Posted in: Japan says it may evacuate its citizens from Iran as soon as Thursday See in context
Why shouldn’t Iran possess nuclear weapons when so many countries, including the US, Israel and even the rogue terrorist country like North Korea have them? Well.....why shouldn't an angry, 92-year-old drunk guy stumbling out of a bar at 1 a.m. angry at the world have a driver's license? After all, ambulance drivers have driver's licenses.

Lots and lots and lots of unthinking anti-Semites on here today. Israel wants to live in their own country in peace. The Islamic countries want to kill all Jews. Many of the leaders of these countries say that out loud. It is really that simple and basic.

Posted in: San Francisco's new mayor starting to unite fractured city See in context
S.F. has to be the most disgusting place in America. I lived near there for 30 years. Many people say that Gavin Newsom was the one who destroyed S.F. (he has now bankrupted California), but I blame the S.F. residents themselves. They keep voting over and over and over again for the same leftist policies that have destroyed many of America's cities. There are fentanyl problems, violent homeless problems, rampant crime, fleeing businesses, lack of police funding and the smug feeling that the city is "progressive," even when progressive means nothing more than encouraging the crime, drugs and homelessness. Not to mention the mountains of human excrement that you'll see in the city. The residents should open their eyes and some point and admit their mistakes.

Multimillionaire Bernie isn't fighting apathy, he fighting 80 years of being on the wrong side of history. As Marx said, "The purpose of socialism is communism." How can somebody be wrong for decade after decade after decade, have seen communism fail everywhere it is tried, and still be a socialist/communist? All of this when he is a multimillionaire who has never had a job outside of being in congress! He sure likes to spend other people's money!

To most here DEI equals hiring a minority when it really means giving all an equal opportunity, a fair shake and hiring the best PERSON for the job, regardless of race, gender, etc.
Wow, you think DEI means giving all an equal opportunity? Really? You can't believe that. That is like saying the sun is made up of ice cubes. Better to keep quiet and have people think you are stup'd than opening your mouth and proving it.

Sounds logical. Chase the high spenders out...you know, the ones who spend the most for Japan's tax coffers, the ones who are statistically the least likely to commit crimes, do dine and dashes, spray paint on shrines and temples etc, etc. Keep the backpackers and the low-rent types and push out the ones who cause the fewest problems. This is such a bad idea, it was probably thought of by some California politician.

What does "Life in prison" mean in Japan? In America, it more or less means living in prison for a few years until your first parole hearing when you can maybe go free. I hope Japanese courts aren't as mushy-headed as American courts.
