I was angry at first too, but ALJA isn't bad/dumbed down at all and it's nice to see an American-focused news station actually discussing news.

Exactly, and their local bureaus are awesome. I remember watching one afternoon and hearing some really insidery type analysis of the local big industry in town and was blown away at not only how good it was, but that they had gotten it before anyone else. Great stuff.

zoux posted:Yo what's up with the IP thread title? Several children got killed while playing on a beach in Gaza by the IDF, and journalists on hand reported they were running for cover after the first shots took out a "Hamas beach shack," and shortly after a second salvo caught them.

zoux posted:Yo what's up with the IP thread title? Quote from an NYT article regarding Palestinian children dying in an Israeli attack. Though to be fair, the quote goes further with the speaker speculating that the IDF might have assumed those running away were militants. He then says that he finds that assumption unlikely, because he assumes that the IDF's recon and surveillance equipment would be sophisticated enough to show that those were likely children. Article

Given that Israel is an apartheid those kids would probably have become militants at some point!

Last year I posted this article about the 49 year old, unemployed former pizza delivery man who lived with his mom who was of course running as the Libertarian candidate in the city's mayoral election http://www.newhavenindependent.org/index.php/archives/entry/libertarian_candidate_calls_for_more_guns/ Well I'm reading an article today about a federal grant aimed at improving bus service in the city, when I though the man in the leadoff picture looked familiar http://www.newhavenindependent.org/index.php/archives/entry/950k_federal_grant_looks_to_boost_buses/#cmt Of course the Libertarian who is unemployed and lives at home also uses the buses and isn't happy about their service.

How shoood I poot it? http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way...ontent=20140714 quote:Marxist philosopher Slavoj Žižek — who is one of the world's most prominent living public intellectuals — has been accused of plagiarizing from the white separatist magazine American Renaissance. (The magazine calls itself a "race realist" publication, while the Southern Poverty Law Center calls it a hub for "proponents of eugenics and blatant anti-black racists.") quote:In a statement emailed to NPR, Žižek wrote that he had been sent the words by a friend who said he was free to use them and that he did not realize the friend had in turn borrowed words from Hornbeck. Žižek added, "As any reader can quickly establish, the problematic passages are purely informative, a report on another's theory for which I have no affinity whatsoever; all I do after this brief resume is quickly dismiss Macdonald's theory as a new chapter in the long process of the destruction of Reason. In no way can I thus be accused of plagiarizing another's line of thought, of 'stealing ideas.' I nonetheless deeply regret the incident." And so on... Thank you very much.

A sign from the Lord that he wants you to bone. I mean, are you willing to take the risk that it is not?

This discussion caused me to google this https://www.google.com/search?q=fanfic+sex+with+jesus and I'm still browsing (I have a spare 5 minutes here). I think "Hot Jesus/Muhammad SEX FICTION." is my favorite troll so far.

Now imagine this as a pool, I’m going to dive into this head first and probably get flamed for what I’m about to say. But Most people of any Branch of the Christian faith aren’t anymore Christian then Adolph Hitler himself was, Christian stands for Christ Like which means acting as Jesus Christ would act. Jesus Christ accepted everyone and helped everyone, Christian does not mean follow the guidebook that was written, re-written, translated & Re-translated centuries after Jesus Christ died. His “Followers” basically turned their backs on his teachings, spreading hatred and bigotry simple as they saw fit. Jesus Christ Wouldn’t like most so called Christians, as I don’t like most So called Christians. You shouldn’t need to label yourself Christian, it should be within your actions to act Christ Like. It should be clear without ever saying a word, people should see it without having to see you at a church. As the saying goes “Going to church makes you no more Christian, then going to a garage makes you a mechanic”.

Mauser posted:Public school is probably the most depressing subject you could possibly discuss with people The response would be either: "All of my kids already graduated, why should I care about other people?" Or: "I don't have any kids and don't want any, giving away those tax dollars does nothing for me, it's a waste of MY money." Then people scratch their heads as to why the US educational system keeps plummeting.
