But sane people are in the majority, as evidenced by the whopping 2 million more who voted for Hillary than Trump.  The idea that you have to give the minority a veto in case the majority gets it wrong is tripe. We're talking about the USA, not Northern Ireland.


So following that logic,  the unionist majority in the North should be allowed to lord it over their Nationalist brethren given their numerical superiority?

Did you read my last sentence all the way to the end?

Yes.....it seems like that is what you are advocating for

Then apparently you can't read.

I did but its unintelligible.  The majority will always force their beliefs on the minority

It happens the world over

How do you think white privilege works stew?

Do the cops tell you "we are not going to hassle or assault you because you are a white man". Does the store security guard tell you he is not going to follow you because you are a respectable looking white man? Does the hiring company say " we didn't throw out your resume because you have a white-sounding name".

Is it spelled out when someone benefits from white privilege?

Sidley they did not piss me off, they are typically inaccurate points from the left, you seem to take pleasure in me being pissed off, strange because we do not know each other.

Talk to me when you are eamon can actually post facts, no opinion saturated drivel, Hmm K. )

Maybe he did it, and it's all a cunning plot
Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity

Las Vegas PD have issued a statement, and it sounds a bit different to be honest. They responded to a call about an active shooter, he was crouched behind a slot machine, and when the cops came he ran. According to them at least.

According to them it happened in a casino.

Which presumably means lots of cameras.

Let's see if the police release the footage.

And of course their body cams were off.
