Ted Rall posted:That’s what my editors asked me. Even if the cop hadn’t been mean, why would I have asked him to recommend a good restaurant?

Now we now why the sad bj cries. Seriously, Rall can gently caress right off. Wonder if Bors will let him crash on the couch.

Note that Rall was freelancing for LA Times, and he was never actually on staff (David Horsey also draws for the LA Times as well). Rall doesn't even live in LA; he's based in New York.

^^^ So Zedd is checking another man out in the shower now? That goon's explicit Day by Day fanart may become cannon after all... loquacius posted:General question, is the "Planned Parenthood wants to bring about BLACK GENOCIDE by aborting every black baby in America" meme something that anyone actually earnestly believes or are they just attempting to Troll The Left by calling them The Real Racists? Do teenagers attending religious schools count as anyone? I think a lot of people believe it, they just don't care about it beyond using it for leverage against abortion access.

Ted Rall may be a poo poo, but since when are police not allowed to also embellish their accounts of an event and when is a cartoonist going to be fired for publishing what is, blatantly, an act of libel about Planned Parenthood?

Coupled with his lazy accelerationist slant and ego in general, and I just wish this rear end in a top hat would go away. He's the kind of liberal that he regularly mocks, and without a shred of self-awareness.

The police had an audiotape which supports them and refutes Todd Role.

I think what they're saying is "why shouldn't Ted Rall be able to lie about the police and not get fired when there's all these other idiots making poo poo up about Planned Parenthood?" which... yes, if you want to make it a race to the bottom why not allow all that

The thing that kills me is that Rall made up a whole bit about a crowd of common people railing against the horrible injustices of a police office talking to him (and then recommending a nice restaurant in the area). It's the same kind of audacity that Rall used to write Ted Rall: An Erotic Life.

I wonder if Kirschen will try to take credit for Pollard being released, or if there will be any comics about how Obama only did it as a result of political pressure, too little too late, what a weak and dickless leader, etc etc etc Who am I kidding of course both of those things will happen.

This happened fourteen loving years ago, and Rall expects us to believe his memory of events over a tape recording. A smirking cop flippantly tossing his driver's licence into a sewer is exactly how Rall would remember himself dropping the loving thing. Remember- he wrote a story about being called a fag in high school and spending the entire year putting together or fantasizing about potentially-lethal pranks to get back at the "bully" in question. Including sabotaging metalworking equipment and dropping bricks from the roof. And he expected to be seen as the good guy.

They freed Pollard from prison but keep him in the United States. Isn't that just moving him to a bigger cell?

He is a rightwing ultra-nationalist who genuinely believes that Israel is a bastion of all that is good and the moral compass of the world. Thus any action that could possibly aid Israel, is a just, selfless, and divinely inspired act.

Spun Dog posted:Maybe it's late in the day, but I can't parse that. Audio tape or not, what Rall described is plausible and he didn't make claims that can be certified as libel or grounds for firing him (why not fire him for his dozens and dozens of lovely cartoons?). Saying that Planned Parenthood is slaughtering babies to sell their organs for profit is libel until some information comes out to support that claim. The only bulletproof defense against libel is facts and, at this point, there is not a single shred of evidence to substantiate the claims. Numerous cartoonists have published cartoons that may cross over from parody/satire into libel. The People Vs Jerry Flint established a very broad definition of parody but that was a case involving a cartoon about a person. Planned Parenthood- charitable or not- is a business in a sense and printing absolute lies about it is damaging and, in theory, against the law.

Every single person who thinks Rall is lying has gone to the trouble of saying they aren't exactly cheerleaders for the LAPD either. I'm willing to go out on a limb and say most of these same people also think the Planned Parenthood bullshit is a travesty, and might even be illegal.
