Treatment Packages
http://www.phc.gov.ph/services/treatment.php

The prices are in Philippine pesos. 44 pesos = one US dollar. For instance in that first dual chamber pacemaker surgery with a private room 210,152.00 PHP = 4,792.54 USD. How much would such an operation cost here? You can be sure it wouldn’t be under five grand.

We have most of the guns & ammunition, businesses, hunters, outdoorsmen, fisherman, veterans, military, law enforcement, shooting sports enthusiasts, other weaponry, preppers, engineers, mechanics, farmers, ranchers, blacksmiths, machinists, gunsmiths, inventors, technicians, energy producers, tinkerers, etc..

[miliantnutcase]

Pretty much anyone productive to society lol...

If you see this video – and the decision to release it — as anything other than an outrageous effort to taint the jury pool, then you, too, are one of the terrible people who think black lives don’t matter.

I can only strongly stick my middle finger up at the author for a statement like that

[Little Ray]

The only thing in the middle of the road are yellow streaks and roadkill.
Stand for what is right to heck with worrying about “tribalism.”

[dfwgator]

are one of the terrible people who think black lives don’t matter.

Most of those "terrible people" are other blacks, judging by the prevalence of black-on-black crime.

[qam1]

They imply Tribalism as if it a matter of race. It is a matter of culture, it is about defending ourselves against an inferior culture, a culture that the majority of black people do reject,

[tanknetter]

Yup.

I also try to point out the ability of different members of the groups you mention to disrupt the food distribution networks.

Big cities, iirc, are only 9 meals away from people starting to starve. If Liberals truly understood that their continued existance is based on people they despise not yet reaching the point of saying “ENOUGH!” to their antics they’d quickly settle down and start being much more restrained, civil and respectful.

[tanknetter]

I think the author was trying to be sarcastic with that one.

Failing badly, but still trying.

A Bunch Of Terrible People Have Raised Over $130,000 For Darren Wilson

[tanknetter]

Yup, and i’m guessing Libs would flip if they knew how much of that money was probably coming from other cops or family members of cops.

Of course, they should really be afraid. I’m getting a strong sense that cops, regardless of their race, are furious over what’s happening here. It’s not whether the cop was justified or not, it’s that he was being completely railroaded before any sort of investigation to determine that could even start. Cops have VERY long memories about stuff like this, and will act accordingly.

outside review of all deaths in police custody

Was Brown in police custody when he was killed?

When police take a life, should they investigate themselves?

Isn't there usually an investigation after a death involving the police?

“Eric Holder, to my surprise, appears to have helped calm the fracas in Ferguson by reassuring these parents that the investigation will be thorough and fair.”

I read the article up to this point, then I stopped reading.

Double, no triple Yuch!!

The racist Holder is a wanna-be Heinrich Himmler. If he could muster the logistics and manpower, which he cannot, he would march 10 million whites into the ovens.

Maggie Gallagher is not aware toward her political surroundings. She needs to go vacuum the rug, dust off the kitties and go bake a cake. She’s not cut out to be a serious investigative journalist.

I’d prefer a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting, Maggie. Thank you.
