I would like to hear what you think about those questions :

OK

1. Should we welcome refugees ?

Genuine refugees are welcome. But I will never welcome economic migrants, such as those 1.2 million in Germany right now.

2. I yes, why ?

Genuine refugees can be admitted in small numbers, given that they have cultural and ethnic ties to the host nation.

3. How much ?

Ideally 0.01% of the total population per year.

4. Would it bother you to have to host a refugee in your house ?

No. Never.

5. Would you like your daughter to marry a refugee  ?

Hell no.

That is too rude, anyway, we should not waste our time and energy with them just to see them suffering. I'd rather go with a lethal injection, so they'll just be gone in a second or public execution would do. And all their wealth should take possession by the government and give to poor people or to build schools etc.

Corruption is punishable by death in some of the countries, like China. However in Western nations, the white-collar crimes are always treated lightly. Even if someone steals billions of USD (such as Bernie Madoff), he will be out of jail in a few years.
22083  Other / Politics & Society / Re: UNESCO declares Islam as the most peaceful religion of the world on: February 13, 2017, 04:42:56 PM
The Internet really has a lot of opinions and these opinions allow you to make your choice. For me Islam is an aggressive religion and I don't care what you think of this site. Proof that what the terrorists shout Allahu Akbar.

Most of the major religion-based terror organizations (such as the ISIS and the Al Qaeda) take inspiration from the Islamic teachings. There may be a few terror organizations based on Christianity, Buddhism.etc., but they are less than 1% of the total.
For me personally, all Muslims are terrorists. They differ only by the fact that some Muslims are attacking openly call for Jihad, while others are waiting their time and disguised as good citizens. I don't trust them.

The Islamic terrorists follow the tenets of Islam and a majority of the Muslims believe in these tenets. For example, they believe that any person renouncing Islam must be killed. Even the educated Muslims in Western nations openly support this idea.

It turns out that explosives can buy anyone in the sports shop. Scared for his life becomes of such news
Believe me, the explosives can be made from simple substances that are used at home. You don't even know what linking they give such an effect. So bans will do nothing.

Explosives can be made from easily available substances, but the potency of such explosives will be very low. If you want to make very powerful explosives, then you need to purchase a large number of hard-to-obtain chemicals.
22085  Other / Politics & Society / Re: FAKE NEWSPAPER FROM A POOR COUNTRY Confuses Alec Baldwin and Donald Trump on: February 13, 2017, 04:24:01 PM
Funny.. This could be twisted by the Donald administration as an act of war. A reason to go in and free the people of wherever it was published.

I would have believed it, but Trump has already made it clear that he is against unnecessary military interventions. On the other hand, if either Hillary or Biden was in his place, a declaration of war could have gone out by now.
22086  Other / Politics & Society / Re: World War III ? on: February 13, 2017, 04:20:22 PM
You are not right. Almost all countries of the world are pretty cynical about the wars on the territory of other States. This applies not only to Western countries. Look at how it responds to the war the UN! I'm not talking about the time such a reaction.

Not many of the world nations want to get involved in the internal matter of other nations. Things to the contrary occur only when the particular country is of strategic significance to the other nations (example is Syria).
22087  Other / Politics & Society / Re: World War III ? on: February 13, 2017, 03:53:17 PM
war is terrible, peace is the best

I agree with you, war is just a nightmare for everyone. So how can the new generation will cope up on this if they will expereince war. There will be a bad effect to everyone.

You are right. The people living in Western nations have no first hand experience of major wars, with the exception of those who were born before 1945. These people are ignorant of the suffering war can bring, and are more likely to take a positive stance on starting military conflicts.
22088  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Drug free in the Philippines on: February 13, 2017, 03:51:18 PM
But it is not still enough because there are many more addict just hiding but still using it. One prof is the 4month old baby raped in cebu. Hope illegal drugs will clean out soon.

How can you be sure that the perpetrator was a drug addict? Was the rapist caught? If not, there is no evidence to claim that the crime was committed by someone under the influence of drugs. Pedophilia is a mental disease, which is different from drug addiction.

It was a genuine mistake, and they were not intentionally publishing fake news. Dominican Republic is a third world country, and their main exports are sugar, rum and female porn-stars (Miosotis Claribel, Kristina Milan.etc).
Yeah right I think it was a genuine mistake. It was the negligence of the publisher because publishing a wrong photo and not ascertain the truth, so many are protest. But they've done clarifying and apologizing for mistakes they do, I think it is no cause for concern. It was a lesson for the media to be more careful and thorough in making the news beforehand so as not make a mistake.
Yes, there was no error. It's just a joke. You're all a joke! Look closely at the photo of Alex Baldwin! Can't you see his jacket, the Russian flag? This is a joke which emphasises excessive attachment to Trump Russia.

I don't think that a majority of the people in Dominican Republic will be able to differentiate between the Russian and the American flags. Most of the time, the news stories are made by trainees, who are excessively dependent upon Google.
22090  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you hate muslems? on: February 13, 2017, 02:07:19 PM
I hate them. For me they are not just people, for me they are terrorists. They impose their ideas by force. This to me is unacceptable.

You can say the same thing about Christians.
Do Christianity survived the same period in the middle ages. Were the Crusades and the Inquisition, but it's long gone.Now no such cases. For me Muslims are the Australian aborigines cannibals. They people, but in my heart, even animals.

