ABC world news - Page 2

Oh jeez. Are we going to start an argument over J6's comment?

We don't need to dress up the comment. Look at what our opponents say about us all the time.

To Trolls
What I'm trying to say is that if you are here, get used to reading some comments that may hurt your feelings. It's our forum, we don't have to dress it up.

Have a wonderful day!

Sorry, don't mean to start anything. I just think we're above their kind of rhetoric

My point was that I didn't take anyone's job because my job wouldn't exist if I wasn't a qualified person. My firm added that position on account of them wanting to hire me and once I left them I actually left a spot for someone else to get. So (suspending forum rules) fuck you ALICRAP. If anything I CREATED a fucking job for someone. In case you don't know every person in the financial services industry actually creates four more jobs in New York simply because we need accountants, SEC personnel, and data processing people.

The idea that a company would hire someone else who is dumber than me is absolutely fucking ridiculous so I don't know why they are arguing this at all. We're not cherry pickers here so if one of us is a better nurse, writer, lawyer, teacher, whatever for the same amount of money then people just have to deal with it. I don't plan on ever attaching a discount to my expected wage because I'm an immigrant, I should get a premium for all the years that I've paid taxes, full tuition, full price on everything, full insurance, and all the other shit that everyone gets for free or at a discount.

What kind of communist bullshit are they trying to pull here with this "we deserve jobs because we're citizens", what is this the fucking Soviet Union? Where have they been living all these years to not notice that this is the US of A and if you don't adjust you perish. Sorry for the profanity but I am sick and tired of being the excuse for someone's own irresponsibility and sheer stupidity. If they're such patriots then they should start to get acquainted with the concepts of capitalism and equal protection under the law.

Someone should go in that forum and break the news to them... that when they say "AMERICA" they are actually speaking spanish.

Anyway -they have a thread regarding ABC news and they are ranting because on the promo Diane Sawyer talks about "spanish is the second language of the U.S.' - this show airs on Columbus day, and I swear to God I am not making this up ---- one of the posters is having a fit and saying they should e-mail ABC and let them know that Columbus was Italian - not mexican, and if they don't know this basic fact how can they present the news ?

(not exact quotes - but the exact idea) - yes in their minds it is such a big bad conspiracy of mexicans against them that ABC news is now presenting Columbus as mexican. ----- So how , excactly, do you battle that level of crazy ?

1) this isn't true
2) why the animosity? I know you may be pissed at them, but we need to remain calm and civil.

my mom was telling me about some article where it said some police agencies are no longer willing to work with ICE because ICE agents pulled guns on undercover police officers and things like that...

[quote="thedream"][quote="Rene"]Well tell me why? There are various theories. Like Amerigo and such others but they can all be questionable right? And what animosity are you talking about. I respect others opinions including theirs and yours too. for the following reason is why I love America "freedom of speach" I may may not be wrong but I'm sure expressing my thoughts. Just keep in mind what of todays languages came from latin. Today in america on an everyday we speak many words that came from other countries. Because this is a country founded on and by immigrants.

Back then, those immigrants mowed the Indians and killed all that stood in there way. Andrew Jackson once beheaded Indians, according to a history book I read a few years ago. Anyway, that's the past, and I think the descendants of those immigrants should understand that their founders came here for the same reason we're here... To look for a better and free life.

According to this [ http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/...0_N.htm?csp=34 ], the term America did not come from Spanish but from a German cartographer. Let's give credit where credit is due .


BTW, yeah, it's expected for certain opposition groups to be very narrow-minded and ignorant. Let's not let them get to us; we're all a lot better than that.

I only have a two images to cover my response.
