There is so much petty crime in London that the police don't bother recording reports of robberies, muggings, or 'simple' assault - if it takes more than a few minutes to solve, they won't bother. Similar policies are in place elsewhere in the UK, too; if there is no death or maiming, then the police don't care. In 2013, before these new polices took place, they already dropped 50% of all property crimes - now they won't even pretend to solve them.

Career criminals with 70+ convictions walk out of court on your "suspended sentences", sometimes serving three or four at a time.

Meanwhile, in Rotherham, Rochdale, and Telford, the UK "justice system" spends thirty years covering up hundreds of thousands of gang rapes of thousands of young girls (as young as 12!) because the police and judges don't want to look racist.

let's say you win a battle by wounding everyone. Guess what, you now have thousands of prisoners that you need to care for

Kill an enemy soldier, you piss off his mates and they come for you.
Wound an enemy soldier, two of his mates carry him off to get treatment. You've just reduced the enemy fighting force by far more than just killing someone. They're also now looking at their mate that's lost a leg, or an arm, or his testicles, and is screaming in agony, and they're thinking, "Shit, hope I get hit clean in the head and go quickly"

Not to mention that winning a battle tends to leave you with a lot of prisoners anyway, and if many of them are wounded it doesn't make that much difference.

Wounded enemy are still capable of being plenty lethal

At an individual level, absolutely. At the level of a battle? Nah. At the level of a campaign? Fuck no. Wound half the opposition and they'll have full trains heading back home for treatment and recuperation; really fucking dangerous to you, that.

5.56 was designed to put a number of high-velocity, low-recoils shots on target with decent accuracy and is plenty capable of killing you

There was no similar outrage when Facebook was found to be censoring people who oppose ISIS. How's that for aid to a campaign.

In 2009, Russian social-media mogul Yuri Milner invested $200 million into Facebook at a valuation of $10 billion dollars without voting rights or a seat on the board. To understand this investment, at the time the world was going through a global recession and Facebook's general valuation had dropped from the $15 billion from the year prior to $4-$6 billion in 2009.

https://www.cnet.com/news/facebooks-valuation-the-cheat-sheet/

One company did offer a valuation of $8 billion, but with a seat on the board, which Zuckerberg was strongly against. In other words, Yuri Milner invested in Facebook when they were strapped for cash and at an inflated price without voting rights or a seat on the board. That's an amazing deal for Zuckerberg!

Here's Yuri Milner and Mark Zuckerberg hanging out for an interview: https://techcrunch.com/2009/05/26/mark-zuckerberg-and-yuri-milner-talk-about-facebooks-new-investment-video/

The deal was coordinated by Alisher B. Usmanov, a Russian oligarch that earned his fortune managing steel mill subsidiaries for Gazprom.

Usmanov spent six years in prison for fraud and embezzlement in the 80's.

In 2008, Usmanov fired a publisher and editor at one of Russia's most respected news paper after it published detailed accounts of Russian election fraud.

It is said, "His ties to the Kremlin and Facebook have stirred concerns that he might influence the companyâ(TM)s policies in subtle ways to appease governments in markets where Facebook is also an important tool of political dissent, such as Russia." This was in 2009.

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/16/technology/a-russian-facebook-bet-pays-off-big.html

Usmanov is close friends with Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alisher_Usmanov

Ivanka Trump and Wendi Deng are good friends with Abramovich's then wife, Dasha Zhoukova. Here they are watching a tennis match.

The leak of the Paradise Papers revealed the money Yuri Milner used to invest into Facebook came from Gazprom, a US sanctioned Russian oil and gas company, at one point owning 9% of the company.

http://www.wired.co.uk/article/what-is-the-paradise-papers-leak-facebook-yuri-milner-facebook-twitter-russia

Soon after, Zuckerberg and Milner became friends, meeting monthly:

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/zuckerberg-got-early-business-advice-194957335.html

And even spoke together in November 2015 at the 2016 Breakthrough Prize Ceremony.

http://www.wired.co.uk/article/what-is-the-paradise-papers-leak-facebook-yuri-milner-facebook-twitter-russia

In May 2012, Milner attended Zuckerberg's wedding. In 2014, Milner moved to California home he paid 100% above value on.

The "women only" workspace (as though women got work done) and "club" (that way it's not sexist to exclude another demographic) has a bunch of rooms completely dedicated to what women spend all of their time on: phone calls and emotional drama.

