And the problem with the left is that they can't compromise and won't evolve.

Obama is widely known for both compromising and evolving.

I was just listening to Bill Maher from last night, and all the liberals encouraging the audience to fight, disrupt, oppose, insult(*), and combat everything the right wants to do.

Good for him. Intransigence is exactly what is appropriate at this time, since it was EXACTLY what the GOP did in 2008.

Force them to struggle for everything, and let them go off on a rocker.

Nowhere did anyone say "we have to become better". Nothing about making better policies, making more intelligent arguments, doing things voters want, making the country better, or anything that could be considered noble.

That's because the left already has those better ideas and policies, with much better arguments, and does things that the voters really want, and makes the country better, but through hook and crook, the GOP has sneaked its way into power through illegitimate means, therefore, they must be opposed.

You see, that's because the left HAS acted nobly, instead of doing the right thing, which would be to execute the traitorous and criminal Republicans as they deserve. The Right-Wing is one step away from Civil War, and you can bet if Trump thinks he can, he'll reject his rejection in the next election.

He'll lose, but he's dumb enough to try.

The fundamental difference between the left and the right, through the campaign and after, is that the right has tried to make themselves the better option, while the left tried to make the *other side* the worse option.

No, it's the right that has done its own job of making itself the worst option. They've opposed compromise, they've demanded obedience, they've rejected tolerance. See their stance on same-sex marriage, healthcare reform, and more. See Judge Roy Moore. See Donald Trump. See HB 4. See Indiana. See Kansas.

Trump's speeches were warm and inclusive, saying essentially "we're in this together, we can win, we can do better". Clinton's speeches, delivered by others during campaign rallies, were essentially throwing insults at the other side.

Wait, a second, you're delusional enough to believe the belittler-in-chief wasn't throwing insults continuously?

Why? Or are we supposed to be dumb, do you think we're dumb, Okian Warrior? He made up insults about Cruz and Rubio, let alone Clinton and Obama.

He spent six years birthering and mongering himself.

I don't think anyone on the left has a clue how ineffective their campaign of crying, whining, and insulting is. Their actions are not turning minds and swaying the voters they will need if they want to win future elections.

3 million voters more for Hillary than Trump. Only chance gave him the win. And the illegal manipulations in Wisconsin and Michigan by GOP governments. Oh sure, he wants to believe he won in a landslide, but he also wants us to believe his inauguration was well-attended. You know what's got people out? The protest against him. Still ongoing.

That should tell even a fraudulent idiot such as yourself something. Trump is DEAD in the water. He's going to be lucky if the CIA doesn't poison him just to get him out of the way.

I have no idea how they can continue with this ludicrous behaviour, but I'm sure the right will continue to laugh at them while they do it.

The right's going to laugh its way into a revolution fomented by its own incompetence. They already fucked up badly in North Carolina, the governor there now has a good way to blister them down,

Is it psychologically rigged, yes. Is it mathematically rigged, no.

but it's amazing the number of times they cheat people out of big jackpots by declaring that the machine had malfunctioned...

Reality is racist: Blacks have nearly 3 times higher rate of single-parenthood in the US, than other races. And that — being raised without a father — is one giant reason for much higher likelihood of criminality later in life.

Whatever the reasons for that, it is not Google's fault.

He says he's been told by many police leaders that officers who normally would stop to question suspicious people are opting to stay in their patrol cars for fear of having their encounters recorded and become video sensations

Good...maybe they'll learn a little fucking restraint instead of popping out of their cars and shooting 12-year old kids for holding a toy gun.

Seriously, stay in your fucking copmobile unless you have a reason to be "interacting" with the public. It's not your job to go on fishing expeditions hoping to make another arrest or choking a guy to death for selling cigarettes or "jogging while black".

If they want to scare her they wake her up in the middle of the night with 4 people in her bedroom and quietly tell her that if she keeps it up bad things might happen. Then they proceed to make themselves visible at times, for example show up and do the same thing to their mother, let her see them talking to someone she cares about, etc.. It's far more intimidating, far more effective and completely deniable. She doesn't listen and she ends up in a "car accident" or commits "suicide".

Oh dude, like the Dark Crusaders did to Dave Chappelle to make him quit his show!
Dave Chappelle Conspiracy Theory

Might be my favorite conspiracy theory of all time.

I have no idea what the real story is,

There is a less hysterical piece at NewsOne, also this from the Washington Times. There is also an opposing opinion in the Baltimore Sun.

Does that help?

Not a worry- seems like many cops would just shoot Lassie first and then try to ask questions (probably "bark if you don't want us to search").

FYI - "best and brightest" usually refers to the policy makers in John Kennedy's administration who got the US into Vietnam. Democrats still like to tell eachother how "smart" they are. Fappers.

Except that the same people who are suggesting the cuts in food programs are ...

72% of Black children are growing up in single-parenthood families. The rate for all races is only 25%.

Are you suggesting, abortion and birth control are less funded for Blacks? Or that the Blacks are buying a different kind of health insurance?

Calling 911 when you life is in danger rarely does any good. Even when it is not screwed up chances of the police showing up in time to stop what you think is about to happen to you are small indeed.

Cops protect cops.

How many cop murders go unsolved? Not many. Why? Because when a cop gets murdered cops think it is important to catch that person. It is not very important to catch your murderer though.

