Alright.

Why are the kids in clothes at a nude beach if you're nudists?

If you're not nudists why are you at a nudist beach?

If you're at a nude beach to perv on naked people don't bring your kids.

Cos they have young delicate skin which the sun will fry

It's clothing optional, what we wear or don't wear doesn't matter, but yes clothes are overrated and swimming naked is great

Agreed, but we're not, it's a great beach and happens to be the closest

Hobo Erotica, his wife, and his son all go to a nude beach. Naturally, the young son has lots of questions. He runs to his father, "Hobo! Hobo! All of the women have these things hanging from their chests!"

Hobo Erotica tells him, "Son, those are breasts. The women with large ones are dumb and the small ones are smart."

Soon after the son comes running again, "Mom! Mom! All of the guys have these things dangling between their legs!"

The mom replies, "Those are called penis'. The men with the big ones are dumb and the men with small ones are smart."

A little bit later the son runs up to his mom and asks her, "Mom! Mom! Is being dumb contagious? Dad is talking to a really dumb lady and he keeps getting dumber and dumber."

There should be an exception for all LNP members, and they should be actively encouraged to go out in boats without them, preferably while also drunk. Tax incentives for this behaviour would also be OK.

Swatting: Kansas man shot dead by police after prank caller calls 911, Call of Duty link investigated

quote:

The FBI is investigating whether an argument over a video game prompted a hoax call that led to a Kansas man
being shot dead on his doorstep by a police officer.

Wichita Deputy Police Chief Troy Livingston said a "prankster" called 911 and made up a story about a shooting and
kidnapping.

He did not mention reports that an argument over online gaming was at the heart of the prank, although he said
investigators had made good progress tracking online leads.


Police have not disclosed the name of the man who was killed on Thursday evening, but relatives identified him as
Andrew Finch, 28.

Chief Livingston, speaking at a news conference, said the hoax call was a case of "swatting", in which a person makes
up a false report to get a SWAT team to raid an address.

"Due to the actions of a prankster we have an innocent victim," Chief Livingston said.

He said no-one had been arrested in connection with the hoax.

'My son was murdered over a false report'

An audio recording of the call to 911 was made public by police.

In it, a man can be heard telling the emergency operator that he has just shot his father in the head.

He said he was holding his mother and younger brother at gunpoint.

The caller, speaking with relative calm, said he poured petrol inside the home "and I might just set it on fire".


When asked for his location, he gave Mr Finch's address.

Several officers arrived and surrounded the home, braced for a hostage situation. When Mr Finch went to the door police
told him to put his hands up and move slowly.

But Chief Livingston said the man moved a hand toward the area of his waistband — a common place where guns are
concealed.

An officer, fearing the man was reaching for a gun, fired a single shot. Mr Finch died a few minutes later at a hospital.
Chief Livingston said Mr Finch was unarmed.


The officer, a seven-year veteran of the department, is on paid leave pending the investigation.

The Finch family on Friday allowed reporters inside their home. Lisa Finch told them her son was not a gamer.

Ms Finch said the family was forced outside barefoot in freezing cold and handcuffed after the shooting. She said her
granddaughter was forced to step over her dying uncle and that no guns were found in the home.


Dexerto, an online news service focused on gaming, reported that the series of events began with an online argument
over a $1 or $2 wager in a Call of Duty game on UMG Gaming, which operates online tournaments including one
involving Call of Duty.

"We woke this morning to horrible news about an innocent man losing his life," Shannon Gerritzen, a UMG
spokeswoman, said in an email.

"Our hearts go out to his loved ones. We are doing everything we can to assist the authorities in this matter."
She declined to disclose other details.

In addition to the 911 call, police also released a brief video of body camera footage from another officer at the scene.

It was difficult to see clearly what happened, but it shows that police were parked across the road from Mr Finch's house
when the shot was fired.

The FBI estimates that roughly 400 cases of swatting occur annually, with some using caller ID spoofing to disguise their
number.


An FBI supervisor in Kansas City, Missouri, which covers all of Kansas, said the agency joined in the investigation at the
request of local police.

In other cases of apparent swatting, three families in Florida in January had to evacuate their homes after a detective
received an anonymous email claiming bombs had been placed at the address.

A 20-year-old Maryland man was shot in the face with rubber bullets by police in 2015 after a fake hostage situation was
reported at his home.

Katherine Clark, a Massachusetts Democrat, introduced an anti-swatting bill in 2015 — then was herself the victim of
swatting. Armed officers in 2016 responded to an anonymous call claiming an active shooter was at Ms Clark's home.

What the gently caress.

Sometimes I think the black people getting shot by police angle is played up to protect the police from white people. :tinfoil:

(not that it isn't a problem, but that the narrative went "black people gettin shot" instead of "people in general gettin shot, black people even more")

Sometimes. I wonder. If the news focuses. On specifically the black victims of police. So that racist-rear end white people. Will side with police against black people. Against their own interests. Because it is really an issue that also fucks white people. Just like welfare was painted as a thing black people abuse. And hard drugs are a problem in the black community. Even though white communities also use welfare and have drug problems. Or how aboriginal communities were said to have problems with child abuse. Even though. The problems were not any higher than for white communities.


There's a pattern of making societal problems seem like they are only concerns for minority communities, thus causing the majority to either ignore them or treat them harshly. I sometimes wonder if police violence coverage is part of that trend.

No. Not remotely. If it's on TV or on bird cage liner then it barely qualifies as journalism anyway.

It's an interesting question you asked because it suggests you've been taking the news pretty seriously and/or at face value. Should probably stop doing that.

Look up everything Rupert Murdoch related for the past 20 years and come back if you... no actually if that doesn't work nothing will.
