IMHO, it shows that he is an excellent liar. He lies several times during that documentary. His company broke the law several times in trying to strong arm resident Scottish homeowners into giving up their property. One lady (Molly Forbes) who is 90 years old apparently STILL to this day does not have water.

Yes, take some time off and a word of advice if I may....

I used to take this site way too seriously. I used to think, incredibly, that it had much more influence on the real world than it actually does.

Yes, it has some influence upon the real world, but I think it's rather small. Most people come here with their minds fully made up and argue their viewpoint. This site is infested with unpaid trolls and people who are oblivious to the black experience.

Learn what you can from here that is useful and discard the rest. Don't engage with people who will never get it. You and I are both white, and we both get it. Don't waste your time. Like pinboy told me one time, don't engage with rabid right-wingers over the Vietnam War. Well, I don't any more, and I won't engage with people who obviously have their minds made up. I feel it's a waste of time.

Best wishes to you!

When will Donald Trump drop out of the 2016 campaign ?

I think he will take us for a ride until just before the RNC convention. We'll see.

question about texting versus phone calls

Like most of us on DU, I grew up in the era before texting. So, when I buy and use a phone, its primary use is for regular phone calls. I only got into the texting thing maybe a year ago, with my older brother.

Do younger people, say under 25, primarily use their phones for texting these days ? Sincere question, thanks.

oh, had to add this of course:
