I first posted this on the Money Board. I’m wondering what the Poli Board thinks.

I get that for some people, their convictions are more important than money.

I’m coming from a belief that the bottom line of a for profit business is to earn money.

Why alienate a segment of the population and maybe a large segment?

What would i do? Keep my politics and my business separate.

This is not a troll. I don’t fully understand the business side of this.

I’m posting this here because I’m more curious about the business side of this than the political side.

Now do Mike Johnson.

North America is a continent. The region includes the Bahamas, Bermuda, Canada, the Caribbean, Central America, Mexico and the United States, among other small islands.

Canada shouldn’t care about the name change since it’s so far away. The waters are bordered by Mexico, the US and Cuba. I say drop Mexico from the name and call it the Gulf of the Americas. Maybe Gulf of North America is too long. Obviously we shouldn’t call it the Gulf of the United States.

I’m thinking you have anger issues in the rest of your life.

You posted scant information to attempt to show we know a lot about school shooters.

I’ll just take the two Columbine shooters using your criteria.

Both white
Both male
Eric Harris had never been seen for mental health treatment. He had a budding Narcissistic Personality Disorder but kids under 18 don’t get those diagnoses because their personalities are fully formed.


Millions of youth are helped by psychotropic meds when properly prescribed and managed.

Neither Kliebold or Harris had early childhood trauma. All evaluations of the parents at the time and for years since have shown them to be excellent parents to these two killers and their other children.

It was a false claim that these two were bullied. They both had been engaged in school activities.

Harris was the leader who wouldn’t have acted alone. He would never be the suicidal type. Klebold was depressed and would have never done this alone. He was a follower.

I’m
not even going to address your other generalizations. My point is the Columbine shooters couldn’t have been any more different from each other. you use so many generalizations that if we suspected all youth in this country who met any 4 of your so called criteria we would have labeled the vast majority of the white male population.

She’s raised $47M in 7 hours so i guess you can say her fund raising is moving too fast.

I am making one assumption. The classroom is a learning environment where we would encourage the asking of questions. I get not just any question should be allowed but certainly any question about the subject matter or anything a teacher has on the wall.

When a child asks a question about the meaning of any of the commandments are we sure we want any and every teacher to provide their answer?

I love that keyboard riff on Heartbreak Beat.

Richard Butler is one of those few British singers who doesn’t lose his British accent when he sings.

I hope you had the balls to stick it to the hospital

The first time we voted me and 7 other jurors voted to find the hospital negligent. We needed one more vote.

We talked for 10 minutes, nothing substantive was said except the minister in the room said he was changing his vote from guilty to not guilty.

We took a second vote and the next vote was 1-11 with me being the only one who thought the hospital was guilty.

I asked what just happened to change the mind of 6 other jurors. Nobody said a word. So, I only assume everybody changed their vote when the minster said he was changing his vote. That and maybe everyone just wanted to go home. After all, we had been deliberating for a full 25 minutes.

Someone asked me if i wanted to change my vote to make it unanimous. I said hell no.

As for my comments, I’m saying that Trumps lawyers are saying that he didn’t make an alleged payment to tamper with the election. That’s what i mean when i say “political reasons”.

The point is there is no trial unless alleged campaign finance laws are being violated. So, I would have a hint of politics in the court room.

Also, I was laser focused when the attorneys and witnesses were talking. During side bars I didn’t stare down the defendant or the people in the gallery but i can’t say i never looked at either.

Besides, the defendant (a nurse for the hospital) was a basket case once she got on the witness stand.
