This is Fucking nuts. Now one of the ladies is saying she thought this was part of one of those internet prank shows, that the other times they did it with water she didn't know it was training, she just thought this was another one for the video.
Anything to do with north Korea, how do you know what's true and what's not, even CNN couldn't figure out a spin on this On Feb 24, 2017 5:39 PM, "Ken Hohhof" <af...@kwisp.com> wrote: Something is wrong when the top news story today is Spicey banning some major news outlets from his WH press conference. Not that it isn’t disturbing, but … Hello, does anybody care about the story that North Korea is believed to have carried out an assassination in a Malaysian airport using VX? And it is believed they purposely did it in a way to demonstrate to the world and especially the U.S. their capability and willingness to use the banned chemical weapon? Oh, and to piss off their only two friends in the world, Malaysia and China. Kim Jong Un is probably wondering, what do I have to do to make the front page? I launched a ballistic missile toward Japan while Trump was meeting with the PM of Japan. Then I had my half brother assassinated in public in a foreign airport using 2-part (battlefield weaponized) VX nerve agent. And all the Americans care about is speeches at CPAC and who was disinvited to Spicey’s press conference. And whether Dippin Dots are the ice cream of the future. *From:* Af [mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com] *On Behalf Of *Forrest Christian (List Account) *Sent:* Friday, February 24, 2017 5:19 PM *To:* af <af@afmug.com> *Subject:* Re: [AFMUG] OT trolling You've hit on a lot of my frustration with the R's and D's. Add to that the fact that they have convinced the american public that the only viable option is either an 'R' or a 'D' and you pretty much sum it up. For the record, I didn't vote for either a 'R' or a 'D' the last election. I hoped to be part of the solution where we consider other alternatives as well.

The difference was all important to the aliens, but the Enterprise crew could hardly tell them apart. I think of that when people immediately identify someone as left or right, Democrat or Republican, Shia or Sunni. As if their faces were painted a certain way so you can immediately tell. And once you know their political party or religious sect, that’s all you need to know. TV is that way, if they are interviewing someone, the most important thing is to have a graphic that tells you if they are a D or R. It’s like a sporting event, you need to know what team someone is on, and then can cheer or boo accordingly. Our political parties take themselves way too seriously, they seem to believe people are born either D or R and that party owns them. The parties don’t seem capable of running capable candidates for office and governing well in order to earn votes. But when they eek out an election victory, they proclaim it a landslide and believe they have a mandate. Rather than accept that voters hated the other guys a little more. This time. It’s kind of ironic with Trump and Putin in the news, neither of whom really care about ideology, it’s all about power and personality. Yet we still want it to be a story about left vs right, my party vs your party. *From:* Af [mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com] *On Behalf Of *ch...@wbmfg.com *Sent:* Friday, February 24, 2017 9:51 AM *To:* af@afmug.com *Subject:* Re: [AFMUG] OT trolling Yeahbut they are democrats so they are leftists so they are inherently truthful and trustyworthy... *From:* Adam Moffett *Sent:* Friday, February 24, 2017 7:45 AM *To:* af@afmug.com *Subject:* Re: [AFMUG] OT trolling The statements come from representatives of the "Sweden Democrats" party.

They oppose integration because they believe that integration involves "meeting in the middle" and do not think that the indigenous Swedish people <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedes> should have to bear the burden " The section on ideologies is interesting too.

Whereas the U.S. accepts mostly women and children, who have been heavily screened, and there are usually communities willing to help them integrate. I’m not sure why we are wanting to point fingers at Sweden and make some political issue of this. Why not instead look for a model of how to do this right? By all accounts, Canada is very good at this, with families virtually adopting refugees and helping them resettle and integrate into Canadian society. Just be happy we get some choice unlike Europe which doesn’t have the Atlantic ocean between them and disasters like Syria. *From:* Af [mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com <af-boun...@afmug.com>] *On Behalf Of *Chuck McCown *Sent:* Thursday, February 23, 2017 2:48 PM *To:* af@afmug.com *Subject:* Re: [AFMUG] OT trolling One for Jaime: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/02/23/sweden- democrats-trump-was-right.html *From:* Chuck McCown *Sent:* Thursday, February 23, 2017 1:42 PM *To:* af@afmug.com *Subject:* Re: [AFMUG] OT trolling Oh, and I had a business partner for 30 years that was trans.... yes I have known trans people.... *From:* Ken Hohhof *Sent:* Thursday, February 23, 2017 1:33 PM *To:* af@afmug.com *Subject:* Re: [AFMUG] OT trolling Once you know someone who is transgender, it turns out not to be like that at all. There are exceptions to everything, but if the first thing that comes to your mind is identifying as a girl to shower with the girls, then probably you don’t have any friends or relatives that are transgender. Well, that is unlikely, more likely you just don’t know they are trans. And school kids unfortunately take the brunt of this. Anywhere else, are there really going to be bathroom police checking birth certificates?

If this was mid 1970s and if I discovered that the president said I could shower with the girls at school it I “identified as a girl”, I sure as hell would have identified as a girl.... I have not heard a single commentator address this issue. Boys will be boys. What do the lgbtqrstuv folks have as an answer to this situation?
