If we forget what we did, we won’t know who we are. I’m warning of an eradication of the American memory that could result, ultimately, in an erosion of the American spirit.” Ronald Reagan Quote II But I respect her as an opponent – to do otherwise would be to lie to ourselves that our opponents are hopeless and helpless. She’s a tough old bird, surviving cancer and other perils and yet she always comes back to torment us with her appalling jurisprudence. You gotta give her props for never quitting. She’s the Energizer Liberal Jurist.Kurt Schlichter Quote III "Having my culture represented by an almost entirely white troupe of dancers is incredibly frustrating. Additionally, the director, and other representatives of the theater company absolve themselves of cultural responsibility by saying that the point of the show is to increase exposure of Hinduism and its traditions. Hinduism is not widely practiced by white people. Hinduism is not widely practiced by Europeans. Hinduism is practiced mostly by South Asian people, who are historically not white and have faced discrimination for that.” White European dancers will never know my intersectional experience as a Hindu woman, being a brown bodied person and the other aspects of systematic racism that I, as well as other South Asian people, have experienced,”Maya Krishna Social media posts from the University of Illinois campus police are encouraging students to report “acts of intolerance” to the school’s Bias Assessment and Response Team.

A California judge has ruled that American cops can’t force people to unlock a mobile phone with their face or finger. The ruling goes further to protect people’s private lives from government searches than any before and is being hailed as a potentially landmark decision. Previously, U.S. judges had ruled that police were allowed to force unlock devices like Apple’s iPhone with biometrics, such as fingerprints, faces or irises. That was despite the fact feds weren’t permitted to force a suspect to divulge a passcode. But according to a ruling uncovered by Forbes, all logins are equal. Rome vs. The Vatican, Follow the money. A row has broken out between the mayor of Rome and the Roman Catholic Church over what should happen to coins retrieved from the Trevi fountain. Every year nearly €1.5m (£1.3m) is fished out of the famous landmark. It is traditionally given to a Catholic charity to help the destitute. But now Mayor Virginia Raggi wants the money spent on the city's crumbling infrastructure instead. The Catholic charity Caritas says the loss of income will hit the poor. The funniest thing I've seen on Twitter lately. January 15, 1941, Born on this day, Don Van Vliet, (Captain Beefheart), American musician, singer-songwriter and artist. Released the albums 'Safe As Milk', 'Trout Mask Replica', and 'Strictly Personal' with his Magic Band. His expressionist paintings and drawings have been exhibited in art galleries and museums across the world. Beefheart died on 17th Dec 2010 aged 69 from complications from multiple sclerosis. via thisdayinmusic.com January 15, 1948, Born on this day, Ronnie Van Zant, vocalist with Lynyrd Skynyrd who had the 1974 US No. 8 single 'Sweet Home Alabama' and the 1982 UK No. 21 single 'Freebird'. Van Zant died in a plane crash between shows from Greenville, South Carolina to Baton Rouge, Louisiana on October 20th 1977 along with bandmates Steve Gaines and Cassie Gaines. Remaining band members survived, although all were seriously injured via thisdayinmusic.com It appears everyone involved in this story deserves a participation trophy in this Genius Award Contest. A 62-year-old woman ‘came back from the dead’ in a morgue and was rushed to intensive care – only to die again several hours later from hypothermia. The grandmother had been drinking with relatives at a party in Vasilyevka, Russia, when she appeared to have passed away. A policeman then certified her as dead and took her ‘body’ in a hearse to the morgue.

Hinduism is designed to institutionalize racism and ensure that white/light brown people will rule over browner people for perpetuity. That is the whole point, Ms Maya.

