Just got into a heated discussion about Native American rights. Is it true that they don't pay taxes, get free education in state universities, make their own laws (they can operate casinos when average people are regulated) on the land they live on (reservations)? And if that's the case, is that really fair to the rest of us? Isn't there some kind of discrimination going on here? My friend says the fact that the Seminole tribe just bought the Hard Rock Cafe business for a billion dollars shows that something is wrong. Here are tribal leaders amassing tons of money to make more money while they keep their people in poverty so they can hold up the poor downtrodden Native American and try to make everybody feel sorry for them. He says it's like a third world dictatorship. I had to concede that something isn't right. What do you think?

I got one that read, "You are politically independent." I taped it to my notebook because it was so . . . different from any other one I'd read. That was about seven years ago.

This year, I re-registered, changing my political party from Democrat to Independent. Spooky or self-fulfilling prophecy?

I have many friends who hate cigarettes but still buy cocaine or even smoke marijana. They will insult those who smoke cigs while doing far worse drugs. I know people who drink coffee at sporting events because they don't want to seem like idiots because only " idiots" drink beer at sporting events(WTF) New york is banning transfat....In Ohio you can't smoke anywhere........What's with the health fascist?

Where are these people at when kids are starving in Africa or wars are fought anywhere??? I guess making plans to keep america safe by........making it smoke free...but certainly not coca free.......Hypocritical world!!!!!

I used to be a member of PETA...but now I see no point in PETA...because there are more important issues like "global warming" or AIDS, etc. So what's the point of PETA spending all their money on websites and campigns brainwashing people like me, that wearing wool is bad? I did a little research...and my opinion is they are mainly proganda and maybe extremeists (they had a campaign on stopping fishing as a sport!)

Why is it so hard for some people to grasp the concept that words hurt? Why can't people just shut up and keep their thoughts to themselves?

I doubt this will ever happen. But if one country were to form into a huge country with 3 other countries , what would those countries be?

Russia/Germany/China?

USA/Canada/Britain?

Those are just examples. What do you think? This doesn't have to do with anything , It's just a bit of fun.

I remeber when i was working in this store and my manager (who was a gay man) said that he thinks women are nasty because they get the monthly visitor and that they always wine and complain. And he said that he is glad that he is gay. Are all homosexuals feel that way against heteos? male or female?

"Give a person enough rope and they'll hang themselves". A saying my Mom says my grandmother used re deceitful people. Is that what it's about? Does it mean they eventually will get caught and regret it? Seems like a funny saying. Any ideas re it's origin? I asked this quest. late last night when all the 'jokesters' were on. I 'll try again.
