2701  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Drug free in the Philippines on: July 17, 2017, 01:54:58 PM
Can the president of the Philippines can do it. Well I like what his doing in his campaign. It is very amazing program and very work program in the country. Many were discipline now because of him.

Yes, because filipinos are incapable of self control or self restraint. Their traits are the epitome of what other societies would consider deviant behavior. Just look back to the times of marcos. Filipinos need a dictator because they're incapable of doing the right thing without someone pointing a gun at their head. There's a great article I found written back in the 1980s that explains far more eloquently than I ever could how the culture and the society itself is to blame for their woes. It's just as true today as when it was written. It's titled 'A damaged culture'.

https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/1987/11/a-damaged-culture/505178/

I always laugh when i hear filipinos complain about the corruption of their government; if the person complaining was ever in government they'd be just as corrupt as the current officials. They continue voting in the same people expecting a change which is not atypical filipino behavior. The culture itself is corrupt, not the government.

This is remarkable, the campaign of the presidential war of the Philippines proved effective and effective, I want my country free from drugs and may be able to imitate the philippines.

But don't forget that it has caused more than 5,000 deaths till now. Most of those who died were drug peddlers and drug kingpins, but a lot of innocent bystanders were also killed as collateral casualties.

Not even. The police use it as an excuse to execute, extort and rob whoever they want. They kidnapped a korean businessman not to long ago, killed him, and collected a ransom. He was kidnapped INSIDE THE NATIONAL POLICE HEADQUARTERS. Yes, you read that right. He was inside the national headquarters of the Philippine police when police officers kidnapped him. They're executing people without any cause. Guilt by association is enough to get you executed. Even the general public is getting in on the fun. Don't like someone? Want someone's land? Want to shut down someone's business? Just kill them and say they were involved in the drug trade. There is also extortion going on with police officers demanding money from people or they will say they're linked to the drug trade.

The problem with the philippines is filipinos.

I agree with you kabayan. Just like the UN Human rights who just critized things here without knowing all the facts at hand. Go try to stay in the Philippines and see how much improvement in terms of criminally around Metro Manila. As I have said, the administration can't totally eradicate drugs but they are heading to a direction which the current population like, - reducing drugs in the street and crimes. I'm still like what the President is doing for our country and I hope this war on drugs will continue up until the last day of his term.

What drug are you taking? Every night I stand on my balcony and hear gun shots ring out from every direction. There are still drug dealers everywhere.

Any country where people make animals kill each other as a source of amusement / entertainment is certainly going to devalue human life. Just look at your dear president. He thinks he should be first in a gang rape to rape a beautiful woman because he was 'mayor' (at the time). The president is a drug addict himself. But it's ok because a 'doctor' gives it to him. Ya, my cousin had major back surgery and was given drugs by the doctors as well. He was a drug addict. Even after the pain was gone, he would still say there was pain to get more pills. Duterte has mental issues, some sort of narcissistic personality disorder on top of already being a misogynistic asshat. I was pro-duterte until like 5 weeks before the election when I went and did some background research on him and realized how fucked up he really is.

In any other country his misogynistic comments alone would be enough to get him out of office. But hey! It's more fun in the philippines!

..

There's a reason why filipinos never come home after getting permanent residence in another country. They've seen what life can be like when people work together to build a society, accomplishments, and make life better. They want that life. Who wouldn't? But, they try to keep their culture and don't integrate properly within the culture of where they're living. They don't realize that their culture and beliefs are the reason that the Philippines became a shit hole in the first place. This is the reason why they've become globally hated. Their culture is directly contrary to what made their new host country successful in the first place. They don't add to or provide anything to their new host country, they only take from it.

It's hard for me to believe after living here for 10 years that this country was once the #1 economy in asia.


Yes it is No.1 in Asia before but all the things what you said has the other side.  Not because you have sources and links referred to were correct.  I do not know if you are a Filipino or not but on the way you talk maybe not.  Or you are a filipino but afraid to accept the fact.  I may say that now, I finally trust our policemen for the first time in my life.  Philippines is no.1 in Asia before when Marcos is still the President.  Many rich people were against Marcos because he is pro Filipino.  Philippines starts to fall when he was dethroned.

