just ignoring the details and simply pretending black is white instead is appealing to you, you've never been good with complex concepts.

The mother of the child who died of measles appeared in a video on Monday with Children’s Health Defense, the anti-vaccine organization. “We would absolutely not take the MMR. The measles wasn’t that bad" she said. So having your child die "wasn't that bad"? What kind of moron is this?

The puerile and denigrating name calling must top the list. Now it's Maggot Hagerman. He's the President of the United States of America and his skin is so thin that he needs to name call like a 5 year old. We are an embarrassment internationally and that is too sad to digest some days.

Hi John, I could not have said it better. Keith, you keep right on with what you are doing. You are truly an asset to this place. Jerry Baumchen

Let me guess, you personally know one or two?

Yes, even from Mexico. I have done it myself no VISA required. Her only "crime" that I can see is that she said she was entering and planning to apply for a work permit. Not actually a crime at all, but not the correct procedure. This led to a suspicion that perhaps she would work without one. Sort of like predicting that she might do so, and if a damned foreigner might do something like that the only thing to do is to feed her into the for profit ICE detention system.

You're right, that's how it was. Things started moving fast and until the specifics are hashed out, then CBP will post the new rules. Jakee, if you wanna be mad about something, join me in being mad about high school children who were born in this country to undocumented workers who've never committed a crime and are now being placed under the microscope. That's what should be on the table for discussion. For me, that is an egregious violation of the 14th amendment.

Canadians don't need tourist visas. They quite literally are allowed to come to the US then do the paperwork.

Thanks. I needed that laugh today. :)

Maybe it's just because it's Munday morning, but you guys have me all confused today. People blabbering while on weed or LSD - not sure which. Feigning admiration on Bigun and I thought we were supposed to be doing that for Felon Trump? I'm down for the fajitas though - I'll bring the Don Julio, not blanco, never.

Or it may simply result in your removal from said public square, as we have recently seen. Removing angry Veteran constituents seems to be the current response, while the crowd screams in support of the Veteran. yay

Actually, it is different; birthright citizenship is pretty rare. But it’s the law. If we’re going to be ruled by laws rather than whims, then we should change the laws according to the law, not by decree. Otherwise the next president can just change them right back. That’s been happening too much as it is, escalating things doesn’t help much Wendy P.

That attitude is a perfect example of the asinine arrogance that makes American’s detested the world over. Believe me a very large portion of the world has ZERO interest in being American. We are not and have never been sold on the American dream or the message that you’re the leaders of freedom and democracy. This goes back long before the Trump fiasco. Many other countries have better social services, lower crime rates, less religious influence, free and unrestricted access to porn (I believe if Americans had more boobs and less guns they would be happier), better healthcare and other factors that we are perfectly happy with. We don’t all see the hallowed ground of unfettered access to firearms as the holy grail of a perfect society. I love visiting the US, especially the southern states. There are many great people and in general some of the friendliest people I have met. I’ve been to 21 states and would rank my favourites in order as South Carolina, Texas, Georgia and New Mexico. Hardly liberal lefty states. Least favourite was New York followed by California. Over the past 25 years I’ve probably spent an accumulated total of around 4 years there, with most of that working alongside Americans. As a kid growing up fantasising about being a test pilot on fighter jets, one of my most treasured memories is working at the Lockheed facility in Fort Worth and having lunches in the canteen with test pilots for the JSF and F16. But there is nowhere in the US that would entice me to want to settle there permanently.

I believe there’s a process for changing the law. It doesn’t consist of the president saying “that sucks.” As far as the other post, yeah, but the post Vietnam war era is a little more recent, and the envoy’s original statement never made it onto a t shirt Wendy P.

AKA the peacetime equivalent of that post Vietnam-era t-shirt: shoot them all and let God sort them out Wendy P.

It certainly was a long read. I merely copied it from an FB post. Probably the longest one I have read in a long while. I find it remarkable that I used to think nothing of reading a book for hours, but in this time of social media something that takes 5 minutes seems like a struggle to get through.

