My opinion is obviously biased (as everyone's) and it was fuelled by anger from reading that article. So excuse me, I don't normally participate in political debates but I needed to rant a bit.

I realise that sexual assault is a serious problem in any human culture. In the USA, university fraternities and alcohol have a bad reputation. However banning fraternities is not the correct answer.
Logan: I had no idea how endemic that it is so rife, so widespread, that so many Egyptian men admit to sexual harassing women and think it's completely acceptable. In fact, blame the women for it.
Pelley: Why are you telling this story now?
Logan: One thing that I am extremely proud of that I didn't intend is when my female colleagues stood up and said that I'd broken the silence on what all of us have experienced but never talk about.
Pelley: What did they mean by that?
Logan: That women never complain about incidents of sexual violence because you don't want someone to say, "Well women shouldn't be out there." But I think there are a lot of women who experience these kinds of things as journalists and they don't want it to stop their job because they do it for the same reasons as me - they are committed to what they do. They are not adrenaline junkies you know, they're not glory hounds, they do it because they believe in being journalists.

There is just one possible solution
- immediately stop importing the "refugees" to Europe, build some refugee camps e.g. on islands belonging to Greece and move them all there while their cases will be examined
- do everything possible to immediately stop the conflict in Syria
- destroy ISIS with any means necessary
- properly examine every "refugee" and immediately deport everybody who has no legal right to get the refugee status or has committed any criminal act
- give humanitarian support to every war victim

The odds of being killed by aterrorist are extremely low and will continue to be extremely even if the US allows unlimited Syrian refugees flood into the country.
If you do not live, work or play near the center of a big city, the odds of getting killed by terrorists are almost zilch.
I tend to be conservative, but Obama is right about the conservative cowardice. I am surprised that conservatives are that frightened given that they usually do not live in cities.[/QUOTE]
You've OBVIOUSLY never watched 4 hours **good amount of time to derive a "political" bend of a programme. ...** of FOX NEWS. .
VERY often they avoid the primary source of an incident and report things from a very polemical protective.
And whenever an actual occurrence of something that might be construed as RACIALLY INVOLVED ( I.e. if the two parties involved don't match suits) it gets "debated" *(with unconfirmed information at this point) REPEATEDLY until the next broadcast of each daily persons show time.
Its sad but a great many of working class people have left the cities and rely on this crap to fill their dumbass apprehensive minds.
They buy into this crap and PRONOUNCED hysteria even before it's been confirmed. And after seeing another "homeless looking bastard" reported as a man who "swore allegiance to Isis" I got frightened.
I've been on subways where people have claimed they've heard God telling them what not to do with theirDINNER. It doesn't mean that that's something intrinsic to the story.
There are A LOT of poorv and desperate people in the Us.
The smart ones make a break for the beach towns and realize they've got it made (weather wise) for 9 months of the year, the biggest struggle is fighting amongst other poor homeless bastards wanting to steal your stuff.
I don't know how good and open heartedly good and willing people can be continually taken advantage of by a group that promises so much but gives back so little.
It just seems like people canonizing one effort without talking about the real results and the real factors without speaking to each other.
If I were a cynical bastard I'd imagine this is prime opportunity to exchange human currency for benefits while controlling their minds.
Recruits go up as the polarized notions go up.
Things are .. as spoken before^^above^^ financial support is often the cause of the next outbreak.
I'm at a loss to figure out what to suggest for the "world" but a good argument for the "civilized" world would be reductions.
Unfortunately there is a political body that can accept waivers and such for change.
How can this idea of justice be expanded without compromising one nation's ability to exploit another.
Diplomacy is strange. We can all wish it were perfect but it clearly doesn't bend that way.
The shocker is how many people (ordinary people) buy into this prescribed hate and do the dirty work for those behind a desk.
I wish I were as astute as you folks here but I am not.
I've given up believing in my presidential vote years ago (*electoral college; formidablyb DEMOCRATIC state CA; etc ) so what's the result.
For years people have contested the worth of the electoral college vote versus the popular vote.
But seeing just what I'm seeing. ..I could in fact imagine MORE corruption if things were left to a popular vote now
People won't walk into a booth and select a choice based upon ideas and structure but they WILL (given another individuals personal private information) do soforCouple of bucks.
