Except when they're having riots and looting.

If it wasn't for all the guns you guys are so eager to use, you'd have just as many. Though I agree the riots are unfortunate, and our government's response to them is inadequate.

It is extremely common because it makes good business sense. The city's investment is returned in the form of increased sales taxes, payroll taxes, land transfers, real-estate price raises, and etc. You could make a circular argument that the company is getting handouts on the backs of the local population. In the end the local population, usually, comes out better with these types of arrangements. Hence why they are very common.

If this isn't double talk I don't know what is. Warren Buffet is either a radical socialist or a selfish, antisocial, unaware a-hole. You can't have both so pick one. I would also like to point out that taxing the rich is not going to make the deficit problem go away. At best it would only cover 10% of our current running deficit.

There is a interesting debate about gun law reduction and deterrence to crime. At the moment the crime numbers are backing the gun toting Americans. :twisted:

That's one way to get your point across, make a legion of evil bots to troll the forums agreeing with everything you say. It is only one step away from world domination! I LOVE IT :twisted:

Hey, don't talk about trollbots like that. Me and my 52,000 processes find that offensive.
