  • In the 18 century the Term "Well Regulated" would translate to being "Well Armed" not "Government Controled". He is correct, he's not only "No Scholar", he's also dead wrong again!

    As to the 14th Amed funny the ONLY thing he failed to address was the ONLY thing TEA Partiers object to was the poorly written section 1 clause which unintentionally allows ANYONE to Fly into the US, give birth and the child is now a citizen. The forefathers never imagined flying or illegaly jumping a fence.

  • "In the 18 century the Term "Well Regulated" would translate to being "Well Armed" not "Gov't Controled"."

    @TAMPADOC64 , I just want to wrap my loving regulations around you, but i'm sure you'd like me to keep a regulation's-length distance, us not knowing one another and all.

    As to your 14th amendment concern, i'm just glad that foreigners aren't allowed to bring regulations on board with them. who-ee wouldn't that put the whole nation up-in-regulations.

  • The Boston Tea Party was actually caused by the British LOWERING taxes in order to compete with the black market,which was selling tea at prices so low that nearly everyone in the colonies bought their tea from the black market.

    And yes I know that has nothing to do with the video.

    And y

  • Logic & fact are wonderful things & provide a solid foundation upon which to stand. All else is just "talkin trash". Thanks for keeping it real...as always.

  • "Though to be fair, there are just as many Democrats who aren't qualified to interpret the Constitution as there are Tea Partiers and Republicans."

    You can find Democrats alleging the demonstrable falsehood that the Constitution is based on the Bible?

    No one gets to criticize "big government" without opposing laws against abortion rights and same-sex marriage. Prohibitions on those are as much "big government" as anything.

  • By and large the Tea Party is very pro Constitution, as is the 11th Circuit that found the ObamaCare’s Individual Mandate Unconstitutional.

  • Equal opportunity racists. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

  • Who is this clown - er, Jester? He certainly looks like he sounds. Reasonableness, thought, and consistency? Well, he's consistently wrong but there's nothing I would call thoughtful or reasoned in this diatribe. The only thing that's obvious is that he likes to hear himself talk. He speaks like a clueless academic.

    He should have heeded Abe Lincoln's advice. "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt."

  • Gay hating, bible thumping, inbreeders, well uneducated idiots, and greedy smart people tricking them yeah that is the Tea Party.

  • You're a fag!

  • Your right you're no scholar. You make a lot of good videos but this is not one of your stronger ones.

  • Our government was created due to three things. Money... land.. people. The government of today is so large due to so many voices that have to be heard. To protect those voices, government must step in. Ppl r complaining because of money. Money being spent .. money They don't have. Money money ...oh and money.

  • i agree with you 

  • Personally I see one thing in the tea party movement, limited govt control. Which whether you agree with it or not is what we were founded on. Politicians represent no one but themselves these days. The problem I have with the far left is that they tend to generalize groups based on a few radicals that the media shows. I realize the YouTube community leans pretty far left so I will probably be attacked by some of you...but I ask you to see my views as you tell others to, with an open mind.

  • @gmenfan48 Not when certain people in the government are actually trying to help.

  • You should START with your closing thoughts so that people can see the consideration and openness behind your points, rather than ending with them so many people who stop midway through don't see this as just partisan politics full of strawman arguments and "reverse side" hypocrisy/selective reading.

  • "No free man shall be disbarred the use of arms." Thomas Jefferson

    "Americans have the right and advantage of being armed." James Madison the man who wrote the Bill of Rights which includes that embarrassing 2nd Amendement. If people who believe in upholding the Constitution are labeled extremists, I guess those Founding Fathers were pretty extreme, too.

  • The military and police can be funded by having a 10% national sales tax IN LIEU OF an income tax.

    SCOTUS said the right to keep and bear arms is an INDIVIDUAL right. The cases are Heller vs. DC and McCormack vs. Chicago.

    Eliminating the 17th Amendment will REMOVE the special interest and corporate money. Senators will not have to run a campaign for election. They will be more responsibe to the needs of their state and less able to be elected by lobbyists.

  • Dear video poster;

    How dare you actually look at the truth, be non selective with the facts, and seek the good of ALL citizens, rather than that of the few you think you're a part of.

    As for the racism, you can't assume that picking on that amendment is the full extent of it, eh?

  • You don't have to be a scholar or supreme court justice to understand the Constitution. You just have to learn some history to understand reasons for the articles and amendments and the results they've had on the nation. Seems the tea party understands it a whole lot better than you. Maybe learning the reason for their points of view would be more enlightening the being scared of them. Changing the constitution is much different from ignoring it.

  • Article 1 section 3 states the Senate should be elected by the legislators of the states. Why? Because they represent the states. The Representatives are elected by the people. Why? They represent the people. The 17th amendment (1913) changed the elections of Senators from states legislators to the people. Why? State party bickering prevented the appointment of some senators and was holding up the government. Is this good or bad?

  • Just to let you know something, really quick, a constitution is supposed to be more than just words on paper. It's a fundamental ideology that was instituted by our founding fathers and is carried on as a sense of foundation for rights and liberty. Study. American. History.

