| http://www.animalfarmfoundation.org/pages/Multimedia-Infographics I'm on neither side here. I have mixed feelings. But that link is BS. It basically tries to say only 1% of dog's genes differ between breeds so the breed means nothing when it comes to looks and even temperament. <2% is what separ... |

| I'm with Andyt. Sure some cops can't shoot for shit either. But at least they are required to pass accuracy training and spend time in a range for target practice every so often. Most people I know who own guns couldn't hit a bus with a pistol, let alone a moving human target. You need to look at th... |

| I'm in favour of it. The Mincome experiment seemed promising 40 or so years ago. It's no different than welfare or even employment income really. Just sets a basic living wage for everyone as a standard, one stop program. Honestly, if everyone here looked at themselves and excluded people who's pare... |

| Oh no... someone else who, when the work cell phone rings on a Sunday night during The Walking Dead, it gets picked up and the ringer gets shut off? You nailed it. If I'm paid to be on-call fine. But I avoid those jobs like the plague. This whole concept that we're always on the company's dime is r... |

| I don't think this article says crap about the real issue. People aren't too lazy to wash a bowl. The real issue is in general, families don't sit down to eat nearly as much as we once did. Cereal requires you to sit and eat. You can't take it in the car and go. Life keeps getting faster paced. We h... |

| I'm more than for a total rewrite of our Constitution in the vein of what occurred in Japan and Germany after WW2. We need to modernize our laws to fit the age. BUT... The problem is, our current spineless, useless, corrupt, brainless wave of politicians is what got us into this mess in the first pl... |

Thank you Republicans. Or should I say, business shills.
Cause you know, anything that benefits big business, benefits us all. Also, Brondo's got what crops crave - electrolytes! |

Seems fair. Nothing to see here.
Now go watch your local sporting team and drink a beer. Or if you're so inclined, spend your free time debating your favorite wedge issue. Gay marriage? Abortion? Anything will do! |

| Dr Caleb, I don't disagree with a single thing you wrote there. And you're likely right. That girl was likely depressed and her mom diagnosed her like a good antivaxxer would. But to discard WiFi as "impossible to cause harm" isn't scientifically backed. It's improbable. But when XRAYS wer... |
