    Your biggest problem is your arrogance.

    You think you know so much that you can neither recognize nor acknowledge what you don't know.

    I would like to think you will grow and mature out of it, but my understanding is that you may already be an adult.

    We pity you.

    LOFs. They think they have a big racism fight going on with every one of Lin's teams, if not the entire NBA, but they don't really.

    Not seeing nearly the same amount of coverage for this bomb put on the plane killing more russians than people in Paris. Is it because the media can smother video of bloodied streets and screams all over their pages instead of plane debris?

    Fair enough, I accept that you think you know what you are talking about. However I would like to point out that despite your arrogance, you and Lou aren't in the position to pity anyone.

    With that said, it's probably best to move on with the conversation.

    I really hate it, FWIW, when the Rockets in their world are just as depressing as the real world. I know apples and oranges in terms of importance, but damn, if my favorite sports team can't help me escape normal reality, it sucks.

    The Rockets look about as easy to fix as violent extremism, but it's like the opposite. Lackadaisical extremism. Moping pukes.

    Because in the eyes of the American media a Western European is worth more than a Eastern European. An American is worth more than the Western European though.

    This is a fake twitter post, right? Still no confirmation from any other sources.

    There are two or three terrorists with guns barricaded in an appartment near the Stade de France and they seem to be out of bullets. Hopefully they are caught alive though I doubt it.

    Also another guy was found with exactly the same passport as one of the terrorists in Serbia yesterday.

    Terrorists and/or the apartment could be booby trapped. This is gonna take a painfully long time to resolve.

    It's already been like 2 hours. They say that two are dead.
    Apparently the people in the flat are the 9nth attacker, the guy that had escaped alive and the mastermind that thought to be in Syria but apparently had gone to France. (and he didn't attack himself..only told others to sacrifice their lives :rolleyes: ).
    Who knows what that guy would be planning next if they didn't get him.

    What's dumb is saying I said we should do nothing and let them run wild when I didn't. No, that's not dumb, it's outright dishonest and the only way you can try to debate me is to just make up stupid things. Good job at that ISIS Pawn!
