First of all, you shouldn't have kept your coins in an exchange wallet. BTW, from where did you got the exchange rates for BCC? As far as I know, none of the exchanges are doing any BTC vs BCC trade right now.

The problem is that to tell a Muslim is impossible. They can't communicate. Their childhood was brought up so that everyone who does not recognize Islam as the enemy. They are not ready to dialogue. My opinion is that Muslims are stupid and Islam is nonsense. Well if they only didn't eat pork, but to consider a dog a filthy animal needs to be a complete idiot.

This is the problem with Islam. They are still stuck in the 8th century AD. And actually, some people want to follow the purest form of Islam, by living exactly like how the prophet lived during that time. They want to remove the influence of modern technology from their lives (perhaps with the exception of modern medicine).

The cops were right in charging her for rape. She was not uneducated and she knew that it was a criminal offence to have sex with someone that young. Now she should face the consequences.

As long as it doesn't crosses a certain limit, no one must be declared immune to criticism. Even heads of state and religious leaders are not immune to criticism. But the targeted party should also take it in a light way, rather than killing everyone who criticize them (just like what happened with the Charlie Hebdo cartoonists).

IMO, it will be better to purchase your coins before August 1. If you are purchasing after that date, then you are forfeiting your right to claim the BCC tokens. And there is no need to distrust Coinbase. They have been around for so long, and I don't think that they will ever run away with your money.

that said if it was a military unit it depends on if they can create cohesion and trust with their fellow soldiers on the battlefield so the real matter comes down to action in the end.

You are 100% correct. In the battlefield, a lot depends on the cohesion and trust. And that is why the previous policy of "don't ask, don't tell" worked so well. But Obama tried to become politically correct, and started admitting openly gay people in the army. Now when a soldier is battling against the ISIS or Al Qaeda, he needs to guard his rectum as well (from his fellow gay soldiers).
18867  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Trump is better than Obama? on: July 31, 2017, 04:19:31 AM
Obama was bad but Donald Trump is much worse than Obama. Because he's trying to take decissions upon his own will. No matter what the law says.

Your logic is very strange. Trump is very bad because he is taking independent decisions without anyone's influence? I would rate that as one of his plus points. Everyone knows that Obama was a puppet, who got elected just because of his race.
I think, Obama is better than Trump because Obama really listens well to his people. And I beg to disagree with you that his independent decision making is Trump's plus point over Obama because a president should study well all of his decisions and consult his people before implementing it because it might affect not just him but the whole state. And out of all the decision that Trump has made so far, I am very much displeased with his decision of not accepting transgender people in the military. Some transgender people can do a lot more things than a straight people can so why stop them from entering the military.

Obama was a puppet and he was incapable of taking independent decisions. He was just following whatever Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden told him to do. Trump is different in that aspect. He listens to everyone, but takes decision on his own.
18868  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Your opinion on recreational drug use on: July 31, 2017, 04:17:45 AM
I think recreational drug use must be prohibited because I don't think that there is really a need of using drugs just for recreational purposes. I mean, you can party all night and be happy without using recreational drugs. And even though it is just for recreation, there are still chances that it can ruin one's life and the number of crimes might rise due to its use.

Some of the recreational drugs are quite harmless and they are just like alcohol and tobacco. So I don't agree with your views to ban all types of recreational drugs. But dangerous drugs such as methamphetamines must be banned without any exception.

would love to experience world war... Grin

Yeah sure... and it is going to be your last experience as well. If the war doesn't kills you, then the economic collapse which will follow is definitely going to destroy you. After the WW2, it took almost 2 decades for the global economy to get stabilized.
18870  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you trust the United States of America? on: July 31, 2017, 03:46:40 AM
I like the songs of the American singers, I like the movies produced in america I like the series produced in america, but I do not trust the American government.

This! I also think american government is a satan nest. They do play as a human right God but in reality they love killing people who is against them.

They are a bunch of hypocrites. They are very concerned about the human rights violations in countries such as India, and at the same time they remain silent to the various atrocities happening in their allied nations, such as Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.
18871  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you agree in death penalty? on: July 31, 2017, 03:44:27 AM
100 percent agree.  I do not think we should reward murderers by keeping them alive in air conditioned prisons where they are fed everyday. If they are worthless to society they should get out.

This is the problem. I don't understand keeping the death row inmates 30-35 years in jail. Does it takes that long to file all the appeals? If someone is sentenced to death, then the penalty must be carried out within the next 12 months time.
18872  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Village council ordered to rape 17-year-old before the 40 men and her parents. on: July 31, 2017, 03:42:49 AM
Hopefully, as more and more of these case of abuse make it to the limelight, the more moderate segment of Pakistani society would show outrage. It could be their mother, sister, and daughters that would end up getting this treatment just because of an alleged crime.