The bit about face unlock and compelled password disclosure is good to see. It should be like a safe with a combination lock. I can be ordered to unlock it, or to provide the combination, but I can refuse because that is a clear-cut fifth amendment problem. If they cops *really* want what I have it in, they can hire a safe cracker to open it if they have a warrant.
Electronics should be no different. Can't crack the safe? Tough shit. The fifth amendment isn't any more optional the rest of them. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at January 15, 2019 10:06 PM (echjQ) Posted by: Ha at January 15, 2019 10:06 PM (MAstk) 29

I must say it would be darkly amusing watching overweight, out of shape bureaucrats attempting to beat one of their own to death. If one keeled over from a heart attack halfway through, would that count as decimation complete, or as a bonus?

Said they were the coolest guys on earth but if you fucked with them they'd literally cut you to pieces. He related a story about watching them attack a Japanese position-- afterwords, another guy told him they'd found the ground in front of the position covered with the Gurkha's rifles. They'd dropped them, charged in and slaughtered everyone with kukris. Posted by: Vanya at January 15, 2019 10:18 PM (7PLM4) 91

And that will need to be an SC fight. This is a clear-cut fifth amendment issue. Or do they have some tortured logic that biometrics are different from passwords somehow?
Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at January 15, 2019 10:10 PM (echjQ) ++++ There is no difference under the law. The judge can order you to give the password or submit to the biometrics. The only difference is the practical one. They can hold you down and force you to give the fingerprints, etc, but they can't actually force you to give them the password. So, the judge finds you in contempt and throws your ass in jail until you give in. He can afford to wait you out. He can be stubborn and go home and sleep in his own bed at night, while your stubbornness means sleeping in a jail cot. That is, if you are lucky and don't get stuck sleeping on the floor next to the toilet because they are overcrowded and don't have enough cots. Posted by: Anon Y.

I hope I'm not boring y'all with my updates, but since I shared the bad news and begged for prayers, I think it only proper that I share the good news/prayer results as well.
So today Robin (youngest sister) and I went to visit Mr. Empire. He is looking MUCH better than when he collapsed Sunday, and they have him sitting in a chair and walking (with a walker at the moment, rather than his usual cane). That was a major relief to me, I can tell you! He's also talking better, as long as he doesn't try to speak too quickly (at which point, "tongue gets over eye teeth, and can't see what I'm trying to say", but as the deyhdration continues to improve, I'm hoping that will also resolve itself. Folks, do yourselves and the rest of the Morons a favor, and keep hydrated! I went through this last Christmas, now it's Mr. Empire, and before that it was Ace. Dehydration is Really Serious Business, and can be fatal ... so do yourselves and the rest of us a favor -- keep drinking anything that won't DEhydrate you.

Posted by: Vanya at January 15, 2019 10:27 PM (7PLM4) Given their losses in WW II, they probably could not have sustained the empire, but I think it was a great loss to World Civilization that the Brits left that area to its own devices.

It's a lost battle because of the legal POV that it is not a violation of the 5th to compel you to give the password. I think that's wrong, but if you start with the premise that they are entitled to force you to give the password, then the contempt rulings make sense. The judge gives an legally valid order, you disobey, he hits you with contempt until you knuckle under.

After a long day at work I finally got around to reading that side bar post by Rich Lowery. Still fuming. So, he's upset with the FBI for investigating the President but thinks since he thinks the President is an idiot, impeachment by Congress is something mentioned in the article. See how that works? Upset about clearly unconstitutional behavior but national political upheaval and malpractice is cool, works for him. What a tool.

Today in the Annals of the Pookette Wars:
She needed to bring something to Show and Tell that began with a F or R. She couldn't bring a toy, since that would cause other kids to "covet." So we decided while she was in the bathtub to have her bring an American flag. A crisis emerged when it was revealed that she had broken the stick of her miniature flag and straightline winds had damaged our outside flagpole. Since she goes to a patriotic school, I told her to use the flag in her classroom to tell the others how she would respect it when she lived on an Air Force Base. However, in the aftermath of battles over Penguin and her hair choices, the idea was forgotten and she told her teacher that she didn't have anything. Now she wants to seize tomorrow with her flag pillow. This epic saga will continue, I am sure. Posted by: pookysgirl is an exasperated mother at January 15, 2019 10:41 PM (XKZwp) 185

sunny, dry, nothing wrong with the roads. there were three accidents in a 10 mile stretch. middle accident was only two cars. dodge ram and mercedes c class. the first and third smashups were so bad that no one even bothered with the little two car incident. when were were driving by at 5mph the tristar from the mercedes grill was lying in the middle of the express lane with one leg broken. would have made a nice movie shot or bmw commercial.

