LOL founding fathers creating a bill of rights while owning n!ggers outright. Founding father worship is the funniest thing about libertarians.truth bombs
It's hilarious seeing "Libertarians" worship local government in the same sentence that they scorn federal government. When the has a civilization with small federal government and powerful local government ever been successful? Local government is 100x more incompetent and corrupt than the federal government.
It's also massive revisionist history when people say stuff like, "The founding fathers were all anti-big government and designed the cons ution to give the states all the powers!" The reason we have the cons ution is because the Articles of Confederation were a massive abortion which left the country on the verge of insolvency that the Anti-Federalists eventually caved and signed the Federalists' Cons ution (Federalists like Alexander Hamilton, George Washington, James Madison, John Adams, and John Han ). I feel pretty stupid regurgitating basic American history, but "libertarians" who say off the wall stuff like "The founding fathers designed the cons ution to take power away from the federal government!" must have slept through history class growing up.
Is it?
Serious question. If you were a slave, and I were a master...
Would you want to be owned by an abusive master, or a master that believed in rights and treated you well.
Can you say that any of the founding father abused their slaves? What if I bough as many slaves as I could to protect them from others brutality. Does that make me an evil slave owner?
Yeah that's what a good governmemt would do unlike the bad one that would try to reduce the the infected mosquito population that would create infected offsprings and increase by ten-fold next summer. That's waaaaaay more than the birds and are the birds biting people?
Well see. I'm gonna ask her if the cases stabilized or not in a few weeks.
Obama is the drone president.
April thru Sept. is considered mosquito season in Texas so I'm pretty sure sure the spraying is guaranteed to "work" in a few weeks.
It's more than just aerial spraying which will happen tonight. There will be an active ground search for hibernation areas as well. I know you feel so fond of these innocent little mosquitoes but I place innocent human beings waaaaaay waaaaay ahead of them.
We will just have to agree to disagree. You rather the government just accept WNV as common cold and do nothing about it while I believe that they should take an active approach in curbing the epidemic.
I don't give a about mosquitoes. You're missing the point, mosquitoes are here to stay and wnv is here to stay. So the govt spraying might knock back the population for now and you'll say hooray!
Or maybe the spraying takes it's toll on fish & insects that feed on mosquito larvae so that next year the mosquito population is greater and wnv is even more of a problem in that area.
Either way WNV is here to stay.
I read this article and the quote made me laugh...
Now that's a definitive statementDallas Arborteum makes last-minute preps to protect fish
http://www.wfaa.com/news/health/Dall...166466236.html
The state, which hired the contractor for the EPA-approved spraying, said the pesticide, named Duet, "should not pose a risk for a healthy fish pond under sound environmental conditions."
^ Not necessarily. In the case of WNV, mosquitoes are the local delivery method. The virus itself is transported and incubated by birds. Mosquitoes have a lifespan of about 100 days, and are not born with the virus, thus they're a rapidly changing population.
Insecticides help reduce the mosquito population to address the issue of a rapidly growing distribution, but there's also other controls taking place at the same time, like monitoring of wild birds and testing of dead birds.
There's been WNV epidemics before (Like 1999 in New York), and they've all more or less been dealt with successfully.
Banning DDT was a disaster
Actually vertical transmission has been demonstrated.
What are you calling succesfull. WNV arrived in NY in '99 and has marched across the US ever since. New York still has cases of WNV despite annual spraying and measures such as levying fines against people with bird baths.
You know Creepn used what's happening in Dallas as an example of good govt. The mayor says he can't have any more deaths on his conscience but where was his conscience over the past few years when they could have spent a little more money on effective mosquito control and avoided the epidemic altogether. It's not like they didn't know WNV was a public health risk.
I stand corrected. Didn't see those studies, thanks.
I call successful that it's not considered epidemic. New York has had a grand total of 4 cases this year so far. That's successful.
I don't know the details about Dallas, so I'll take your word for it. I think it's interesting that states like New Mexico has had just 1 case this year, where Texas is obviously in the middle of an epidemic.
I'd say making someone pick cotton for 15 hours a day without compensation is definitely abuse. This is an all time Wild Cobra classic.

So I take it that you would prefer the daily whipping.

The slave market probably saved their lives. Many of the slaves sold were captured enemies that would have otherwise been killed if there was no slave market.
Blacks were selling blacks.
WC with epic bads
Why?
Not PC?
Are you saying I'm wrong, or is it that you can't handle the truth?
What would the warlords have done to them if there wasn't a marker for them? Probably kill them, right?
Not kidnap them
No it isn't. I'm only looking at the past with an unbiased eye. You should try not to be so prejudiced.