I've got a pet theory that most gun homicides are drug related

You aren't the only one. In recent years Baltimore City tried that approach. Here is one article I found on the subject:
Baltimore’s Crime Drops As War On Drugs Becomes War On Violence.

Correct, but getting Ron Paul's follower's support is key #1 to the Republican strategy.

One has to ask, in the light of reports, what kind of supporters these are.

Yet another neo-Nazi no doubt!

Just because they get married doesn't mean they stay married or hang around as part of the household. His figures might be off, but most of his points still stand:

The US blacks have a self-destructive culture. They glorify what keeps them down.

Then explain cock smoker, wetback, or any of the other shock words used here? Apparently you are too busy being PC to even understand what a troll is or how they work, or do you think Goatse is an ad for getting rectal exams? The WHOLE POINT of using shock words and shock words is...surprise surprise...to make PC dumbasses like yourself have a heart attack and thus feed the troll.

Now when the ones I've heard using that word for anything except shock value has been hard working black folks who are frankly fucking disgusted at shit like this I HONESTLY don't think the problem is a word, do you? I'd say its a culture that lets shifty, lazy, blame everyone else while holding their hand out bullshit to thrive is the problem, and I know plenty of hard working black folks that agree with me.

But if you wanna get rid of that word you are gonna have to get rid of those like in that video, good luck with that. be sure to read the comments by the black folks, you'll see quite a few of them using words like coon that frankly i hadn't heard since the 70s and i'm from the deep south.

Try making real change instead of just bitching, and you may see how far your freedom stretches.

Dare I suggest making a change through legal channels? You know, by running for a political position, with a proper and creative program that changes things for the better? Or maybe you can't actually think that far?
And don't give me any bullshit about connections and money! If you have the ideas and the charisma, you can find funding and contacts to get the word out there and raise money for a campaign, etc.

Oh, and just read about swat teams. If you don't think the Stasi exist in America, read about this:
http://newsone.com/nation/casey-gane-mccalla/arizona-swat-team-kills-marine-in-botched-raid/

Clearly you have no idea just what the STASI did and who they were: undercover agents, extensive infiltrator and informer network, the whole "above and beyond the law"-works. SWAT teams are far, far, far removed from that: they are a branch of the police, bound by the law, answerable to their superiors and the judicial system for any offense. Better go learn your history, for those who fail to learn history are doomed to repeat it.

As for the dead marine, what can I say? Both of them were right: the marine in attempting to defend his home, family, and life against an unknown threat (although why he had a rifle at home is a mystery to me. In Hungary, taking your weapon home is a punishable breach of conduct. You're supposed to leave the arms and ammo at the barracks. But that is beside the point now.); the SWAT team in opening fire on an unknown, armed, possibly hostile contact.
I note that the incident took place in a long, dark corridor, where the low visibility meant no positive ID of the contact. Silhouette indicated a weapon, the officers were in every way in their right to fire at will. Even if the guy came out with his hands up and was shot, I could accept that, although it would be quite a bit harder. But this, confronting a SWAT-team in low visibility, armed, no previous indication of his presence, he got what was coming to him, especially considering that he probably got training in MOUT, so he should have been prepared for this.
Callously, I could say "He rolled the dice, he lost, game over."

You know the main difference between Freedom of Speech and Totalitarian Censorship? If you put up blog post saying "I hate Obama, I wish he was dead!", you get nothing in the US. If you put up a blog post saying "I'm fed up with communism, let's move to something else! Oh yeah, and the Politburo should just up and die!", men in a black Volga will visit you sooner than you can say "Who's that knocking on the door so late at night?".

If you said that about Obama, you might get a visit from the Secret Service.

Anyway, what you mention is tangential freedoms. Many powerful men long ago got over their personal egos and what any nobody says about them since it all gets drowned out in the noise. Try making real change instead of just bitching, and you may see how far your freedom stretches.

Fuck, in one township around here, I can't even let my grass grow more than a few inches without getting threatening letters about $600 a day fines. And yeah, if you have $$$ you can fight it. So that's pretty much what freedom is predicated on here, having $$$.

Within Seattle it is popular knowledge that Seattle cops are abusive and corrupt. [1] [2] [3] There will be no charges because this is business as usual.

Maybe they are going into a better paying industry.

http://newsone.com/nation/news-one-staff/more-women-considering-stripping-in-struggling-economy/

Or maybe they are running away from an industry that considers jokes like that acceptable.

Or maybe they find stripclubs less degrading as a work environment. Also, you don't have to worry about paying back student loans.

Or maybe they are running away from an industry that considers jokes like that acceptable.

If it's the truth that more women are deciding to become strippers, then there is nothing insulting about saying so. Many of these women probably have expenses to pay and families to feed and are doing what they feel like they have to do. If women don't feel like there is a demand for them in IT, why is it a joke or an insult to suggest they might move into another industry that has a great deal of demand for them? You've never had to take a job you didn't like because you needed the money?

If the article was about the way a struggling economy is making more women want to become nurses or accountants, would you still feel like it was an insult or a joke? If not, is your indignation a reaction to a genuine insult or merely a type of Puritannical discomfort towards adult entertainment? To be honest, your assumption that women are "running away" from something because they just can't take it, rather than running towards something, is sort of like calling them weak and cowardly. I doubt you meant it that way, but it's something to consider. I prefer to believe that women who become strippers are doing what they believe is best, and they are doing it whether you would approve of their choices or not.
