It's baffling how many people have decided that traffic laws just don't really matter. You'd think all the people who believe harsher punishments prevents crime would be super pumped up about traffic regulation given that lovely drivers are a fairly probable cause for death.

Really lays out how much "law & order" is just code for locking up poor blacks, doesn't it? The laws they break are important, the laws I do are stupid and should be ignored.

Somehow, this person has managed to be worse than the anti-semitic "THE ZIONISTS ARE IN CONTROL OF EVERYTHING!" people and the "Black people are literally savages" people put together. I never thought that I'd ever see anyone try and argue that rape is good because it shows how devoted your rapist is towards you! I think this is the first thing that I've seen in either this thread or the PYF Idiots on Facebook thread that's made me actually properly angry at the wanker who wrote it; and that's saying something when you look at the other stuff in these threads!

The way its presented is also awful; because someone (probably the OP, I refuse to think that anyone agrees with her) thought that the message was so good that they'd put that artsy filter over it so that they could share it on all the social networks they choose!

Sooooooo, to try to lighten things up a bit;



This showed up on my wall. I live in Mississippi, this is posted by a co-worker's fiance who lives here and has lived here his entire life.

I have done student teaching in high schools and science demonstrations at about a half dozen total. Every single one features reciting the pledge of allegiance after the morning bell, and has "IN GOD WE TRUST" flag plaques all over the loving place.

Then again, I have heard people talk who seriously think it's illegal to recite the pledge in school and they're being rebels by doing it anyway. This state is terrible.

Not even to the state, to the flag of the state. I never understood why you pledge to the flag and the country and not just the country itself.

Real answer here; it was designed by a socialist Baptist minister and co-opted by a guy who wanted to sell more flags. By focusing on the flag it in theory would allow individuals to conceptualize the concept of American government into a visible object hence the quote being "I pledge allegiance to the flag and the republic for which it stands[...]"

Additionally it was written in a post-Civil War era when Americans had just finally started to say "The United States of America is a nation" instead of "The United States of America are a nation." It very much is a product of the mindset of visual iconography to represent a contiguous government which endures despite massive changes.

I always find this fascinating because they espouse hating collective action but capitalism inherently produces collective action in the form of companies. Historically, business have been involved in all three of those things and they don't typically care about voting outside of ownership stakeholders.

I think that's the important bit. Stakeholders voting to decide the course of a company is A-OK, because they're the ones who take the most risk and contribute the most to the company. Moochers voting to decide the course of a nation is bad because they don't contribute. The only moral democracy or collective action is my democracy or collective action.

Why do these chauvinists always seem to think that chivalry is feminist? Yeah, it was pretty progressive in the 11th century, but poo poo changed over the past thousand years, you know? I think I speak for most feminists when I say we'd take equal rights over flowers and candy any day. Besides, I thought the stereotype was "evil harpy yelled at me for holding the door for her, can't she appreciate a loving favor?!"

The way it's phrased, I'm pretty sure that's not supposed to be referencing something she said, it's just a gag off of the "[pepper spray]'s a food product, essentially" quote. Like the O'Reilly memes jumping off of the "tides go in, tides go out; can't explain that" quote.

I thought protecting ownership and contracts was the only thing they wanted government to do (since guess who uses that part).

Any movie with a female character that isn't a one dimensional character existing solely for a romantic subplot is feminist propaganda.