Seems that it would be fairly easy to install a deadman's switch on an iPhone.
You can already set up your iPhone to auto-wipe if the wrong password is entered ten times in a row, and you can set up your iPhone so you can wipe it remotely, upon your signal. Doesn't seem like much of an extension to have an app that would wipe your phone if a certain amount of time had passed since a valid login. So, if you don't log in for twelve hours, say, the phone auto-wipes. If the cops complain, shrug, and say that you are worried about thieves getting your information.

I've done the German car thing, four times now. One Benz, three BMWs.
Only the Benz suffered a cracked cylinder head at 235k ish miles. And that was due to a failed thermostat, not an inherent flaw in the head itself. One 735i BMW ate it's driveshaft center-bearing. That one required a drive shaft rebuild, which as I recall, cost about $300 in 1995 dollars, vs. a new BMW shaft and bearing, at roughly $1,200. That's about as bad as it got on expenditures. The Benz (300d), cried out for all new vacuum lines, but I really didn't need the pneumatic door locks or cruise control that badly. I'd kill for a "new" 1978 Toyota Corolla SR-5.

Polliwog --
Main concern is getting Mr. Empire1 back up and running. Definitely look forward to running with you, but am also a big believer in family being priority. Of course, but there's nothing I can physically do to help him in the hospital (except maybe warn the nurses about his smart-alecky sense of humor, which is back in full force)! The pets need fed, and I'm taking advantage of stress/boredom to do a spring cleaning a bit early. The download needs no attention except for re-starting it in the morning and shutting it down before bed. So I spend 3-4 hours a day with him, then come back home to do maintenance and prepare for his return. Which reminds me -- need to check the level in the propane tank tomorrow.

The most interesting thing said today was Beto O'Rourke musing that it might be time to get rid of the Constitution.
"Does this still work?" O'Rourke asked WaPo. "Can an empire like ours with military presence in over 170 countries around the globe, with trading relationships ... and security agreements in every continent, can it still be managed by the same principles that were set down 230-plus years ago?" I think this is where the Left is going. The Constitution is too constraining, and if they get enough power, they intend to jettison the Constitution, without going through that pesky amendment process. They'll just announce the inauguration of the Second American Republic, and come up with a new set of guiding laws that they find more congenial.

Not saying it's a fact or claiming any sort of supremacy for anyone.
But so many who claim they are treated poorly because of their skin color apparently never consider that perhaps some other trait sets people off that is also coincident to their skin color. Or it could just be that what they believe to be bigotry is just plain old dislike at first sight of other people with no cause ignited by their skin color. It happens. When someone is watching for bad behavior, it's usually easy to find or at least claim they found it. And since humans are not perfect nor universally likable, it's quite possible certain races have traits that other races find objectionable. The notion of equality is misconstrued. All persons should have equal opportunity but since humans are faulty, that is not guaranteed. Just like justice is not guaranteed. Equal outcome cannot be guaranteed without threat of violence brought about by oppressive regulation. And even then many will disagree with the outcomes. Meanwhile so many are oppressed unto death it becomes obvious that guaranteed equal outcomes can never be worth the price paid by too many.

291 So, would it be legal for the cops to use, say, the mugshot to try to unlock the phone? My wife used the facial recognition thing to unlock her phone for a while. Tried it with a picture, and sure enough, it unlocked. This was years ago, though, so maybe it's been improved.

