It also gets the origine of "leatherneck wrong" the collars were for parades for posture.

edit: Not just parades, but it was meant to make them look more martial.

That Muslims have brought abounded universities and public pools; that Christians, Jews, and Hindus have been banned from serving on juries where Muslim defendants are being judged; Piggy banks and Porky Pig tissue dispensers have been banned from workplaces because they offend Islamist sensibilities; ice cream has been discontinued at certain Burger King locations because the picture on the wrapper looks similar to the Arabic script for Allah; public schools are pulling pork from their menus; on and on and on and on. America. By not fighting back, by allowing groups to obfuscate what is really happening, and not insisting that the Islamists adapt to our culture, the United States is cutting its own throat with a politically correct knife, and helping to further the Islamists' agenda.

Even better, of course pork would be pulled from a public school menu if the majority of their students have dietary restrictions. I imagine these same people don't bitch if a school with a majority Jewish student body does the same thing. Hell, even if it was just a sizable minority.

So this guy on Facebook is arguing for a national language for private communication (not just official documents), which would be an expansion of the federal government's power. You might be able to make a First Amendment argument against it.

Uh, "might?" Legally requiring all written or verbal communication to be carried out only in a single language? Also :wtc: how do people come to hold these opinions. What even in the gently caress.

Watching that dog poo poo trailer again, it makes me dizzy with all the weird random poo poo they threw in. Apparently they threw in a disabled guy to this school shooting biopic about a pious woman. I can only guess that they will throw in a spurious scene of his mother saying "he's such a blessing, and to think I was going to abort him!"

The whole part with jumping into the water saying "you aren't spiritual or anything right?" Is going to show how love can bloom even without premarital sex!

It'd be wrong of me to not bring up this production companies movie Old Fashioned. It's billed as the Christian alternative to 50 shades of Grey. It's about a man who fears being alone with any woman he's not related to for any period of time for fear they'll inevitably have sex. He gets a new tenant, and forces her to slowly give up her life, her independence, and any ambition she has in life other than having children. Then he marries her in the baby food Isle of his local supermarket, which is the first time he kisses her - on the cheek.

It's supposed to be romantic.

Actually he's going abstinent to make up for his transgressions during college years. See he was a frat boy and made a shitton of amateur porn. They show scenes from the videos which look less like stupid drunk hook ups, and more like he's blackmailing girls into a snuff film.

It's honestly kinda fascinating. It's like looking at the world through the eyes of someone who cannot comprehend any use for having a relationship with a woman other than to marry them and have kids.

I'm thinking there's enough here to make a seperate thread, but on the other hand, all these movies are just adaptations of awfully vectored macros.

Pretty Little Lyres

Lemma posted:

Another actual email. Of course I'm not reading the whole thing, but I did skim a particularly cute bit about how the famously weak 18th century British navy took to disguising their ships with 'Murican flags to scare those evil Muslims away. Also probably something about how evil African Muslims took slaves, unlike the honest people of Europe and North America. Behold:

As a 2-minute summation of what's wrong with this fairy tale:

- yes, the US sent Naval forces to depose the ruler of Tripoli for demanding tribute... and to then install his deposed brother who would presumably treat us better.
- yes the US sent some Marines out to fight, but it was like literally 8 Marine officers, and they hired several hundred mercenaries in Egypt and hiked across the desert to Tripoli's territory. Said mercenaries were also more than half Muslim, the rest Greek mostly.
- despite the song, they never got as far as Tripoli, they got into a battle at the town of Derne, managed to win, and before they could march onward they got the news that the Tripoli pasha had conceded to US demands in exchange for being left in power. So hooray and return to base.

It is actually a cool story, a classic ripping yarn, but by no means some grim and apocryphal war of civilizations. Plus it's pretty absurd to be all "abloobloobloo Muslims didn't respect other nations sovereignties" during this time period where Europeans were happily sauntering around most of the globe overthrowing brown-people governments. Not taking any moral stance, just noting that what Tripoli was doing wasn't particularly unusual by standards of the time, it's not like the Brits wouldn't have gone apeshit if a ship from the Chinese Empire or some African kingdom had just sauntered up the Channel minding its own business.

It did happen attributed primarily to Cassie Bernall but also attributed to Valeen Schurr (wounded) and Rachel Scott (killed) even though witnesses said that the only one that probably happened was Schurr. Nobody even remembers Schurr though and most of this "Do you believe in God?" poo poo gets placed with Bernall or Scott which I think is a new thing since I almost always remember people talking about Bernall when they bring up that question.

Still, don't let facts get in the way of your piety and persecution complex, evangelical Christians. :jerkbag:

They could have at least chosen the student that had the most said about her to use that 'Do you believe in God?' line rather than the one that has the nonprofit non religious foundation devoted to her.
