@Used2baFreeCountry: Yep! Business As Usual is ALL about money. Human life, especially brown skinned foreign human life, is of little consequence.
And you throw around names, and wear name calling, like a badge.
Shame on you.
Gap and Walmart are the two American brands that won't sign on.

So you intentionally make it inconvenient and uncomfortable for others, so that it can be more convenient and comfortable for you. You justify this because these others are from out of town. And then you blame them for failing to see and understand how right you are?
Yep, that's the Athens elitism that we all know and love.
FYI, I'm a resident of the OC, who still owns property in ACC and who has worked (and spent money) in ACC for the past 20 years. That may still make me an out of towner, but it doesn't make you any less wrong. [/quote]

"The Emperor's New Clothes" (Danish: Kejserens nye Klæder) is a short tale by Hans Christian Andersen about two weavers who promise an Emperor a new suit of clothes that is invisible to those unfit for their positions, stupid, or incompetent. When the Emperor parades before his subjects in his new clothes, a child cries out, "But he isn't wearing anything at all!" The tale has been translated into over a hundred languages.[1]

So which party needs new clothes?

If this should go through (I don't think it will) You'll need to take out a mortgage to buy a new pair of breeches. I wish this could serve as a wake up to just how dangerous the democrat loons in Washington are to free enterprise and liberty.

Whoops, you forgot to mention that the owner's of the substandard factories are making tons of money by exploiting their workers and killing some with substandard safety.
NO ONE NEEDS NEW CLOTHES!
posted @ Sunday, May 19, 2013 - 09:15[quote][b]Used2baFreeCountry[/b] - A group of democrat senators is trying to get major US retailers to sign a global pact written by labor groups that would make them legally liable when foreign factories fail to comply with set standards when the US retailers do not own those factories.
How would you like to be legally liable for something that you do not own or control?

YOU have control over what brands you chose to buy and where you buy them. Don't use this cop-out. When enough people stop buying these blood clothes the imports will cease and the factories will close.
Either boycott the brands that don't chose to comply with safe standards or PROUDLY say that you don't care about underpaid human beings working for an extremely poor living in foreign lands. And no one around here will care about you or your well being either.
Which is it?

At least one of the members of the NEGDTF had not completed all of his pre-requirements to be a LEO and was NOT a LEO on that day. I don't know if he ever got his job back. AND the informant witness, who caused the whole thing to happen, may have been lying to save her a$$ from earlier arrests.

Not much immoral about bloodlessly stealing money from the banksters. How much do we send them every month in 'fees'? How much do we lose to inflation caused by their taking gifts from the Fed ($60 billion/ month)?

Who keeps on trusting you when you've been cheating,
And spending your nights on the town?
And who keeps on saying that he still wants you,
When you're through running around?
And who keeps on loving you when you've been lying,
Saying things ain't what they seem?
God does,
But I don't.
God will,
But I won't.
And that's the difference
Between God and me.

Sadly it suggests that it's their culture, their "rite" of passage to adulthood or some such crap. That culture doesn't take their disagreements to a court, they don't file a civil claim against the offending party, they don't call in law enforcement when their inventory gets stolen. They have to "man up" and shoot each other. What was it that was said? "Let the streets handle it"? [/quote]
Of course, thanks for a thoughtful answer to a jagged question.

I'll bet you're counting on the fact that homeless people can't vote because they don't have a residence. Or that the illusion of property ownership makes for superior citizenship by way of elitism.

Georgia athletic director Greg McGarity expects the 2014 football schedule to be released later this month at the Southeastern Conference spring meeting in Destin, Fla.

McGarity said he saw ?models? of the ?14 schedule in a meeting of conference athletic directors last week in Jacksonville, but that it?s still under review. He?s not worried about Georgia?s strength of schedule for the coming four-team playoff. read more