I find Frank Zappa pretty dull as well. I know, I know, I should be burned. Some of his music is good, at least as it starts out, then it goes into extended wankery. And his lyrics seem like an afterthought--a rather stupid afterthought, like, "Oh goodness, I need to have something for the singers to sing. I'll write something in the taxi on the way to the studio." Posted by: BeckoningChasm's PayPal at January 15, 2019 11:12 PM (l9m7l) First, go back to 1973. It will immediately start making sense.

Speaking of cultural appropriation idiots, I caught a few minutes of the Disney movie Moana the other day, the story about some pacific island princess and there was some outrage by the usual suspects about white girls wearing Moana Halloween costumes or some such BS. It occurred to me while watching that Moana was nothing like a young Pacific Islander from a couple hundred years ago. . She was, like very other Disney princess, a highly idealized version of American high school girls. With a grass dress. Still,the idiot SJW were able to work themselves into a frenzy about supposed cultural appropriation of some trick-or-treaters.
What the f*** is wrong with these people? And this killjoy Maya SJW? Yeah, she looks like a traditional Hindu in her jean jacket. Which, BTW, she appropriated from white American teenagers from the 60s and 70s without even a thank you. Posted by: Ripley at January 15, 2019 11:34 PM (NbRJx) 338

Beta has no actual accomplishments, so I guess he wants us to believe he is a great thinker of deep thoughts.
Beto isn't bright enough to propose getting rid of the Constitution on his own, so someone has put him up to it. Makes sense - we have been inundated with piecemeal denunciations of parts of the Constitution since Trump was elected - it makes sense that eventually this would all meld into a fundamental denunciation of the document. I'm sure the argument will be that the Constitution gives small states too much power, and it is impossible to fix that through the amendment process (since small states can block amendments), so the Constitution as a whole needs to be annulled. Reading through the left-wing denunciations of the Senate and Electoral College, one would never guess that seven of the ten most populous states voted for Trump, and five of the ten least populous states voted for Hillary.

I was subscribed to Owen Benjamin a while ago, but left when he would go on rants of a particular heat and tempo that would go on unwavering for about an hour. It was obviously unhealthy, but at the time he didn't say anything more crazy than pizza-gate.
Owen became the ridiculous topic on a stream of another youtuber, where he called Jordan Peterson an evil gay wizard. Not as a joke, as incredible as that may be. I saw Milo on facebutt giving full support of Owen Benjamin, and Vox Dei (another person with a hate-boner for Peterson). Milo called Peterson a marxist, and said that he would give evidence.

Six flag raisers. Extra kid in the photo (tho it's quite cool). And then there's con-TRA-versy, as the Brits say, about the exact ID of the six. A Shultz is argued by some to be in the photo. But we know 3 of the conventionally ID'd six died within a week or two on Iwo, and the the other 3 famously came back and did a bond tour. Dunno about Shultz. Still the most produced/reproduced photo in history, I think. Though I've always wondered about Neil Armstrong's flag salute on the Moon - just through population increase and global comms and development by 1969, seems that pic would have outdone Rosenthal's famous pic.

LOL We forgot what a bunch of fuckholes they were even then, albeit somewhat more muted compared to today. Posted by: Froderick Wonkensteen at January 16, 2019 12:00 AM (+dsLj) 377
The Steve King thing is, as noted, unbelievable, in the routine believable manner of today.
Again - if the so-called uproar is over the one distorted quote from one interview, this is incredible. It indicates, Trump notwithstanding, things are even worse than before. The C'ville idiocy sort of showed the same thing. The insane desperate drive to join any lynch mob, complete lack of interest in facts or reality - a sort of special hate and bigotry of its own kind. And Scott of SC showed his depth and character by immediately joining the mob, in a particularly loathsome and slanderous fashion. Posted by: rhomboid at January 16, 2019 12:01 AM (QDnY+) 378
id we ever decide on a razor alternative? I've used
Gillette for decades. Harry's went full homo. Anybody use Shave Club? Otherwise I suppose it's Schick or Bic for local purchase or ? online Posted by: In Vino Veritits at January 15, 2019 11:58 PM (UFLLM) Dorcousa.com Dorco is Korean, and half price of the Gillettes. And once you buy from them, a couple of time a year they have a 50% off their regular price email, so you pay about a quarter of Gillette. Stock up with 6 blade razors, with lotion strip and a nice, heavy handle, for cheap. BTW, In Vino, you are a Wash state guy, right? Anywhere near Seattle tomorrow night?

