@mialinay thoughts?

And please note I'm saying this with all good intentions and respect. You and I have debated some hot topics before without any issues, I think the perceived tone in your last comment just came across as less than stellar.

1. My point went over your head.
2. Not according to all the data and reports published by their government. 3. If you have data or reports also published that contradict this please cite. I pulled my info directly from .gov data and stats published by the Australian government and rape is rape, forcefully grabbing someone's privates is forcefully grabbing someone's privates--kind of insane I have to even add clarification to this. Also, telling me to "try harder" comes across as more condescending and becomes self-defeating. I would recommend you provide actual counter points and try to back them up with data in the future.

Ah, good deal. I'm sitting here like... good god I never said anything like that, lol.

Wait what just happened? I completely disagree with @guest_ but I never called him anything like that.

Unreal Tournament 2004

Yeah with respect there's a difference between a Goofy costume and someone wearing a leather gimp outfit. I think it's a bit insane that I even have to clarify the distinction.

I wasnt criticizing the people at the event necessarily, their parents definitely deserve blame for taking their children to an event like that.***edited for grammar

Yeah we're going to have to agree to disagree. You're not going to convince me that this is appropriate for children or that it teaches anything productive. I have no problem with gay rights or gay pride or with people being who they are--this represents none of that.

Yeah but there's a line on what's appropriate for their age. Walking a bunch of gimps in leather with their genitals bulging out doesnt seem appropriate for the same reason you dont take minors to strip clubs.

Not really, I pay more attention to his charity work and youth outreach programs.***edited for spelling

Considering even doing something resembling a Nazi salute can get you jail time and/or massive fines in Germany I doubt this was malicious and agree with @condor1990. This was most likely just stupidity/an accident.***edited for grammar

In the context of the movie, he's giving reason for his cold indifference on what effects the rest of the world, his actions on it, and more over inevitably ties it back into their place in the world. I dont want to spoil what happens next incase you have seen it, but her effective response to all of this is essentially that above all else her being a mom proves her place in the world and demonstrates her resolve to now be one. Sorry if this is a bit vague but wanted to avoid all possible spoilers.

Going on the offensive during the winter doesnt apply here.

I appreciate your respectful tone and your response. It fills me with legitimate joy that people can have a discussion or even argument and still be civil with each other... not a lot of that going around lately.

Considering Greenland already contracts the US for military and security operations upwards of several million dollars a year to protect their interest and resources, their nighter than thou attitude is a bit hypocritical.

Now sure how you would expect a sitting president to legally acquire federal resources for personal gain. Do you have any idea how many federal and governmental bodies for BOTH countries would actually need to be involved with this if it became serious? Also, by your own admission Russia has already attempted to do the same thing, rather forcefully, to meet the same end because of how rich in natural resources this country is. I'm not even a big fan of Trump but people like you get so caught up with just hating the guy that people cant even see past the orange hair to any logical move competed by the administration. Of course all of this is a moot point since the original suggestion of purchasing the country was a joke.

Yep, there's a reason the US already handles the majority of the military and security operations for them... because there's a very real threat that Russia may attempt to impose an annexation. In fact they've already tried twice in the past 20 years, rather forcefully and in less polite terms than Trump and the US just did as a joke.

You're lumping in americans with the rest of the world. The word is bigger than the perspectives of you and other third generation Americans. Go confuse a Czechoslovakian as a Russian and see how they respond. It's not racism, it's called different people being from different countries and having different cultures regardless of the fact that their skin color looks similar. By you calling the differentia unimportant you're doing the premace of your own argument a disservice.

@anthracite bless your heart.

I guess I'm not allowed to joke around on a website called funsubstance.
