Andy9o8 0 #3 April 17, 2013 I like blueberries in my muffins, but prefer strawberries in my Pop Tarts. Did you know that technically both bananas and watermelons berries? It's true. Cherries, however, are not berries, though I like them in Pop Tarts, too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do not know what it's like in other parts of the country,but where I am, very,very,very few people feel the need for more gun legislation,but would rather see better enforcement of the present laws. The very,very,very few who are in favor of more gun control do however make the most noise it seems,and will use insults against anyone who disagrees with their views,and will also twist words, and use them out of context as well.

toolbox 0 #14 April 17, 2013 >Saying this does not make it true. you use a liberal minded news source like CNN as an example of objective reportingThats like saying fox news will give objective reporting embracing both conservative and liberal viewsJust because the news reports it,doesn't mean it's completely true. It's like showing photo's of Trayvon Martin when he was 10 years old and insinuating that he was just a cute little skinny black child and model student that was shot by a big bad evil racist,when in fact Trayvon was 6'2" and 215 pounds with a history of criminal behavior,and Zimmerman is not what I would call a big bad racist. Just one example of twisted facts spewed forth from the media. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

toolbox 0 #18 April 17, 2013 The only polls I believe are polls run by big business trying to find ways to make more money off of the masses. Like fast food consumer polls,or polls from producers of soft drinks,ect... When it comes to making money you need the truth about what will sell. Otherwise it might just be propoganda to get more sheep to follow the rest of the herd and drink some crappy koolaid. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