Technology on the latter part has also a negative effects. Children doesn't play outside anymore. And it also has something to do with their health condition. I'm afraid i've heard news about children getting hospitalized because of technology. Maybe their parents encourage/limit them from using gadgets.

Parents are liable in all that causes harm to there children specifically with technology.  Yes, I was able to see that news and the child had a seizure because of the prolonged exposure  of playing with gadget.  The radiation caused by these gadgets has really a huge effect on our brain sespecially with the young ones.  I saw an advertisement in fb wherein the sales clerk asked the age of the son of the buyer.  When they told him the age, he said that they could get it when the boy is already 12 years old.
2703  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Impact of drinking alcohol. on: July 17, 2017, 01:32:56 PM
Actually if drinking within reasonable limits and not drunk might be okay. But of course alcoholic drinks also contain a lot of sugar that is not good for health.

Indeed you are correct.  It is okay to drink but it is not good to be drunk.  All applies in moderation, everything is okay if it is in moderation.  As beer advertisement says, Drink moderately.  Evil deeds also lurk in the mind of a drunkard and thus, it can trigger him to commit crime and other untoward incident.  Plus the fact that it can cause damage to your liver.
2704  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Gay Marriage and Adoption on: July 17, 2017, 01:24:22 PM
for me gay marriage  is ok as long as both of them is happy and not hurting other people , in some countries they accepting this kind of relationships but most countries do not because of discrimination .. and for the adoption , they can adopt as long as they can support the child , ,
Some countries forbid gay marriages not because of discrimination, but because of abnormalities. The normal marriage and what should happen is a marriage between two people, one male and one female, not between men with men and women with women.If there is a case of discrimination, it is because the path they choose is not normal.

I agree with you.  It is not called discrimination because it is immoral to blessed and be in a holy sacrament the two person who are in both sex.  The church should only blessed and hold a ceremony for a couple on opposite sex.  Anyways gay people still have freedom to live in the same place and be a couple.  They can also adopt children as long as they can support them.
2705  Other / Off-topic / Re: punishment for rapists on: July 17, 2017, 11:43:15 AM
Death penalty. It is the punishment I can see for all the rapists of there. Rape is a grave offense that's why I see death penalty as a punishment. It also set the mind of people of not doing a crime.

Yes I agree with you with this that the punishment of rapist should be death penalty.  I remember before that there was this man sentenced to be injected with lethal injection for the crime he did to his daughter.  If my memory serves me right, until the day of his death he vehemently denied that he raped her daughter.  Sad if it is true that he did not rape her own daughter because it cost his life.  Anyways, after that the death penalty was lifted and the grave offense was punished merely by lifetime imprisonment.  I really wished that this punishment be imposed once again.
2706  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Introduction of mobile phones on: July 17, 2017, 11:36:52 AM
I think we all agree that mobile phones is a boon in this world. It has a lot of benefits that can give to us since mobile phones started. It makes our lives easy in terms of communication. Aside from communication it is also a tool for being aware in our surroundings. To fetch up news not just in our country but to the whole world as well.

Yes it is a boon because everything now can be done through our mobile phone.  It is not just for texting and calling or the simple ways of communicating, but it does what computers can do.  Almost everything can be done with our mobile phones nowadays and its abilities is limitless. Mobile phones are now considered as a necessity just like food, clothing, and shelter.   It is really sad and you will panicked if you left your phone or worst lost it.  Because everything is in there including our bank accounts.
2707  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Evolution is a hoax on: July 17, 2017, 10:51:15 AM
I'm just a figment of something's imagination and so is everyone else. You think those are monkeys? Nope, figments too.

