Ponderable

Your experience does have an affect on your point of view. Being male and being white gives you different experiences than what women and people of color experience.
Do you think Maxine Waters got elected for being smart, or because of her experience?
I believe she fits both of your listed criteria.
 
I was driving the the Walmart parking lot when I saw an old lady in one of those store owned electric shopping carts, she had 2 cases of beer driving it to a handicapped parking space. Pretty funny.

Because it never occurred to you that the handicapped might drink beer? Or do you just make a habit of laughing at the handicapped?
 
I have already stated multiple times, that we have won the lottery being born now and here. Do you know, I had advantages that others did not have. Yes. Do I feel guilty about that. No.


You do feel guilty or you would not present it as you do. You should NOT feel one ounce of remorse.

I think he was laughing at the handicapped person who made a very poor choice. Two cases of beer and handicapped.....well let's see how bad we can make this lifeboat case.
 
This is full of indignity and racism, I don't know how this can happen in a civilized society. I am ashamed of the human race.

Laycee Barragato Gibson, 28, was visiting her parents in Laguna Niguel Friday afternoon, May 5, when she got a call from a high school friend.

“You’re not going to believe what’s going on at Hennessey’s,” the Dana Hills High classmate told her. Barragato Gibson rushed over to the Dana Point pub.

There, she saw workers setting up an inflatable climbing wall.

The tavern was preparing for a Cinco de Mayo celebration – which included the opportunity to climb a border wall for a drink coupon.

What’s more, the “free drink” ticket was labeled a green card, complete with a cartoon picture and a pseudonym such as “Isabel Orlando.”

“I thought, ‘You’re pulling my leg! No way a business would do this!'” Barragato Gibson, of Los Angeles, said. “It was such blatant and casual racism.”

She snapped photos and got the word out on social media. “I wanted to deter people from going,” Barragato Gibson said. “But who knows? Maybe I just encouraged them.”

Her Facebook post was shared more than 150 times over the weekend.

What a marketing principle ......

Now what would have been real good is if they had guys on the other side of that wall with paintball guns
and handcuffs....and to get the drink you had to recant your Liberal tendencies.

Funny, and try to get over the wall on their way OUT of the bar.

And you're not white? You've had experiences as a person of color or female? I think they call that cultural appropriation. You are not qualified to speak for me either.
 
Why do we need a wall?
MEXICO was second deadliest country in 2016'

http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/09/americas/mexico-second-deadliest-conflict-2016/
(CNN)It was the second deadliest conflict in the world last year, but it hardly registered in the international headlines.
As Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan dominated the news agenda, Mexico's drug wars claimed 23,000 lives during 2016 -- second only to Syria, where 50,000 people died as a result of the civil war.
"This is all the more surprising, considering that the conflict deaths [in Mexico] are nearly all attributable to small arms," said John Chipman, chief executive and director-general of the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), which issued its annual survey of armed conflict on Tuesday.
