On second thoughts, why don't they invade Detroit?

We already have Dearborn, and yes people have already said we should kill all the Muslims there as a precautionary measure.

I've been pretty lucky to have no horrible stuff about the french attacks or muslims on my feed, but has anyone else had a poo poo ton of people saying "Nobody's talking about Lebanon/all these other places that were attacked!"
Is there going to be this flood of "Why do you only care about that thing? What about all these other things?" every time a tragedy happens?

Just let people be sad, guys. Don't try and make a point out of it.
This has basically been my whole feed. I made a huge ranting status about it that appears to have gone over well so maybe that will die down. I'll definitely take it over "kill all the Muslims!" though.

Anybody else frequently get people posting years-old articles about famous people dying? Today it's Dave Brubeck (died in 2012). I used to get Chinua Achebe a lot. If y'all were so sad about it, maybe you would've noticed when it happened?

There's an "idea" going through conservative thought now, where Donald "Why doesn't he show his birth certificate" Trump isn't actually problem for the GOP, but is instead a problem for skeletons and therefor the left.



I mean that's expressed in an insane way but his popularity being a reaction to "PC culture" is a pretty common explanation.

Complaints over a Black storm trooper seem odd because weren't the first ones cloned from an Arabic or Persian guy? Luke and Han are the only White people we've ever seen wear the helmet. If you watched only episodes 4-7, you might think all storm troopers were Black.

The clone troopers were from a Maori guy.

The Detroit Lions made the mistake of wishing people Happy Holidays and the anti-PC brigade is in full force.



And a lot of angry "You guys can't even get this right!" comments. Unfortunately it appears that they've deleted the dude with the Minion profile pic who was responding to everyone saying that they're PC and are what is wrong with this country, but was censoring words like "mor*n" and "los*r"

That's one thing that honestly baffles me about politics in general. One single, tiny failure can completely torpedo something if it gets amplified enough. It's on the level of a butterfly flapping its wings and causing a hurricane. You might think "what does a dropped football have to do with anything?" but then next thing you know it changes the face of a major election.

We may have been an ill advised scream away from President Howard Dean.

A few pages back but -
In October 2006, New York City had another into a building and nothing happened besides both people aboard the aircraft were killed and 20 something people were injured. A guy at work who believes all the conspiracy theories Alex Jones tells thought this was absolute proof 911 was an inside job done by the illuminati since it didn't collapse.


Also since it was the New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle who was flying the plane it was the illuminati who killed him for some reason.

Also it was the illuminati that made it so their wasn't 24/7 news coverage for weeks like 911 because they don't want people to ask questions.

Wait, so all those gun nuts in America hoard weapons... Just to hoard them? They don't even go to the shooting range?

My father owns a couple of rifles because he likes hunting. He keeps them in a locker in the lower part of the house, closed with a key nearby so that it takes a while to open it. When I was little and asked him why go through all this trouble, he told me that guns are dangerous and to keep them on hand sqngerously so.

People definitely go to ranges with them. Gotta get practice in if you're gonna defend your home
