Climate change has emerged as a paramount issue. No s***. Lol. I don't think it's said enough how extremely stupid Trump and Pence are.

Also important to note that she stole this bit from Gwar.

Should be donating less to DNC and more to DSA. That's my opinion on the matter.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ May 23, 2017 -> 09:03 PM) It sucks that there is no solution. The empathy, do-nothing route is CLEARLY not going to stop terrorism. Targeting Muslims is CLEARLY not going to help. The problem with the million+ immigration to Europe is not the Syrian refugees. It's the people from other areas piggybacking it, saying they lost their passports. And everyone knows that's happening by the tens of thousands. You can't deny that. You'd be a f***ing idiot to think people aren't using it as a smokescreen. A real f***ing idiot. Pretending to be a refugee is a free ticket to get out of African and other Middle Eastern failed states. Just so happens many of those people blame the west for collapsing their governments and funding Daesh. Syrians are pissed we keep funding Daesh. I don't know if there is an answer. I don't think temporarily banning travel from failed states without record keeping is the worst idea. It's a nice middle ground between doing nothing and going too far. Nobody has an answer that's great. But folks love to fingerpoint at those that are at least trying Many of those people blame the west for collapsing their countries. I wonder where they would get that crazy idea from?

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 22, 2017 -> 12:05 PM) Yeah I know. I just don't see how their blatant intolerance for others' beliefs changed anything. This is from someone who is vehemently against religious based philosophies. Blatant intolerance for others beliefs. I'm sick of hearing this saying. They didn't agree with the speakers beliefs, so they did a walk out. Should they have been forced to sit there and listen to Mike Pence. Maybe by force?

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 22, 2017 -> 11:58 AM) My thoughts as well. Most of those kids had their parents pay 200K to get that education. To walk out for some attention on the day of celebration is pretty petty to me. Par for the generation though. It's a protest. It's not new to this generation.

The fact that we continue to supply arguably the most oppressive government in the world with billions of dollars in weapons is pretty disgusting. What Saudi Arabia is doing in Yemen is going toward would could turn into genocide and we are playing a big part in it. I don't want to ever hear some dumb politician talk about how evil Iran is while we buddy up with Saudi Arabia.

I had him pegged for prison. Wouldn't surprise me if that's where he ends up.

Chelsea Manning Is a Free Woman: Her Heroism Has Expanded Beyond Her Initial Whistleblowing Some good news.

Lmao.

Frelinghuysen Targets Activist in Letter to Her Employer

Let's All Celebrate These College Graduates Raining Boos Upon Betsy DeVos It's the little things.

Love that Presidents are still getting advice from Kissinger. The fact that it still happens is disgraceful.

Can we get Alex Jones as the next FBI director? Him or Kid Rock. I'm cool with either.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 9, 2017 -> 12:25 PM)  Wisconsin’s Voter-ID Law Suppressed 200,000 Votes in 2016 (Trump Won by 22,748) Voter suppression works very, very well for the GOP. I give that guy credit for even going that far. Most people would try a few things and then if they still weren't able to vote they would probably just forget about it. Maybe forever. Scott Walker is human garbage.

Blade Runner 2049 has a new trailer out. Looks fantastic.

Cutler seems like he would be awful in the booth. Hey Jay what did you think of that play? Uh, I don't know. Whatever.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 4, 2017 -> 03:56 PM) Medicare + most other countries in the world say otherwise though. Imagine thinking Medicare was a failure.

Imagine being raped or sexually assaulted and then having to make the decision to go to the police or not because you are afraid about how it could affect your healthcare. We live in a barbaric country.

49ers generally seemed confused as to what the Bears were trying to do. Lynch just seemed happy to be getting all those picks.

The trail of tears was so good. The media was very unfair to Jackson. Sad.

Drafts grades a day after the draft are pointless. That being said, that Bears draft looks awful. He pretty much gambled on every pick. He could get lucky with Trubisky, but I don't think Pace knows what he is doing.

@RapSheet 1m1 minute ago For what it’s worth, the #49ers did have a real and legitimate offer for someone to come to No. 2 yesterday. #Bears offer was best value. Makes more sense.
