  1. They just said on the news that its 50 killed and not 20.
  2. Ya Virgin America is great. A few of the times Ive flown with them they handed out free tablets to use on the flight and had free wifi.
  3. I honestly am surprised nobody has offed Zimmerman yet.

  5. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 07:17 PM) That response was the equivalent of "yeah, well the jerk store called, and they're all out of you!" Tweets have timestamps. Check how long her response took versus that weak sauce. Trump bragging about having no campaign infrastructure is also a weird thing that will help doom him in November. Theyre both acting like children.
  6. Donald J. TrumpVerified account ‏@realDonaldTrump Donald J. Trump Retweeted Hillary Clinton How long did it take your staff of 823 people to think that up--and where are your 33,000 emails that you deleted? This election is gonna be a circus
  7. QUOTE (Tex @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 05:14 PM) Agreed. The more I try to state my case the less clear and further away from my point I get. I think I understand what you mean. I think the easiest answer is just that getting behind the wheel of a car while drunk can have severe ramifications on everyone around you, and its one of the main causes of death in the country. Whereas if someone is drinking and puts themselves in a risky situation like hooking up with someone they dont know they still arent putting anyone else at risk.
  8. QUOTE (Tex @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 05:01 PM) I agree. But isn't it interesting that if the person places themselves in a dangerous position (behind the seat of a car) we assign blame to them. If they place themselves in a dangerous position, (Making out with someone) we do not blame them. Again, it feels like the right thing to do, and there really isn't a better public policy, but I do see a contradiction. Perhaps to close the perceived gap on my part, the people who are around the drunk and allow them to drive should face a similar consequence as does the rapist. They have some control over the drunk who is too impaired to exercise sound judgement. Making out with someone should never be putting yourself in a dangerous position and I think that line of thought is dangerous.
  9. If two people are both drunk and having sex technically both wouldnt be able to consent and it would be difficult to prove rape after the fact. However when one party is either unconscious or is actively saying no and/or fighting back would be the major difference imo to driving drunk. Also, for the most part DUI's are the result of someone who obviously is impaired making a dumb decision that could effect everyone around them, but its hard to say there is a lot of malice intended. On the other hand someone who is willing to rape someone who is passed out or force themselves on someone has a much different intent.
  10. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 03:32 PM) I don't think I have any problem with a judge being recalled over one particularly bad sentence. Do we generally trust this judge's decision making process if it on one occasion led to this sentence? Can you give an argument why we should just assume this is "one bad sentence" and not representative of the way the judge deals with cases in general? I think the fact that the judge was also an athlete at Stanford is pretty damning.
  11. This election is tough. For how much I dislike Hillary there is still no way I could vote for Trump. Im just going to vote for Gary Johnson.
  12. QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Jun 7, 2016 -> 03:54 PM) The outrage over the light sentence is totally justified. He should have gotten far worse. The outrage over the father's letter seems overblown. The father believes that it was some kind of consensual sexual act between 2 drunk people. That makes him an idiot (or delusional), not someone who thinks rape deserves a slap on the wrist, which is what everyone is portraying him as. I think most reasonable can understand a father wanting to believe and defend his son. It was the way he chose to word everything that just made it come across so much worse. To actually say your kid has suffered enough because he doesnt enjoy steak and potato chips anymore is really a slap in the face to the victim. You can stand by your family without saying things so dumb and insulting.
  13. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-36459504 Apologies if this has already been discussed in here but I didnt see it anywhere. The sentence this kid got is so absurd I dont even know how to react to it. Also, the letter from his father on his behalf, actually saying his son shoudlnt have to go to jail for "20 minutes of action" because hes already suffering and doesnt enjoy eating steaks anymore. Is there anything they can do to about this now? After reading the letter the victim wrote you have to hope there is something more they can do to this guy.
  14. I finally finished season 1 of Bloodline. It started out so slow that when I first started watching it I gave up on it but Im glad I revisited it. The last few episodes of season 1 were really intense. I watched the first episode of season 2 just to get an idea of where they might go with the story and it looks like its gonna be pretty interesting.
  15. Twitter is saying Kimbo died of a heart attack.
  16. QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 6, 2016 -> 01:45 PM) Without question. I dont like to count my chickens before they hatch because 3% are either mutated or dead... Its not misplaced, its in the bottom of the bay! Also Hi, is your refrigerator running? This is Mike Hunt.
  17. That Kevin Love trade is going to go down as one of the biggest mistakes an NBA franchise can make.
  18. QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 6, 2016 -> 09:12 AM) As a child I'd pretend to be friends with Harriet Tubman and we'd be planning our great escape. Last nights episode had some of the best random one liners this season.
  19. QUOTE (HuskyCaucasian @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 07:49 PM) I didnt get my IL License Plates Renewal Form (or an email). I just noticed it expired today. how do I go about getting it renewed? Go to a currency exchange and you can buy one, you just need your VIN
  20. Hillary is gonna do everything she can to avoid debates. The only way she probably does it is if she gets to hand pick the moderators and the terms.
  21. QUOTE (Ezio Auditore @ May 27, 2016 -> 12:01 PM) I put Fallout down back in December after getting to Level 28 or so and I've picked it back up to finish it and get all the trophies. The Benevolent Leader achievement/trophy is such a pain in the ass. I never got too deep into playing with the settlements and didnt even want to bother with that one. It seemed like it would take hours and hours of grinding
  22. QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ May 25, 2016 -> 05:24 PM) What does that mean? You picked a "break-up" date? Id imagine he means pick a date to end the long distance part of the relationship.
  23. QUOTE (Brian @ May 21, 2016 -> 02:34 PM) Are there any Photoshop like programs that are free? https://www.gimp.org/downloads/
