Bob, he's making such a broad statement about the conditions in NY and how 'liberals' behave, I don't think it's my bias (and yes, I do have them) bringing his claims into question.
:opps: Pete... you kind of did... :banghead:

perhaps so but don't you think it could be true? if deblasio really wanted to help nyc then he probably wouldn't
be renting out his house for over $5k/month while he & his family live in the mayors mansion. nyc liberals ask
and take more then they are willing to give and NO that is not my opinion or bias.
I think that he should convert his house into a homeless shelter...
Pete,
I have to ask: how would YOU describe Bill DiBlasio? :dontknow:
Personally: I think that calling him a "Liberal"; seems rather polite...
I think he probably is a liberal. That's not what I was objecting to. I was objecting to the bigoted statement (and all the other similarly bigoted statements on this forum) that 'because he's a liberal, then ..... whatever'.
That is absurd. You can't make broad statements about a certain class of people (liberals, democrats, blacks, muslims, vegetarians) without expecting to be called out on it.
pete usually when i make statements like that i base it on a little known thing called facts. at any time i can back
up what i say but that would be pointless to you.
Oh by the way under the first amendment i am allowed to make those statements, under the first amendment
i am allowed to lie and the aclu would have to back me up.
Pete is the statement bigoted even if it is true?
No, what makes a statement bigoted is to say that a person belongs to a certain class of people and that certain class of people is defined by a certain set of characteristics.
If you want to say that in your opinion Blasio is running the city into the ground, that's one thing.
But it's another thing altogether to say that he and all liberals are selfish socialists looking for a handout, or are anti-gun, or are un-American or whatever, and that since (in your opinion) Blasio belongs to the 'liberal' class, then he and they are ..... fill in the blanks.
Most of your statements tend to be blanket condemnations of a certain class of people that you don't happen to like - that's bigoted.
pete why are you trying to interpret what i say instead of just reading it and taking on face value? it seems you are
much more bigoted or opinionated then you allow others to be.
deblasio is liberal, not an opinion, he rents his house out for top dollar and does not donate any of his properties
to allow the poor or homeless to stay in. as mayor of ny he did give a $100k grant to a woman who runs an organization that IS anti american and her family Does have ties to hamas and family members have been arrested for it. If you lived in ny you would know of many many other things he has done for personal gain and of little concern to the working class and he is also very hated by nypd and fdny as he has offended them many times. Please tell me of what i have said is bigoted, racist or opinionated in any way.
Al,
It might help if you listed some of the sources for your information... :dontknow:
Wow! Still not shutdown, way off topic, but still going! Amazing.:dontknow:
:shocked: I have a question:
If I take the headache that this thread has given me to a Doctor in Canada: is he going to slap me on the back, and hand me a couple of aspirins? :dontknow:
Or will he do what they do down here?
Draw blood for lab tests...
Call in another Doctor...
Who calls in a Specialist!
Who then orders a PET scan, CAT scan, termite scan, and a financial scan! :gaah:
After Six weeks of tests, and time off from work: they'll THEN give you a prescription for a pain-killer that your insurance won't pay for! :cus::cus::cus:
