BBC Taken Offline By 'Anti-IS' Group (bbc.co.uk)
New submitter shilly writes: The BBC is reporting that all its websites were taken offline on New Year's Eve for several hours, and the attack appears to be from a group calling itself New World Hacking. The group claims its raison d'être is to attack IS, but wanted to test out its capabilities first and chose the BBC as a target. A member of the group said, "We realize sometimes what we do is not always the right choice, but without cyber hackers... who is there to fight off online terrorists?"
Please explain how you come to that decision. I'm sure the world would like to know..
Probably was brainwashed by Fox News and talk radio.
Of course, people like that don't have much in the way of brains to wash.
Nobody is more close-minded than a "progressive".
Campus speech codes, shouting down speakers that aren't "progressive", "microagression", calling people "racist" or "sexist" because they don't think "X" is the proper approach to something when "X" is the hive-mind-agreed-upon "progressive" policy.
Watch the shit hit the fan if you simply point out that by far the largest contributor to gun violence in the US is black-on-black crime with already-illegal guns and almost all of that occurs in very restricted geographical areas almost all under one-party Democrat rule. Those are facts that make a "progressive" head explode because it doesn't fit their preconceived notions.
Point out that when you control for things like education, hours worked, experience, and all other variables that there is no "gender gap" in pay, and you get to watch "progressives" go crazy.
Mention the fact that Michael Brown was a 300-lber who just robbed a convenience store - beating on the clerk in the process - instead of some harmless "innocent teen", and was probably panicked and desperate to escape when the Ferguson police started questioning him a few minutes later and watch "progressives" spit and sputter.
But hey, you can pat yourself on the back all fucking day with your close-minded "facts have a liberal bias". I do wonder if Detroit's treasurer would agree with you, though.
And I also have to wonder how many "progressive" loons (but I repeat myself...) who ranted about "BOOOOSH LIED!!!!" are going to vote for Hillary!, who claimed, among her myriad documented lies, was named after Sir Edmund Hillary seven years before he climbed Everest. Who lied about not having classified data on her illegal mail server.