Woke is a transmissible form of mental illness, as is any other religion, and should be limited in its spread. Per Amendment #1, you have the right to whatever system of delusion suits you, but you are proscribed from inflicting upon others. Somehow, it is viewed as a birthright of anyone on the planet to occupy the U. S. of A. if they can manage to touch base here. Interesting thought. If someone showed up in Tirana and explained that in Camden, New Jersey they were in fear of drug gangs and sundry violence, I imagine the Albanian authorities would feel badly for our victim but wonder quite what makes it their problem. I have been to places that are nice, but one would not dream of being there without authorization. Why should the U. S. be any different? Given that the horrible places on this planet are largely very nice geographically, but are simply awful by dint of their population/culture, why on earth would we want to import said culture? One thing we tend to miss is that the people who go against repressive regimes are all too often no better than the oppressors when all is said and done. Thus, if I guess correctly as to what you're railing against, there is no lack of empathy for people who overlook the rules regarding immigration; the hope is that they'll be healthy and happy somewhere else.

I think those ideas sound reasonable. Of course, you’d be excoriated for failing to militarize the border. Wendy P.

I agree with this. I get three days worth of texts before a doctor's appointment. Surely, we could input a text system to notify three days before visa expiration.

Elon Musk offers to pay $100 to Wisconsin voters who sign a petition against ‘activist judges’ Every single time the Republicans accuse the Dems of doing something dirty it's because they're actually doing it themselves. It's a principle that never ever fails.

Damn the shit available these days crosses the line. It used to be we'd need to fetch mushrooms out of cow patties to get to your side of reality. Anyway it's oars, rudders, and sextants.

He's just stoned, as usual.

Perhaps you should remove your own felons, rapists and pedos first. Matthew said it best: "You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye."

True dat.

Hi Rich, Re: I break a few of my own rules in debate Based upon your posts here, you have not a clue as to what a debate is. Jerry Baumchen

Glad you can make sense of his posts, because no joke I can’t. Every post makes me think he’s mastered the art of the weave but with big words.

Bigun is significantly to the right of me (but, I suspect, getting less so). However, he is not a knee-jerk MAGA warrior like some who post here, and his positions are always well thought out even if I disagree with them.

Take a look at VoteVets.

I think you may have missed the sarcasm there.

This is what I find surprising about the American right, that they are surprised by something that was spelled out in glowing neon letters during the campaign. Trump during the campaign: Says repeatedly he will do something outrageous when in power. Republicans: You libs should stop being so hyperbolic, you’re not supposed to take him literally! Trump in office: Does exact outrageous thing he said he would do. Republicans: If only someone could have warned us this was going to happen!

You want me to stand up while you pursue emigration?

Unfortunately I think it’s too late for the US and you won’t recover from this. Both sides of the isle and the judiciary dropped the ball many years ago. Other than Bernie and AOC (possibly Waltz), there are no visible leaders actively promoting a viable alternative and drawing attention to the state of things and offering to fight. So the constitution is a meaningless pierce of paper now. I hope I’m proven wrong

No worries then. Jan 22 2020: "We have it totally under control. It's one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It's going to be just fine." Jan 24: "China has been working very hard to contain the Coronavirus. The United States greatly appreciates their efforts and transparency. It will all work out well. In particular, on behalf of the American People, I want to thank President Xi!” Feb 2: "We pretty much shut it down coming in from China.” Feb 10: "I think the virus is going to be—it’s going to be fine.” Feb 10: "Looks like by April, you know in theory when it gets a little warmer, it miraculously goes away.” Feb 24: "The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA… the Stock Market starting to look very good to me!” Feb 25: "I think that's a problem that’s going to go away… They have studied it.” Feb. 26: “The 15 (cases in the US) within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero.” Feb 27: "It's going to disappear. One day — it's like a miracle — it will disappear." Mar 5: "The United States… has, as of now, only 129 cases… and 11 deaths. We are working very hard to keep these numbers as low as possible!” Mar 6: “I think we’re doing a really good job in this country at keeping it down… a tremendous job at keeping it down.” Mar 7: “You have to be calm. It’ll go away.” Mar 7: "It goes away….It’s going away. We want it to go away with very, very few deaths. Mar 11: "for the vast majority of Americans, the risk is very, very low" And that turned out fine.
