Good luck with that strategy. All it takes is one salient example of someone being a lovely tipper and they've canceled out every tip you've ever made.

Edit:
If you want equality. Take it.

I made the hat by transforming my zen

I decided to go to  the Mosque for a first time to see what it was all about.  

I sat down and the  Iman came up to me, laid his hands on my hand and said “By the will of  Allah the All Mighty and the Prophet Mohamed you will walk  today." 

I told him I was not  paralyzed. 

He came back and  laid his hands on me and repeated the same thing. Again I told him  there is nothing wrong with me.


After the  prayers I stepped outside and lo and behold my loving car had been  stolen.

Believe it or not, I am not the author of this post.

It's not a terrible post though, aside from the ridiculous bit about "earning equality" as though not everybody inherently deserves it.

Of all the anti-semitism I've encountered though, tipping has never really entered the equation. Maybe because this area doesn't have enough Jews for anybody's confirmation biases to be verified.

You tell yourself you're a real leftist just criticizing the goofy leftists, yet in every post you're either complaining about the dumb lazy blacks and their made-up racism or agreeing with openly racist dipshits who can't even acknowledge that black men are targeted by cops for harassment.

What's up with that? Are you just not good at this trolling thing? Or are you just so dumb you think as long as you disagree with the most racist part of a "shutup and accept your lot, blacks" rant it makes you not racist by comparison?

I feel for cops who put their life on the line and it ends up in tragedy. I guess the answer is to shoot first, and be cleared/not charged later.


It's true, these were tragic. I actually did read about a couple of those at the time, because I'm a news fiend. The police dog story made me so sad I skipped dinner.
But the fact remains that zero of these officers were killed by unarmed civilians. Nor any of them by people with their backs turned.

quote:

Parent chat: my mom once told me she's rather I come out as gay than to date a black girl. :( I did however go to prom with a super cool black gal and she had no problem with it. Unlike the rest of my family she isn't outwardly racist, and has never said anything racist(beyond this). This was in the mid 90s FWIW. Not that it excuses it.
Oh, man, if my parents told me that, I'd have come home with a black "boyfriend" just to really rattle their jimmies.

That is almost exactly one of those panels from that Bors 9/11 cartoon, which I can't find right now.

Edit: It may have been the "Modern World", but it's the one with the guy in the burning tower asking if anyone can see him, and it's a bunch of people saying "I can see you, and I'll use your death to..."

Edit: VVV Thanks, that was proving annoying to find.

I found a new breed of sovereign citizen being started.

quote:

Federal Healthcare Regulations supersede state law and establish that you have the right to communicate in any way you choose with your healthcare provider. By definition in the Final Rule and Omnibus Rule anyone that provides, bills, or pays for health care services is a health care provider. This includes you.

Health services are defined in federal regulations as anything that supports the health of an individual.

You are a healthcare provider.

You are also a Health Plan.

A Health Plan is defined in federal regulations as any person that pays for health services. This includes massage, food, bathing, organizing community health events, and all the communications involved with any of those things.

The Chicago Stingray operation the other day?

That was a violation of federally protected Privacy Rights. Those people were communicating with their health support team to coordinate a peaceful protest. It does not matter that the protesters do not think of themselves as Healthcare Providers. There are minimum penalties written into the law that are effective regardless of whether or not the police were aware of violating federal regulations.

TLDR: When you record an event involving state police, you are communicating with your health support team via recording (recording is the form of communication) to support the health of yourself and the people harassed by the cops. Federal Regulations prohibit the police from retaliating.

The FCC needs to know about federally protected Privacy and Medical Rights and how they effect Net Neutrality.

Please take a moment to sign the White House Petition.