  • the reason why they wanna repeal 16th amendment is because they dont tell you where they spend the income tax on. thats taxation without representation. thats why we had a american revolution. that and also high taxes which we are having. the middle class get taxed around 35% and the higher class get taxed nearly half while the poor dont get taxed much

  • I found something interesting about the second amendment, thought. District of Columbia vs. Heller gave CITIZENS right to keep and bear arms, unconnected to militia (military) for lawful purposes.

  • @guydudeasian: "District of Columbia vs. Heller gave CITIZENS right to keep and bear arms..."

    Not quite, because SCOTUS in Heller reaffirmed those rights under previous well settled law. Mr. Craven, however, likes to manipulate facts to suit his political agenda.

    In short question everything Craven purports, especially following his antics at the AGU Fall Meeting last December. ...After all the man doesn’t wear a Jester cap without purpose, even though extreme foolishness is self-evident.

  • @donroche I dunno man. Having General Washington in command, and with foreign help to train/lead said militias in heavy combat (e.g. Lafayette) seems to have made them fairly well regulated and disciplined.

    I am pro-gun, mind, but historical inaccuracy is a pet peeve of mine. Implying that our forefathers won by being a rag-tag militia really distorts things. They tried their damnedest to be *less* rag-tag and more organized, so they could face the British (and their Hessian mercs).

  • 3:30 to 3:40 wow, nice

  • The income tax does not pay for any of the things you said. It pays for the interest that our government has racked up. The high way system is paid with gasoline tax. It is a indirect tax witch is permitted under the constitution. Meaning I don't have to pay for gas tax unless i drive a vehicle. I don't have to drive a vehicle. Education is payed with property tax. The military is paid with corporate tax and now China ha. Study the income tax a little more you will find how stupid it is.

  • First i have to say that i agree, not everyone should have weapons i think just like a car i think you should have to get a license like in my country.

    But you miss understand the amendment. The militia should have a way to defend the people, but the people should have a right to defend them self.

    I recommend you watch Penn and tellers bullshit for that one.

    I still agree with you though. In addition i never understood why Americans are so fixed on the constitution.

  • @mrfuzzer1 We are not fixed on the constitution we are fixed on the right to be a free individual. The Constitution is just a written acknowledgment of that.

  • by the way militia back in the day meant ordinary people so in a way everyone has a right to bear arms

  • @FearOps But who's to interpret that?

  • @madjimms theres no need to interpret that or anything its what it is. everyone that could carry a gun shoot &walk could be in the militia back in the day and if people take away our rights one day when something happenes we cant do anything about it. for some reason if we get invaded ordinary people should be able to defend against the invaders. any one that knows 18th century american history would see this you dont need to interpret anything we have the right to bear arms period

  • @FearOps People in the 18th century also understood death & war much better than people do now.... The average citizen wouldn't know what the fuck to do in a Marshall law situation (or something similar)

  • This is how long ago I nailed Al Gores mom.

  • loloioi; 1st I will forgive your sorry grammar. It is to be expected. But your lack of logic is inexcusable. Yes, I did watch the full video, did you? He is using really twisted logic to claim that those who wish to amend the constitution (provisions for which are contained in the document itself) are, in effect, attacking the constitution. Further, his attack on the 2nd amendment to the constitution (ratified with the full support of its framers) is nonsensical in its own right.

  • I have to say it's stupid of how people refer to republicans for information. Well someone has to hit an ironing board on them because the information that republicans give are fake, corrupt, manipulative and hateful. it's funny how we see people like republicans quote other republicans who are flat out lying all the time(dont get me wrong, democrats do it too. I'm on neither side). to these right wingtards, are u going to keep repeating bullshit that you do not even understand?

  • 23 ppl with twisted minds

  • Its because the Tea Partiers are nothing but the same old social conservatives under the guise as Constitutionalists/Libertarian­s who only started to care about the Constitution and holding the Government responsible once a Democrat got into office...

  • Deadlyvirus; well, that's all good except for the fact that there actually is a recording of him saying this. I'll be back with a link when I get a few minutes to track it down, if it's not verbatim, it's pretty close though.

  • "Lets atleast have the integrity to be equal oppotiunity racists" hahaha! love it!

  • "Basically, it goes like this. As a scientist you have to decide at some point that enough is enough. You have to put your scientific commitment to the discipline of doubt aside and “blow past” your boundaries. Say what you feel, not what you can prove. " - Greg Craven, AGU Conf.

    Greg, if that is your take on science, you need to turn in you credentials as a scientist. A scientist sets his beliefs aside and follows the data. Once that objectivity is breached, it's no longer science.

  • @froddoislost Unsurprisingly that was copied and pasted straight from WUWT and going to the original article, written underneath that quote was this:

    "[ Steve Mosher: Mr. Craven has complained that this is not a direct quote of what he said. It is not a direct quote, it is,as the text indicates, a synopsis of my interpretation of his argument. ]"

    So that's not what Greg actually said, it's what a 'skeptic' is saying Greg said. I don't know what he actually said but it wasn't that.

  • "There are so few Republican scientists, he explained, because Republicans are irrational." - Craven, AGU Conf.

    Seriously; this is how the Holocaust actually began . . . with comments like these against people with whom those in power disagreed. It's right there in the old newspapers and editorials of the day.

