Loyalists vs rebels, yes. However, most of Canada is still Protestant so
there is already similarity there. The United States has also been a
melting pot traditionally, but now it is more of a multicultural society
like Canada. Clearly, that's a bad thing, but it means that there is
similarity.

Militarily, I would imagine that having American bases in Greenland
would be interesting to the Americans. They have a base pretty much
everywhere else.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent. States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.

I was just talking about Ford with my wife yesterday. If I remember
correctly, they were the _only_ American automotive company strong
enough in 2008 not to require a bailout from the government. Since then,
they have jumped on the electric vehicle train which has cost them a
fortune since nobody wants those cars, at least not from them. Even
worse, their F-150 has just gotten a recall affecting several hundred
thousand vehicle, exacerbating the damage. I imagine that they'll be
requiring government assistance very soon.

Jesus F. Christ! This idiot shows his idiocy yet again!

Ever hear of Thule AFB? Dumb question.

The US built Thule as a major SAC AFB during the beginning of
the Cold War.

Thule was also the site of a famous Broken Arrow incident
when a B-52 crashed and the conventional explosives in the
H-Bombs went off.

Camp Century is also nearby but is long defunct.

I hate idiots, and this idiot is at the top of my list.

The US already HAS at least one active base there now.
Used to have more during the Cold War.

Saw a docu recently about a base they embedded deep in
a glacier - complete with its own nuke reactor. Soon
found out that ice was not nearly as stable as they
imagined ... the whole thing kinda sunk in and fell
apart.

Then a couple weeks ago there was a tourist photo of
that glacier ... bits of the mil base were now oozing
out the side of the ice.

There are a number of micro-settlements all around
the Greenland coast. Hard to say how many are US
or EU radar stations - they won't tell.

My grand-daddy visited Greenland in the late 1800s to
see if there were any farming prospects. Answer - NO !
Can't even put in roads, gotta hop from fjord to fjord
by boat and the glaciers are too unstable to try and
drive on top of.

Not the best explanation, Beavis. Let's just say that taking it up the
ass is a fate reserved for people whose manhood is questioned.

You gotta let go of that macho BS, and just realize being a bottom
simply feels good. One need not lose "manhood" over it. That's in
the mind.

My favourite depiction of Greenland is the one in the TV show Vikings
where Kjetill Flatnose and others get there and immediately create
borders for each family. They quickly get to starving and fight over the
carcass of some whale that washed up ashore. In the end, Flatnose is all
that's left and he's overjoyed that he's the king of this vast,
uninhabited wasteland.

Not to mention they're a mile or two deep!

Been reading an interesting book "Climate Crash"; it starts out discussing
exploration etc. of Greenland in the first 4 chapters. It's a little
out-of-date (2005).

Look at it this way: boys get raped by older men all the time and are
irreversibly traumatized by the experience. If it felt good, they
wouldn't become such damaged people in life. I imagine that this has
happened to you too in youth.

Don't feel bad about it, it almost happened to me after I watched my
good friend get raped by the neighbourhood pedophile when I was a child.
I must have been eight at the time. He got assaulted, I ran away. I
still think about how close I came to being damaged in that way and
wonder what happened to him since we moved from that area soon
thereafter. I don't think I ever saw the poor kid ever again. In fact, I
don't recall him ever leaving the house and he lived two doors from me.
I would not be surprised to discover that he's a homosexual today.

I probably was molested as a toddler but I don't have a memory of it,
if so. I was sexually assaulted once at 17, but it was oral on me,
not anal rape.

In the same way that people who were victims of a car crash often
suppress the memory as a defence mechanism, it is quite possible that
you did the same with the molestation. There is no way a man becomes a
proponent of anal sex being performed on him without there being some
sort of assault.

This is the truth! I remember when I was in school, the english teacher
liked negro, while the german teacher said that was racist and preferred
colored.

I stuck with the negro. I've made my choice! ;)

I don't understand why the US doesn't just bribe their way to greenland?
Promise every inhabintant 1 MUSD in subsidies or some kind of government
money, and then have a "vote".

Since the EU is bound by democratic values, and, since greenland legally
is allowed to vote for independence, they would be forced to accept a yes
to greenlandish independence.

Once independent, it is then up to them to discuss joining the US.

Argument over, and the EU would not be able to criticize a democratic vote
by the people.

This is the truth. The way to understand Trump is to look at what the man
does, and not listen to what the man says.

Europes politician still need to learn that lesson.

my language be double-checked for political correctness.

I think they have one already.

"The first airports in Greenland were built by and for the United States
defense. The first and largest was Kangerlussuaq Airport in 1941,
followed by Narsarsuaq Airport in 1942 (and now-abandoned USAAF
airfields Bluie East Two and Marrak Point, both in 1942) and Pituffik
Space Base in 1953 (although Pituffik is not operated as a civilian
airport) and Kulusuk Airport in 1956. Due to their distance from major
settlements, these were not initially used for civilian travel."

You really want to go there? Would you rather have a lab or a pit bull
minding the kids? Humans have had their thumbs on the scales but their
breeding attempts have resulted in a wide range of breeds with differing
characteristics. In the case of humans, it was natural selection for the
most part although in many cultures a preference for lighter skin
prevailed.

Would you prefer 'breed' to race? Then you could call people breedists.
How about subspecies?

Let's look at the keeper of absolute truth.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_(biology)

"Races may be genetically distinct populations of individuals within the
same species,[4] or they may be defined in other ways, e.g.
geographically, or physiologically"

Ive always felt colored to be more offensive than nigger, and negro
probably the least offensiive term, but its all stupid. Ive heard nigger
both used as a term of endearment and as a term to describe a stupid
black person as well - by blacks.
In this country as in Africa, if you want to refer to anything, you
probably use a far more detailed description. Like afro carribean, or
Pakistani, or Indian, or Chinese, or arab, or Welsh or Scottish, or
Irish...or Iranian...Because no way does one word cover everything that
isn't 'just like you'