Jewish Ravioli, was there anything more than the one part where it appears the NYT grossly distorted the import of a rambling statement to make it appear King was lumping in white nationalism/supremacy (whatever those might be, it must be noted) with western civilization, as things whose offensiveness puzzled him?
His next statement, or continuation of his ramble, pretty clearly indicated he was puzzled by the absurdity of some finding the term western civilization offensive, as he had learned about it (western civ) in classrooms.

I still have that undying love and belief in this country, that it is the most exceptional country on the planet, populated by an extraordinary people. Nothing will ever shake that belief. We have prevailed in similar perilous times throughout our history because we are Americans, by virtue of a political system unique in the world. Like Jim in Galveston, I and so many others took that oath with no expiration. It is clear to me that at some point we'll be called on to fulfill it. What form it will take is unknown to me right now, but there will be no hesitation. There is no doubt we'll prevail, no matter the cost--because we ARE Americans, and as such are denied the option of failure. Never forget that.

Barbasol is excellent shaving cream never a wrong choice. The higher-end version of gillette's twin-blade has worked well for me for many years. As good as anything more expensive. The cheaper versions do not do as good a job for me. Lots of scrapes and nicks. Of course it may not be the razor's fault. It may be the hideous pustules and suppurative gangrenous erosions due to infection by The Warp that leaves my skin so easily damaged.

And I have noted McCarthy's incredibly brazen contempt for GOP voters (apparently well founded) as reflected in his 11th hour frenzy about "border security" - something he and his leadership (both sides of the Hill) did nothing to 1) advance, or given Senate Dem obstinacy/risk-taking, 2) politicize, in 2 years of GOP control of both houses.

So far, it's been enhanced with every moving part in the front suspension being replaced as preventative maintenance. Engine had a bit of oil leakage here n' there, so as a result, every gasket in the engine, renewed. Transmission rebuilt, too. New pads, rotors and tires, and at the same time, a full four-wheel alignment. It's an UGLY truck, paint baked in the unrelenting Texas sun. Runs though. Goes down the road as straight as an arrow.

Jim, I've got a couple Trac II handles around, I'll check to see if they're metal-cored. I used that system for many years. As you imply, millions would still be using it, if it hadn't been discontinued. Think I actually bought my last rack of blades overseas - might have been Vietnam.
For several years now I've used some heavy stainless safety razor, either a Merkur or cheaper knock-off, with Feather blades (sort of an Axis shaving system, if I use an Italian shaving cream ....). Domestic brand of shaving soap, with badger-bristle brush. And I stockpiled so many disposables from hotels during past travel-heavy years that I use those at the gym and pool.

"I was subscribed to Owen Benjamin a while ago, but left when he would go on rants of a particular heat and tempo that would go on unwavering for about an hour. It was obviously unhealthy, but at the time he didn't say anything more crazy than pizza-gate.
Owen became the ridiculous topic on a stream of another youtuber, where he called Jordan Peterson an evil gay wizard. Not as a joke, as incredible as that may be. I saw Milo on facebutt giving full support of Owen Benjamin, and Vox Dei (another person with a hate-boner for Peterson). Milo called Peterson a marxist, and said that he would give evidence. A week later he gave a non-apology.

