Racist Loudmouth POS in the Gym: What could I have done?

[Camel Jockey]

Actually, your gouvernment has had horrible spending habits for 30+ years straight. Did you know that the US gouvernment has been running on a budget deficit all but like 2 years during the last 30+ years?

Most professional economists in Europe laughs their asses off at the US Gov's spending habits

But this debt is to China and due to the changing world economy, it'll be much harder to erase than deficits of the past. Don't you agree?

What Bush is doing isn't Keynesian economics, but stupidity.. His spending is hardly helping this nation

[Oki_Rej]

...with Gore in office

    Gore in office. HAHAHA

as disappointing as Bush has been Gore in office would've been catastrophic

[Camel Jockey]

The one's who take risks, innovate and create don't give a flying hoot about what others think about them.

Of couse, but Bush is doing anything but that.

If you think most of the world having a positive view of the this country prior to Bush taking office was a bad thing, then you're a moron.

Aside from a few idiots, most held this country in a favorable light prior to the whole Iraq debacle. Of course you never having traveled abroad wouldn't know that, rather you'd have some 'us against the world mentality' and make your silly assumptioms.

The spending habits has been fucked up since the 70s. They magnified under Bush, but the general pattern has been around for a long time.

Debussey does not know enough about the situation to accurately analyse a potentialerasure of the deficits, but yes, the US will have issues erasing them (if they every will?)

Bush and company = clear cut idiots, yet, their agenda might be deeper than what we know?

But Debussey still loves Americans for their "American dream"

The worst is you failing to make any connection to between original leaders and Bush in office. Leaders like Roosevelt(someone who was unpopular, but is remembered as great) cared about what people thought, but still swayed from popular opinion because he knew what was essentially good for this nation; Bush is nothing like that and you know it.

Your point of view is dangerous, because that view is reserved for idiots(such as muslim terrorists), but not the World's most powerful nation. The US has a duty of care, and has had it since World War II.

We ain't got no lunk alarms.. this isn't planet shitness!!!

You are right. I should have said something, instead of looking at him with disgust...

The worst thing is, Debussey (who loves the US) has spoken to many war veterans in Norway, all who were part of the secret resistance during the german occupation in WW2 (talk about brave fuckers). They, and their contemporaries ALL LOVED the US, and spoke so fucking warmly about the United States of America for their kindness, helpfullness, and for being the "leader in progress" and all of that shit. Now, a few decades later, the US = far from where it was, at least in many areas.  


Shit, even in the 1970s, many norwegians viewed the US as the leader in progress, and "always a step ahead" and so on. And Norway was a fucking hillibilly country back then (and still is to a certain degree )

No...I simply adhere to the premise of and practice self-responsibility.

No matter who is in 'office'...well, I work my ass off, and make sure that my path is delegated by me and me alone.

My opinion is that one man who does not even know I exist will never, ever effect my life in any way.

I have several WWII vets as patients.

And yes, they are very famous and special to me.

THEIR opinions are the only ones that count to me....and they all love it here and STILL think it shines.

The old war vets had balls of steel, and a working morale not seen today. Shit, todays youth are lazy and spoiled. Those guys (and gals) had a working morale, courage and superior characters. Very very cool people that can teach us all a lesson or 100 about what being a man is all about.

Norwegians was actually the healthiest they have ever been during WW2, even though they had the least amount of resources.

You mean if I had to wait?

I can get an MRI done the same day requested

[slaveboy1980]

I never imagined I would find this shit at my university gym, but it happened today.

While I was working out, these two other guys were carrying on a conversation, about the army (one of them is a marine, apparently), politics, etc... One of them started to get loud while talking politics, ranting about how much he hates Obama.

It was loud and obnoxious, and it escalated to him calling Obama "That Muslim Ni gger" and saying that no way will white Americans vote for a Muslim "Ni gger" guy to be president, and the like. This went on for several minutes.

In the meantime, I tried to finish my workout and resist the urge to throw a 75-lbs dumbbell at that POS. My disapproving stare-down and look of disgust eventually made him come up to me and apologize... but it was just a half-apology, since he coated it in excuses like "I just hate liberals so much"...

I accepted his apology. I didn't want to report him to the kids in charge of the gym, because I didn't want to look like a snitch. But I also feel guilty about not having stood up to him.

What should/could I have done? Serious thread, please help folks!

nuttin. your in the gym to workout, not to talk politics. get in, get out.

Lol, no, by "not in operation" Debussey meant that your ass was not functioning

Yes.

The major problem with youths today , aside from generalized moral corrosion...is the fact that they don't want to work and or wait for anything and they want everything handed to them by mom and dad.

You're right, as usual.

People still have many positive things to say about Clinton, but when the current admin. comes up they're attitudes change. And it isn't just rags in dunes, but other civilized cultures too(like Europe) who now have negatives opinions about the US.

No...I simply adhere to the premise of and practice self-responsibility.

Your ability to that is directly tied to government policy. You doing your thing in a free market economy isn't an excuse for the government to be iressponsible.

Compare and contrast the economies of the 90's to now; it was easier then to climb the ladder. It is harder now due to inpart bad government policy. Can't tell me debt we can't erase is a good thing. Your children will be paying that, and I will too, along with my kids.

My ability is the same as everyone elses' ability in this country, delegated by the choices they make.

Well, you could talk to that guy who got run  down by a car the other day...ya know, where nobody helped him; and you can talk to today's Lotto winner:

One guy will say: "These are tough times..."

The other will say: "Man, things are great and I love the USA"

So, what you say does not apply to everyone

Exactly.

Many people here thought Clinton was cool after his Lewinsky scandal

Yes.

Kids today have it too easy. You don't develop work ethic without having some incentive to do so, or by being tested in some way. This is one of the things Debussey like about all the WW2 war vets it spoke about: After the war they all worked really really hard and created good lives for themselves, and they always had great moral integrity.
