Nor are they immune from personal revenge. One of those fuckers does me or my family wrong and I'll burn down their fucking house in the middle of the night.
Bad Idea. Here's a better plan:
- call the TSA - call the FBI - call your congresscritter - call your senator - call the media - call your lawyer
Not necessarily in that order, but the point is, don't resort to vigilantism.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders was was hounded out of a restaurant because people didn't want her there. I wouldn't either. But if she was in a car wreck and in danger of dying, I for one wouldn't hesitate a split-second about saving her, no matter what I think of her politics or relationship with the truth.
I have little sympathy for TSA rent-a-cops who abuse their authority, but come on. Compare touching your junk to burning in a car wreck. Your humanity demands that you help someone who is in danger of dying. And I have no doubt the TSA employees would do the very same in the reversed situation.
First of all, a tip of the hat to you for participating in the protests.
For the record, I am most definitely not one of Putin's "professionals." Nor am I at all a supporter of Trump and his administration. Very much the opposite.
My original concern about your "lock kids up" protest is that although the sarcasm of it may be obvious to many, there will be those who try to spin it as the "other side" misrepresenting who Trumpists are. On reflection, I'm thinking your idea may not be such a bad one after all, if carried out briefly, and with an obvious display of parody.
Unfortunately, it would be hard to do the experiment at an actual Trump rally, but maybe it could be simulated at one of the protests against separating the kids? What if each of the protestors has a piece of paper with Trump's face on it and they use it for a "Word from the OTHER side" chant? Just a minute or two of chanting somewhere in the protest? I think the video of a mob of angry Trump faces chanting "Lock kids up, LOCK KIDS UP!" would have the potential to go viral--and it might even get into the heads of some of Trump's followers.
In other words, a false-flag operation? No. Just no. Very bad idea.
He rented a room from a lobbyist who had dealings with the EPA for $50 a night. I'm sure any visitor to Washington could get a similar deal. The bed wasn't great though, others have described it as "a bit swampy".
I suppose he didn't like it either. So he had an aide get him a new one. From guess where?
The result showing decaf might have a similar effect is possibly the most interesting point in the study. It suggests that the effect is from something other than caffeine, which would mean there's more interesting chemicals in coffee.
Coffee is extremely complex chemically. There is a lot to coffee besides just the caffeine.
Coffee is a rich source of disease-fighting antioxidants. And studies have shown that it may reduce cavities, boost athletic performance, improve moods, and stop headaches -- not to mention reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, colon cancer, liver cancer, gall stones, cirrhosis of the liver, and Parkinson's diseases.
My point was that Trump is hell-bent on undoing everything done by his predecessors, especially Obama. If he didn't do it, it's no good. That doesn't mean he is immune to making bad deals.
That. The whole FCC fraudulently killed it because the republicans wanted it -- because they're being paid a lot by big ISP who will get to charge you more.
Republicans do everything against the public's best interest and the same victims are happy to vote for 'em repeatedly. Trump having approval ratings that aren't negative is proof that they're amazingly fucking stupid.
Trump's overall approval rating has been consistently low compared to other recent presidents. But among Republicans, his approval rating is at 90%.

Just because someone calls it 'art' doesn't meant it is art.
Actually, if someone calls it art, then yes, it is art.
Whether it is good art is another question.

It's a private establishment. So they should have the right to refuse service to anyone, for any reason.
Well...
Whether it's because they don't feel like serving women,
No

No
or 2 fags wanting a cake.
Alas, I'll give you that, given the recent SCOTUS ruling. Sexual orientation is not yet a protected status, but perhaps someday it will be.
Sometimes life just isn't fair.
"Sometimes?" More like often. But let us endeavour to continue to expand the boundaries of fairness.
No, that is not exactly the same thing.

Humanity first. Then politics.
Oh puh-leeze.

the revenue comes from ads not watchers...if I bought my car based on an ad i'd be (fill in the blank)
One word: ratings.
The more watchers they have, the more they can charge advertisers.
This must have been posted by the EPA as proof that global warming/climate change is a hoax.
Erstwhile EPA head Scott Pruitt could freeze hell over by admitting climate change is real. Maybe there'd be a spillover? Hey, I can hope.
Todos seremos morenos bajo el Sol.
(there is not english-translation of the above phrase)
Google translate says it means "We will all be dark under the Sun."
Seems to me that a creepy irony survived the translation.
>We need more research into thorium reactors: Chinese engineers are on it. Cost for US is MSRP+25% for US.
Not just the Chinese. Canadians have been working on Thorium reactors too, so the US can just ... uh ...
Never mind.
zero debate among climate scientists
Zero debate among flat earth scientists as well.
One is an oxymoron. The other is not.

Stick to the truth. It wins in the end.

This. And I don't it's news that coffee can be good for you. An excerpt from this page:
Coffee is a rich source of disease-fighting antioxidants.

Yeah, lol, I see what you mean. But keep in mind the line from Fight Club:
On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.
When you put in Cream and Sugar in it. I expect you counteract many of its positive effects.
Sugar yes. Cream no.
Fat gets a bad rap. It's carbs that you should avoid. Keep your blood sugar (and insulin) low. Don't feed the cancer trolls.
Before I answer with something more thought out first tell me what AGW means. I'm drawing a blank on this one.
AGW = Anthropogenic Global Warming.
If you are "drawing a blank" on that, then you have no business posting to this discussion.
My point was that Trump is hell-bent on undoing everything done by his predecessors, especially Obama. If he didn't do it, it's no good. That doesn't mean he is immune to making bad deals.
Every deal that Trump didn't make himself is a bad deal for Trump, no compromise.
FTFY
Wat? Trump ran on this, and pretty much everything else that he's done.
Trump has followed through more campaign promises than any president in 40 years.
Let's just watch this page.
I'll bring the popcorn.
You were saying?
That. The whole FCC fraudulently killed it because the republicans wanted it -- because they're being paid a lot by big ISP who will get to charge you more.
No, not the whole FCC. Just the Republicans on it.
Republicans do everything against the public's best interest and the same victims are happy to vote for 'em repeatedly. Trump having approval ratings that aren't negative is proof that they're amazingly fucking stupid.
Trump's overall approval rating has been consistently low compared to other recent presidents. But among Republicans, his approval rating is at 90%.
The Republican party is Trump's bitch.
I doubt they'll believe Trump promises again.
I don't think they believed them the first time.
The press takes [Trump] literally, but not seriously; his supporters take him seriously, but not literally.

Yeah. Each one sitting on a hot grit in Natalie Portman's pants. In a Beowulf cluster of Soviet Russias that fit you!
Ok, I'm done. I'll see myself out.
TFS mangles the original (full) sentence from TFA:
But then IBM debuted an even tinier “computer” in February, a 1mm x 1mm chip with “several hundred thousand” transistors.
TFS changed "then" to "after".