But now he flies Lear Jets, and teaches "Name it and Claim It", as it seems to be a far more effective in the filling of his mega TV church coffers. Peterson isn't fully unlike said preacher. Much of what he teaches is truth, but undermined by the corrosive soul of collectivism, which like the sin of materialism....like the core of all sin, actually... is selfishness.

Heh, I remember when I saw my first real electric service. I worked with a local electrical contractor all through college during the summer. It was natural, because electric power systems are one of my favorite things. I love it like a ficus. Anyway, I had only seen dinky residential services, and I was soon confronted with a 5000A 480V service for the local Sherwin-Williams plant in Fountain Inn. I saw a 5000A main breaker for the first time, and a 5000A switchboard. There were current limiters before the breakers on that switchboard. The fault current of the transformer,coming off its on little substation for the plant, well it was a wee bit more than 10kA. They make breakers with 100kA+ fault withstand and interrupting capacity, but they ain't cheap. I stood there in awe, and my boss laughed his ass off, saying I was worshiping the thing..... Then I did like it was a ficus.... Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at January 16, 2019 01:13 AM (f1Vqw) 501

the thing about never hitting a lady is a moral thing not a legal thing.
you don't want to hit a lady, and I agree with the standard, then that is up to you. however, the law should not recognize a distinction. no one would be nearly as horrified had the recipient been a male. Posted by: yankeefifth at January 16, 2019 01:44 AM (MTjB1) 526
I'll go completely Politically Incorrect, here.
If some broad draws blood, she is No Longer "A Lady". --------- I recollect a couple of Libs at the local lunch counter agreeing that the U.S. had no right to invade Iran, because it was a 'sovereign nation'. I pointed out to them that once Sadam invaded Kuwait, any protections due a 'Sovereign nation' were forfeit. Posted by: Mike Hammer, etc., etc. at January 16, 2019 01:44 AM (HTHlp) 527

Most malls require adult/parental supervision for under 16s. No parents were around the group so the mall dropped the ball to begin with. Maybe the 11 year old will think twice next time before rushing someone.

Twice in the days behind a badge, I had to draw short the aggressions of women who were not ladies.
One, with a simple takedown and arm lock hold. She was yelling Uncle before her tits hit the deck. The other? She took a swing, which was easily dodged. My counter jab was fast, powerful, effective and final. Bitch's eyes rolled up into her head on the way down. She woke up in the USAF E.R., handcuffed to the bedrails. Her formal complaint as to brutality, was dismissed after a 20 minute interview. But again, that was the '70s. Today though, I would have enlisted as a plumber, learned a 100k + trade where WAFs are few, and kept my head down.

I am popping in and out as work demands.
Do not really have much to comment on. Got new a new prescription done a couple weeks ago. The glasses came in first. I had had the last prescription (contact) for a good ten years. Now, this is the first time I have worn glasses for longer than a couple hours since I got contacts, which was *coughthirtyyearsagocough*. It is amazing how bad my vision got without noticing a huge difference until I had something to compare it to- especially driving at night. 'Has it always been this bright?' 'Were those lights always there?' It is kind of funny. To me at least. Plus even with the heavy prescription, they managed to get the glasses light as hell, so they are comfortable.

Observations on the Asheville Mall video:
1.WTH were 11-year-old girls doing at the mall unsupervised at night? 2. I feel bad for that guy, since he was trapped in a no-win situation. Ignore it, get jumped. Walk away, get jumped. Defend yourself, get arrested. 3. To the lady recording the video-why do you sound so shocked? They were deliberately provoking him and one got hurt. You sound older than those girls, so why didn't you put down your phone and try to diffuse the situation? Oh, that's right-the attention was more important than any damage done. No wonder Vic hates going to Asheville. Posted by: pookysgirl at January 16, 2019 02:19 AM (XKZwp) 555

The Non-Story and their contempt for Middle-America shows with every elitist character they type. I typed about Juan Williams earlier in the day and I "said": "Juan Williams never misses a chance to shit himself and wave his pants like a flag."

