I WANT to be a good, compassionate person who feels for everyone and doesn't want anyone's life ruined. But man... gently caress that guy. There's a real justice in him purposely trying to incite violence and piss people off, absolutely nothing happening except that a few protesters had their minds opened to the good in Islam, and then this dude just got weighed down by all the people he pissed off.

Quote of the night, "Here's a bold embrace of internationalism: let's join the rest of the world and go metric." ~ Lincoln Chafee, during his Presidential campaign announcement. The ball's in your court, literally every other candidate! We deserve to know where the field stands: are you on the one yard or one meter line?

I haven't seen it mentioned here yet but, the Tamir Rice investigation is finally over; 7 months it took, and the results have been sent to the prosecutor and, I guess, will now go to the grand jury.

It's a great tactic for an underdog candidate. Now reporters are going to ask all the other candidates what they think about Lincoln Chafee's proposal to convert to the metric system, each time mentioning his name. Martin O'Malley should start championing statehood for Guam. George Pataki could take on abolishing the paper dollar.

Hopefully this will finally mean the US will switch to the metric system - internationalism or no - the whole multiples of 10 system is very elegant - I use it most of the time. If anything it simplifies global trade. One product can be made to one spec anywhere.

Speaking of that, CNN reports that the Muslim guy who the Boston PD iced was ready to behead Pamela Geller before getting impatient deciding to take out as many cops as he could instead. That number being 0.

Joementum posted:Paul Trusten probably wasn't expecting to get a call from the Wall Street Journal tonight. He's right, it's a topic that a lot of Americans have been weighting for. The degree of excitement around the nation about changing systems is measurably larger than it has been in a long time. From Wall Street to Main Street, in back yards of suburbia to the kitchen tables in peoples Ohms, and in the shouts and cries of people marching on their feet in the streets, it won't be furlong until the conversion begins, because this is a topic that really meters to so many. The people want a liter on this issue! Sieverts.

That number being 0. As much as i would have liked seeing her screaming her head off at the block in some lovely back alley before some dumbshit ISIS recruit slowly cut her head off. I am glad none of it happened. for one thing, geller would then be a great martyr for her lovely cause and the right would make her a bigger saint the reagan. at least the ISIS dudes are dead and/or captured.

He's exactly like the Bundy Ranch yahoos in that he thought waiting out in the desert armed to the teeth hoping for your perceived mortal enemy to confront you and take the first shot was an awesome idea that couldn't possibly backfire in any way. He really needs to give Fox News and his crazy right wing echo chamber sites a rest for a while and calm the gently caress down. I'll bet a camping trip away from TV and the Internet would do wonders for his mental health.
