It's far out, but if you use the bar to the lower right of the map to wind time forward, New York City gets a direct hit by Irma on the 10th, and the pressure indicates a storng cat 3 or boderline cat 4.

Right now Irma could be anything from apocalypse from Mexico to Boston, to something that will track around Bermuda and then dissipate in the North Atlantic.

If it crosses the Lesser Antilles, it will be terrible for someone.

The system developing behind Irma also has a lot of danger potential. It is south of Irma, and it is south of Harvey's trajectory. Anything south of Harvey will enter the Carribean/Gulf of Mexico, and once it does, it will have to hit land somewhere.

Lol just because you made a lovely dumb post and got called out for it ("hurr durr maybe race isn't such a big deal, has anyone thought of that?") you couldn't take it and had to keep replying and keep demanding everyone agree your post was a good post.

Do you really not get the context of you responding with that video to the post you responded to? You basically came across as saying "But MLK had a dream, therefore racism is over!"

That's why everyone jumped down your throat, and now you've quintupled down on it and are melting down.

Except I never loving said that. That's what I've been trying to tell you for like 3 pages dude. Fucks sake I've clarified at least 3 times now that the sentiment being conveyed is the color of people's skin shouldn't matter in how you judge them like MLK said. Seriously why is it so loving hard to accept that that's obviously what I meant so we can move the gently caress on from this stupidity instead of continuing to double down and call me some kind of liar and mis-characterize other peoples posts again in the future?

Hi!
The entire Kelly/Trump dynamic seems like a setup for a hosed up sitcom.

"He's a by the rules general that has served his country diligently and undaunted, but he has met his greatest challenge yet with a garbage pail kid piss baby in the White House."

It's not funny without the laugh track though.

Why is it important to me that people actually understand where I stand on something instead of allowing a misrepresentation to fester for another day where people can try to attack me on it again when they feel like getting down and personal and attacking other users? Why wouldn't it be? Maybe other posters don't care if others completely misrepresent theirs and other words constantly but I do. They even tried to do it again with the "you people" thing which was obviously meant to refer to posters that attacking other posters by trying to re-characterize it as some sort of race baiting thing. Not cool goons.

Anyway back to actual happening poo poo, I think anybody could have predicted that anybody that Trump feels is trying to put constraints on his ability to appear as the big boss man that makes all the decisions and has all the facts very much bigly isn't going to stay in his good graces for very long. The position of White House Chief of Staff is simply untenable under this administration and president.

People who are formally arrested must be mirandized immediately and if they aren't anything they say can be suppressed. The trick is that federal agents are great at getting people to talk "voluntarily" at a time where they are in contact with agents but aren't formally under arrest.

That is straight incorrect.

Miranda Rights only apply when under direct questioning. Period. If I shove a warrant in your face, cuff you, put you in the car to take you down for processing, and you start blabbing on the ride down without me asking you anything; all of that is admissible regardless of whether I mirandized you.

But Mr. Trump does not have a web browser on his phone, and does not use a laptop, so he was dependent on aides like Stephen K. Bannon, his former chief strategist, to hand-deliver printouts of articles from conservative media outlets.

How many Breitbart articles were written specifically to be given to the President?
