I would state categorically that your assertion there has no fundamental support. There is no way for you to know ANY of those things.Phatscotty wrote:You can tell she is crying. That means at least she did not blow her parents off, tell them to shut up, or slam the door in the parents face, call her parents bitches....at least we know that.
That doesn't in any way counter my point. Is this where you claim that your video wasn't meant as a counter, or is this where you claim that you disagree with the video you posted? It's confusing, because you do both so often.Phatscotty wrote:

Instead you treat alcohol like it's heroin and thus eventually lead to binge drinking and a generally unhealthy attitude towards alcohol, i.e. viewing it as a means to get fucked up rather than something that can be enjoyed for it's own sake and in moderation.
A parent should NEVER (for any reason at all) intentionally cause that level of public personal embarrassment to their children. That is not something that is done out of love. Yes, I understand the argument that embarrassment can cause a change in behavior, and I recognize that there are instances when this happens. And yet, the far more likely result of this in a child is bitterness, hatred, hiding of activities even more, and outright rebellion. It is not a successful parenting technique.Phatscotty wrote:We just disagree.

Curious though, can you tell anything from what you see in the picture? for example, you can tell she is crying right? maybe you notice it seems as if the parents had already warned this girl about abusing the social media like that? Can you tell she is underage? Can you tell she probably will not get kicked off a sports team in the future because her parents are teaching her a valuable lesson? can you tell she is being disciplined? Can you tell that nobody is physically forcing her to stand there and hold the picture? What is it you think makes this an example of shitty parenting?
That is probably the intent, sure. Unfortunately, it is not an effective method for doing so.Phatscotty wrote:Do you think the photo is an example of the parents trying to teach their daughter that very exact lesson you point out?Haggis_McMutton wrote:If the US had a normal drinking culture, then posting pictures with liquor would be about as exciting as posting pictures with your breakfast plate.

It's impossible to say for sure.Based solely on the picture I'm leaning to think their stance is the ridiculous "DON'T TOUCH ALCOHOL TILL YOU'RE 21".Phatscotty wrote: Do you think the photo is an example of the parents trying to teach their daughter that very exact lesson you point out?
Gotta love the right wing's attempts to sabotage American foreign policy. Even though this message has been disproven, they will keep sending it out.Phatscotty wrote:

Aligning the US with the Muslim Brotherhood? Bad idea.

Double hypocrite!
just learn your lesson already!!!!!!!!! Understand that you truly don't know jack shit about what you are talking about, and that you are just an attack beast that will say anything whether it's true or not!
This is classic Phatscotty..."I posted a lie, you called me out on it, but I'm going to claim you don't know jack shit and are attacking me. Oh, and you're a hypocrite."Phatscotty wrote:Interestingly, you are in 100% agreement with Michelle Bachmann!Symmetry wrote:Gotta love the right wing's attempts to sabotage American foreign policy.

It doesn't change what you said either. Are you saying that agreeing with Michelle Bachmann is worse than being an unmitigated troll?Phatscotty wrote:that doesnt change what he said and I bolded is 100% exactly what Michelle Bachmann is saying about Umah Abedin, and the relationships between those in Washington DC and the Muslim Brotherhood....
I blame the ultra religious and the high age limits (21).Haggis_McMutton wrote:If the US had a normal drinking culture, then posting pictures with liquor would be about as exciting as posting pictures with your breakfast plate.

So far, that website has been very good, but depending on how that money is divided, some portion of it could go to medical services and social welfare programs, which are dominated by the Muslim Brotherhood. The problem is that it's difficult to track down foreign "aid," so there's some chance that a minority of the money went to the MB, but the "take over Egypt" and "gave them $1.5bn" claims are false.Symmetry wrote:Politifact says...Phatscotty wrote:Interestingly, you are in 100% agreement with Michelle Bachmann!Symmetry wrote:Gotta love the right wing's attempts to sabotage American foreign policy.

False
But hey, continue spreading the lie if you want.

When Sameeha Wehba emerged just before dawn, she found she was the only Christian left in this small Egyptian village just south of Cairo, the location of some of the country’s earliest pyramids.
Dahshour’s entire Christian community – as many as 100 families some estimate – fled to nearby towns in the violence earlier this week. The flock’s priest, cloaked in a white sheet to hide him, was taken out in a police van. At least 16 homes and properties of Christians were pillaged and some torched and a church damaged.
Before you get vague on us, what's your opinion on this event?Phatscotty wrote:uh-huh
