This is an example of selective out rage.
Who is outraged, or backing Che in this discussion?
Well, selective lack of outrage.
Again. When witnessing a fight between a chihuahua and a pit bull, conservatives want liberals to express equal (or greater) outrage at the chihuahua for fighting dirty when attacked.
Liberals do the same things Conservatives do. Like Smear campigns and how they think their soooooooooooo. Smart and yet they propose Unconstitutional things that. Go against how our Nation works.

Slow down bro. Run your posts through Word if you have to, but your grammar is literally falling apart more and more with each post. It's not a race, Joker - take some time to be able to express yourself clearly.

I guess it's a coincidence that my dog is a pit bull.
That aside, we happen to have a chihuahua in the whitehouse so maybe the pit bulls don't have such an advantage after all.

My Grammar has gotten a little better. I am relearning what I was taught in school. It's not secret that I struggle how to use proper Grammar.
"But I take it you have nothing to say"'. About what I said to Marshall'.
What about employment and education background? Or is that considered "xenophobic" for some crazy reason?
The line needs to be drawn somewhere, and the "morality" of the dregs of society is not the one to set it. Most civilized people in the world (technological or not) would consider the actions of Breivik horrifying regardless of whatever his motivations were. His motivations were very likely self serving. Look at his history, and the image he intended to portray to people with his faggy self portraits and rambling, paraphrased manifesto
"Don't mercilessly kill people's children" seems to be pretty much a universally agreed thing. If society just accepts every single action because the individual who perpetrated it believed they were in the right, you and I and everyone else will understand what Abandon hope all ye who enter here really means
Giving him serious consideration as a political icon is insulting the very concept of modern politics. The only reasonable way to deal with this man is as a spree killer, nothing more. He does not deserve to be put on a pedestal. That is exactly what he wants. He needs to rot in a cell for the rest of his miserable life
70-80% of those involved in the revolution is a minority? What does it matter whether the revolutionaries had allies? What does this have to do with a mass murderer with a penchant for homoerotic self portraits and unoriginal manifestos?

That's where.
That is pretty interesting and rather tragic, but typical of frontier warfare that long predates the American revolutionaries. This massacre would be a better analogue to Breivik actually killing Muslims. If the Yankees went all the way to Britain and massacred British children it might be a closer thing

We would not have to deal with any of that if we would stop sending jobs over seas.
Only in part. Businesses had deserted the inner cities out of lack of social responsibility, and - yes, I'll say it - racial prejudice against the mostly people of color living there.
As far as those jobs being shipped over seas is concerned, that, too, is a matter of business putting their greed above the social contract they should be taking part in with the American people.

There is another issue: US manufacturers tended not not to upgrade/modernize/streamline their production efforts while the Japanese did. China got in the act with cheap labor and overhead.
You absolutely have to have efficient processes to compete with Asia.
The manufacturing arm of my employer has spent mega-bucks streamlining design and processes to compete internationally.
Then kudos to your employer.
Believe it or not, I am in agreement with you.

F*ck, I bet that was painful
One of the impediments to this kind of progress is culture. Management in some companies (to put it conservatively) has a tendency toward autocracy which doesn't lend itself well to progress toward global competition. Management also has the bean counters and investors screaming for more profits during these slow transitions from old to new. Non-management has job security fears of being streamlined out of a job. There is a painful teething period to go through that a company without it's collective head int the game might not survive.
No, trust me, not painful at all.
I would imagine that if we ever got an opportunity to discuss something other than politics or social matters, we'd probably be in agreement much of the time.

Well, selective lack of outrage.
Che's views changed quite a bit throughout his life. What you see there are his earliest writings when he was a young man travelling throughout the continent, and this was the first time he was exposed to those things - hence those writings are only his initial opinions - his opinions changed markedly throughout his life, as can be viewed in his personal letters to his second wife.
Later in Cuba Che had a mulata mistress (Zoila Rodríguez) who also acted as his second in comand for quite a period of time when in the east of the country before the 26th of July movement prevailed and started to rule the country. The country wide literacy programs where also his idea - and he was one of the main people to implement them. Even before that, when in the sierra mastera he would often help and teach his comrades who were illiterate to read and write. In the Congo, the cubans he lead there were all mulattos and negros - many of whom were handpicked by him and who he had great respect for. When in Bolivia he was also reliant on the campesinos, many of whom were indios and many who joined his attachment. Clearly for him to have done these things his attitude to women, indios, negros and other minorities cannot have been that bad.