    When you begin with the premise that people who disagree are too irrational to understand and you must force them into agreement, violence always follows.

    You should STOP THIS HATE!!!

  • But keep on posting, even the most simple minded should be shown this. It exposes the left-wing nut- job viewpoint very candidly. 

  • Your illogical arguments against the Tea Party don't make even the slightest sense when looked at in full context and discussion.

    The right of the people (not right of the militia members!) to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Even when you read the first part, it doesn't change the meaning of the second part.

    Further; I'm pretty sure nobody has interpreted it to mean "use them as they please". A crime is a crime, whether by gun, by knife or by stealth in the night.

    U = dumb.

  • @froddoislost your ideology is pathetic. You're saying bullshit when you can't even understand his point of view. He is saying how twisted the words are coming from these groups.

    Did you even watch the whole video. He didn't only make one comment. Froddoislost= the most dumbest person in the world besides george bush. U=Dumb? seriously that is lame. Oh you're even saying illogical too. you're constantly denying with pathetic points without any certainty. the right name for you is moron

  • This is the worst kind of straw man argument tripe I've heard in a while. You would get smoked in open debate.

    The Constitution has provisions for amendment. Proposing amendment to or repeal of amendments to the Constitution is not an attack on it!!!

    14 amendment original intent; rebuttal of Dread Scot; states can no longer discriminate against blacks because they are black, but must recognize their rights. Activist court interpretation; anybody who sneaks in is entitled to the same.

  • is it wonderingmind or wanderingmind? The self-proclaimed "Wonderment" so obviously and consistently disregards rational discourse and logic its obvious he has a biased axe to grind.  After stealing Pascal's Wager, applying it to global warming and claiming it as his own invention the real wonderment is why anyone listens to this aptly dressed court jester.

  • The constitution they refer to is the original bill of rights, you should know that and stop twisting your words to sound like Rachel Maddow!

  • all them big words and logic and all your...facts, teh who needs em

  • The constitution is an out dated document, the tea baggers can't read so how do they know what is in it

  • The final statement sums up a wonderful balance of what I value most: compassion and objective truth.

    One thing I'd love from your videos is citing sources. I admit I haven't researched the Tea Party too much myself, but can you tell us exactly when and where they stated disdain for those amendments as a collective group?

  • you are so right... especially your closing statement. too many of us are only concerned with our own profit and loss and fail to consider the true impact of what we support. the problem is that holistic view requires much understanding and understanding requires much study and most people skip that part and move straight to having an opinion. opinions without deep study and meditation is worthless and virtually always wrong.

  • Tea Party taken over by the Republicans not the other way around. There is no left or right paradigm no Democrats or Republicans look into this what could it hurt. Gain knowledge just in case something happens. The past tells us that those who don't prepare themselves will fall. Search infowars.com

  • He said the "N" word!!! : O

  • Constitution is very simple for all to understand.

    Amendments can be repealed.

    2nd Amendment: There was never an argument of how to interpret it until Blacks had guns in the South. YOU ARE WRONG.

  • In the hope that others will use this information in confronting threats to the United States. Like it or not, when people are demanding change based on their belief in what our constitution means, let's hope they have a position to fall back on. Right now I see a large group of enthusiast willing to drive the bus over a cliff expecting it to fly.

  • So by constitutionally amending the constitution one is against it? What about all the existing amendments? The right of the people, if one finds this hard to understand that one should not be permited a gun and should be supervised in all areas. If youare unable to seperate the issues from nonissues you are unfit to comment. When did criminal become a race? 16th amandment, a change shouldn't be undone if found to be a problem, isn't that what amendments are for?

  • There's another interpretation of the second amendment that says what it really means is that since you need a militia to protect the country, you need to allow the civilian population to be armed to protect themselves from the militia, not so you can have armed people to make up the militia.

  • @TheMessianicManic No, the second amendment calls for the arming of citizens so with the threat of invasion the people can defend themselves, because the American Revolution was won by militias, not a standing army.

  • Well said, as usual, but I can't agree with many of the statements you've made. Income tax truly is theft from the people. Imo, it goes toward paying the federal reserve bankers their chosen interest rate for our fiat currency, and little else. I'll have to look it up in my own copy of the Constitution, but Judge Andrew Napolitano is an expert on it and he says often how it says it is the people's right to bear arms and overthrow a govt that has become tyrannical. Close to unsubbing.

  • look at the conversation you've started Wonderingmind you are certainly awesome for this :o)

  • Are you saying the 2nd Amendment, ratified in 1791, refers to the National Guard, which was created by an act of Congress in 1903? Wow you're brilliant.

  • @TheBear1488 RIGHT ON!!

  • Nice propaganda. Tea partiers are angry and want to tear down the object of our anger, i.e. the Constitution? You make no sense in that respect. But I will give you credit for admitting that any of us can be wrong, assuming it is not just a disarming technique like the one we used in debate club. If you truly believe that, and the rest of us do too, then there may be hope.

  • When the government violates the Constitution they Nullify their own authority. And thanks to BOTH party's they accomplished that. Also why would democrats scream and moan over the patriot act THEN extend it when they could have ended it. These are 2 wings on the same bird.