I'm so surprised. I never would have guessed.

Now that would be some impressive logistics.

Well, you can, but then your truck and computers will all end up in the Atlantic ocean.

Unless you drive them onto a boat.

You'll need to find some space on some cargo ship, but then we aren't just talking about knowing someone to get your container on the ship without anyone knowing.

Anyone except for the Chinese government, which owns the ship (effectively or literally) and is in on the deal.

It also has to be unloaded somewhere without someone asking "Hey, where are we going to put this unmarked container that apparently doesn't belong to anyone"

It's being unloaded in China, just like all the really valuable cars that are stolen in other countries. They get fake bills of lading before they even go into a shipping container and are gone within the hour.

It's too bad you have literally no idea what you're on about. I'm not saying that these machines definitely went to China, but these machines definitely could have gone to China, via the mechanisms already in place for moving stolen goods to China.

This is all a red herring to avoid substantiating your claims of "Backpage running an underage prostitution ring" but I'm going to thoroughly stomp it down anyway.

You cited the definition of ephebophilia so you know that referring to teens below the statutory age of unlimited sexual consent in some jurisdictions as "children" to imply that any desire to have sex with them is "sex with children" is dishonest. You have no other way to win this argument than to fire off ad hominem attacks and appeals to your own personal morality. You know that the paraphilia discussion is a giant red herring because the post you responded to was calling you out for trying to insert "underage" into the discussion without substantiation. You still haven't substantiated any of those claims.

You still have not supported your assertion that "[Backpage was] running a[n] underage prostitution ring" nor your curiously revised version "[Backpage] made aggressive moves to break into the underage prostitute ad market" (emphasis mine) so you're pushing really hard to play the "b-b-b-but if I call you a pedo apologist and swing my moral nuts in the air I can automatically win!" card instead. We're not talking about the difference between paraphilias (red herring) and we're not talking about the political support for bill in question (appeal to popularity and appeal to authority); we're talking about your assertions regarding Backpage and underage prostitution and how you have posted a lot of junk that has nothing to do with supporting those statements.

Plus, you keep trying to push for older teens to be regarded as equivalent to five-year-olds. These model twins are 16 years old, one year beyond the age of consent in Denmark where they are from and above the age of consent in the U.K. as well as several U.S. states. You are asserting that they are "children." Psychology and the law both say otherwise. It doesn't matter how many times you say the phrase "pedo apologist," it won't make you any less incorrect. Don't like it? Petition to have the laws changed to raise the legal age of sexual consent in those jurisdictions.

Don't like the models as an example? Fine. Here's Angelina Jolie at age 16, modeling underwear, published on a major U.K. website. The age of unlimited sexual consent in many parts of the world floats around 16 while the United States (where Backpage is operated) has a lot of states with a minimum age of 18, meaning they're illegal in those states but 100% legal in other states and several European countries. These older teenagers are within the age of consent in huge chunks of the modern Western world, are capable of bearing children, have developed secondary sex characteristics, have strong sexual drives, are already expected to take "correct" actions that will put them on career paths and shape their entire futures, yet you're attempting to liken them to five-year-olds.

I wonder how hard your panties will twist over [super NSFW] tiny and petite (but adult and legal) porn stars that are petite enough to have the Feds go after viewers for "child pornography" even though the photos are watermarked with an 18 USC 2257 compliant company's name and the photographed model is in their early 20s.

Support your original assertions with some facts or toss off. You've been given several opportunities and chosen not to substantiate your arguments thus far. I'm not letting you worm your way out of substantiating your original claims no matter what you try to use as

You are complaining about spreading misinformation yet spread misinformation. Democrats commissioned the dossier. Stop spreading misinformation.

Actually, AC isn't completely wrong. Bush allegedly initially hired Steele to make the hit piece, but it was completed after he got $$$ from the Dems, and then was leaked by them via useful idiot John McCain.

If any of them are still alive. They worked at Bletchley Park during WWII, programming Colossus to decode Nazi Enigma messages. I'm assuming we're talking about programming electronic computers, since anyone who used a slide rule in their youth would've programmed a mechanical computer.

If those other countries are concerned they can pick up the tab to keep it running.

There are plenty of people in the US who want to keep it running. They just don't happen to occupy the white house or congress at the moment.

Privatization is better than de-orbit.