One prediction among the Brexit discussions:
Basically the EU will piss and moan, but apart from some level of disruption from the usual French troublemakers, things will continue. At some point an actual deal will be signed with very little press coverage in the EU and little fanfare in the UK which allows trade to continue in a manner similar to pre-Maastricht (i.e. pre-1992) Life will go on.

I have no idea who Owen Benjamin is, but if he thinks Jesus is a fictional character he is wrong. Of course there are a variety of opinions about the role of Jesus but no reputable historian thinks Jesus never existed. Even Bart Ehrman who started out as an Evangelical and is now either an Agnostic or Atheist and who writes books on Scripture believes that there was an actual person named Jesus. Much for evidence for him than there is for Mohammed.

Yesterday morning I posted a link to CDR Sal's site, and an article about the FITZ collision.
That thread has now grown to well over 300 comments. And as importantly, if you go to the bottom where the comments link is, you will find links to four updates. I encourage you to take the time to read both the comments from Sals Front Porch crowd (The moral equivalent of Teh Horde), but go to the update links as well. Having served a sea duty tour in the 7th Fleet, there is nothing that I read concerning manning, mindset, qualifications and tasking that is out of step with my experiences. The story of the FITZ is pretty much the story of the Navy, right now. IMHO https://tinyurl.com/yb3u7239 Posted by: Village Idiot's Apprentice at January 16, 2019 06:39 AM (cqNba) 641

Maybe it is just a reflection of our society. Never served but spent 7 years on Navy bases. Heard a CO go into a long winded speech about how what used to be outside his base is now inside. Drugs, rape, incest, spouse abuse.... Like the whole toxic masculinity thing. So 45% of boys are raised by mothers and 72% of teachers are women. I think we can all agree that they have failed to raise men. Look at their hero, Bhuessein raised by a single mother and grandmother who was afraid of every Mohammedan thug!

I've asked her repeatedly the exact temperature she is comfortable at. Just give me a number. There is no correct answer. It is always either too hot or too cold. She'll walk into a room, after walking up and down a flight of stairs and say, "It's too hot in here." Five minutes later, she's grabbing for a sweater to put on because she's too cold.

Maya Krishna comes from the most racist society on earth, one where until recently (and still in places) the fact that your great-great-great-great-great-grandfather shoveled human feces for a living meant that you were foredoomed to shovel human feces for a living, and where, not just your touch, but your very shadow falling on the shadow of a higher-caste person was considered "polluting" enough that they were legally justified in killing you.
So Maya Krishna can go fuck herself with a rusty crowbar. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at January 16, 2019 07:30 AM (YLHN9) 726

'Accidentally pricked by a discarded heroin syringe? '
I suppose he could get his superpower that way. Maybe the heroin was radioactive too, but how does he discover he has this power? Maybe while holding a door open for a tranny he thought was a biological female? Posted by: freaked at January 16, 2019 07:35 AM (UdKB7) 738
Wanna get out of Jury Duty? Easy Peasy. Just say that the Prosecutor has ethics that prevent him/her from prosecuting an innocent person. Say that the defense has no converse ethic that prevents him/her from defending a guilty person. Therefore, I can believe what the prosecutor says is true and cannot believe a single word that comes out the of defense attorney.

Gillette stock has seen no punishment for its stupidity (yet). Thanks to the vast reservoir of stupidly in this country I doubt there will be anything besides a couple days of outrage and a short, small boycott.

@697 you might try serving.

As a former court clerk, I can tell you that too many otherwise good Americans do everything they can to get out of jury duty. It's really not fair to the litigants to be left with the dregs of society deliberating their case. I understand how difficult it is for the self-employed because they truly suffer financial hardship, but for the rest of us, we should just be honest and serve if chosen. Who would you rather have on a jury judging you? AOC or Ace? Posted by: IrishEi at January 16, 2019 07:46 AM (NtglE) 756
