I don't pretend to know what will be better for the UK in the long run - whether in the EU or not, but it is surely a sign that if you ignore the main populace for too long in pursuit of your singular vision they will react accordingly and do drastic things. The same thing is happening here in the US. The Democrat Party would have been wise to attempt to swap out Hilary for another candidate, because I think she is just unpopular enough with people on both sides to actually lose to Trump.

Anyone who thinks the market is reacting to specific changes rather than just the idea of change is being silly. The real change in the market will occur when things actually start changing after they invoke article 50, and start brokering new trade deals.

As much as I dislike Bill Maher, he is on point with this video: The idea that two religions have to be regarded as equal in violence, intolerance, and oppression for the sake of equality is dumb. How does that even make sense? The sole reason for saying that is to prevent one religion from being marginalized, and eventually persecuted, but there is a line between persecution and shocking the religion into the 21st century. It is time for Islam to enter the 21st century.

I think this is what Cameron attempted prior to the referendum. If they got better terms from the EU as a result, it would've been a decent move. However, it certainly backfired on him big time though. Those social democrat/labor voters are just "confused" because of the racist and xenophobic war cries of the conservatives! You have got to give it to them, they certainly know how to shift blame.

Sounds like they have got their own infectious hysteria going around themselves. Could the polls not really be accurate because people are afraid to answer because of the doom and gloom decreed by the remain crowd? Also since when do we count on 18-24 year olds to have informative all knowing opinions of how the world should be run? Why isn't the story "18-24 year olds whining about how they are being overridden by 25-100 year olds"? Edit: They also think they are the only ones who work in the global markets: "There’s a natural divide between generations around the world: There are those of us who grew up with the Internet, and those whose lives go largely unaffected by anything digital or global in nature. We’ve grown up believing in a future that transcends national borders because we experience that world in our work, interests and social lives online. Today, the future we imagined was stolen from us." Damn when did we raise such a condescending and whiney generation? Oh that's right, they are 18-24 years old....I see some tweets and comments saying 16-17 year olds should've been able to vote "Decades of uncertainty and political chaos have been unleashed by a generation of voters that barely possesses the digital literacy to use a USB stick correctly' Edit 2: Oh is it really true only half of them voted too? I don't know what choice would've turned out best in the long run, but you can't make this stuff up.

The extra seats is a point but the extra price they charge for seats in the new stadium would dwarf that. Even if you just increase ticket prices by 25% you are talking an 65,000 seats at an extra $25 a game you are talking $1,625,000 a game or $13,000,000 million a season. The increase and PSL's will likely be much more than that. I mean you can throw in the cost of the new stadium, but eventually they will break even and be better for it. Especially with selling stadium name rights, nfl funding, public funding.

Shaq, Reggie and Tyrod - So Stoked
What a Tuel replied to MarlinTheMagician's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No, I just think Bills fans rate him higher than they should because we missed out on him. He is often put up there with the greats. He is a good QB, but I'll wait and see a few more years before I call him a great. -
Russell Wilson isn't the greatest QB since sliced bread.

I dislike Wilson but it has nothing to do with race. -
And join Scotland. They are even using the hashtag #scotlond.

What is better, no guns, or more guns?
What a Tuel replied to Security's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
It would never hold up because we don't have the stomach for it. The first incident in which something goes wrong, god forbid somebody accidentally shot, and it will go in the can. No matter the individual negligence, it will be seen as an issue with the program as a whole before it is written off as sole incident. Just like they lament the 8-12 million "assault weapons" in the US as horrible and craziness, and at the same time not acknowledge that mass shootings happen with "assault weapons" totaling in the single digits each year. (Or 0.0001% of the outstanding weapons) -
June Movies: Independence Day, Finding Dory, & Free State
What a Tuel replied to Mark Vader's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I said the same thing. It's like the critics are hating on it because they think they are supposed to? Or they just have such a disconnect from the story they have no idea what's going on. ID2 is getting bad reviews unfortunately, hopefully they are wrong. I think I will enjoy it! -
That goes with the immigration section. To them it's as if comprehensive immigration policy in which immigration is controlled and not a free for all is xenophobic. At least that's how it's taken in America. Not sure about Britain, but most people are fine with legal immigration. There just isn't a common sense argument to leaving the back door open. If it doesn't matter then why have legal immigration in the first place? Why are all of those people waiting in line legally?

Why does it have to be coordinated by? Why not just inspired by? I mean ISIS has a crazy amount of propaganda out there for a reason.
-
I think to claim that the Orlando attack wasn't terrorism would be ignoring the inspirational and motivational power that ISIS is wielding across the world right now. They don't need direct contact. That's a dangerous tactical error by the US, and the rest of the world. We aren't adapting, we are too busy blaming American culture for anti gay sentiment despite the guy going to a gay bar, and scouting out Disneyland "gay" days. That horribly repressed gay culture, oh dear. Oh, and evil guns.

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/gun-lovers-opinion-assault-rifles-article-1.2674555 He wrote a reaction piece to the criticism he was getting for relating firing an AR-15 to PTSD. Some gems: "Yes, this weapon scared the crap out of me. And it should scare the crap out of all of you, too. An AR-15 is a weapon of mass destruction, a tool that shouldonly be in the hands of our soldiers and cops, as Rep. Seth Moulton wrote in the Daily News on Tuesday. I don't think there's anything unmanly about pointing out this fact." "Besides, if masculinity is defined by the power to commit violence on a wide scale, I proudly choose femininity. " "Yes, I'm a wimp. I simpered because my experience with the AR-15 bruised me, body and spirit. But there's nothing unmanly about reminding my readers that mass murder is much easier to commit with a semi-automatic killing machine than it is with a hammer. If that makes me a girl, well, maybe we should have a girl running the country." -

Do you think people in Cleveland say the same about the Bills and Buffalo? -
Bought tickets on TicketMaster? They may owe free tickets
What a Tuel replied to Saxum's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I got an e-mail for this. I wish you have to agree to be a part of these stupid settlements. Just like the Bills text thing, I don't want to sue in an effort to make 1 person and his lawyers rich. -

What a Tuel replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No wonder you are so bitter. The negative reactions are more because your "friends" know little about Buffalo than fundamental knowledge about Buffalo being "a joke". Two of the cities you mentioned have superiority complex because they are NYC and LA and are "the greatest thing us peasants can imagine." -

Not to mention the millions of AR-15's out there, and what 6 have been used in mass shootings of that scale in the last 5 years? Not so sure accessibility is the problem, and something tells me the government won't effectively control the millions of weapons out there. -

No? 8 different teams won a super bowl each in the last 8 years. Edit: Just realized from 7 different divisions too. Only division not representing is the AFC South who just missed the cutoff. 2016 Cavaliers - Broncos 2015 Warriors - Patriots 2014 Spurs - Seahawks 2013 Heat - Ravens 2012 Heat - Giants 2011 Mavericks - Packers 2010 Lakers - Saints 2009 Lakers - Steelers 2008 Celtics - Giants 2007 Spurs - Colts 2006 Heat - Steelers 2005 Spurs - Patriots -

http://dailyleak.org/2015/06/tom-brady-retires-over-controversy/ No, he can get his own standing ovation at his own stadium as the bandwagon fans start falling off on his way out.
