Not sure what the 70s and 80s has to do with it.

My point: In comparison, Toronto is the shining city on a hill. American cities are (still) cesspools. Rooney was describing how great America is, I think he has it wrong at least as far as large cities are concerned.

        Here as well, for the most part. [NT] - Frank L - 2:31pm 11/1/18
        In casual conversation, "university" and "college" are synonymous. - NedoftheHill - 2:55pm 11/1/18
        In common parlance here, yes. University does sound pompous. In other places it is common parlance - Frank L - 4:49pm 11/1/18

      - nobody thinks critically because media has removed the perceived need [NT] - ChicagoIrish - 1:37pm 11/1/18
        True, cable news started that trend. Social media has exacerbated it. [NT] - iairishcheeks - 2:45pm 11/1/18

        shit, we're probably spending more than that with this thousands of troops stunt - ChicagoIrish - 1:59pm 11/1/18
        latest estimate is 1.2 billion. [NT] - LanceHarbor - 3:31pm 11/1/18
        Yes, but what if there's a Russian in the caravan? [NT] - Cole - 9:25pm 11/1/18
      - I just want people to enter the country lawfully. Do it right like eveyone else has to. Silly me. [NT] - Cole - 1:47pm 11/1/18
        Which laws have the caravan people broken? [NT] - Rooney - 1:50pm 11/1/18
        They seek to break immigration laws/crossing borders illegally. [NT] - Cole - 1:58pm 11/1/18
        How many did in the April caravan? [NT] - LanceHarbor - 2:04pm 11/1/18

        No idea. Tell me. [NT] - Cole - 2:11pm 11/1/18
        Thank you for showing that Rooney and Chi are right. - LanceHarbor - 2:15pm 11/1/18
        You rationalize a caravan of people coming through our Southern Border. I think you prove them right [NT] - Cole - 2:18pm 11/1/18
        Of about 1500 that started, abut 400 requested asylum with most passing the first test. - LanceHarbor - 2:21pm 11/1/18
        
        they're asylum seekers; that's not illegal. - ChicagoIrish - 2:04pm 11/1/18
        They are migrants, not asylum seekers. That distinction changes their legal status. - NedoftheHill - 3:01pm 11/1/18
        76% of the asylum seekers in the April caravan passed our first test of having a "credible fear." - LanceHarbor - 3:07pm 11/1/18
        Please explain. - NedoftheHill - 3:37pm 11/1/18
        This took 3.5 seconds. [NT] [LINK] - LanceHarbor - 4:24pm 11/1/18
        Well, then you get 3.5 seconds off of your time in Purgatory. [NT] - NedoftheHill - 5:15pm 11/1/18
        
        So wrong it's laughable. You are a lawbreaker if you illegally cross the borderand then seek asylum. - Cole - 2:07pm 11/1/18
        
        So they haven't broken any laws yet. This isn't Minority Report. - Rooney - 2:03pm 11/1/18
    - Trudeau would be rational about it, I'll bet. - Chris94 - 1:26pm 11/1/18
