WHAT?!? Mexico's military crossed our border???

[declansdad]

What on earth are you talking about?

This is only about that event. I can't help it if other posters bring stuff off tangent, conversations meander. That's the nature of a conversation. But I have been trying very hard to stay on topic. The topic is totally about the helicopter incident and why a bigger deal wasn't made over it. I wasn't the one offering reasons why the event was allowed to happen. In fact, I'm still hoping there will be a news conference about it and a nice big fat investigation. Tomorrow is Monday and I am optimistic.

I read something in the news and most posters have been on here telling me the reasons why it shouldn't be a big deal. So those reasons get a bit of discussion.

I do not think it's cool that you come in here and stomp all over the thread throwing the big 'P' word around. Not every idea that causes opinionated responses deserves the big 'P' word.

What is amazing is that you can link at what could be at best called a "border incident" with the state of education in your country. And just because you haven't called out a president whom you don't agree with doesn't make this any less political. You and other posters are calling on the government to respond and explain this event. Seems pretty "P" to me.

Ahhh, I see it now, some are trying to make my thread about ethnicity. It's not. I would have exactly the same reaction if this were going on up North. I'd also say the same would be true about other borders but we don't have any.

Isn't it true the the FAA is supposed to clear each and every single entity that shows up in our airspace without exception?

Well, the only exception being birds ect I suppose.

They are supposed to clear it up with the citizens?

WHAT? Where did that come from? This isn't even the guys job? I also learned that back in High School Civics.... the 3 branches, balance of power...


I am now confused by the confusion. This must be intentional.

Enter Beastie Boys: "Listen all y'all its Sabotage"... sigh... check out the video on You Tube if you're bored. Love the song!

Where is the link to this article? This elusive notorious article that is causing the mess? Some kind of proof that needs to be read closer.

The link to the article is Here.

But, still it sounds like some sort of joint covert exercize. Too much denial and downplay.

Well you would be wrong. Because border incursions by the Mexican military have been ongoing for the last several years.

No one is trying to sabotage you.

yeah

 

[declansdad]

Nothing like members of the Dis to make a mountain out of a molehill; and in this case a mountain with multiple peaks - the border, the UN, the educational system.

Ah good times!

And they all relate to the state of education in the US.

No, the incident has nothing to do with it, but the lack of knowledge is related.

Anyone else spectacularly stunned?

OK, I'm not going down these roads anymore. I'm only going to talk to people who are being serious. Some of you are and I m glad for it. Don't let the others scare you off the topic.... it's what they do but it's stifling, unhealthy and unproductive.

I gotta go blast some Soundgarden... I feel some "My Wave" coming on.... also on You Tube. There is goes, sweet!

How are they connected? Where does the Board of Education come into this dispute?

So only people who agree with you are serious. Good to know.

No, not at all. Only people who are not taking pot shots and trying to derail an otherwise important conversation are serious.

Ignoring the rest starting now.

Hmmm, another dose of My Wave I think. Yep, that's the ticket!

Ah good times!

Well you certainly seem to be enjoying yourself. If the topic is so boring and irrelevant, what are you wasting your time replying to it for?

 

[declansdad]

Give an explanation how the state of education and a border crossing incident is truly related and maybe people would take you serious.

I did that already, more than once. I'm not doing it again. If people choose to not take me seriously I don't see why I should be concerned with convincing them of otherwise. I don't need other people's approval to validate my ideas, thoughts or beliefs. I have way more self esteem than that.

I said truly related.

That's a good one.

Hold on, what was that old line that these questions remind me of?
If I can't dazzle them with my brilliance I'll baffle them with my... wait what was it again?

That is exactly what I was thinking.
