Jesus, Mexico is worse than Korea and there isn't even a war going on.

Is it possible that it is obesity related?

I don't think tortillas are kidnapping and shooting people.

Anyone who has seen the picture of the little boy that washed up on the beach in Turkey and is not moved to tears has no heart. It really brings the human calamity that is taking place into focus. These people deserve whatever help we are able to give them.

Flour tortillas are loaded with gluten.

They may need to mandate a corn tortilla only policy there to get things under control.

It's not fatal, just makes your dick fly off.

They should float their butts across the sea and start moving in with all these dumbed down morons who keep voting for Clintons and Bushes and McBomneys. Too bad those ricketty ships overloaded with passengers cannot possibly cross the Atlantic...

Is that what you tell yourself to insulate yourself from any feeling towards the matter, or is your heart so cold that you just dont feel anything?

Some of us are just rational enough to understand that if you don't want kids dying in he same manner the world over, you can't allow the culture which causes it to spread to the civilized parts of the world.

Do remember that while someone like yourself far removed from the ongoing tragedy gets to analyze the problem at a macro level, men in Turkey and elsewhere are carrying dead toddlers from the beach. I'd imagine the geopolitics goes out the window for those men. It would be interesting to see how someone like yourself would react to seeing it in person.

You have to be able to separate yourself from the tragedy and emotions otherwise you'll never be able to see the solution you need to do to stop the tragedies from happening.

That's what I don't understand. The American Revolution was started by a handful of wealthy men who hated British taxes. We owe America to the 1%. And yet today we villify them for doing largely the same thing.


Who do you think actually did the fighting? Millionaire Militias?

Maybe Obozo should have not pulled troops from Iraq so ISIS can fill the vacuum. The "red line?" That was crossed over a year ago and look what this far-left asshole of a President is doing. Playing golf, renaming a mountain and going on a TV show. I bet he takes his selfie stick.

Bottom line, this country is what makes the world go round. And this President lacks balls on the global stage and things are going to hell in a hand basket right quick. 2016 couldn't come quick enough and God willing the sheep don't vote with their head up their ass this time around. Just look at this Iran BS? OMFG!

That would be true, if it wasn't utterly false.

Thats all well and good, but I suspect many who claim to rise above such a petty emotion like empathy also tend to blame the victims in this situation.

Bad stuff happens every day when you engage in risky activities when you could be otherwise safe, feel sorry for the kid all you want, it's a sad state of events.

Could otherwise be safe? Perhaps you haven't been paying attention to what's been going on in the region.

Funny that. There was no refugee problem before we invaded Iraq, other than the refugees created by the Israelis driving out Palestinians.

Who's been spreading their culture where? Isn't this largely a product of Neocon "creative destruction"?

Outside of maybe some ER docs or African aid workers, I'd wager I've seen more dead kids than most here. Lest you forget that in both Iraq and Afghanistan we were given yellow and pink "price lists" to satisfy diyya.

Please. The population of Mexico is 122M. The population of Iraq is 33M.

The homicide rate per capita of Mexico is roughly half that of Iraq.

Sure and Iraq sits right on our border :hmm:

Trump can try to build a big wall.

HA HA HA HA
