Pigsfeet on Rye posted:They're apparently a variant of guidos, so their humanity is in doubt. In the original story the Oompa-loompas were just a unusually small pygmy tribe from "deepest darkest" Africa. The orange skin and green hair was added in the movie to make it a bit less racist.

As today is Gay Pride day in Iceland here is headline from 1952: Icelandic Sodomoite In the Act With Negro Police caught the men in a suburban Nissen hut and apprehended them Lately there has been a persistent and incredible rumour going around town regarding sodomy and many men have claimed they were accosted by sodomites. Seduced a black man One night not long ago the Reykjavík police caught one of these men in the act in a Nissen Hut here in town. The man in question had brought a Negro, a sailor from one of the ships in the harbor, home stripped him naked and gotten him to serve his misguided needs. Police detectives declined to comment on the case yesterday. What is happening in Reykjavik? This event and other similar ones suggest that very sinister things are afoot among us. Therefore this paper believes it would not be right to remain silent about this disgusting case. There are many signs that the time has come to do something drastic about moral decay and it is important for the public to be aware of this.

Randaconda posted:I thought this was just random inane poo poo until the article got to the part where the ambassador has a Japanese mother, then I was like "Oh, right, garden variety racism." Korea being a former Japanese colony makes anti-Japanese sentiment sort of understandable. Like Irish people not caring for the English, Filipinos disliking Spaniards and/or Americans, or Algerians distrusting the French. I imagine if the American ambassador to the Democratic Republic of the Congo was half Belgian and had a beard like King Leopold some people would be irked. Is it xenophobic? Yes, but it's based on historical grievances rather than race.

Cats eating your corpse is a lot better for the environment than being embalmed and thrown into a hole in the ground in an obscenely expensive box. If anything all bodies should be eaten by animals. Would save everyone a lot of trouble

That reminds me of how the Puckle Gun, a early 18th century proto-machine gun that never saw any action but could theoretically fire as many as 9 rounds per minute, was designed to be able to fire square bullets as well as conventional round bullets. The normal bullets being meant for good Christian enemies and the square ones for Turks reportedly to "convince the Turks of the benefits of Christian civilization".

Key is to randomly google macabre poo poo everyday for years that way they can't claim you searched "How to dissolve a body in acid" to destroy evidence when the record shows you googled "how many pigs to eat dead guy" three years before the alleged crime, "strangulation tutorial AND garrote" a month before, and "good poisons for murder" a month into the investigation and so on and so forth.

Can't remember which but there was one ancient Mesopotamian civilization that had really strict laws against loving certain animals and no punishment for others and their legal code specifically catalogued which species where the "death penalty" animals if hosed and which were legally fuckable with no restrictions.

In Iceland you not only need to keep your guns in a locked locker but you need to store the ammo separately in another separate locked storage. I've also heard that you can't keep the key to your gunlocker and need to have someone else hold it when you aren't hunting or shooting for sport but skimming the weapons laws I can't find a mention of that. Also you can't actually own or operate a gun without a license which requires having a clean criminal record, reading a book on gun safety and going through a seminar on responsible gun handling with a test at the end, and training on how to use a gun
