Haha that's exactly who I'm seeing.

I actually went for my pre-op consult this week. And my main complaint with him so far (understand I have OCD) is that during my -ahem - checkup, he did not wear gloves...

You use lotion on your sack, don't you Sam? :eek:lol:

Probably has the feel of a Crown Royal bag.

Please tell me somebody else saw this:

Racism Immediately Alleged After Black Bag of Poop Found on Steps of Vanderbilt?s Black Cultural Center ? Then the Truth Comes Out | TheBlaze.com

In short,

Some black minority students held a rally, issued a petition to the dean, the following morning a small black bag of feces was found on the steps of the black cultural center. The minority group wrote a scathing post on FB. Then....

....Student police discovered the culprit....

A blind student whose guide dog took a dump. She picked it up and didn't know where the nearest can was so she put it next to the nearest building.

The humanity. The horror.

Or better yet, on you third sample (independent lab), you take it to the wrong lab and the nurse says in a horrified voice "we don't do that here".

Had a friend who mistakingly had a nurse tell him he needed to bring it in a ziplock bag and didn't give him the cup to put it in. Awkward.

There is something pretty scary about the implications of this and what happened at Missouri and ISIS though. People are getting tense and I fear bad things are going to start happening. This country is on the verge of being a powder keg of racism with a lit fuse. How long before we are putting Muslims and refugees in internment camps like we did the Japanese? Scary scary stuff man.

That's a whole lot better than the 'internment camps' Germany had. Would it really be that bad to put refugees through a place where they are held separate from our citizens long enough to do some background checks? My great grandparents had to stay a few months at Ellis Island because they were "without papers." I just don't see what's wrong with that.

I'm going to move along and pretend you didn't just say internment camps are OK. Please do not continue this conversation with me.

If don't allow a terrorist invasion through an unnecessary refugee settlement here we won't need internment camps. There's nothing wrong with living in Turkey. They are fine over there.

That's not at all what I said. I think I may not have been clear in my points, there were two and after reading my post again, I can see where it might have muddled into one.

First off, I was referring to the Syrian refugees, having to go someplace besides the U S population before they are vetted. Like my family did at Ellis Island. A short stay at a comfortable, secure facility before they enter the country is a small price to pay. If they don't want that, they can go elsewhere.

Secondly, The point I was making about the internment camps you look back at the world through the context of time, the ones the US had were far less terrible than what else was going on at the time. The Chinese were murdered by the Japanese, and the Germans murdered, well, everyone. We put people in some camps and they survived the war. Moreover, read your history. There were internment camps for Italians and Germans too.

This third point is not a reiteration of my first post, but something I was thinking about as per your last comment about a race war and what scary stuff could come down the pike. I was not alive in 1968 (the year of chaos: assassinations of Dr. King and Bobby Kennedy, the riots at the DNC, etc) but I was in 1992 and had family in Los Angeles at the time. I really believe those two times were more on the brink than where we are today in race wars, but the media is more powerful now, and it is driving this (for good or bad). There really wasn't a 24hr news cycle in 1992, and there definitely wasn't in 1968, and it's scary what could flare up when the need for 24hr ratings are fanning the flames of controversy.

Don't want to derail thread. I just want to say to my vol family.

Regardless your stance on the gun issue, please take the carry permit class and get training on how to shoot. Even if you disagree with guns, they are legal. Don't be a fish in a barrel. Show the crazies that if they want to take us out, we will go out swinging.

13 rounds on my back right now since I'm off work, and I've spent 2 years teaching my wife (and sending her to classes because anyone married knows how terrible the phrase "teaching my wife" really is) how to handle a weapon.

Very good advice.

Also good advice about the kids. They need to be taught the proper respect for guns as well.
