I will not hear a word against him.Aurubin posted:What if my hero is Hitler? Checkmate libtards. The guy ripped rear end constantly. High fiber high protein vegetarian diet.

Speaking of that racist comic, I caught a little bit of Matt Taibbi being interviewed by C-Span Book TV this afternoon. They had this guy call in that started right off with whining about how "the left" doesn't let him get a word in edgewise, and how he hoped conservatives would get a chance to speak their piece to Taibbi. The kicker was that he started on this mini-tirade about how black and Asian populations are so dangerous and commit so many more of the crimes than whites. He wanted Taibbi to respond to some BS about how the standard of life was better in more homogenous places in Europe, or something like that. Taibbi, to his credit, mostly just shook his head and said that he felt sorry for the guy. I was just surprised (though I know I shouldn't be) that such blatant racism was being spouted on C-Span (albeit from someone calling in).

C-SPAN chat - let me present you with, "A Trump Supporter and Her Rooster" Back story - I was working from home during election season and had C-SPAN running on the TV in the background. I kept hearing a rooster crowing and finally stopped what I was doing and rewound it on the DVR. This is what I found - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3-WkdkDk44

While I agree the police need to calm down, comparing two fictional cops (one of which being a dimwit not entrusted to carry more than one bullet at any time) in a town of dimwits victimized by dimwit villains for the sake of plot to reality isn't a very good comparison to draw

Ratios and Tendency posted:The concentration of wealth and power inevitably serves to undermine democracy. Some people have more money than others. Money is power in a society based around capital. Capitalism advocates for the unequal sharing of boons. Ergo, the advocating for capitalism is advocating for a ruling class. The excessively rich are a crime against humanity.

And this is what happens when you allow civilians to buy AA-12 and armor piercing rounds. Soon they'll demand RPGs sold in Walmart and not even police tanks will be able to hold up here.

I can't remember if I saw this here or in my news feed. http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/first-read/trump-s-support-drops-military-communities-n768036 I can't be bothered to look it up, but even his previous number of 51% seemed low for a Republican President who was vowing to simultaneously not send troops off to war and increase military spending. Then again, I'm amazed they like him at all after his Purple Heart stunt. If Trump loses the military then he's lost America.
