Some of Port Richmond's blackwhite residents assert that newcomers' presence touches a nerve. Mike Mason, 47, a teacher who works in New Jersey, said the arrival of Mexican immigrantsNegroes had changed the texture of the community.
"America has got to do something as far as immigrationintegration goes," he said. "In the morning you can see the streets lined with undocumented workersgang members ... That's always in the back of people's minds."

 most of the suspects were described as young blackwhite men and investigated for biasHATE crimes, a grand jury has indicted only one of seven people arrested on a hate-crime charge. The media, however, released the names and occupations of the white guys; who have lost their jobs, have received death threats, and are permanently branded via internet as racist, possibly white supremacists.




  ah. The hypocrisy just slays me.



I'm kind of glad I live in an area that doesn't have "gangs" and violence, but I think I would be really unhappy if I had people who came into my country, who don't have jobs and don't plan on finding one, and hang on the streets all day. I find that actually a waste of a life.

Which version of VB?

Funny, when I read about how you were "taught how to take a computer apart and work around inside of it," I flashed back to 9th grade, Moscow PS 76, where I was taught how to take apart an AK-47, clean it, and put it back together. Blindfolded. You know, just in case the Imperialists attacked at night.



Oh ivan, this made me giggle.

Anarchy / Re: Grown ups playing pokemon - is it OK to?

I find that if an older man plays pokemon, yes he is immature, but also he has a wide imagination. It's not that he has problems, or he hasn't mentally developed, unless the issue of playing pokemon inteferes with his life, to the extent that it stops him from going out or socializing, then it's totally fine. The problem if you do play pokemon is that you will have to find someone who doesn't mind you playing pokemon, as a lot of girls would probably find that a bit weird. But I guess that's what love is for...

Personally, I find that the face is pretty much the most important because it's what you look at mostly. But yknow, I also find personality a important factor.

I think the confusion here was on Sandy's part. ivan was just commenting on the fact that you said you watch porn whereas somebody older would say they're looking at porn. There was no need to modify your post, we all love porn here. My first post modification was necessary though.
I am confused, sorry. I'll try and be more clear, pretty scary when you come to a new forum lol

It occurs to me that playing Pokemon is not a reliable indicator of a person's general age.

However, when someone says they "watch porn on the internet", I know they are young.

Only young people "watch porn on the internet".

Old people "look at porn on the internet".

At 2400 baud, you don't "watch" anything except the progress bar.


I agree completely with what you have said, and I have modified my intro. I am not a young, adolescent idiot, I do have morals. I am not going to lie and say I don't watch porn, of course I do, let's just keep it out of here yes? The mistake is on me.

Sure, I could agree to that. Nice to meet you too. :)

Hey my name is Alex, and I am re-posting my intro because it was crap. I am 16 years of age, and I have officially left school in the Uk although I am going back. I am weird, and I strive to be weird, I like being an individual, in the limits of not being an attention whore. I like to design websites and I am trying my hardest to get to grips with PHP at the moment. I like to GIMP, and mess with images, not that I am any good. I am here just to see what the community is like, meet new people, and just find a place to talk. I am no stranger to forums, although I can make mistakes regarding what I say. Like now, my first intro was a bit, stupid. I like to read comics and watch old SciFi movies like Battlestar and The Last Starfighter. I'm alright, trust me.
