They won't come for you; the liberals abolished most of the mental institutions in the 1960's and 1970's and let them all out to walk among us. So you will live upto Einstein's razor: Insanity is doing the same thing over and over, and expecting different results. You don't seem to be convincing anyone here.

It all depends. But usually you don't get to choose your religion. It is mostly a matter of where you are born. The U.S. is the exception to the rule.

Republic and e*******l college avoids the tyranny of the majority. Democracy is two wolves and a sheep arguing over what to have for dinner. In fact, one of the worst things we did was ratify the 17th(?) amendment that made e******n of Senators by popular v**e instead of state legislatures. We should repeal it.

Absolutely intentional! Philippines has many Muslims and has become more anti-American; Government has aligned themselves China. It will be interesting to see what an investigation of the cargo ship crew reveals. Their ship continued for almost an hour before reporting the so-called accident.

Oh please do! But don't apologize because I have, at one time or another, said everything you are saying. The politicians are worthless in this battle. In fact, along with the complacent media, they are the real enemy. People keep v****g them back into office, over and over. People get the kind of government they deserve. But Trump upset this unbalance by naming Gorsuch to the SCOTUS. Now we need that Liberal Hag RBG to retire and the court will be restored to the proper balance and start observing the Constitution that they, and I, took an oath to defend. That being said, I still desire cooler heads to prevail rather than taking the law into our own hands like some l*****t-c*******t-socialist-f*****t-a****a(anti-First Amendment)-elitist-statist-totalitarian. When Tyranny become law, r*******n become duty; Until that time, don't crap all over the Constitution. It still has real meaning to some of us despite Obama's agenda. There really are some peaceful Muslims. If you would open your eyes and get out once in a while you would probably meet them. In fact, you probably already know some, but just never bothered to find out they are Muslim. I wholehearted think they need to be more outspoken against the Wahhabist, Al Qaeda, ISIL brand of Islam that is a cancer. Just as some Fundamentalist Christians are misguided, so are many Muslims, but not all. Islam need a reformation. This is the problem that they will need to solve because you can't k**l all of them. Yes, yes, Islam isn't really a religion in the usual since. It is a doctrinaire way of life and a political system for many adherents. Although it is one of the big 3 monotheistic religions it has succumbed to misguided precepts and hadiths not compatible with the United States Constitution.

Don't start this crap in America. Trump is right: we don't want Muslims here unless they can live by our rules, peacefully, without constantly clamoring for Sharia law. We don't need anyone looking for excuses to take the law into their own hands and apply vigilante justice. Liberals, do you understand!? Let trump do his job to keep America safe. Obama is not your President any longer. It time to return to the rule of law in our Constitution.

Yes. Most millennials say "There" instead of "Their." Oh wait, you must be an old conservative curmudgeon like me because you were referring to the definition of n***ardly, weren't you?

Actually, Warren is a good example of why we should NOT have a minimum wage, welfare, etc. Her father died when she was young and her mother raised her. If her mother had been on welfare it could have been the start of a multi-generational trend. Not all people who start out poor or disadvantaged remain so. Not all people born into money remain so. Some hard work lifted her family out of poverty. This is what we should expect from everyone. Quit crying about the circumstances of your birth. Immigrants come to this country to better themselves. Natural born citizens can do the same.

I think there is an easier way to check how many rectangles there are in the diagram besides trying to count them. If I remember correctly, I think it is the number of distinct line segments that you can count equals the number of squares. It has been decades since I have though about this but it seem like something I learned back in high school (Euler's rule or some such thing?). Are there any mathematicians out there who can confirm this?

I took about twenty minutes and got all the questions correct. I did have to spend 15 minutes on the "number of squares in the diagram" but the rest of the problems I completed in about 5 minutes. Did you miss any questions? I suspect you got them all correct. Go back and do it again, as fast as possible, and see if you score improves. I bet it will.

At least you can still cipher a bit for an old dude! That's a sk**l a lot of young people can't do. I learned math at a very early age and could do most problems mentally. I drove my teachers nuts because I wouldn't show any work. They wouldn't believe me until they asked me questions and problems verbally.
Today the kids all have calculators and they can answer quickly. I wonder if they really understand what and they are doing, or why.
A true story:
I went to the store to buy some items; toothpaste, shampoo and a couple other incidentals which came to approximately $12.--. I also bought a comforter for my bed; $49.99. The clerk scanned all the items, but the comforter would not scan. She had to enter the barcode and the price manually into the register. When she entered the price she must have not pressed the "9" hard enough one time because it rang up at $4.99 even though she told me the comforter was $49.99. When she hit the button to total the sale it came up as $17.--. Then, nothing; no reaction on her part! It never occurred to her that $17 was a lot less than the $49.99 that she had just stated was the price of the comforter. She just went through the motions...GIGO (Garbage In, Garbage Out), like an unthinking robot. Except a robot would have entered the correct amount for the comforter in the first place.
So, the minimum wage that fast food workers want is $15/hr. Maybe when they learn to be competent at their job I'll support this. It seems like every time I go to these establishments I end up with a wrong order or the wrong change. No wonder they are being replaced with automated kiosks. This only hurts the lowest sk**led employees who are affected by the technology. Instead of getting $15/hr, they are instead out of a job. If your full time job is working for McDonald's at minimum wage then you have bigger problems than earning a livable wage. These kinds of jobs were meant for part-time employees as an entry level or while going to school. We have already eliminated many of the jobs that high school kids can do; paper routes, baby sitting, mowing lawns, working the hamburger stand, because there are too many people without sk**ls filling these jobs and trying to earn a living to support their family. Therefore, they don't earn enough to put substantial money into circulation in the economy nor buy quality products that would demand more higher sk**led employees in the workplace. This means the government has to subsidize these people, which means higher taxes for the rest of us, which t***slates into less spending power. It appears you can't fix stupid, or as Forrest Gump would say, "Stupid is as stupid does."
Sorry. I didn't mean to digress.