Exactly. The history of Christianity is not very clean. For example, the Catholic church managed to exterminate 90% of the natives in the Americas. But those days are long gone. Now Christianity is a progressive religion, unlike Islam.
So I say that not to provoke a war easier to temporarily stop taking Muslims to the territory with the more progressive religions. For the sake of the Muslims. Or there will be war and ethnic cleansing. Why bring this up?

But whenever the governments try to ban the entry of Muslims, the mainstream media and the liberal activists go ballistic, and with support from the corrupt judges, they usually manage to overturn such orders.
22091  Economy / Economics / Re: EU ramps up war on cash on: February 12, 2017, 02:57:55 PM
Well digital fiat is really to the government's advantage since all your money would be in the bank and the government can keep track of it. If your account is frozen for some reason, then you're screwed. Hopefully by the time this happen Bitcoin is already widely adopted and transaction time would be tolerable enough for some small purchases. With digital fiat the norm (or rather the only system other than cryptos) you either use bitcoin or your country's currency even for the littlest stuff. It would always be better to have a failsafe.

This is a major issue. If the money is stored in the digital form, then it is extremely difficult to prevent any account seizing or haircut from the banks / government. Perhaps that is the main intention behind this move.
22092  Economy / Economics / Re: Do You Think Bitcoin Will Replace Dollar Soon? on: February 12, 2017, 02:53:46 PM
They both work together so i think this will not gonna happen in near future, if it will happen then it will take many years because dollar is the currency which is accepted worldwide and most of the countries people know the importance of Dollar and still there are many people or countries which don't have knowledge about the importance of bitcoin. So for me bitcoin will never replace dollar.

The most important thing is that, for the United States Dollar, its value is assured by the US treasury. But for Bitcoin, no agency will assure its value. Therefore the exchange rates are entirely dependent upon the supply/demand equilibrium.
22093  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or gold? on: February 12, 2017, 02:48:22 PM
its depends on suply of gold or btc..i hold the instrument that has suply limited..it could make that price more expensive

We are certain about the supply of BTC. We know exactly how many Bitcoins will be mined per day, for each day up to 2140. But regarding the supply for gold, the estimates can vary in accuracy.
22094  Economy / Economics / Re: Long term OIL on: February 12, 2017, 02:46:21 PM
That's not the only way. The far better option is continuing to develop renewable energy so that nobody has to give a damn about oil anymore. There's no reason to drill in any protected area. We're not that hard up for oil. And once we're off it, or we've severely reduced our need, we can let the rest of the world wallow in in the misery of having a foreign policy designed around securing oil from the Middle East or elsewhere.

We've been trying to develop the renewable energy alternatives for the past many decades and there has been hardly any success. And I don't think that it will happen in the near future as well. So it is important to find other viable resources of crude oil.
22095  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Saudi diplomat sentenced to caning in Singapore for sexual abuse on: February 12, 2017, 02:38:26 PM
I certainly condemn sexual violence but I don't know how it really is. Maybe this is a provocation? Remember as a candidate to head the international monetary Fund Strauss Kahn? Maybe it's the same?

At least in this case, I believe that the charges are real. The Saudis are notorious for their perverted behavior, both at home and abroad. A few days back, I read that more than 90% of the female domestic helps in Saudi Arabia are raped regularly by their employers.
22096  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Would you eat a human? on: February 12, 2017, 02:34:03 PM
If it was my enemy's son and we've been in war with "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth" scenario, I will definitely it his child.

Your enemy's son is not your enemy. Why harm the children? If you are man enough, then you should target only the adults. I don't condone cannibalism during warfare. It must be avoided.

As I've said, in case of "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth" that means he eaten a family member of mine or my clan. I didn't say that I will eat the child without a reason and just for the sake of mocking my enemy that they are weak. In war,  if we are in a fight, it will be laughable to even kill a child without them carrying a weapon and shooting at us.  Smiley

If someone has killed and eaten your son, then you should kill the murderer, and not his son. That will be the real revenge. Killing a child will not achieve anything. What if the murderer hates his son, and wants him dead? In that case, you'll be doing him a big favor.

I think Bangladesh is the most dangerous country in the world.

Bongladesh is pretty safe, if you are a Muslim. If you are a Hindu or a Buddhist tribal, then you can expect the peaceful Bangladeshis to either behead you (if you are a male) or rape you (if you are a female).
22098  Other / Politics & Society / Re: [NEWS] Trump freezes immigration + POLL on: February 12, 2017, 02:25:21 PM
People always want to live in a good state. Migrants are not a problem if the state could direct the migration flows in the right direction. In any country needs workers. If they are to assimilate into society the state will benefit from this.

It is just a myth propagated by the liberals that any country is going to benefit out of illegal immigrants. How can a country benefit from these people, when they are exploiting the welfare payments, without paying the taxes?

Also, the entire population of the developed world is around 1 billion. The population of the developing nations is more than 6 billion. It is not practical to bring all these 6 billion to the developed nations.

Wow! This is the first time I am hearing about this. I never looked into such a possibility. Even if someone uses BTC for black market organ donation, how is he going to make sure that the payment will be honored? Is he going to use an escrow? Also, how is the person going to convert this huge pile of BTCs to fiat?
