  1. Great win. Get outhit 8 to 1 and still take the game.
  2. Same shit. What is the fascination with this rag arm?
  3. Yeah Doc, Tropeano got hosed on the pitch right before the double. 5 shutout innings. Love the depth.
  4. Joyce only slugged .383 last season but I thought he'd at least bring some OBP.
  5. Butler is slow as hell. I thought we had that market cornered.
  6. Huge escape by smith. Freese going into the slide for no reason is annoying.
  7. Threatening violence is exactly what governments do. Do people pay their "taxes" because they want to? If they didn't pay would governments just say "well, it's okay, we'll get you next time"? People pay because it is made clear to them that the alternative is much worse. The government threatens to steal even more of their property or throw the person in a cage if they don't. It's called coercion. It's really effective. Do any of the thousands of new "laws" dreamed up every year not have a threat attached to them? Governments threaten violence to get what they want.
  8. She just advocated for the banning of a book. "These documents are not, in my view, protected by the First Amendment and should be removed from the Internet." She's making a pretty serious threat of violence here, isn't she? She isn't asking for people to voluntarily turn in their copies of the book or delete the copies from their computer or server. "Should be removed" is a clear threat. Is she making an idle threat? Sure, she would never get away with it. That doesn't mean that threats against fundamental rights shouldn't be taken seriously and opposed. She made herself clear. If she thought she could get away with it she would indeed try to take this book away from people by force. There are mountains of historical precedent for the banning of books, in the US (by localities) and around the world. It isn't "fantasy".
  9. Undefeated season Kentucky fans? "All you dreams?... Dashed. Hopes down the fu*king drain" 11>8
  10. 'Mr. and Mrs. America, Turn Those Guns Books In' The book in question is nearly worthless, but come and try to take it, bitch.
