Re: 2016 Election
They know how to post selfies of themselves with guns, dead wildlife etc. That's about it. No, this is why other countries, places like Thailand and Turkey, have military coups, because sometimes civil government is not well intentioned. God forbid we may reach that stage in the United States. God help those who serve in the military in those circumstances.

Re: 2016 Election
You seem to miss the point people are making. Your Mexican partner saying that isn't being patronising. De Koops 'verbal exchanges' aren't patronising. You and De Koop, as a non Mexicans stating 'Mexicans can be very good and loyal workers.' is being very patronising but if you can't see the difference then nothing anyone says will make any difference.
The problem here is that mentioning a particular ethnicity labels one as being patronizing. It's NOT ! period.
What's bad about this is PC. "Kontrol" It's created an unhealthy and neurotic environment among some whites and I think many others including myself are sick of it.

I think those who talk about coups dishonor the US military. Since the days of Washington's revolutionary army loyalty to the Commander-in-Chief ie the President has always been a sacred commitment.

They may have had some bumps along the road but they got rid of their nasty king, his court and the aristocracy which was a good start.

The Chinese are very smart, place great value on education and are hardworking and enterprising. There how about that?

So there's never a danger of an illegal order, that people may feel duty bound to disobey?

Re: 2016 Election
Just think back awhile when many white people thought just like you do today. When it was considered acceptable to refer to non whites in a way that even you wouldn't use today. You may feel sick of PC kontrol, just think how sick of it the people that have to listen too you are.
I was hoping these were decent people who were simply unaware. Based on the passion of their arguments and their obvious need to continue to speak of minorities in outdated and unfriendly ways, I have come to the conclusion that I was wrong. They are not unaware, they know exactly what they're doing, and they like it.
