The real causes of mass shootings?
I'm actually more interested in the underlying causes of these incidents. If we set aside the discussion on gun control for a minute, I wonder is it the whole American way of life that's the problem e.g. poor social welfare, ridiculous working hours and a complete lack of a work-life balance for most people. Highly…

Call to boycott stores with Black Thursday Sales
Slowly Thanksgiving is being destroyed by these black Thursday sales. The premise that we spend one day a year just giving thanks for our families and what we already have is something we need to hold onto for our children and their children. Besides making employees of stores work during thanksgiving dinner hours we take…

The Echoes Of Ahmed's Clock In Muslim History
Yesterday while reading through the thread I was really bothered when a member here on the Train referred to him as a *little offended muslim*. He just wanted to build something to impress his teachers, something he could be proud of, something that would possibly allow him to fit in while attending a his new High school.…

Hard to imagine why they play "Imagine"
Why Paris is doomed: Some bum drags his piano, decorated by a "peace" symbol, by bicycle to the Bataclan theatre, and proceeds to play "Imagine." What kind of fool would think that an appropriate response a day after mass murder? Answer: Apparently everyone in the western world, because, of course, it "went viral." One…

Could You Kill a Baby Hitler?
I am not making this up. The NYTImes Magazine had a poll on Twitter. "We asked @nytmag readers: If you could go back and kill Hitler as a baby, would you do it? (What's your response?)" So if you go on Twitter, Baby Hitler is trending. Really. It is an interesting (but odd) question. Some of the comments are funny - “The…

Politicians sending others off to war
I'm watching (ok, mostly listening) to the "talking heads" on the news and they're talking about how a ton of politicians have zero military experience, but seem to be ok with sending others off to war, while they sit back in comfort. I'm really thinking Eddie or the band said something about this...or was there a protest…

San Francisco, the influence of mega-wealth and the great divide.
The changes talked about in the article linked are difficult for me personally because I have strong ties to and for much of my life lived near and/or in San Francisco since the early 50's. But this is about far more than just my own personal feelings. A key point is in the article that illustrates a growing divide: "This…

Two Billion Miles
I only really read these boards, and post once in a blue moon, but I saw something tonight on the channel 4 news I felt was worth sharing.
