[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Boogie, you seem sold on negative stereotypes. Cuba being a decent place does not mean the end of the world, nor that the sky is falling. Castro turned to the US first for support.
The history is interesting..

I find it interesting that Cuba was also the first country to send doctors abroad to help with the COVID19 response.

And because someone reminded me of one of my favoritist philosophers ever, Plutarch -

An imbalance between rich and poor is the oldest and most fatal ailment of all republics.

@ Hammer, Depends where,large populated city,probably.
Easy to become cynical where you see some of the shit they see.

I can tell you some of the pos drunk drivers that kill people are brought into the ER,and theres an order for blood and urine,a percentage of the time,the catheter doesn't get any petroleum jelly when you go in to get the urine.So I guess there's even good , and bad in a caring facility.We are all human,and respond accordingly.

well in the absence of information -

like their complete medical records -

it's easier to write them off as a 'nutcase'


in other words, an "other", not one of us


OK i admit, Dahmer was not normal

i think a lot of the mass shooters are normal.

we just don't know what their 'buttons' were.

(and of course there's the obvious - they had very little
to lose)


because of the pace of shootings before the pandemic, in the period of time from the Las Vegas shooting to Parkland to the C&W bar in Santa Barbara, i expect there will be more & bigger.

but i'm glad for the "time out" because it keeps the gun grabbers from moving their plans to the front burner.

I get it.

Worse yet, it seems allot of the spring loaded decide to be cops.

There's allot of angry people out there who would be better off without guns.

Testing my memory here,H.S. world history was a minute ago,but was it Patton who wept when he found their mass graves,and sent for photographers to memorialize what wasn't reported.

Growing up it was so different how Leo interacted with us. We knew the names of the cops that patrolled our neighborhood. If we got caught with Alcohol(not driving) or with weed they just made us poor it out, weed we had to grind it into the pavement. We never got taken in. The training they got was more humanized. Today all that training is gone. Its shoot 1st ask later if not dead for all black folks.. Those are the only rules. No one walks if its an arrestable offense. Our civil rights are violated in all interactions. Most just don't know it. They have GOD complex today.

DUI is a social issue. It doesn't matter what substance you used that made you incapable of driving. People need to stop thinking I'm OK to drive, its only a beer. Most people know the penalties but they still do it.

Agreed,I received alot of breaks from leo when I was growing up.Poured out many a beer and poured out my share of weed along the road side. I think alot of cops nowadays are trying to get back to having the trust of the community.Here in R.I. some of the Local P.D. in certain citys are going against the governors orders and outright refusing to enforce the wearing a mask order.They are saying these are the people of their community that they deal with daily,and if the governor wants to call in the State Police to enforce it,to go for it.
While prisoners are being released for serious crimes,some cops aren't willing to arrest people over (social issues)

If you want to provide sources on Cuba I will read them when I get time. All I said is Bernie probably would have gotten more support if he wasn't for banning guns which he said he will do (assault weapons). I'm voting for Trump, that wouldn't change my vote because I believe health care for all will take effect in the next 10-20 years anyways but that's still my opinion.

To all the Trump haters...

Donald Trump is 10 x the man you are.Make that 20...


Donald Trump has acomplished more in his life than a whole generation of your family has in 30 lifetimes.


I was happy to hear Fema is being deployed to Michigan they need it.
My friend who lost her house was happy to hear it as well.
She's as liberal as they come.
She called me today crying her eyes out.It breaks my heart to hear her suffering.
She's been calling me crying for 3 straight days.
Today she say's this time is different
Says her tears are of relief
I ask why.She tells me she watched the President whom she hates today at Ford.
Said when he brought up Midland she broke down.Then heard that fema will be there tomorrow.
Boke down again said she needed to call me to tell me she's voting Trump in Nov.Because she knew that in her darkest hour a giant orange light would be her beacon and guide her back homethe giant orange light bit cracked us both up.It was good to hear.But through the laughter I could see she was earnest and sincere.Said she didn't know how to tell her peers that Trump was the reason for her inspiration
That's what Trump does he inspires people.
Hell of alot more than any one of you haters.
Thnx to those I disagree with offering your well wishes to her through rec.
You're excluded from my ire.