You are assuming privatization is possible. I'm having trouble imagining any viable privatization scenario. Explain to me where the profit comes from for a private enterprise taking over management of the ISS. Who would be interested and why? It costs about $3 billion/year to keep it flying so which private enterprise is going to foot that bill?

Someone has to pay the bills. Why should it always be the US?

A) We have the most money by a wide margin so that's why we get to pay for the expensive fancy stuff. There aren't a lot of countries that can afford something like the ISS and that is to our advantage. B) Investments in scientific research have big long term payoffs. If we have gotten everything we can out of the ISS then fine but if it still has value then it is foolish to pull the figurative plug on it early. There is also the opportunity cost to consider. That said though I have trouble with the argument that we should pull the plug on the ISS when we spend $600+ billion per year on a needlessly large military. Heck we spend hundreds of millions each year on tanks that we don't need and that the military doesn't want.

So, what will the esteemed Oxford people say about this piece of news?

EXCLUSIVE: Adam Schiff sent his staff to try and collect 'classified materials for the FBI' after Russian pranksters told him Putin has NAKED blackmail pictures of Trump.

The ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee was the victim of a prank phone call by Russian comedians who offered to give him 'compromising' dirt on Donald Trump – including nude photos of the president and a Russian reality show star.

DailyMail.com can disclose that after the prank, his staff engaged in correspondence with what they thought was a Ukrainian politician to try to obtain the 'classified' material promised on the call.

On an audio recording of the prank call posted online, Adam Schiff can be heard discussing the committee's Russia investigation and increasingly bizarre allegations about Trump with a man who claimed to be Andriy Parubiy, the chairman of the Ukrainian Parliament.

The call, made a year ago, was actually from two Russian comedians nicknamed 'Vovan' and 'Lexus' who have become notorious for their phony calls to high-ranking American officials and celebrities, including UN Ambassador Nikki Haley and Elton John.

Schiff told Vovan and Lexus, two radio pranksters who have also hit Nikki Haley, that he would pass their claims to the FBI in a call made last year.

The duo posed as a fake Ukrainian politician to say Trump had sex with Russian glamour model Olga Buzova after a Miss Universe pageant in 2013.

In the call they said Putin had been passed naked pictures of Trump and now-president had used secret codes for talks with Russians.

Duo gave emails to DailyMail.com which showed Schiff's staff trying to arrange to collect 'classified' documents from Ukraine's embassy in D.C.

Schiff's office said the congressman suspected the call was 'bogus' from the beginning and reported it to authorities afterward.
But in a recording of the eight minute conversation, Schiff appeared to take the call seriously – or at least played along convincingly - and emails from the Democrat's staff to the fake politician afterwards said he had found it 'productive'.

No, it's because the US actually punishes its criminals.

The UK? How about this story of a guy with 77 convictions, that was serving two simultaneous 'suspended' sentences, caught while committing another - and when convicted AGAIN, let go without any punishment because he hurt himself during his crime?

Or maybe the fact that police in the UK just don't record, investigate, or prosecute 'low-level' crime?

When your police are lazy and corrupt, and lie about crime statistics, it sure does make your country look better! (That was sarcasm, btw)

Just this morning I read a new story about a couple of actual researchers who discovered a massive flaw in nearly every climate model we've ever used which could change by half the amount of energy reaching the surface.

And like everything, this will be checked and verified or falsified, the models will be updated and new predictions will be made. This has been going on for 30+ years. The funny thing is that over all that time, the basic conclusions have not changed. In that climate change is real, it is in a considerable part caused by us, and it is getting worse.

Are you really so blind? Ice is melting. Sea levels are rising. Even the US military is already spending real money on real impacts of climate change and to prepare for more of them. They are not exactly known for being unpractical pie-in-the-sky people.

But you have to amp up the "we are all going to die" rhetoric don't you?

Nobody listened to "excuse me, I think there might be a small problem that we can get under control if we do a few small corrective actions in the near future".

We are not going to die, of course. Well, we are, but most likely of natural causes. Climate is a slow thing. It will be our grandchildren who suffer the consequences.

The *real* problem here is that we are not in a place where alternate sources of energy to replace fossil fuels with the same or better cost don't exist. The choice then becomes one of reducing our standard of living to reduce our dependence on oil, a process that punishes the poor more because they cannot afford the increased costs. What's the right thing to do? I'm not so sure that dumping oil is the correct path, nor the damage this will do to the ecconomy is worth it.