There is no moderate segment within the Pakistani society. It is a heavily male dominated society, where rape victims are considered as outcasts. The rapists are never punished. The Mukhtaran Bibi rape incident is a prime example. None of the accused in that case were punished.
18873  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Who will win WW3? on: July 31, 2017, 03:38:49 AM
It is hard to decide, but my prediction China/Russia have a great potential. China have some kind of great technology to offer and also the military aspect in drone technology.

China doesn't have any technology of their own. All their military technology is stolen from other nations such as Russia and Germany. But the advantage with China is that they have the largest standing army in the world, and can afford heavy casualties.
18874  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Transgenders are not allowed to serve the military. on: July 31, 2017, 03:37:14 AM
LOL. They'll have a pride parade, complete with rainbow flags and fully-armored rainbow unicorns. There'll be muscled men all well-oiled, women with beards, etc. And lots of confetti. That's enough spectacle to scare the shit out of any Islamist. They'll probably just hang themselves.

From what I have heard, a lot of these ISIS guys are either gay or bisexual. I won't be surprised if rather than getting horrified at the site of the transgenders marching around, the ISIS terrorists may join the pride march.

How ironic? The Eastern Europe, which used to be a bastion of atheism once has become a bastion of Orthodox Christianity now. On the other hand, the western nations (including the US and Australia) are becoming more and more atheist.
18876  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Where would society be without the internet? on: July 31, 2017, 03:31:18 AM
As i see the future of a society without the internet,  the citizens will dwell more on manual works and personal communications. The interactions between people and environment will be more evident. 

Interactions are needed, but if there is no internet, then it is going to have a negative effect on a lot of things. Time and effort will be wasted on traveling and other tasks. For example, if I need to transfer money to someone, then I might be required to go to the bank instead of doing that at home using internet banking.
18877  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Drug free in the Philippines on: July 31, 2017, 03:26:06 AM
I think our President Rodrigo Duterte can make the Philiplines free from drugs. I believe with the support from everyone, this dream can be achieve in no time. As i see today, people critizes our the negative side of the program but doesn't look atthe positive effects from it. I, as a student, i hope that this goal can be achieve as soon a possible to make our country better.

If he is able to achieve his goals, then that will be a great accomplishment. Something which no one else was able to achieve prior to this. And as a non-Filipino, I am glad that the citizens of Philippines are supporting his initiative.
18878  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Interview with a Bangladeshi Muslim criminal who killed more than 500 girls on: July 31, 2017, 02:11:58 AM
https://www.facebook.com/anonews.co/videos/1676284645716421/

It can't get any more disturbing than this. This is an interview with one of the biggest criminals in Bangladesh, who is active in the Chittagong Hill Tracts region (a region mostly inhabited by mostly Buddhist and Hindu tribal people). He admits that he has sold more than 5,000 tribal girls to brothels during the last 7 years, and claims that he has killed over 500 of them when they refused.

Despicable. If I was the interviewer I probably wouldn't have been able to resist breaking his neck. Chittagong is just near the Burmese border, right? No wonder Myanmar don't want to have anything to do with these people...

The Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) had a 0% Muslim population before the partition of India in 1947, and yet it was awarded to Pakistan (now Bangladesh). Ever since the Muslims took control of that region, they have been raping and killing the mostly Buddhist and Hindu tribal people there. Now the CHT is around 60% Muslim and only 40% tribal.
18879  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why do islam hates people? on: July 31, 2017, 01:45:04 AM
Fuck religion. Imagine a world without it.. Fucking peace and quite. Its just another reason to divide people.

No need to hate religion in general. Being a Hindu, I don't have any issues with any religion other than Islam (occasionally I enter in to arguments with Christian pastors who want me to convert to Christianity, but I ignore them).

There is something I like about "entering into an argument with a Christian but ignoring them" while not having any problem with any religion other than Islam."

Well, it is not that hard to understand, right? You can argue with a Christian and make him angry. There will be no negative consequences. But the same can't be said if you are having an argument against a fanatical Muslim. You may be accused of blasphemy, and get beheaded.
18880  Other / Politics & Society / Re: The strategic mistake of the West on: July 31, 2017, 01:42:06 AM
The part at the end of the OP is true. In the US when people came from Cuba it was a very bad thing for Cuba. The same happens when people come through the southern border from Mexico. Many of them would have helped their countries be better if they had stayed. Abandoning your family to come to the US to work and send money back home really isn't a good solution economically for nations as a whole.

There will be no problem if they come to the United States on valid visas. But what is happening now? Those without valid visas are granted immediate entry, while those who go through the legal route are forced to wait for as much as 10 to 15 years.