  • And since the 16th amendment could only exist based on the existence of the 14th, which was illegally passed, it is invalid too. And you got one thing right. The federal govt DOES waste alot. I don't mind funding services as long as I get what I pay for. And it is a FACT that government is the LEAST efficient way to deliver services, except for maybe the military where I see we agree. Anti-16th = Anti-military? We HAD an Army BEFORE the 16th. And I was in the military, unlike you I would guess.

  • And since you are on the 14th amendment... the government routinely ignores this amendment and steals assets from suspects BEFORE they are tried and convicted. So much for equal protection. And Jefferson, who WROTE the Constitution, said that we have a DUTY to throw off bad government. But you think that is UNpatriotic? Sorry, but that is the HEIGHT of patriotism, to stand up to tyrants at risk of your life, honor and wealth. And way to play the race card. Standard liberal tactic. Lame try.

  • and the 2nd amendment says "shall not be INFRINGED" not "abridged", important distinction. Have you ever read a STATE constitution? Many states, including mine REQUIRE involuntary service of ALL able bodied male adults IN THE STATE MILITIA at the request of the governor. The citizens of a state ARE it's militia, not just the federally co-opted National Guard. And National defense requires more than a hunting rifle or a shotgun. In modern warfare, machine guns, et al, are required to be effective

  • The FACT is that the 14th amendment was never ratified and the congressional record explicitly explains this, as members from 11 states who were prevented by military force from attending the vote witnessed into the record, yet it was passed ANYWAY WITHOUT a legal 3/4 majority. And the 16th amendment was passed only because the 14th was passed, being dependent on the provisions of that amendment. So YES, we disapprove of UNCONSTITUTIONALLY passed amendments. There is no contradiction. Nice try.

  • @petertrast You Sir are correct. Thumbs up.

  • @TheBear1488 I dont hav etime to watch videos right now Im studying for an exam. Just ask your question and Ill answer it.

    "Well by God the PUBLIC didn't pay for it. "

    Yeah and Im going to pay back the public.

  • Great video as usual. :)

    The tea party scares me. I only hope that they're too pathetic and far-out-there to be taken very seriously by the majority.

  • Oh for a real education watch the documentary of "Innocents Betrayed" then look at the laws YOUR party writes, passes (without reading), and endorses.  You people need to be ran out of the country. BTW I'm not a republican or democrat BOTH parties have failed America equally, by IGNORANCE.

  • We are a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC. There ARE differences LEARN them.

    Democracies are doomed for failure by their OWN policies, our founding fathers KNEW this 200 years ago. History shows it time and time again. But I can't expect you to know anything about America, you just came to take advantage of it.

  • @TheBear1488 "But I can't expect you to know anything about America, you just came to take advantage of it." Im a proud american citizen. You are telling me what I shouldnt dare to do. Dont you dare tell me that I came here to take advantage of it.

    I am becoming a doctor so I can save the lives of poor people in this country. Im not going to drive fancy cars or live in a big house. I want to give back to the country that gave me so much

  • @TheBear1488 "We are a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC. " And China is a "people's republic". If there are differences between them then there is a difference between "socialism" and "NATIONAL socialism"

    Also you havent answered my question: do the poor deserve an education or is the statue of liberty wrong when it says we have to take care of the poor?

    Why wont you answer that question? You understand what america stands for better than me, so answer it.

  • @truthofevolution the policies of BO are exactly what the National Socialists (fascism) are. Taking over the auto, medical, banking, and industrial rescources.

    Therefore yes your ARE the Nazi party. I'm finished with this. You are what you are even if you're in denial.

  • @TheBear1488 no dude, if he didnt take over the auto and banking sectors tens of millions of americans would have lost their jobs and we would have been in a second great depression. Right now, the auto industry and banking industry are paying BACK the tax payer, so that its not a permanent take over.

    Also Obama made preexisting conditions illegal so that little children dont die. Thats socialism. So is medicare and Social security.

  • @TheBear1488 your points make no sense. How can you give poor poeple opportunity without giving them money? And Im not a freeloader, Im paying back the country when I become a doctor by donating most of my money. Im going to live in a small home. Nothing fancy. 

  • @truthofevolution My points are valid. It's called a JOB not a handout. And as far as you "I'll be making hundreds of thousands of dollars" giving it all back? Yeah...right.

    Once again you didn't look into the policies or practices of your "party". Got to love the "we have to pass the bill to see whats in it" How about the novel idea of READING IT? The banking crisis was caused by the Clinton admin. The manufacturing base leaving the country was as well. And you didn't watch the film.

  • @TheBear1488 no no we are talking about too many things at once. I dont even undrestand your position completely. Do you think that poor children deserve an education? Thtas not clear to me. A yes or no answer would suffice.

  • @TheBear1488 "And as far as you "I'll be making hundreds of thousands of dollars" giving it all back? Yeah...right" are you saying Im a liar? I didnt say I would give it all back, but Im going to give a lot of it back.

  • @TheBear1488 I want enough money for simple food, modest shelther and a mode of transportation. I dnot want a big house or ten cars.

