Pretty dumb, but it does have a point about carpooling and public transportation. Maybe it should have said "Use less oil, Ride the Bus"
I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

Split argument into Flame and Burn, called "Argument about Racism".  Please, guys, I know that this is an emotionally charged topic, but we have Flame and Burn for a reason.  Keep it civil in this and other forums.

Also, reposting the picture that Lexikon posted that was included as part of an argument post:

well I chose my computer and car because I'm a photographer and I needed that stuff to make money in the first place.  My cable tv came with the internet I need to do my job.

I sure as hell don't know where my smart phone, gaming system and flat screen tv are that I supposedly bought.  They are certainly NOT where I live.

However I could get those things if I save up.  They are one time expenditures.

Insurance is nto a one time expenditure. It's ongoing.  So it would be like buying a flat screen every month for years on end.

Not really a good comparison to begin with.

Oh come now. If these people were any good at critical thinking, they wouldn't be using "arguments" like this in the first place.

Of these things listed, I have a laptop, which I only bought because the last one fried on me.

I've got all those things minus that high a car payment and I can afford them because my taxes pay for a publicly funded health care system that is considerably more efficient than a private one and leaves me with a fair bit more money at the end of the day.

1. Saving a tree is for environmental reason, stupid.
2. No one think the former is offensive. Just we happened to not adhere to blind patriotism.
3. U Mad Bruh?
4. Hey, you don't seem to bitch about all the illegal white immigrants living here. And you don't seem to realize that on top of targeting Hispanic people, these voting laws target black people, senior citizen and young people. Oh look all the group that could potentially be a threat to conservatives.

Just curious, what white immigrants and why would anyone care about them if they're in the USA legally? ???

Meant to say illegal white immigrants. Generally from East European decent. Our anti-Immigration laws targets illegal Mexican immigrants but gives free passes if it's from eastern Europe.

Edit. God I'm doing all sorts of spelling mistakes.

Meant to say illegal white immigrants. Generally for East European decent. Our anti-Immigration laws targets illegal Mexican immigrants but gives free passes if it's from eastern europe.

Just FYI, there are a fair number of illegal immigrants from the Middle East, Far East, and Africa as well.
