Mr. Devereaux, it's "betta" fish  Also having worked animal control, they do throw them in the trash afterwards. Live or dead doesn't matter. Also who eats stringy roosters? I can see the new southern delicacy now, Losing Gamecoq au Vin.

I don't get how goddamn gunrights are peoples' #1 political issue, and they are completely ignorant of economic, education and other huge issues that affect their day to day lives more than the fantasy that some dude is going to kick down their suburban door in the middle of the night to murder their families for no reason.

SumYungGui posted:I'm continually amazed by how no amount of cynicism can prepare me for reality. Hearing other Republican sound bites earlier today was absolute proof to me. Allowing people to talk about their pay (only not really because they'd be fired anyway but let's forget reality and run with this) would have placed an 'undue burden' on businesses and 'inhibit their freedoms'. People talking is an undue burden? How does someone even manage that with a straight face? The freedom for businesses to do what, rear end in a top hat? Say it. Just say it you god drat empty suits, the freedom to gently caress over the 99% for a buck then flee the country once everything is burnt to ashes.

BUSH 2112 posted:I think the GOP is, depressingly, going to do an okay job of keeping the crazies down. Let's say, worst case scenario for the GOP, no one enters the race who hasn't already telegraphed that they would. The field would probably be something like Walker, Ryan, Paul, Cruz, and Perry. I don't believe that Rubio or Santorum are going to run, but they also have no chance of winning the nom, so whatever. The people who have been living in the Fox News/Breitbart/Drudge bubble have breathed too much methane and no amount of establishment oxygen is going to get let in. And there's enough of them that if the establishment doesn't at least give their guys lip service then they'll stay home at best and sabotage the convention at worst. All the loonies will do their own debates, their own appearances and if the establishment tries to punish them for it then there'll be hell to pay. What I'm saying is that you should buy a crate of whiskey, stock in the Betty Ford clinic, and  because unless the tea party completely implodes and disappears in the next year and a half things are going to be way worse (or better depending on your point of view) than 2012.

The Warszawa posted:I can't speak to these cases specifically but just because they don't appeal on actual innocence doesn't mean they're accepting their guilt in fact, it's just that getting an appellate court to overturn a sentence on issues of fact is much more difficult than getting it on an issue of law, if you have both of them. I'm aware of the DuPont case and if we actually had a *justice* system and not just a penal system he'd be in the same place as Warner.

I also have a hard time believing that in today's job climate an employer would put up with an employee who ignored customers to gently caress around on their phone when there are a hundred behind them waiting for a job of any stripe at all. It's not like unemployment is at 3%. Also somebody should ask Mr. Enzi how much he got paid to work at those jobs and how much his college tuition and healthcare costs were.

I live in Utah. I could vote for a ham sandwich and it wouldn't matter unless said sandwich has an -R after its name, in which case it will be elected. Also here Democrats are third party, after "absolutely loving crazy tea party Republican" aka Mike Lee, and "really right wing but less goddamn crazy Republican" aka Jon Huntsman.
