Yea well if there is one thing you want if you eat steaks, burgers, etc is that the meat is properly cut and prepared.  If you don't cut the stomach and other organs out properly then the meat can become contaminated with bacteria.  We also run the lines twice as fast meat that will be shipped to EU.  I'd rather have a skilled butcher than someone that doesn't really care about the food product because they are barely paid shit (one reason why I avoid fast food and most restaurants is because the workers probably don't care much because they are barely paid).  Reading fast food nation pretty much opens the eyes of how shady the entire food industry is in USA. 

 

As for the second quote.  I probably should have used Africans.  I don't use the phrase African Americans.  Some were born in Africa and some were born here in USA that work at my job.  I didn't really care to distinguish the two earlier this morning. 

It sounds silly but I consider myself white and I would never expect someone to say European American or Caucasian.  Almost all blacks that I know don't care if you call them black.  I've never heard someone say to me would you please call me African American.  The only people that have ever said anything to me were white people trying to get me to use some "politically correct term".  Most blacks don't care if they are called African American or Black ( http://www.gallup.com/poll/28816/black-african-american.aspx )  If you want to consider me racist then so be it I don't give a fuck.  I won't change the way I speak especially if a race has no problem with the word being used to describe them. 

I'll change it to Africans though so it makes more sense considering most black USA citizens were forced immigrants.

What's wrong with saying Black?  My parents were born in Mexico and it bothers the F out of me when people call me Mexican because I am not a national of Mexico and Mexican is a nationality and not a race or ethncity.  No problem with people that want to be called that, but I don't.  Why is it wrong to correctly say something and not use logical fallicy buzzwords.

Nothing, really. People just look for things to complain about.

I see your point on the not wanting to be called Mexican but how is calling someone black that is black a logical fallacy?  I know most Mexicans don't like to be called brown but some don't give a fuck.  I'm sure most Asians wouldn't like to be called yellow.  My point was that most black people don't give a shit if they are called black or African American.  People shouldn't give a shit if they are called the color of their skin but apparently some do.



I continually run across stupid threads supported by stupid people. This was a different place not long ago, now its just so incredibly disappointing.

Im out, peace

And that is why wages have been suppressed for many jobs in the USA.  Take working in a meat plant.  It used to be a decent job providing about 20 dollars a hour.  Flood in a bunch of illegals and the average wage is now ~10 dollars a hour.  Illegal immigrants supress wages. 

Most Americans don't even want those jobs. They complain about them taking their jobs away when they themselves don't even want it.

That is such an ignorant statement. If you pay 20$ an hour to work in a meat plant you would have a line around your building.... Just because you do not think illegals effect anything they absolutely do. My father was a Contractor and the contractors that used illegals could severely undercut "legal" contractors and make it impossible for them to make money in some situatuions.

I find breaking the law because you fled from a shitty, filthy, poverty stricken country filled with famine and crime to come to a place like the US to be akin to riding your bike on a sidewalk. It's just a fucking joke. If they want to work, if they want a better life for themselves or their family, let them in... let them all in. And if our government won't let them in, I hope they keep on sneaking in anyway. Fuck it.

I'd argue that, on a purely moral basis, the american is not more entitled to the job than anyone else willing to do it just as well.

Just make economic immigration legal for all that can find a job. Problem solved.

An illegal alien? What planet were they originally from?

Really find it a weird way to demonise immigrants when you decide that you need to make it sound like they aren't even from Earth.

Guns are for pussies. Real men don't need penis extensions to deal with dangerous situations.

Shameful though it may be, my penis does not incapacitate those I shoot at with it.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

Then you're just one of those people who really do need a penis extension.
