Why do there seem to be no arrests?

Will the left wing dismiss the right-wing rioters with the same pat on the head that they dismissed their own rioters? So after watching a mob take control of the Capital Building to interfere with the duly constituted democratic transfer of power, your primary concern is what the left felt about t...

Your reaction to rioters storming the US Capitol, during a session of Congress, while it is performing the electoral count of the next president, is "What about BLM?".

So, while other countries were investing in themselves, Haiti was paying off the people who had enslaved them. That doesn't sound like a very successful revolution to me. If you still have to pay people who enslaved you, did you really win the war? Most revolutions are not very successful. The Unit...

There are 47 towns named Lebanon in the US, although a couple are ghost towns. I've been to one -- it's about 45 miles east of my parents in laws home in Oregon. Why Lebanon?

I lived in both Vancouver, BC, and Bellingham for the nine years I was in school at UBC, so I perk up every time someone mentions the Pacific NW. It has one of the best climates on Earth, as far as I'm concerned. Part of my heart will always be...

You have the ability to read these threads just as easily as you read and located dantana's post with what you believe are grammatical and spelling errors and then decided to make a new topic thread about it mirroring your previous thread about grammar and spelling. What I believe are grammatical a...

I'm not even talking about someone else's so-called "filthy language." I'm complaining about the general policy of changing words or acronyms to be what any given board administrator thinks they should be. Readability = user-friendliness. Someone else changing what is actually said with the excuse ...