  • @TheBear1488 " My points are valid. It's called a JOB not a handout. " you havent answered my question, Im not talking about a job, Im talking about an education. Does a poor child deserve an education? If he doesnt, he can never become a doctor or lawyer(you need a degree for that), so how is that giving him an equal opportunity if he never has the opportunity to become a doctor and lawyer since he is poor?

  • @truthofevolution I did answer it. I held a job through high school, and 2 jobs through college. You couldn't do the same? I've never got public assistance for ANYTHING. Everything I have I WORKED for. YOU however lived off others for a free ride in America. You never answered MY questions, and I know why. You can't because you have no answer. Education is NOT a right, it's an equal opportunity , you could have worked your way but you didn't....you were too busy living off others.

  • @TheBear1488 wait the problem with you is you think you have worked harder than I have. You havent. I held a job in highschool and college.

    Are you telling me you went to private high school and paid for it with money you earned?

    What about elementary school and middle school. Do you want a kid to work through that too? Thats child labor.

  • @truthofevolution Yes I did pay for my own education. I've been employed since I was 12. Answer my other questions and stop beating the dead horse. Being trained in medicine you should know that parasites or leeches eventually kill their host. Now apply that wisdom to social principals. I grew up poor and paid my own way, without help. Today I'm retired at 50 and owe nothing. I am set for life. Now watch the film then answer me why you support your beliefs and democrat policy.

  • @TheBear1488 no thats not an answer to my question because private school costs 20,000 to 40,000. I find it unbelievable that as a 12 year old you earned 20-40 grand a year.

    Yes but there is one difference- as a child I was a parasite, as an adult I am a host. That is every penny that I took from society as a 8 year old child (you may be surprised that elementary school costs money) I will pay back as an adult doctor earning hundreds of thousands a year. And I contribute to society by healing

  • @TheBear1488 8 year olds go to school are you saying that they need to pay for their education too?

  • @TheBear1488 " Education is NOT a right, it's an equal opportunity , you could have worked your way but you didn't....you were too busy living off others."

    Why do you find the need to lie so much? If you asked me I could have told you I held jobs in highschool and college. Instead you just make shit up. And then you insult me.

    The same society that thinks you are a patriot thinks that I am really intelligent. Why dont you show some decency, and Ill show you some.

  • @TheBear1488 "I've never got public assistance for ANYTHING. Everything I have I WORKED for." So you never went to a public highschool, or a public middle school or a public elementary school and you paid for everything including elementary school by working two jobs?

  • @truthofevolution I know I've hit a nerve with you because of your knee jerk reactions. You 'entitlement" mentality is typical. Really private education isn't that expensive. You sir are a liar, without an opinion that hasn't been given to you like everything else in your life. You continue to NOT answer my question, because you CAN'T. Case closed. Typical liberal, your more of a victim by your "public" education. Independent thought you can't grasp.

  • @TheBear1488 Dude, heres the deal: you have no decency. You keep insulting me. And then you brag about hitting a nerve. I mean I dont know what to say to that, you are bragging about hurting someone's feeling who is half your age.

    Secondly, you didnt hit a nerve because contrary to what you might believe- it takes lots of intelligence and hard work to get where I am. People everywhere have shown respect to me. They respect my intelligence. Just like they respect your patriotism.

  • @TheBear1488 the same people who respect your patriotism respect my intelligence. You dont know what it takes to get into medical school, how hard it is. So just like you spit on my intelligence I can spit on your patriotism. But Im not giong to do that because my mother taught me decency in front of a veteran. You need to learn to do the same.

    Secondly, Im not answering your questions because your answers are evasive. Ill come to them as soon as you finish.

  • @TheBear1488 " Really private education isn't that expensive. " You provide no numbers so your claim prompts questions. Did you go to private school? You never said that you did. So the question is prompted. What did your private education cost you? And you didnt work as a 8 year old. Doesnt that mean you didnt pay for that cost and that someone else did?

  • @truthofevolution Well by God the PUBLIC didn't pay for it. I did answer you and once again you're beating a dead horse. Answer me and you might get respect back. You refuse to answer me because you can't. Fret away, go stomp and cry, do whatever leeches like you do. I'm done with your ignorance and your garbage in garbage out mentality.

  • @TheBear1488 dude you didnt answer me: did you go to private or public school and how much did it cost you?

    " Fret away, go stomp and cry, do whatever leeches like you do." Dude YOU insulted ME. Ive been showing you respect. And youre asking me to earn it instead of being a decent human being. What have you done to earn my respect?

    I can really hurt you, but I choose not to. Its time for you to behave like an adult not a whiny little brat and stop with the silly name calling.

  • @TheBear1488 People respect my intelligence because it takes a lot of hard work to be a doctor. The fact that you cant respect that shows that you dont understand what it means to be a doctor.

    You are a liar, there is no way you went to private school as a 8 year old and paid of thousands of dollars. You are the biggest hypocritical leech I know.

    You also dont answer my questions. You are evasive and pretend that you do.

  • @TheBear1488 by the way, I dont know a single poor person that paid every single penny through an expensive private college and medical school. Thtas just impossible. The fact that you keep calling me a leech over and over just shows that you dont know anything about the subject you are discussing.