Agree with you on that again. Alternative energy sources need more research and development, and it will take some time until we have a real alternative to fossil fuels. But that exactly is the reason why we need to start doing that now, not later. Because later might be too late.

And yes, we might have to make a few hard choices about standards of living, or at least ways of living. Why, for example, do millions of people drive for kilometers every day in order to sit at a computer? Telecommuting is one step that can reduce petrol consumption, and might actually raise instead of lower the standard of living. Car sharing and car pooling can also cut into this commuter effect with only a small effect on standard of living.

But private car traffic is also a big strawman. The container ships that bring all our gadgets from China are incredible polluters. Here is one of many articles on the subject. Moving our economy away from extreme globalisation back into local manufacturing would do wonders not just for the job market, but also for the environment. And yes, prices might rise, but people who have jobs again could afford them again. And this is actually easy to do: Pollution is externalised costs. If we can agree to put import taxes on goods based on the pollution their transport created, e.g. make pollution no longer an externalized cost factor, local manufacturing will be economically interesting again. Not for everything, China will probably remain a big factory, but shipping $1 plastic toys around the world will most likely stop being profitable.

That's just some thoughts. Yes, we might have to change how we live. Some of that will take away a few comforts. Some of

Per capita consumption of margarine dropping correlates to a lower divorce rate in Maine. Oh, while we're at it, we need to lower the cost of potato chips to reduce deaths by falling out of wheelchairs. We can observe trends and make incorrect assumptions based on them all day long.

Just because the IPCC makes predictions that come true doesn't mean that their theory behind those predictions is correct. Note that I'm not saying they're WRONG either, just that I don't believe they are capable of being accurate because all data available is very limited compared to the amount of time that major climate shifts take to complete. It'd be like taking a photo of a stretch of thousand-mile road and making big assumptions about the entire road based on that photo.

Oh so naive, who do you think gets the bulk of social welfare benefits today? Unmarried women with children. And how do they get all these children? It sure isn't from immaculate conception, it is life choices.

Just look at this article about a woman with 8 kids. Or this report about 190 families with 10 or more kids living off welfare.

There was a similar case years back in Washington, DC where a single mother with nearly as many kids was told her benefits would be capped after she got pregnant again. She sued and the courts ruled she was entitled to per child benefits regardless of how many kids in her litter.

The difference here is that if they can engineer all sperm to be XX chromosomes they can truly replace men, but then there actually won't be anyone working to tax to pay for all these welfare queens.

In the UK each time there's a terrorist attack the hate speech laws get tightened up to catch 'extremists'. And each time it seems like a lot more people complaining about terrorism get caught than actual terrorists. Or even Islamists. Anjem Choudary was regularly invited on TV to spread his loathsome views and was allowed to recruit people for al Qaeda, ISIS etc up until 2016, even though hate speech laws were supposed to stop him

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Meanwhile this hapless bastard got sent to prison, and mysteriously died there for putting a ham sandwich on a mosque. What did he die of? No one seems to care - even though there's supposed to be an inquiry no results of it were ever released.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/new...

So Crehan got very effectively screwed for committing 'a racially-motivated attack'. Anjem Choudhary blatantly recruited for ISIS from 2002 to 2016, was invited on the BBC to do it and is very unlikely to die mysteriously in prison. British prisons have a load of Islamists, so he'll be a hero in there.

tl;dr - hate speech laws get people who complain about Islamism, not actual Islamists.

The Birth Certificate was verified by the Republican Governor of Hawaii personally, something no Governor had ever done before. The inconsistencies didn't exist. And more than one site proving them was proven to have introduced them themselves, just to point them out.

There is lots of evidence he was born in HI, and no evidence he wasn't. Even if he wasn't born in HI, the law today would have granted him citizenship at birth (And yes, you can retroactively apply that to a birth before a law change). So, he was born in HI. All the evidence says he was. No evidence exists that he wasn't. And even if he wasn't, he'd still have been eligible to be president.

(the justification was 'for emergencies', but I say this is ridiculous where is the first people will go in an emergency if they need important information: hint: google, although radio in some areas might still be the go to place.)

So did Republicans lie? No, but it certainly might be a mischaracterization of the how, if not the motives. The Right has long seen attempts to silence them by people on the left. That's not tin foil hattery, (btw, liberals were worried about trump doing the same thing recently also.)

Been there, done that.. try this one from 2012 for example:
