this is the same guy who said he's ready to gun down anyone including a CHILD if they "run up" on him but yet he played college football so he should be able to handle people one would think
he is not very sharp
maybe CTE from playing football??? really can't understand how that logic works

SBR is the perfect forum to see the racism in full force and that's been the case before Obama made office.
Obama has been a perfect example of a president. He's never fukked around with interns, didn't get impeached or did some illegal shenanigans and cared about his family. He couldn't get a lot done because of partisan politics. That's Washington, the 2 party system has basically sand bagged progress. Trump won't be able to get much done either because Washington is really ruled by lobbyist and special interest. Trump will soon find out that you cannot compete with those 2 groups.
this is rich. true U-6 is closer to 15%. true U-6 still counts people that have given up finding a job. true U-6 counts people that are now underemployed because of ACA. true U-6 doesn't weigh "santa claus at the mall" job the same as a full-time, 40-hr/wk job. go talk to your fellow americans in the flyovers and tell them how great things are. tell them how you've been around for a "looong" time and if they don't have a job it's because they're lazy. go tell them 95M americans out of work-- and the lowest labor participation rate since Carter-- is their problem. go tell them 20M more americans on food stamps in the last 8 yrs is a good thing because hot pockets rule. as for your silly, facile take on race relations, they have devolved because his DOJ chose to politicize law enforcement... because it revs up one's base before a midterm election... f*ck that white cop in Ferguson, right? "pigs in a blanket... fry em like bacon... what do we want... dead cops... when do we want em... now." that's who big lefties like you caucus with and that's why you and your party were just put out at the curb like the trash that you are.

I totally agree Rocket. I believe the first 90 days... will be very troubling. People are still rebelling... thinking Obama (their savior) is gone. I predict more riots... and more hate. Trump will have no choice but to go on TV and make a statement and stop the nonsense... or pay a consequence.
Trump has one huge uphill battle. You have to somehow get the people unified again. And there is plenty of hate.

Trump fueled a lot of the hate. He played the hate card the entire election.
Do you think we've had more riots under Obama than under Reagan??? Think long...
Do you think we've had ANY terrorist attack the US while Obama was in office??? Think long...
We got our ass kicked on 9/11. Who was in office then? We've sent countless number of sons into useless wars, who declared war on Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam.
We've lived in relative safety the last 8 years under Obama. Now you want to blame him if shit starts while Trump is president?? WTF?

I love this country but my god there are a lot of people completely clueless...throwing around words like "class" and "great orator"....dumb penetrates are so disconnected from reality...we might not stand a chance no matter who is president...

Get the Fukkk out of here with that 95M bullshit. 40% of that number are retired. Another 20% are still in school. The rest? Sitting on their ass. Damn the stupidity. I deal with folks out of work every day. Life is tough but whoever said it was suppose to be easy? Nobody is just entitled to a job. You have to make your own way. 100 years ago, most people worked for themselves but today we have entitled citizens who think they should be handed a job.
Have you been to other countries? Do you think they have life better than Americans? We have fresh water running in our toilets. We hunt for sport. We eat when we're not hungry. We can get on a plane and be anywhere in the world in the next 48 hours. Have you been to Europe, where you can't even get a fukking cup of ice? Have you been to China where if you blow your nose, you will come up with a handful of soot? Have you worked your ass off in Russia to only earn about $400 a month? Don't let these idiot posters living outside the US. They want to convince you that we have so many problems so they can feel better about their fukked up country. Russian Rocket just told you he came to California ON VACATION. How many Americans are going to fukking Siberia for vacation? No fukking body. If some of you like Putin and Russia so much, I suggest you take a trip or move your ass over there. Get back with me on how that worked out for you.
America has it's problems but we are still the most prosperous country in the world. we are the wealthiest as well. Like I said, The only people that are unemployed are those that DO NOT WANT TO WORK. There are thousands of jobs that most people think are beneath them and will not do. Why do you think immigrants come into this country??? Because they can find work that entitled, lazy Americans won't do.

Here are some of the excuses I hear from people unemployed...
- I don't want to do that work. You are doing nothing right now, you don't have any real skill, work your way up like everyone else. - The job doesn't pay enough. You are making no money right now. You are getting paid commensurate with your experience. - I can't work on Thursdays or those hours. Then you cannot work the job. - I use to be a manager. I use to make this much. This job is a step down. Unemployment is the bottom of the step.
- I can't drive that far. How far can you drive without a job and no money for gas?
- Companies keep telling me no. Well of course you're going to get rejected applying to an engineering role and you don't have a GED
- I don't want to work for the man or look like a sellout. Okay then
- My dream is to be an actor
- I'm going to win the lottery, I have a big bet on Bama that will certainly cash.
I have heard them all. There's too many ways to earn money. A job is not always the ultimate answer. Most people need to get motivated to take proper action.

Man, can't make this stuff up. The Mac fo Lyfe telling us how the world works. I'd love to work, and I do. I also have certain things that make it difficult to do so, and live in a city with a terrible economy. But, I must just not want a career, and the immigrants will break their back for me. Oh, shit. I do that. I took their jobs.
Unfckingbelievable. You live in some alternate reality. At least I know that Kraken is just trying to push buttons, and is intelligent. Even though we differ on pretty much all beliefs. Your lifestyle has brainwashed you into thinking you have all the answers.

Reread your post? I have no clue what the hell you are saying? Do you have a job? You don't have a job? You just want a career but others are breaking their backs for you? What job did you take?

You work like the majority of us on SBR living in the US. Which pretty much proves my point. More people work today in the US than 8 years ago. There are more opportunities today than 20 years ago. That doesn't mean we don't have a lot of people living in poverty, because we do. We also have way too many people uneducated, unskilled, and not on payrolls. We have a lot of people with mental illness that is not being addressed. Yes, many cities are hurting. Life is hard.
but, I think we forget how bad it is in other countries. For as bad as things are in the US, most other countries have it much, much worst. Our quality of life is better than most countries. We should not forget that. Nor should we think the grass is greener in places like Russia, which it's not.

Trump supporters act like Trump, they just didn't receive a $1,000,000 (equivalent to 4.5M now) "small loan" to get started with. Unfortunately for them, the only golden showers they can afford are when they piss their own pants from another night of drinking too much and falling asleep outside their trailer.

I get all that. We could go back, and forth forever. Still, this is the USA. Our quality of life is better than most, absolutely. Yet, it's not like it was. And I work, but it's not steady. I'm not on the books. I'd be one of those that don't even make it in the stats.
I'm 29. I know you're older. People the age of my parent, and even grandparents have/had a much easier path to retirement. Not all, but times have changed. The outlook for people in my generation isn't what it once was in the US. I'll leave it at that. No arguing that living here isn't pretty damn good, but I'd say it has been better. Along with getting worse, as time goes on.

Status updates that they posted when they were 19, direct messages to people when they were drunk asking for nudes, etc.