Where then do you suggest did the human race come from? As of the moment, there aren't any more reliable theories about where we came from aside from evolution. Though of course there are still a lot of holes about this theory that would have to be proven, i think its the best for now compared to all other theories that has way less scientific back up

Then you believe you belong to a monkey?  Hello sir, if that is the case then why there are still monkeys in the zoo and in the jungle.  Why the babies are not born hairy and just look like monkeys?  Why monkeys still do not talk?  Well, they are all theories and it is just merely a presumption so they just based it on the fact that there were similarities.  I do not believe on it and do not need any theories.  I know where I belong and that is enough. 
2708  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Pro Martial Law or Anti Martial Law? on: July 17, 2017, 10:47:02 AM
I am in favor of martial law.  Well, there is nothing really bad about it and there is nothing to be afraid of.  If my country will be placed under martial law I think I will feel much better and safe.   There is nothing to worry about the crimes because there were policemen and military everywhere.  Even if you came home late, for sure you will feel safer.  It is not about the dictatorship, I see it more as safeness and the feeling of being secured.  And as a law abiding citizen, there is nothing to be afraid of.
2709  Other / Politics & Society / Re: president duterde of philippines on: July 17, 2017, 10:43:24 AM
Yes, it is the only option.  People in Marawi and Mindanao feeling safe with the declaration of the martial law.  Actually if you will ask all the people there, they like the idea that they are being under the martial law.  There is nothing to be afraid of since the military and police men were very courteous with the people in Mindanao.  If you love and wanted peace, then it is okay for you to be under the surveillance.  And actually because of this, the parents of the Maute group and other members were already arrested and under the custody of the government.

Elon Musk has called the greatest threat to human civilization
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has described artificial intelligence as "the biggest risk to civilization." Moreover, the Isma urged the government to intervene and restrict research in the field of artificial intelligence. Perhaps "Terminator" is his favorite movie.

I do not know but why would it become the biggest risk to civilization aside from helping us in some job.  Maybe it will dominate the livelihood or certain jobs of human and then yes, I will agree.  But considering they are robots and human made them, then it will not be a threat.  You can destroy them using certain commands or spill some water to them and then they will die. Grin  I still believe that it will not be a threat.  Humans are still great than anyone here on earth.
2711  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Is there going to be WAR in China and India ? on: July 17, 2017, 10:30:09 AM
That will be really something like the end of the world because these two country were the most populated here on Earth.  They were really like the producers of people as they are the great contributor of humans.  Anyways and just kidding aside, I think this will not happened.  Yes, they are like into the boundaries but what is new to China.  They are always getting the land they do not own.  Maybe because they are too many and needed more lands to dwell in or the resources they have were not enough for them.
2712  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How do you feel about the death penalty? on: July 17, 2017, 10:04:29 AM
I feel sad when i here death penalty. If a people accuse and get into death penalty, what he/she feels and what their love ones feels when they hear that word, obviously they are getting sad and mad. All of the people in this earth have a right to changes and have a happy life. If god forgive people, why people can forgive other people? I just want is have a freedom and give love in this world.

Okay then go ahead talk to every prison all over the world and asked them to free all the prisoners.  Just be sure that when they are freed you will welcome them into your house.  Yes, correct that God forgives so why can't we?  Maybe we should forgive them but not their sins.  I mean, they should be charged and punished for what they have done.  If all will be get by saying sorry, what is the purpose of police and trial court?  If all can be forgiven then all we just continue to do evil and will not feel sorry for what they did.
2713  Other / Politics & Society / Re: VOTE Are you offended by these police officers? on: July 17, 2017, 08:49:28 AM
Not really because we are not on that very day that that incident happened.  We cannot judged the police officer based only on the report made because we are not on the place where that incident happened.  First what will be the motive of the police in the first place why he would do that.  It could really be possible that the woman will beat the police but I also think that shooting her is right.

I have not fallen into such a situation. But if it were me, I would say something about the advantages and benefits of btc to him or her, and whether  they understood or not which was up to them.

