In Louisville Kentucky they have
free monthly newspapers (that they have literally EVERYWHERE) featuring the mugshots of everyone, with stats!

I was working down there for 3 months, and we used to take them around, and get them autographed:)

You'd hear people bragging about making the paper!

MUGSHOTS: APRIL 2018 ROUNDUP
Apr 4, 2018 10:22 AM
See who's been arrested this month in WAVE Country and read about the crimes they're accused of committing. An arrest is not a presumption of guilt. (Click each mugshot for more.)

where are the bodies?

You know, there's a thing called Google. You can search for things like this. It's not hard, snowflake.
http://www.wave3.com/story/344...
I could go on and on with these links. Kids in the back where the two adults in the front OD and are now dead, while driving a car in traffic. And so on and so on. Happens a lot lately.

Raped? Here you go. Just google these. There are plenty of examples if you look.

I remember incident after incident in the early 1970s. Stupid kids doing drugs and dying. They'd also steal to support their habit because they can't hold a job.

So it's not a form of slavery to outlaw these. It's a form of slavery if you're a user. Not talking about MJ. Heroin, that's bad shit. I'm seeing it all over again as dumb kids use it and they're hooked. Now their stealing, all kinds of illegal activities, then end up dead just like they did 50 years ago. That's why it's illegal.

Politicians would love to find a way to not put drug offenders in jail. Come up with something and let them know. It would be an easy fix to simply shoot heroin addicts. They're going to end up dead anyway. I proposed to my State Senator to set aside a house where addicts could go and just supply them all the heroin they want. It won't be long after all. It'll save society from being robbed, hit by them driving cars, etc. He didn't have the guts to introduce it. I guess more people have to die first.

It doesn't affect 87% of all Muslims, so it isn't a ban, and it affects the 10% Christian populations of those countries and other religions, so it isn't a religious thing.

Section 5 (b) of the executive order:
"Upon the resumption of USRAP admissions, the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Secretary of Homeland Security, is further directed to make changes, to the extent permitted by law, to prioritize refugee claims made by individuals on the basis of religious-based persecution, provided that the religion of the individual is a minority religion in the individual's country of nationality."

Considering every one of these countries are majority Muslim, this is indeed a religious thing.

Muslims in the US have come out in favor of extreme vetting

And yet, more speak out in opposition.

some Muslim *countries* have come out in favor of the ban

Oh good. The countries who actually have originated people who commit terrorist acts on US soil in the past 40 years aren't upset because they weren't on the ban list. This makes the US safer how, again?

and the president's approval rating has jumped 5 points

So polls by media outlets with a conservative lean that support your position are trustworthy, but all others are "fake news" put out by the "mainstream media". Just want to make sure I've got the logic sorted out here.

And for the record, Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952:

"Whenever the president finds that the entry of aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, the president may, by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or non-immigrant's or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate."

Obama used this same law at least six times between 2010 and 2014 against people in Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Crimea

The act was invoked as a direct reaction to the civil war in Syria, the formation of ISIS, its subsequent offensive into Iraq, and the annexation of Crimea. All major regional events. The act was invoked this time to block entry by terrorists from countries with no recent major events. Technically the president has the power under the act to say, "only caucasian females with blonde hair weighing between 100 and 140 pounds may enter the US," but he still has to justify it.

Can someone explain how this is anything to get worked up over?

In the simplest terms, because executive orders that very blatantly do not help any of the things they say they are for are not a good thing.

Gender Netural Graham, Chuck You Schumer, Hillary, Mark Zuckerberg, Hollywood elites, or the establishment globalist media.

Well, that ended pretty predictably. At least the pro-Trump diehard posts are consistent in their straw man demonizing.

Many CEOs Believe Technology Will Make People Largely Irrelevant

The page mentioned a study, something something, many people believe... not a single reference or link to said study. It took a good while to find a link to the study (link here) via this article (link here).

The fuckers at betanews didn't even bother to summarize the study properly (which states that human capital IS BEING UNDERSTIMATE IN FAVOR OF TECHNOLOGY.) They (mis)quoted the study from this paragraph, ignoring everything else (bold emphasis mine):

CEOs’ distorted perceptions demonstrate the extent to which people are being painted out of the future of work—and the risk to organizations that do not recognize the potential of people to generate value: 44% of leaders in large global businesses told Korn Ferry that they believe that the prevalence of robotics, automation, and artificial intelligence (AI) will make people “largely irrelevant” in the future of work.

I actually happen to believe that human capital will hold sway ... in countries that invest in human capital. You simply retrain people. There is always work to do after you automate things. You free up work that was in the back burner, new types of tasks emerge, new opportunities, new problems.

But this requires a country to invest in its human capital. Frankly, the US, and the American people are failing this litmus test badly. But that's another story for another day.

Moral of the story: don't quote betanews.

Why bother with a background check? Just mandate all camera equipment be compatible with Cinavia, and just have the police broadcast on full blast anytime someone pulls out a camera. Seems to be a lot easier of an option to enforce than a background check. As a bonus any picture / video that does make it online is evidence of both mandate violation and copy protection circumvention. (Thanks DMCA!) Which makes prosecuting a breeze! The criminal is forced to confess their own guilt by default! Also perfect for oppression!

/sarcasm mode off.

In all seriousness though, as a person who lives in Kentucky, we have the news constantly going on about the latest murder (Not even in the state or Indiana....), up to the minute coverage of the media standing around the crime scene demanding answers from the police when the incident occurred only 15 minutes ago. (The news team was there before EMS???? WTF???) etc. It's hardly surprising that we're accustomed to it now, but if Representative Carney thinks that mandating a fine will make people be more respectful for the victims, he's barking up the wrong tree. If he really wants people to respect the victims maybe he should do something about the media glorifying it for ratings every chance they get instead.

I live in the next city over from this whole thing, so it is has been played out on the local news for the past few weeks. When the shooter was arrested the toy and it's camera were returned to the guy who was holding the controller along with the video card and whatever else he was using to record. A few days later this guy reappears and suddenly makes the "unedited" video available to everyone....If I had a few days I'm sure I could alter the video sufficiently enough to make it look like I was Mother Theresa too. The shooter will get off with a fine for discharging his weapon in city limits (all 6-10 streets I can't remember now) because there are so many holes in this and such laughable 'investigation" by the cop, it will be a wonder if the shooter can't get the fine waived by a good lawyer. I'll start with this part...any police officer with a quarter of a brain would have retained the drone after extensive photography of it's location, as evidence, for damage, for forensics of the video, for evidence. As I understand it was handed back to the owner. Typical regretfully of these glorified rent a cops these small cities hire to "police protection" He really needs to go back to running radar on the main street through this subdivision, speed limit 20MPH, when outside the "city" it's 35MPH. Yes he is a revenue source, not law enforcement. Oh the police chief? http://www.wave3.com/story/235...

Like that guy who built his house on public property, these islands will just be removed if they aren't part of China. That's kind of sociopathic of them to pull that kind of a stunt unless the dispute is resolved, cooperatively.

Except dude who owned that house didn't have a huge army, or nuclear weapons or all those other good things that make international relations so much fun.

What world do you live in? Police don't just raid a house because of some tag on Google Earth. What nonsense. You think we have a fleet of detectives monitoring Facebook in case someone posts "committin' a crime right naw!" And we announce ourselves so the homeowner would have no doubt it's the police and not some "intruder breaking down their door at 3am."!

What world do you live in sir? Clearly not the same one the rest of us do.

Likewise, if there was a law that prohibited prayer in anyplace outside of a religious institution, I could say I was not an anti-religious zealot because I only supported the enforcement in flagrant cases, for instance, where a family was praying in public in a distracting manner, or where someone was having a party and playing Fireflight too loud. Then we could bring them to court and prosecute them for playing. You see, I don't hate the people who choose to worship false idols and fails to follow the bible(Matthew 6:5), I simply want an ordered society where we follow the rule of law. That I get to harass people who annoy me, even when they are in the privacy of their own home, is just frosting on the cake.

Just because one hates a little less than one peers does not give the person a right to deny their bigotry. Is a person who only burns down empty churches and synagogues any less of a bigot than someone who shoot the members? I would think not. Just because one is a little less hateful and therefore is ridiculed by one's peers, does that give free reign to other denegate the annoying people? I don't think so.

I believe that Card thinks he is not a homophobe just like rush thinks he did nothing wrong on his little trip to the DR or Santorum thinks that he believes he has respect for the ability of woman to think for herself. And all these people are probably a little less crazy than some of the other people in their peer group, and for that we can be thankful. That there are some insane people who are not so insane as to actually want to do harm to the people they hate, unless, or course, they don't know their place. People who are just keeping the lesser folks in their place and enforcing the norms of society, then, are to thanks, not called out for who they are.

Which is to say that I know where Card is coming from, and by the measure of the religious right that wishes to convert anyone they do not agree with I am sure he is a flaming liberal that love to bend over for Obama, but in the world where love and tolerance and acceptance prevail, only a homophobe could write something like that. The rest of us believe that we adults should be able to have consensual sex in our homes and show affection for who we please outdoors. After all, I don't see police harassing straight couples leaving the theatre.

Fosomax is a crazy drug, it stops bone turnover and in some cases has lead to patients having to have their jaw bone removed. That's nasty!

Why no citations with your charge of Democratic complicity? There were 8 indicted, and I am aware of the party affiliation for four of those, and their party affiliation count runs an even 2-2 split between Republican/Democrat.

Charles Wayne Jones was the Democratic Election Commissioner, and William E. Stivers was the democrat judge for Manchester Precinct, and is current Clay County Democratic Chairman.

Freddy W. Thompson is a Republican and Clay County Court Clerk; Paul E. Bishop was the Manchester precinct Republican Judge.

Now let's discuss two other indicted individuals, and why their party affiliation is irrelevant to this analysis.

William and Debra Morris are owners of a Clay County sanitation company that has contracts with local governments. They are not politicians, and were motivated to commit election fraud as a means to extort business contracts from officials they helped elect through their criminal activities.

I score the partisan affiliation of the indicted as 2 Dem - 2 Rep - 2 irrelevant - 2 unknown. Where's the evidence of a predominant Democratic participation in this?

Additionally, something your attempt at deciphering party affiliation through simple internet searches did not expose is that there was a prior 2007 indictment handed down in Clay county, KY., for election fraud, and several of those indicted were Republicans: former county Clerk Jennings White; former Clay County judge-executive James Garrison; former sheriff Edd Jordan; and former state representative Barbara White Colter. The 2007 indictment also involved these four officials making a deal with an arrested drug dealer to assist them with their vote buying scheme.

This racketeering had nothing to do with party politics, your paranoid fantasy notwithstanding. This was a criminal conspiracy, that involved more than just conning the local rubes into believing they had finalized their votes, then changing the votes to a preset slate of approved candidates. It also involved shaking down certain candidates for money, used for purchasing some votes in the county, as well as fattening the wallets of co-conspirators.

The party affiliation of Clay County voters is predominately Republican. Maybe you should be asking yourself, why these upright Republicans were willing to have their votes so cheaply purchased by scummy Boss Hogg Politicians.

Actually, the 1 to 2 year sentence was way too light, IMO. Something more along the line of a public (televised) hanging or draw-and-quartering (or perhaps more toward your tastes, impalement.)

While I really dislike spam, since people who murder children (no it's not about abortion) often get no prison time, it really seems a little severe. Is spamming 100 million people worse than murdering one child? Is that the Slashdot ethos?
