  • Oh my bad, I didn't realize that I don't pay taxes now.

    You're a student. Your taxes are minimal.

    At this point in your life, you don't want someone to draw up a balance sheet for you.

  • Do you guys no how taxes work? How do you think I pay none? Lol

    Who wants to make a bet that I pay taxes? Come on, who is interested? Only big money bets.

  • Sales tax?

    I mean, are you fucking kidding right now? Do you know what your student loan debt is doing for your taxable income?

  • I worked the majority of the year last year. I lost money through taxes there... I got my tax returns about a week ago. around $3400

    I don't have much student loan debt at all. Like I have said before, I am fortunate enough that my dad is really good with money and saved up for me. I had/have a college fund.

  • Do you guys no how taxes work? How do you think I pay none? Lol

    I would bet that you have NO idea what the word KNOW means

    Lol, oops. Yep, typo. Now we'll have to see Cal freaking out about it...

  • I'm confused, didn't these robbers point their guns at the citizen? If so, the robbers threatened the man's life. It's too bad the robbers decided to pursue a criminal career because criminals tend do end up dead. Why is this even controversial? Os

    Good question. I think it has to do with political expediency at any cost. And, ulterior motives towards

    complete gun bans - libs tend to hate what doesn't apply to them/things they can't relate to. Bickering over words/definitions,

    and arguing straw men is just smokescreen.

  • Yes, liberals are the cause of all the bad in the world....

    I did find this comment particularly hilarious though --- "libs tend to hate what doesn't apply to them/things they can't relate to" lol. Yeah Cal, that is totally only a liberal thing, hahaha. You also still seem to think a complete gun ban is a feasible thing, huh? That is you boogey man I guess. You get news from places that tell you it is going to happen and it scares you into listening to them. Brilliant.

    Also, if you actually read the article, it said the two robbers did pull their guns on the citizen when he confronted them.

    I wish you wouldn't jump to labels when explaining things, though. 😛

    Seriously, this statement "libs tend to hate what doesn't apply to them/things they can't relate to" would ring true if you replaced "libs" with "extremists". Many extremist conservatives tend to hate gays, blacks, Jews, Muslims, etc because they don't understand them, and even worse, they have an 'understanding' that is filtered through media sources that wish to promote such hate. Similarly, extremist liberals tend to hate the death penalty, guns, creationism and the concept of religion in general, and even worse, they have an 'understanding' that is filtered through media sources that wish to promote such hate. The worst of all, is once you hate something, you close off any possibility for understanding it. We'll all be better off if we shed the labels we use for ourselves and others and start thinking for ourselves.

    I applaud the effort but some folks are too invested in their camp. It makes it easier for them because they don't have to think. Just get mad and buy some more of whatever it is the news source is trying to sell.

  • the reason I don't put a lot of stock in the conservative or liberal labels: is because I don't adhere truly to either one and I am always right. 🙂

    I admit this is true. Liberals are fascist extremists....

    Okay, but seriously, I was just referring to the anti-gun crowd, the old anti-SUV crowd. The anti-hunting crowd.

    The anti-meat eating crowd. I don't really know the % of those who are extremist, vs just regular folks who are

    honestly liberal on some issues for reasons they have.

    Using labels is a quicker way of saying something, when time contraints cause me to be not as accurate.

    I admit it. I'll work on it. Hafta go split a few tons of wild cherry tree sections....

  • I don't think I have ever heard you specify the "type" of liberal in your rants. Just that liberals, in general, are bad in some way and anyone that disagrees with you about anything is in fact a liberal. If you were truly meaning to say the things you said in your previous post, I think we would have seen it at some point by now.

    I also don't adhere to either side. Neither side can be right all the time

  • My right side is always right. My left side is never right.

    A lot like magnetism. Opposite poles attract, matching poles

    repel.

    Some things are just natural law. @@

    If you are going off of opposites attract and likes repel, then that isn't helping your point.

    Right (political) and "right" (being correct) are like words and would repel

    Left (political) and "right" (being correct) are opposite words and would attract

    This, based on your logic, would make the left side attracted to being correct, and the right side repelling being correct

    just saying

    or the whole "poles" thing is absolutely Retarded when you bring it up...

  • "He's not no thug or nothing like that...he's a good boy" - well...I kinda disagree. Good boys don't commit armed robbery.

    That being said, they surely didn't deserve to die for their crimes.

    Also, I love the completely unbiased write up in "USConcealedCarry.com" - I wonder which side of the argument they're coming down on!

    I've been thinking about this a bit and I'm starting to change my mind a little. The guys pulled their guns on someone who asked them to stop - knowing full well that he might be carrying a weapon. He absolutely has the right to defend himself with the necessary force - in this case, his own gun.

    On the other hand, the fact that the bystander managed to shoot both of them before either fired a retaliatory reply would seem to indicate that they didn't have the inclination to actually kill anyone - they just wanted to use the guns to threaten and intimidate anyone standing in their way, not to cause any physical harm. But that's just guesswork, obviously.

  • Deserve to die or not, it's at least a risk you should understand you are taking on when you decide to break the law.

    Indeed. Don't half assed threaten another person's life with no real intent. It is a good way to end up bleeding to death next to some Slim Jims and Funyuns.
