I'm pretty sure almost every country does that if not dare I say all the countries in the world offer that am I not correct?

Pretty sure they all do - I was born in an RAF Hospital in West Germany (my father worked for the British Army of the Rhine) and my parents had about 4 or 5 days to get me registered as a UK citizen, otherwise I would automatically have been given German citizenship.
I am serious, and stop calling me Shirley!

Quote from: Jordan Duram
It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe? Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned and in whose name the most horrendous acts can be sanctioned without appeal?

Quote from: Supreme Court of Canada
Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

The person chose their wording carefully. Most, if not all, countries in the Americas offer Jus Soli, but it's not too common in other developed countries and when it does occur there are specific limitations.

That said, Canada disagrees.

That reminds me when Fox accused Webster's of having liberal bias for saying anchor baby is a derogatory term.

Spoiler'd and linked because the picture is very graphic.

I just deleted yet ANOTHER person off my friends list on Facebook because they posted THIS bullshit on their feed.
This is one of the benefits of deactivating my FB account for a semester. I have to put up with fewer idiots this way.

1- They have pressure on the wound to keep him from bleeding out.  You don't just move a severely injured person without stabilizing them first numbnutz!
2- I dunno, he looks like he's in shock to me.  And steal a wheelchair?  Have you ever been to a marthon?  Especially in one as big as the Boston Marathon there's multiple spare wheelchairs all over in case of people fainting or heat stroke and so forth.
3- Um, no. He's not.  It's a guy who lives 2 towns over from me fuckface.

As a Bostonian and someone who knows people effected by this horrible incident, please go fornicate with rusty hot iron poker.

Also, with #1, the guy is also not bleeding all over the place because the gentleman in the cowboy hat is literally holding the wounded man's major artery.

For those not willing to click the spoiler but wondering what's there, it's the full, uncropped photo of the man with both legs blown off...yes, THAT one. Some douchenozzle then wrote a bunch on B.S. that went like this (I'll paraphrase)...

CONTENT OF THE STUPID GRAPHIC:
(Famous ' Boston Marathon Guy With Legs Blown Off' photo, uncropped & uncensored in all it's heart-breaking, harrowing & stomach-churning glory)
1.) "Dood! He's not bleedin' all over the place, man! He looks just fine! Nevermind the fact that I'm totally ignoring that he's, like, totally grey in stuff! FAKEY!"
2.) "What sort of bozo would steal a wheelchair? Did they swipe it from some sweet old lady or sumffin'? FAKEY!"
3.) "The wheelchair guy is really some solder dood who lost his legs in the war, man! They like put on fake bloody things on his stumps n stuff! FAKEY!
"

Conspiracy nuts are ridiculous! I hope you un-friended him!

Also, the identities of the men and what became of "Leg-less Wheelchair Guy".

This article tells the story of both men as well as the elderly marathon runner in orange in another iconic Marathon Bombing photo.

The soldier just has the same long face. Very little else is similar, anyways.

Also, there's a tourniquet on the guy's leg to prevent him from bleeding out anymore. Along with a few other things. Also, dude in cowboy hat is helping hold the guys together, too.

My dad is on Facebook claiming that the media censored out blood and gore from later broadcasts to cover up the truth that it was fake.

...Wouldn't the government want to add MORE blood and gore, in that case?

If you look at it logically, cannibalism has great potential to simultaneously solve our overpopulation and food shortage problems.

I wish I could clone my late father and send him with all his wisdom, warmth and courage to mentor people with dads like that...my heart aches at the thought of how many young folks have fools, even if they are lovable, for parents :-\

I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.
