    Two Trains Crash on Line 1 of the SD Metro

    Yes, human error tends to be involved in accidents. MSD can't be compare to Amtrack, it lacks the death toll.

    Two Trains Crash on Line 1 of the SD Metro

    Experiences don't matter in the face of evidence. You have a data set for the metro system, and one for general transportation. You're choosing to look at the wrong place to form an opinion. That's explicitly silly. It's not really debatable. You're then taking it overboard because apparently...

    Two Trains Crash on Line 1 of the SD Metro

    You're welcome, people tend to have a really bad sense of reality because of their biases. To the point they ignore actual evidence for the sake of their delusions. Just trying to help. We can all improve.

    Two Trains Crash on Line 1 of the SD Metro

    There is metro crashes everywhere, what an insane thing to say despite knowing that it is highly improbable considering it has only happened once in almost 2 decades.

    Vaina is not even close to being vulgar. It has a neutral connotation. You will not find one example of it being censored anywhere. That is because it means "thing" and thing is a neutral word. Vulgar language needs to inspire "dirty" imagery. I don't say this enough, but people should look...

    Posting an obviously AI generated blog to prove a point is hilarious, peak expat reading comprehension. Read things before posting them, kiddo.

    Mob in Haiti capital burns to death 13 suspected gangsters

    I'm sure shooting people would resolve the issue of an entire society lacking the desire and capacity to create institutions.

    There is fresh video of them butchering and cannibalizing suspected gang members and this man thinks guns will solve their issues. Goodness gracious.

    'I was born here': Thousands in limbo in Dominican Republic

    Imagine feeling entitled to citizenship despite the law and desire of the country you live in.

    Lmao, so even when data is not available you want me to make assertions in order to satisfy your arbitrary created rules about disagreement. Genius. I think the personal D.R. stats vs USA statistic should be enough of an example for you to acknowledge that my M.O. I don't make up random claims...

    Oh oh, Norberis is not happy about this...

    My reply doesn't make any sense? You asked for my personal experience and I gave you exactly that. I just happened to add a study from one of the countries that you mentioned that happens to have an updated research. Stereotypes are helpful but you can't replace them with hard data. If you're...

    Personal experiences don't matter. Why artificially reduce it to men when it was a general claim about D.R? But I know about 2 marriages breaking because of emotional cheating through internet chats. 1 marriage breaking because of actual cheating. 1 marriage continuing post man cheating...

    I know more about Dominican culture than you will ever be able to know in your life time. My experience is not based on an artificial and superficial frame of reference created by money disparity and being an outsider. You don't have more experience than me. The only people that claim...

    I don't use my personal experience to generalize entire nations. I brought social media and the west's promotion of quirky new age behavior as parameter for "acceptability" ON A CULTURAL LEVEL which you brought up. Unless you think the content produced by individuals about their particular...

    Oh oh, Norberis is not happy about this...

    Do you believe things cease to exist when you close your eyes? Your personal experience not being equivalent to general reality has been my premise since the beginning, lmao. You said it was "acceptable" and the people knowingly partake in open relations, meanwhile in the west is openly...

    Meanwhile men all over the west are coping with being in open relationships or "polyamorous" relationships producing some of the most awkward videos known to men. Maybe if we compare D.R to the 1950s we could have a debate resembling reality.

    The difference is the FBI keeps track of homicide and fire arm use around the country, Mexico keeps tracks of homicide. So there is actual research and stats, the other is you having a gut feeling that it happens more often or do you call it a spidey sense? They're completely different issues...