Well yes, after we have discussed and explained to them anything and everything about bitcoin it is up to them whether they will continue or they will like it.  But to be honest, I feel regret or like pity because bitcoin is such a wonderful tjing happened for me.  Through bitcoin I was able to earn an extra income and it is really a big help for my daily spenditures.
2715  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it too late to buy bitcoin? on: July 16, 2017, 03:34:06 PM
BTC Not to late to buy bitcoins but i suggest to buy bitcoins after the segwit in August 1. After that all things go back to normal so wait for it

Yes I agree it is better and would be better if we wait for that period to buy bitcoin.  We do not know what will happen on that day, August 1, the price of bitcoin could go up or it could drop.  If it will drop everyone will be happy and they will for sure buying bitcoins as bitcoins is tested.  It could give an income and if you have many bitcoins, it has the potential to make more and it will grow. 
2716  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do girls use Bitcoin on webcam sites ? on: July 15, 2017, 03:45:08 PM
girls do accept bitcoins on webcam sites

there are already few cam sites that accept bitcoin as payment i.e chaturbate

even few girls on reddit will swing few moves if you tip them with bitcoin
There were 3% female participants in bitcoin. This figure shows that bitcoin has not been popular with women. Female bitcoins are available but few people join the webcam. I think it is good idea to attract female members to participate in bitcoin. Because women also have business mind and get rich quite well.

Well maybe because girls were not into gaming and they could not last that lifestyle especially if the girl is something like happy go lucky person.  It is really a good idea for females to associate and be into bitcoin because they are good in managing financial.  Though bitcoin user females were small in count, we cannot deny the fact that they are good in it.  They are really good in balancing things like money but not all because I knew someone who really asked someone.

What would you do when you're talking to someone but then he suddenly talks about his hatred on Bitcoin, what would you react to it?

I've never actually experienced anything like this before, I just want to be prepared when it happened to me.

Those people who don't know all about bitcoin may hate it, but those people who knows all about bitcoin and obviously is not interested may not like it. If someone suddenly talks about his hatred on bitcoin, expect it that I'll do nothing. I'll not force him to like bitcoin, but I'll not stop telling him what bitcoin really is. I know that someday he'll get curious about it, and I bet that he'll try it out.

Certainly.  Those who do not like bitcoin will probably become curious when many people will hear about it.  Sometimes people were just scared or too afraid to try that is why they do not like it.  But if they will understand it and get to know the many opportunities that bitcoin can give then perhaps they will absolutely willing to learn it.  I really do not want to explain to people if they do not want to know something about.  I do not care besides it is there lost.
2718  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is instant way to get rich ? on: July 15, 2017, 03:25:54 PM
Why do you think bitcoin is an instant way to get rich?
When we have to try first get bitcoin.
Unless you know the future then you will become rich instsn.

Well for now it is not an instant way to get rich because we really have to be patient and took a lot of perseverance if we want to be rich with bitcoins.  Compared before that someone or people do have a good amount of bitcoin and if they still do then they are instant rich.  But the problem is, most of yhr timr those who have bitcoins before used their bitcoins to buy stuff.  Ending, no one left with huge amount of bitcoin.
2719  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you save bitcoin for fun or for future purpose? on: July 15, 2017, 12:27:45 PM
I save bitcoin for both, have bitcoin is very fun because we can get it which is quite easy and after converting it to fiat money I feel very happy because its value is good enough, we can buy the goods we want from it.

That is what our hard earned money should go for, have fun and of course to save for our future.  Sometimes it is too tiring to just work hard all through out so we really need a break and have some fun.  Only some of it.  Considering the price of bitcoins, it is of cause better to save more of it because of its high price.  It would be such a waste if you keep on having fun spending it.
2720  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin finally legal in India on: July 15, 2017, 10:54:40 AM
Considering the legalization of bitcoin in India means that the government have the right and they will regulate it.  For sure there will be laws on how they can use it and probably there would be tax.  Maybe the government of India saw the potential of bitcoin thus, they are legalizing it.  Is bitcoin illegal that they have to legalize it?
