Black unemployment levels are at an all time low in the US. (During obamas obamas presidency black unemployment doubled from 8% to 16%) The Dow is at an all time high. Id love to debate politics with anyone but I dont think it's a good fit if your just going to shout Orangeman Racist etc.... I welcome you all into a grown up chat about US politics though if you'd oblige me?

Im not worried at all. Just curious as to why race or gender would have any relevance?

It's boring mate, when people post and use words like 'sophistry', it just alienates people. I'd say 90% of people don't even know what 'sophistry' even means. You would come across better if you just spoke like a normal person, no need for the faux fancy vernacular.

That's very true. 70 on a motorway is ridiculously easy to do. Anyone that cant handle that should never be allowed behind the wheel. On occasion Ive looked down at my speedo when im mentally in auto pilot on a long drive at night and im doing 120mph+. Im in total control, there are no other cars on the road,. Ive not had anything close to an accident and I drive over 1000miles a week.

Really? Such a ridiculous reply, that's actually made my day reading that. The kicker that makes it so good is that I think may even have been serious.

What is wrong with being a white middle aged man?

Couldn't agree more. And anyone that wants to make a ridiculous claim that the smell offends them, or even more hilariously, that the smell impairs their driving, presumably also oppose; bonfires, manure spreading in the countryside, any odour from a restaurant extractor fan, gardeners who assault our senses with freshly cut grass etc.. The earth belongs to us all. If you dont like a smell, move away from it. And please, don't embarrass yourself claiming the odour impairs drivers. No one is buying that guff.

With all due respect, I have to question your mental state for making a comment like that. Bizarre.

Trump made a statement disavowing the chants. End of story. Eh?? There is a presidential campaign happening right now, how could you not know that?

Genuine question, what would be your criteria for the pound to have 'fallen below the euro or dollar'? Also, still waiting to hear which UK stocks you have sold and reinvested in 'European stocks'?

Couldn't agree more with that.

I asked him to specify which investments he took out of the UK, to reinvest into 'European'stock. As for the rest of your post, it's impressive you already know the terms and agreements of a Brexit which hasn't even happened yet.

You're an intelligent person clearly, it's a real shame you'd degrade yourself like this.

The US government plotted to commit huge terrorist style attacks on it's own people back in 1962. I'm sure Halibut would call that a crackpot 'nonsense theory'. Masses of evidence in the video I previously linked.

3000+ degree holding experts in architecture and engineering. It's your right to live in an echo chamber if you so desire. However, I think you're extremely arrogant to just immediately dismiss the evidence and opinion of 3000+ experts on the subject. Would you care to discuss the finer points made by the numerous structural engineers that call into question the official account? Or would you just prefer to shout 'conspiracy theory' without any following grown up conversation?

There is ONE speed camera. If there are any other 'Safety Camera's' on there, then they are totally ineffective, as I've been bombing down there at 90+mph for the last 20 or so years with no consequence.

Cou d you give some examples of the UK stocks you have dumped, and which European stocks you have moved that investment to? Because that claim you made literally makes zero sense. Especially the part about your European bolthole. If you qualify for a citizenship outside of the UK post brexit, why would you need a residence within the EU now when you could just get one post brexit anyway?

What? So 3000+ qualified architects and engineers should just be discounted as 'conspiracy theorists' And whom are the 'professional conspiracy theorists' you are referring to? I just see an expert offering up an alternative opinion.

So I provided evidence, and you refused to even watch it. Seems a bit silly. If you won't watch the evidence I provided, I'm not really sure if it's possible to debate with you. I'll try one more time..... There is a movement called 'Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth' It's membership includes 3000+ qualified Engineers and Architects that question the official explanation of what happened that day. I have provided a video and cited my sources. You won't even watch the video, that's a pretty blinkered outlook.

It's still a 'Law' that you must carry a bale of hay in your vehicle at all times. Do you have a bale of hay in your car everytime you travel? If you don't, then you are a criminal.

As much as I hate the BBC, I'm really struggling to believe that to be true. Where did you get that fact from?

Excellent rebuttal....🙄

I don't have an answer for how to re order society You're 100% right, there will always be a boss class. I cant change that, but at least let me bitch about it on Sheffield forum haha

So you make a grandstanding post about children in cages, and when I ask you to back that claim up you suddenly claim it was a metaphor. The truth is, that there were actually pictures of illegal immigrant children being held in cages which were published, and attributed to the evil overlord Trump. Then it was established that said pictures were actually taken during the Obama administration, and suddenly everyone stopped talking about it. Halibut, I have publicly rinsed you on your claim about children in cages (to such a degree you desperately tried to claim it was a metaphor lol). You've embarrassed yourself with flippant comments about 'tanks on the streets' (that was particularly desperate) it was the 4th July parade pal. And when I challenged you to state why Trump is Racist, you just googled my question and posted the first link that came up (which incidentally was a link to an opinion piece with zero evidential summation.

Corbyn is as pathetic as Boris. The Royal family are lazy privileged freeloaders, they have zero connection with reality and how normal people live. It's sickening.