  • @truthofevolution The whole point is, YOU didn't have to leech YOU could have provided your OWN way but you made a choice NOT to. I'm not going to respond to you anymore because you're hopeless. You back fascism, and work against the very freedoms and liberty that fed you. I however fought for them, lost my son for them, lost my brother for them. I'm finished with you because you are a simple minded fool and there's no light for you to see.

  • @TheBear1488 fine man leave. But once again you call me a simple minded fool. Learn to respect someone who has had a better education than you did. I can easily insult your patriotism even though you lost a brother and a son. That would be a dick move on my part. So you should respect my intelligence. Thats your dick move.

    Secondly, you dont understand the definition of fascism.

    Thridly, I worked in highschool and college and Im working now so stop lying.

  • @truthofevolution once again you assume things you know nothing about. Yes I paid for my own education, through private school. And paid for an education at college (at a very elite college) I made my own way through life, you did not. If you did work while living off public assistance you have defrauded the public assistance program and that is a crime. Fascism are the very polices you endorse by your political affiliation. Anything else you want to confess? Case closed...goodbye.

  • @TheBear1488 you assumed I didnt work either. "If you did work while living off public assistance you have defrauded the public assistance program and that is a crime" No its not. You can go to public school and have a job. I infact wrote about it in my college app and didnt get arrested. Obviously youre an idiot and dont know shit.

    My scholarships for medschool and college are private scholarships. they dont affect the tax payer.

  • @TheBear1488 yes i do want to say one more thing: learn how to duck so you dont get shot 15 times. Apparently people in your family arent good at ducking.

  • @TheBear1488 no you idiot. Obamacare saves newborn children from dying. YOU dont care if those children die so YOU are a fascist.

  • @truthofevolution actually no...it's not that we don't care...Obama care also pays for kids to die...but we won't get into that. If you truly believe that anyone want's babies to die you are sadly mistaken. Just because some good can come out of something doesn't mean that it's the right thing to do...drug money has saved children from dying...doesn't mean that it should come from drugs. truth is, no matter what program we have we won't be able to save everyone...obama care will make it worse.

  • @Graffight hi I wasnt responding to a calm person like you. You are obviously intelligent. I was responding to someone who called me a fascist and a socialist and an idiot and scum that needs to be run out of the country.

  • @truthofevolution I appreciate that :o) don't feed into the anger with more of it...it only makes things worse.

  • @Graffight if you read back the comments I warned him multiple times. I said I was being respectful and so should he, and he kept ignoring me and saying something like "i obviously hit a nerve, go whine or cry or whatever it is that you leeches do"

    Im a leech apparently because I got a public education because I was poor. He thinks he is winning. So I am reluctantly putting him in his place.

  • @Graffight the world health organization tells me that universal care is cheaper and leads to better results than american care. Im not saying that these are causally related, but I havent seen evidence that universal healthcare makes the situation worse overall.

  • @truthofevolution awww thought you has schoolwork to do and couldn't watch a film. Lie much? Oh that's right you're a liberal, it's a requirement. The only reason you didn't get arrested is because it wasn't reported. And if you review the conversation you started the disrespectful comments. Children these days.....it's apparent you were neglected in your upbringing.

  • @TheBear1488 no it takes two minutes to comment and how many hours to watch a movie.

    No you need to really read the conversation. Those disrespectful comments were intended towards someone else who said that socialists like me were scum. I was giving him a taste of his own medicine.

    When you started the conversation, I said those words werent meant to you and I was being respectful. I warned you multiple times and you ignored me. You told me to cry like a leech remember? I warned you.

  • @truthofevolution I find you entertaining. There's nothing that comes from your mouth that bothers me, but it seems I can really push you to being irrational.

    The jokes on you kid. And I may have started poor but I made something better of myself without growing up exploiting welfare. I know this bothers you deeply. But here's something for you to think about.  The so called hundreds of thousands of dollars a year you will make....I have in my checking account alone every week. Yawn.

  • @TheBear1488 no man. Im not being bothered into being irrational, I told you: everyone respects my success. Meanwhile, other people have been telling you to calm down. Even a conservative is telling me youre insane and that i shouldnt feed your insanity.

    I wasnt on welfare idiot. I went to a public high school like most americans. Yeah but you didnt go to medschool. Thtas how much docs make. Hundreds of thousands. Are you competing with doctors? Whos the irrational one?

  • @TheBear1488 doctors make hundreds of thousands of dollars. Medical school is also one of the most competitve programs in the world. The dual degree program I am in is much more competitive than that. If I wanted to make money I would have gone to business school. But I went into medical school because I wanted to help people. And youre comparing our salaries? Pathetic dude.

    Also it doesnt matter how much money you have, you obviously didnt take good care of your kid.

  • @truthofevolution Wow at first I thought you were an idiot to, now you just confirmed it. TheBear1488 I respect you, you're making this guy look like a jerk, he has to resort to trying to hurt you by dishonoring your sacrifices to a country he abused.

    You liberals really are pieces of shit.

