Every rapist & murderer & thug is someone's son or brother or friend too. So? What a silly thing to say.

Choices have consequences. Choosing to break into an innocent person's home can mean getting shot, and deservedly so.

Can someone explain why we need ANOTHER sub-mediocre sports franchise in Seattle that will raise the tax burden & snarl traffic??

It's not totally the cops' fault -- they arrest these gangbangers over and over again & our criminal "justice" system just turns 'em loose.

This is precisely what you get when you have naive liberal voters installing soft-on-crime liberal local governments. Elections have consequences.

Really says a lot that our local gov't is so incompetently run that they can't even afford to water the grass in the parks.

Oh wait, let me guess: this is George Bush's fault, right?

Unfortunately, elections have consequences. Seattle is a liberal sanctuary city because of decades of people voting for liberals who are soft on crime, won't fix roads, love to raise taxes, love to give free money away to freeloaders, etc.

I am a very right-wing conservative. Neither I or any other fellow right-wing conservative advocates squatting. Ever. Squatting = stealing private property.

So you are just factually incorrect.

"not having a clear concise message"??? That's an understatement. The media interviewed hundreds of the Occupy retards & not a single one had anything cogent to say except that capitalism was dumb. Losers.

I completely agree. Except that our "justice" system actually steps in & tells the homeowners they can't do anything while the situation is "investigated" (laff) for a year & half.

In other words, the justice system & the cops protect the guilty & punish the innocent.

We are so closely monitored in the oil industry by the feds, the WA state dept. of Ecology, the Coast Guard, OSHA, NIOSH, DOT, etc. that it would blow you away. And about 30-50% is paperwork.

I know it's so easy to just blame the big, bad oil companies, but it's not reality.

Ok, it's debunk time for you:
1) I don't care how they do it in Europe or Canada. That's very simple.

2) I work at an oil refinery, not as managment, but a worker bee. I see the gov't interference & over-regulation & giddy eagerness to fine aaaall the time. Gov't is the primary reason no refineries are being built.

3) We do not subsidize oil companies or give them any kind of tax breaks any more than any other company (which you probably hate too). For example, we allow them to write off the cost of equipment as it wears out (called capital depreciation). Hardly a love letter to the oil companies.

4) Exactly. Like I said before - it IS mostly supply & demand.

5) Blaming oil speculators is convenient, but if you think they cause long-term high or low prices, you don't understand what speculators do.
