Global Peace Index
#1
Thumbs Up 
Global Peace Index
Will someone kindly clarify - why so many Central and South Americans are " fleeing danger in their homeland"  and coming to the US?

According to these folks - it's a pretty dumb choice - peace wise ...

http://visionofhumanity.org/indexes/global-peace-index/

As far as peaceful places to live -
the US comes in at #128 - well behind Chile, Costa Rica, Equador and El Salvador.

I'm just gue$$ing but there might be $ome other motivation$ going on.....

A$ylum.... 

$ure...

RE: Global Peace Index
Yes i'm sure these people read the global index before fleeing. Of course they are all just evil liars lying about the reason they are fleeing to steal all your jobs and money ,And all those aid organization are all just evil liars too . Cong rates you have exposed the vast  evil immigrant plot against the United States because you can link to a website  .  Dodgy Wacky

You really are a rabid leftist cartoon, ain't ya?


.....

The funny part of your nonsense is that youi nsult the people you pretend to support. (You imply they' re too stupid to research a destination)

The blithering STOOPID part of your spewing is that you make a bunch of assumptions because that' s what myoptic extremeists do.

You think I am anti- immigration. Stooooopid assumption.

I have said this more than once - but you just ignore it because it doesn't fit your moronic worldview.

We need to streamline legal immigration. We need to streamline work visas.

But we CAN'T let everybody in that tries to sneak in..

And yes - applying for asylum when your real motivation is financial is trying to sneak in.....

You're an idiot if you don't think a large portion of those people trying to come in are gaming the system. Smart people do that if they think it will work.

Nope but you might want to get some cream for that butt hurt

Nope I'm not insulting them .I'm pointing out in interviews many of them admitted they didn't research the US and know little about it because the didn't have the time or luxury of doing so . Not to mention some of them didn't even want to go to the US but felt it was the best option. So no I didn't say or imply they were stupid . I was saying they didn't have the time of didn't feel then need because they believed they knew enough to leave or simply didn't care.

Nope i'm voicing a bunch of observations . Then rejecting you phony defenses.


Quote:You think I am anti- immigration. Stooooopid assumption.
No you demonstrate that then try and cover it up with phony appeals to policy 


Quote:I have said this more than once - but you just ignore it because it doesn't fit your moronic worldview.
I have not ignored it . I have rejected it as your position because it comes off as fake and contrived 


Quote:We need to streamline legal immigration. We need to streamline work visas.
I don't believe for a heartbeat you want this implemented nor if you were in charge you would implement it . 


Quote:But we CAN'T let everybody in that tries to sneak in..
Considering the context of the word sneak is you accusing thousands of people and a heap of aid agencies have all lied to Sneak people in . Kind of moots your earlier statements .


Quote:And yes - applying for asylum when your real motivation is financial is trying to sneak in.....
Considering you have yet to back this a motivation other then to call most of them cheats and liars as well as a heap of aid organizations ......


Quote:You're an idiot if you don't think a large portion of those people trying to come in are gaming the system. Smart people do that if they think it will work
No the fact you think that all these people are a bunch of cheats and thieves makes you something far worst then an idiot

Central American family around the breakfast table when suddenly

"Hey kids let's go take long dangerous journey with a bunch of strangers so we can go cheat the American system . That's how devious and evil we are , And make sure to use your Jedi mind powers on all those journalists, Aid agencies , And government official as we lie to them about all the awful shit we endured back home "

RE: Global Peace Index
So tell me... why do you want to live in a country so low ranked then?  Why don't you move to a country with a higher ranking?  Say Georgia.  Or Jordan?  Or Maybe South Korea?  Then again, they're all ranked pretty low.  So maybe you should just move to Qatar.  It's almost top 30!  

Melania moved from Slovenia (ranked 8th!) to the US.  Yet, curiously, you've said nothing about her.  I wonder why...  You've clearly got some skin in the game.  perhaps there's some other colorfull reason for that.

I'd like to see how those figures are calculated & ranked.

The link wouldn't open for me, so I couldn't check out the index in any meaningful way.

But wow, the USA is ranked 128th? That's like bottom half of the world isn't it? Is that still above the "shithole" threshold? Asking for a friend.

Never expected a "USA Sucks" kinda thread from OLB. Life is full of surprises I guess.

Edit: Got the link to work. Read through things. Rough conclusion: USA sucks. Still surprised OLB started it all.