  • @t3chk4 good job man its ok to dishonor a medical student's intelligence by calling him scum over and over when I said respectfully to stop multiple times. You guys are a bunch of hypocrites who cant handle a taste of your own medicine.

    By the way nazi, when you end obamacare children will die. You happy about that? A guy like you would be ecstatic about that

  • @truthofevolution what a load of horseshit. What fucking honor do you deserve?

    NONE. You try to dishonor people who did something for the very country you took advantage of, and gave nothing to. You really are SCUM. Oh and you're part of the Nazi party dumbass, democrats (socialists) support the policy of fascism. I watched that movie TheBear1488 it's an eye opener!

  • @t3chk4 dude DOCTOR. Do you have an idea of what that word means? That mean was shot 15 times and who saved his life? A doctor did. Does he have respect for that profession? No he called me scum ten times in this conversation.

    I gave nothing to it? Do you not read. Im going to save the lives of americans for free. And Im also going to donate for every penny I took.

    I only disrespected his service after warning him multiple times.

  • @truthofevolution No it was a Navy corpsman that saved me, NOT a doctor.

    I was shot that many times, not all at once. And ducking wasn't an option I was too busy saving the lives of others. As far as my son, hard to avoid explosions. My brother might have been able to duck, I don't know I was not there. No one here wants to kill children, but the healthcare bill is a failure, and that 80% of Americans didn't want it says something. What about democracy on that, ignore the will of 80%?

  • @TheBear1488 similarly, I didnt come here on welfare. I came here as an immigrant, my parents worked hard. I worked hard. I went to an ivy league school and got into one of the most competitve programs. Indians are really good at math, and my parents were trying to get me to be an engineer so I can have money, but I chose to go into medicine, so I can save lives of soldiers like you and innocent children and pay back every penny of the education and then some.

  • @truthofevolution Well who knows maybe you will be a good doctor one day, but your politics are really....distorted, and I'm being kind. Having a government that doesn't represent the will of the people (and the majority I might also add) is not doing it's job. BOTH parties have failed the American people extremely bad. Let's just say we agree to disagree. I find it disturbing when a government is out of control and ignores the very LAWS we gave them to abide by. We ALLOW them to govern.

  • @TheBear1488 since you are being kind, let me say I honor and respect your service. Im really sorry I said those things. Really really sorry. My mom would have smacked me. She wouldnt have cared what you said. Plus you are older than me, I shouldnt disrespect your experience.

  • @TheBear1488 we both care about this country. THIS is the conversation we should have had. I respect your position. But the reason I disagree on obamacare is that the medical profession disagrees. Most doctors think that universal care is a good idea. Also the world health organization did a scientific study showing that healthcare in single payer systems (eg europe) is not only cheaper but leads to better outcomes.

    Those are my reasons. Im not disagreeing w/ u because I hate this country.

  • @TheBear1488 "I find it disturbing when a government is out of control and ignores the very LAWS we gave them to abide by. We ALLOW them to govern." Of course I completely agree. I think lots of smear merchants have spread lies about Obamacare. The actual bill has LOTS of flaws. But over all it saves the lives of tens of thousands of innocent babies and children every year. I think thats worth it. You didnt think twice about saving the lives of others. You of all people would understand

  • @TheBear1488 by the way, you are truly a great, great man. Nothing I have done or will do can come close to what you have done. You are indeed a much better person than me. And I dont feel bad saying that. It is the truth.

  • @TheBear1488 for the first time you made a comment post without an sneering insult. Thank you. Im sorry for your loss. I wish we could have had an intelligent conversation because we are intelligent people. I dont need to prove to you that I am intelligent just like you dont need to prove to me that you are brave.

    I volunteer at the veteran's affairs clinic right next to my hospital by the way. Dont think I dont respect the lives of soldiers or their sacrifices.

  • @TheBear1488 I taught harlem children for free because they were poor. Every single kid I taught was a trouble maker and every single one of them passed by the time I finished. 7 kids total.

    I graduated with only 50 grand in debt btw. I said most kids had 200,000 remember? Thats how badly my medical school wanted me.

    Please dont insult my intelligence. And Im sorry for insulting your sacrifice. But as someone twice my age, you should really know not to behave like that. Seriously.

  • @t3chk4 "Oh and you're part of the Nazi party dumbass, democrats (socialists) support the policy of fascism" No they dont. You do. I gave you an article showing how obama care saves the lives of children Google "Sebelius to Insurers: Cover Children's Pre-Existing Conditions" You will see a news article showing that obamacare saves lives and you are killing them by removing it.

    So you want to kill children. So that makes you a nazi.

  • @t3chk4 "to a country he abused.

    You liberals really are pieces of shit."

    You fucking moron why would I study to be a doctor if I wanted to abuse the country and not help it. And speaking of pieces of shit. Read the conversation. How many times did I tell him to be decent? How many times did i tell him that I was being decent and he wasnt?

    You guys are allowed to insult whomever you want, but when I insult you, then theres a problem.

  • @t3chk4 do you respect the service of gay soldiers or is that not good enough for you?

  • @TheBear1488 Im just giving you a taste of your own medicine. I warned you calmly multiple times and you gloated about it: you thought you hurt my feelings. Remember you said this "" Fret away, go stomp and cry, do whatever leeches like you do."

