I understand that, but it's just that the links seem so overly America/Obama-centric, I'm inclined to believe that it's some Freeper-types that are just pretending to be Canadian as a gimmick. Maybe I'm wrong, but I remain skeptical.

The ritual slaughter required to produce halal meat includes just as many prayers as kosher slaughter, and it has the same objection in that it is specifically prohibited that the animal die from exsanguination and that the spinal cord not be severed and thus can lead to a needlessly prolonged death for the animal being slaughtered. Engaging in pointless animal cruelty because you think the magic man in the sky wants you to is just as grotesque no matter which god's nutty dictates you think you're following. Of course, the :freep: objection to halal is 100% about the Muslim element and 0% about animal cruelty, which I would guess they mostly come down in favor of.

What? I don't think you're up to date on your Abrahamic slaughter techniques.
Exsanguination is not prohibited: it's encouraged.

The Hebrew term shechita (anglicized: /ʃəxiːˈtɑː/; Hebrew: שחיטה‎, [ʃχiˈta]), also transliterated shehitah, shechitah, shehita, is the ritual slaughter of mammals and birds for food according to Jewish dietary laws (Deut. 12:21, Deut. 14:21, Num. 11:22) The animal must be killed "with respect and compassion"[1][2] by a shochet (Hebrew: שוחט‎, "ritual slaughterer"), a religious Jew who is duly licensed and trained. The act is performed by severing the trachea, esophagus, carotid arteries, jugular veins and vagus nerve in a swift action using an extremely sharp blade ("chalef") only by a qualified shochet. This results in a rapid drop in blood pressure in the brain and loss of consciousness. According to Jewish religious sources, the animal is now insensible to pain and exsanguinates in a prompt and precise action.[3] The animal can be in a number of positions; when the animal is lying on its back, this is referred to as shechita munachat; in a standing position it is known as shechita me'umedet. Before slaughtering, the animal must be healthy, uninjured, and viable.

You're right, I meant enjoined rather than prohibited. Which is the problem, because exsanguination can take minutes and it doesn't necessarily mean instant unconsciousness for the animal.

Part of the weird Tea Party love for Coolidge is probably about having a presidential idol whose term was long enough ago that there aren't memories of his various apostasies and betrayals of conservatism the way there is with Reagan. In general, the Tea Party seems less crazy about Reagan that pre-2008 Republicans. Mostly because they're more crazy and can't abide a man who legalized immigrants and sat down with the Soviets.

I thought it was a great article. I'm not getting the allegations of condescension some are making. It seems to be a realistic, and relatively sympathetic, assessment of the situation.
The death of "King Coal" is a big problem, and that's unlikely to be reversed. But what do you replace coal with as an economic driver?

Parts of Appalachia are at high enough elevations, and scenic enough, and have highway access good enough to encourage resort development -- golf clubs, ski resorts, spas, second home communities, and the like. I'm not suggesting that the locals are financially able to join Linville Golf Club or High Hampton Country Club, but such places do provide jobs, and do add to county tax revenues.

The real problem areas are those parts of the mountains whose terrain is too rough for large-scale agriculture, but not high enough to encourage the development of resorts. Much of eastern Kentucky and West Virginia fall into this category. As the article so graphically describes, there is literally nothing to do in such locales.

Some new highways might help stimulate the economy, by improving connectivity between new manufacturing plants in Appalachia with markets in the Midwest and Southeast. I-73, through extreme western WV, is on the drawing boards, but is years away. Extending I-26 from its current terminus near Johnson City, TN north across the western tip of VA to Lexington, KY would be a boost, as well.

These people live in the most beautiful place in America, but the “living” is hard. Yet behind the drug-scarred faces lies a deep reverence for Jesus Christ. A lot of those people will clean up on Sunday and make it to church. They count on their attendance at church to get their foot in the door at St. Peter’s gate. And living right along with them are those of us who work and try to rescue as many as we can, because we love them and respect them in the place where they are at the moment.

Israel has become a more complex thing in the far-right in recent decades though. I remember pictures of a march where the nationalists (I think it was the EDL in London or somewhere) were waving Israeli flags because they hate Arabs and Muslims more than the alternative, and the anti-fascist counterprotesters included anti-Zionist Jews waving Palestinian flags because they believe in a peaceful and non-imperialist solution.

The soi-disant paleoconservatives you find at places like The American Conservative and Antiwar.com are also pretty anti-Israel. The American Conservative comes across as weirdly leftist at times (their official line during the Bush years, and maybe still, was that paleoconservatives should generally vote for Democrats rather than Republicans, and they tend to fawn over people like Noam Chomksy), but reading between the lines, it's hard not to suspect that at lot of paleoconservatives are at least partly motivated by antisemitism.

It was either a personal grudge attack or he converted to Islam in my opinion.

In today’s paramilitary police state, we may never know the truth if the latter was the case.

Somebody please explain to me how this mutt walks up to the second floor of a busy mall with a loaded shotgun.

That was my estimation too. But the new reports of his backpack having a bunch of homemade IED's has me wondering about motive. Could be was a self-converted wanna-be jihadist. Just didn't have the contacts to get good training. The explosives were apparently crude and simple devices with household common components. All that though makes it odd that he offed himself after killing just those two, and not continuing whatever presumably larger plan he had.

Was he confronted? Could be. Maybe the two, or one of them, was the target after all and he simply came armed for an extended search or stand off? Dunno. It's curious. Maybe wasn't actually ready to deal with the carnage he created and it overwhelmed him. It's an uglier thing than it seems in the movies.

I'd like to know that there are -witnesses- that saw him kill himself. So that we know he wasn't merely a third victim and the real shooter left the backpack and shotgun on him and walked away and out of the mall.
