25 here. Working as a Business Development/Finance guy in Oil and Gas in Houston. Business has been slow and I hate the politics here at work so I'm looking for a way out now. I would love to take a long sabbatical and just go backpacking in Europe. Oh well.

Guess that explains my right leaning views lol

"I don't mind, in fasct i love, debate.It's the fookin nutters who want to blow up wellwomen clinics etc cos god told them bad bastirts work there."

That's the thing though, I don't remember any recent terrorist with the exception of George Bush who has said God told me to do it.

Saying Allahu Akbar is not the same as God told me to do it. It's more a cry for validation when it comes out of the mouth of a terrorist.

Bin Laden the poster boy of terrorism even admitted to not being religiously motivated with his killing.

“They [the Muslim scholars] say that the killing of innocents is wrong and invalid, and for proof, they say that the Prophet forbade the killing of children and women, and that is true. It is valid and has been laid down by the Prophet in an authentic tradition…but this forbidding of killing children and innocents is not set in stone…if the disbelievers were to kill our children and women, then we should not feel ashamed to do the same to them, mainly to deter them from trying to kill our children and women again”

Osama Bin Laden – October 21, 2001, al-Jazeera interview quoted in ‘Messages to the World: The Statements of Osama Bin Laden’ by Bruce Lawrence


“Free people do not relinquish their security. This is contrary to Bush’s claim that we hate freedom. Let him tell us why we did not strike Sweden for example…your security is in your own hands. Each and every state that does not tamper with our security will have automatically assured its own security”

Osama Bin Laden (Videotape broadcast on al-Jazeera TV as reported in a BBC article 29 October 2004)

If you are a reasonable person can you digest these quotes and acknowledge that at least Bin Laden didn't blow up the twin towers because God told him so?

Believe it or not, Texas is slowly starting to turn back into a liberal state. You can use the poor candidates argument here but Hillary has won in all 4 major cities in Texas in November (Houston, Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio). Don't think we are as right wing as people think.

You should be banned for that. Possibly just from entering the USA.

Brightdave is killin' it hahaha

Question about bans: With this Brexit thing, are y'all still allowed to go into continental Europe or will there be an application process for this?

Largely depends on the UK’s stance on migration. If the UK wish to have “stronger” boarder controls for EU migrants, the EU will reciprocate.

Hopefully there will be some benevolence from the EU towards Ireland, as both North and South (both for trade and the peace process) rely on the common travel area.