Well Joker, exporting jobs is just one of the many features of something that we call
Capitalism. And since you want big government off our backs, stop telling other people(including corporate executives) how to do business!
You can have Capitalism with out sending jobs over seas. Plus China does practice Capitalism but do you see them sending jobs to our country? the answer no you do not. I would like to see American Made things by Americans, Not China Not India but by Americans. It should be the interests of our country first.
Do you Really expect private companies to put the nations interests first on their own accord? China does not allow outsourcing of jobs by chinese companies because the GOVERNMENT PREVENTS IT.
I hope you finally see why government is important and that unrestricted capitalism will ruin a country.
We should do that too.
As do I. And I also think we should disallow the exporting of oil refined by American companies on US soil(which is contributing to the high price of gasoline at the pump DESPITE a surplus in the actual supply of refined oil).
I have no idea what you're on about. Unfortunately, their proposals don't seem to mean closing public islamic schools. That means I'm still paying for them to learn qur'an verses instead of reading, writing and maths. I'm also still paying for the school counselor who refers homosexuals to imams for pray-the-gay-away therapy.
No line can be reasonably drawn. You can't objectively distinguish between morals on a scale of right or wrong. "Most civilized people in the world", in your case, means "most people I think are civilized in the world". The people who wouldn't object to what Breivik did probably wouldn't agree with your idea of morality. Your idea of morality is widespread, and even I largely agree with it, but it's not a universal truth.
Tell that to the Taliban, or to any side of Syria's current conflict, or to rebel factions in Liberia, or in Nigeria, or Congo, or Sudan. The people who are in charge there don't necessarily agree with that statement. I was recently linked to a documentary about Liberia that managed to completely convince me it was the worst place on earth - Sodom and Gomorrah but worse - with children on heroin, children murdered and eaten by rebels in ceremonies, the worst slums imaginable, and widespread and approved-of rape in makeshift brothels with no electricity. Their idea of morality is practically very different from yours about the merciless killing of children.
Of those involved. I take it you're counting those not involved as human waste, or slaves, or second-class white men. Had it been very popular as an uprising, most of the actual people would have been involved rather than most of those who actually had the time and means to take up arms under the leadership of some of the continent's wealthiest men.
They didn't just murder them. They accused them of participating in raids, of making them an easier target for the British.
Breivik accused the Norwegian Labour Party of being part of a fifth column.
Cut off our gas, and we'll shut off your water and electricity. Also your oil, so those refineries will run dry.
I just read something amazing. In Amsterdam, one in eight people are now officially mentally handicapped.
Of all children in special education for cognitive difficulties there, 80% are either Moroccan or Turkish.
And apparently, those aren't all there are, because their group culture doesn't always allow them to admit that their children are mentally ret*d.

Holy pejoratives Batman!
Is there a prejudicial concept of "mentally handicapped" at work there?

Of course it can, and has been. Its like you are pretending laws with ethical basis passed in nations around the world don't exist and this discussion of morality is the first of its kind. You don't seem to understand: What Breivik and others like him think is right or wrong is completely irrelevant.
Again, what does this have to do with Breivik? I have made it abundantly clear that I understand some people are morally bankrupt, and furthermore, that what they think is right or wrong does not matter to me or the overwhelming majority of the human race. You are arguing on behalf of perhaps a few thousand people who share Breivik's mindset. So your minority's moral relativism can suck it, buddy
Absolutely not, that is not what I said at all. I said they were not involved because they were either ambivalent or non-political. Do not put words in my mouth. I have also pointed out the statistics of involvement in the revolution are basically the same as statistics for US voter turnout to this day. So you need to either expand your criteria for criticizing political parties as "not popular" or drop this fallacious argument
Breivik accused the Norwegian Labour Party of being part of a fifth column.
Like pretty much any other massacre of the time period from either side. And yes, Breivik was insane and delusional, and you are attempting to justify his actions, I understand. I hope someday you will be given the opportunity to try and explain this to one of the survivors of his shooting or bombing. I am sure they would love to hear this from you.