    And I responded with "Ive been showing you respect. And youre asking me to earn it instead of being a decent human being." You ignored that.

    The truth is, youre insane.

  • @TheBear1488 are you serious dude, I asked you multiple times to stay calm and you said I had to earn your respect and that you werent giving it to me. Remember saying that? You called me scum. Remember? You called me a leech. Remember?

    And youre saying my upbringing is neglected. haha. The irony.

  • @TheBear1488 you called a dual doctorate degree student an idiot multiple times. Remember? And youre saying that Im the one with the neglected upbringing. You dont deserve respect for your service, if I dont deserve respect for my education.

    My parents didnt neglect anything for me, but you neglected to teach your son to duck.

    If that hurts your feelings go cry somewhere like you leeches do. And earn my respect.

  • @truthofevolution I can't see how it leads to better results...all of the best doctors, the most state of the art health care available in the world is here In the US. Under this healthcare system...I agree that it needs reformed, i don't think it's good as it is now....i think the health insurance industry is a bad thing as it is right now. But i don't think moving to a free system will make it better...nothing is free, and we risk ruining a system that has given us so much.

  • @Graffight you are right it doesnt lead to better results but hopefully it will stop him from being a piece of shit to other liberals.

  • @Graffight the best doctors are here you are correct, but they serve the richest people. Middle class americans cant afford care so they end up dying. What we need is a balance. Thats why I like the public option. That makes healthcare affordable for the middle class. But competition is good too.

    Nothing is free, but single payer is definitely cheaper than what we have now.

  • @TheBear1488 Try being a bit more... logical. Your overly emotional babbling won't get the results you're looking for.

  • @TheBear1488 if you go to medical school you will see that they have 200,000 dollars in debt on average. You dont understand what it takes to have a top class educatino in this country because you never had it.

    Once you understand, you will see that your method is NOT equality of opportunity because poor people cant pay 200 fucking grand or they wouldnt be poor.

  • @TheBear1488 did you go to private high school or public high school? you never once answered that question because you know youre a hypocrite. You went to public school. You are a leech, atleast Im not a hypocrite like you.

  • @TheBear1488 let it be shown that the patriot in this conversation called a kid half his age who got into medical school "scum" "idiot" and other nasty stuff and that I have been extremely respectful.

    I tihnk that defines the lack of maturity you have and the hate thatyou are filled with.

  • @TheBear1488 I dont get it you paid for you education by working for it. Im GOING to pay for it by working for it. Im working for it now. I worked throughout college and highschool. Medical school costs 40 grand a year. College costed 40 grand a year. Im going to pay it all back when I grow older. Doesnt that mean Im NOT a freeloader because Im going to pay it back?

  • @truthofevolution giving the poor money does not give them opportunity...it does the opposite, people who make poor choices with money should not be given more of it...more helpful would be spending money to teach them how to manage the money they have more effectively.

  • @Graffight I completely agree with that, but Im not talking about giving poor money, Im talking about giving poor an opportunity through education. I tihnk poor children deserve an education. Do you?

  • Now I understand why someone wanting to be a doctor is a socialist (truthofevolution) he came to America took advantage of every social program for a free ride at the cost of American citizens, and the free ride continues through college. He never READ the health care bill, has no understanding of what political parties have made what programs. Socialism is great KID until you run out of other peoples money. Another mindless liberal idiot. Don't start with the PhD BS, you are an idiot still.

  • @TheBear1488 dude come on, Im not going to call you an idiot like you called me. Read what it says on the statue of liberty "give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses". If you believe in the statue of liberty, dont say silly things like that. Im one of those tired and poor and now Im going to be a doctor. Thats america's promise. Would you rather that I be a beggar? It wasnt my fault that i was poor, I was a kid. Do you care?

  • @TheBear1488 yeah I took advantage of social programs, but Im going to pay it back. Im going to be rich and Im going to pay my taxes happily so that other kids can have the opportunities I had. Im not selfish. Im also going to be saving lives as a doctor. Do you care about thta? Or dont you think that poor cihldren deserve an education. Do you think only rich people deserve an education?

  • I have to agree with t3chk4. Global warming is a scam, very clever in its design but a scam non the less. I'm also glad some people still know we live in a constitutional republic as all democracies are doomed for failure. If you don;t know the difference between them I suggest you look into it. The rights of the individual over the collective are the most important things. Oh and truthofevolution your points make no sense. Polls are not science or evidence.

    i have to agree with t3chk4.

  • Polls are NOT evidence, the ice core samples and the natural cooling and warming trends in our atmosphere ARE evidence. I doubt your claims as to dual Md/Phd status as by your page shows you are not old enough. I however have an extensive education, and seeing how much of a devoted Democrat you are shows me you don't research anything. You are one of those who think a democracy is what you live in, you don't. Nowhere is a democracy mentioned in either founding document. It's a Republic.

  • I can't say I envy your country right now - not that I ever did, to be honest (except for the greater abundance of climate research centres). However, American policy has a bigger influence on world policy than any other country. Patriotism will only go so far - you're also voting for how the world will end up.

  • "equal opportunity racist" - clever.
