is this something you foresee for yourself? Multiple wives or marrying a 12 year old girl?

And you can try doing it to yourself

[speechlesstx]

Not to riot.

Who exactly is prone to riot?

[NeedKarma]

Aw, I see, you want people to say "black people", right?

[NeedKarma]

and you can try doing it to yourself

I didn't bring it up as a possibility, you did, so it's something you've thought about. I didn't even consider it.

[speechlesstx]

There's a reason they put out this PSA and it says something about our society, what would that be? It's not a trap, it's a serious question - and if people are afraid to answer it that says something, too.

[tomder55]

How so?

Easy ;already polygamists are trying to make their cause the next civil rights cause. They may have a case . Since the definition is being redifined from ONE man and ONE women then why restrict it to one partner ?

Age of consent laws are arbitrary anyway and have fluctuated over the years . There is already a proposal in England to lower the age of consent to 13 to protect adult pervs who have sex with teen girls . Here in the US NAMBLA has actively campaigned to lower the age of consent laws for years so they can get it on with boys.

There's no doubt, kind like these riots:

Rioting breaks out after Kentucky basketball match - YouTube

Hello:

Black people aren't stupid. Bill O'Reilly thinks they're stupid.. He thinks they can't tell the difference between white COPS getting off after they beat up a black guy, and George Zimmerman getting off.. But, there's BIG differences..

One case represents the power of the state vs black people. The jury got it WRONG, and EVERYBODY knew it. That really pissed black people off, as it SHOULD have. They took to the streets as they SHOULD have. That's how the world demonstrates its outrage. I was outraged too.

The Zimmerman case doesn't represent the power of the state against black people... It's not even close to that... Maybe schmuck Bill O'Reilly can't tell the difference, but your ordinary black person on the street can... Will an acquittal of Zimmerman outrage me?? Yawnnn..

Now, will there be some disturbances?? Probably. It's HOT. Unemployment is HIGH among black youth. But, THAT'LL be the reason they make trouble - not the Zimmerman trial.

Sorry dude, drunks getting out of hand is not the issue.

[NeedKarma]

Rioting is the issue. Why do you dismiss it when it's not blacks doing it? It doesn't serve the point you want to make about blacks? Say it instead of hinting at it.

Maybe if they put half the effort into graduating high school as they put into posing as thugs... they might find a job... there are reasons so many of them can't get jobs... and its got nothing to do with the color of their skin.

I fail to see how that means O'Reilly thinks blacks are stupid.

No one likes rogue cops.

Yeah, the Sheriff put out a 'don't riot' PSA because it's hot.

[speechlesstx]

You people are priceless. You will not find anywhere that I've dismissed rioting except in your mind and it isn't me afraid to say it, it's you. Even ex said it, he just wants us to believe blacks will spontaneously riot because it's hot right after Zimmerman is acquitted.

Who exactly is prone to riot?

So what is your answer to this question you posed?

[speechlesstx]

So what is your answer to this question you posed?

You first, I'm the one who asked it. That's the point of questions, to get an answer from someone else.

Hello again, Steve:

Yeah, the Sheriff put out a 'don't riot' PSA because it's hot.

Nahhhh... The sheriff has NO clue about the black community any more than Bill O'Reilly does, or smoothy either, for that matter...

Here's an example of O'Reilly's STUPIDITY about black people.

Discussing his recent dinner with Rev. Al Sharpton at the Harlem restaurant Sylvia's, Bill O'Reilly reported that he "couldn't get over the fact that there was no difference between Sylvia's restaurant and any other restaurant in New York City. I mean, it was exactly the same, even though it's run by blacks, primarily black patronship." O'Reilly added: "There wasn't one person in Sylvia's who was screaming, 'M-Fer, I want more iced tea.' "

I'm SURE he thinks those M-Fers are going to riot...

No they aren't.

Yes they are .there is no Federal standard and the age of consent does vary from state to state .

[NeedKarma]

is running a PSA telling people not to riot if George Zimmerman is acquitted,

No, that not what the article or PSA says. They mention that either group may protest based on the verdict that gets handed down:
"Anticipating that the outcome of the very public, and racially-tinged, case is likely to disappoint one swath of the population or another, law enforcement agencies have set up a response plan."

Why did you automatically assume that the verdict is acquittal?

[NeedKarma]

there is no Federal standard and the age of consent does vary from state to state .

So because of equal rights for gays you expect states to lower the marrying age to 12? This is the logic you run your life with?
