He got arrested for that!?!?!? That's it? When I heard, I thought it was going to be way way way way worse.

Hijacking dont count until G00ber chimes in. Question was regarding respect or perhaps lack thereof iwth kids having all this fancy equipment... not actually hockey. *sigh*

Serious question, since ice hockey helmets have evolved into these massive things that protect players at a level never seen before over the last 20 years, there has been a serious decrease in the amount of respect that hockey players have for their fellow players well being... can the same be...

I like to think that America is better than it was 50 years ago and I do hope it is... I would never judge a grown adult from kneeling for the national anthem because they have that right according to the constitution. I am disappointed when I see it but since we are going with a biblical theme...

Nope. Would not kneel. But I also wouldn't give a crap if someone on the opposition did. Not my team, not my business.

Yup! Wouldn't survive the first day of basic training... hopefully he will never be in a classroom again.

TheBigSum, first and foremost, congratulations on your decision! Teaching is an extremely rewarding profession though it may be years before you start to see the fruits of your time and sweat. I have been a high school teacher and coach for the past 15 years and nothing in the world would make...

And that is seemingly a huge problem. People don't ask questions or want to hear all the answers/point of view. The narrow scope of thinking in today's society is pathetic but easily controllable. If people truly informed themselves of matters far and wide, it would be a lot more difficult to...

OBK: Thank you!! I appreciate your post as it clearly defines what the militia means in the US. :)

Mark: I thought it was strange myself, I had never heard such a thing until a local police presentation to a few classes in the cafeteria earlier last year. I guess the meth gets you more hooked on the weed?

I don't believe it would be kosher. That was an interesting article on wedding renewals. Just when I thought I'd seen it all.

That is vile and disgusting behaviour to ridicule someone for their beliefs and even more so when those beliefs are supported in your constitution. I want to learn and understand all the arguments so I will be able to form a rational and educated thought on the 2nd Amendment and further so I...

I said nothing of the sort. I could care less what America does with their laws. Not my country. I came here to better understand the thinking behind keeping the 2nd Amendment not protest as some anti-gun nut. I appreciate you explaining the militia part being unorganized however there was no...

Meth exists here and it mostly sprayed onto marijuana but it is not a problem locally *yet*. The big one that is killing many Torontoians is fake Fentanyl patches which come into Canada from illegal Chinese chemistry factories through the port of Vancouver. No one can tell the difference until...
