3-0

Oregon plays tomorrow. Hopefully they beat Ok St

Harvard leads UNC by 2 with 1:15 left.

* UNC won by 2

He definitely touched it, but it had no chance of going in. Before I looked up the rule I thought it would be goaltending if any part of the ball was over the rim when it was touched. It has to have a chance.

Definitely got away with one there. Judgement call (not reviewable), not always obvious from the angle seen from the refs. Fun to watch the jackasses on tv  get all upset about it though.

The ball wasn't going in but it was over the rim when the defender touched it. Goaltending.

Looney had the rebound and was 2 feet away to tie.

I thought Welsh played well while Parker laid another egg.

Alford was awesome.

Glad Powell's career doesn't end with the bad taste of dribbling the ball off his foot.

UAB next. Bruins already beat then once this year.

Gottlieb can FO&D

It worked so well in the USSR. The bragged about 100% voter turnout.

If you don't vote then some of your property will be stolen (a fine) with the threat of violence if you don't cooperate. If you don't pay the fine then they will attempt to lock you in a cage. If you don't cooperate with your own kidnapping then they will kill you.

Authoritarians know so much about freedom.

The architect of the letter, Tom Cotton (S-AR), received $960,250 from the Emergency Committee for Israel.

He's just another warmongering neo-con but he might as well add "Likud Party" member to his titles.

An excellent speech on the genesis of the neo-con (bowel) movement is this one by Ron Paul almost 12 years ago.

It's definitely worth the time to listen.

Calling these psychopathic bastards "demonic" isn't wrong. They have no problem starting wars that result in the deaths of millions. I bet they sleep just fine.

Forget Rep/Dem party arguments. You won't find anything but skilled salespeople for debt and death in either one. I'm not buying.

When Madeleine Albright was asked if a half a million dead Iraqi children was "worth it", she said that it was. Only a psychopath completely devoid of empathy would treat 10 stadiums full of dead babies as if they were inanimate objects.

Bush the comedian? How many hundreds of thousands suffered and died so this piece of shit murderer could stand up there and tell jokes?

The current drone king?

The next psychopathic puppet that gets "voted" in by stupid people who think they actually have a choice?

"We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors … and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do."

MSM won't touch this story and youtube keeps killing the video. A 13 year old girl and her little brother committed the terrible crime of walking through a park while white.

I'm sure Al and Jessie are en route.

NSFW language (if you can understand it)

Any room left in that landfill?

I never understood pledging allegiance to a flag.

Yeah, I'm pretty uneasy about it too, especially indoctrinating small children with such nationalistic fervor who are barely old enough to keep from pissing their pants.

Most folks probably believe that the pledge of allegiance was written by Jefferson or Washington or somebody.

Nope. It was written in 1892 by a socialist Francis Bellamy.

Here's the Bellamy Salute: hmmm, oddly familiar?

The flag they are protesting gives them the right to do what they are doing.

A right can't be given.

The 1st Amendment (or the flag for that matter) doesn't grant anything. It simply enumerates what was already there.

Guys it's a piece of cloth

Yes. That reminds me of a George Carlin-ism:

"I consider them symbols, and I leave symbols to the symbol(simple)-minded."

Angels win 3-2

McBryde pitched a perfect 9th.

First of many.

Easy 1-2-3 for Santiago in the 2nd.

Glad to have baseball back.

AW is facebook for Halo fans.

Hipster?

More like an anti-hipster. I liked the article and will follow his career now.

A lot of people with ample resources choose to live simply. I won't ever have a facebook and only use a prepaid cell phone that stays in the glove compartment in case of emergency. Don't need that crap.

That dog had quite enough of that ice bucket challenge shit. I would choose a different breed.

As much as I detest Pelosi I dislike Lindsey Graham even more.

Speaking about american citizens being picked up under NDAA "authority", Graham stated:

At my place in eastern Oregon at least half of the people I know open carry a firearm at all times. I certainly do. There are the normal predators, bear and cougar, all over but now there are also large packs of huge canadian grey wolves that some fucktard govt assholes introduced into the area (reintroduced is not accurate, the indigenous species was much smaller).

With all those evil guns there must be a lot of gun crimes and accidents, right? No. Nothing at all. People are polite and friendly and certainly considerate of others' property.

Securing your weapons is the easiest thing there is.

This video came out a few days ago:

[media]

From 3:18 in the video,

"You killed me (moaning)"           (the attacker survived)
"You were gonna kill ME!"
"Yeah, you're right I was"
"Well, then I did the right thing"
"You did."

That guy should have called the "authorities" like a good little slave and waited while he and his girlfriend (and possibly other neighbors) are hacked to pieces?

"I will arrest you for... resisting arrest."

He's a bright one.

Don't talk to cops. Dull witted bullies who make a career of initiating force are very dangerous.

No. It has "federal reserve note" printed on it and also has a picture of that banker's whore Alexander Hamilton on it.

A good amount of snow at my sister's house in Gavilan Hills. Nephews got to make a snowman. Just high winds in Anaheim Hills.

Ho Hum.

Even in the rare case when a cop gets fired for crimes committed under color of law, they often get their jobs back or get rehired by another department.

Forget about them being charged or actually doing time as a result of those crimes.

Yesterday:

http://thefreethoughtproject.com/cop-fired-beating-non-violent-handcuffed-man-video-job-pay/

Cop stomps on handcuffed mans head, pulls his arms back as far as they'll go, then repeatedly elbows him in the face. Yeah, but he was drunk and impolite to the brave officer. Did you see those "good" cops who witnessed these crimes and did.... absolutely nothing?

Cop was fired by the city of Owasso.

But then with the help of the Fraternal Order of Pigs he gets his job back including back pay (probably a large amount considering the length of time and the that he was a Lt.)

The tax-tick jackboot mafia parasites will always protect their own.

Another interesting article. Thanks for posting it.

From the article:

     I collected this data myself because the U.S. Government doesn't. There is no national database dedicated to police involved shootings. Alan Maimon, in his article, "National Data on Shootings by Police Not Collected," published on November 28, 2011 in the "Las Vegas Review-Journal," wrote "The nation's leading law enforcement agency [FBI] collects vast amounts of information on crime nationwide, but missing from this clearinghouse are statistics on where, how often, and under what circumstances police use deadly force. In fact, no one anywhere comprehensively tracks the most significant act police can do in the line of duty: take a life."

     Since the government keeps statistics on just about everything, why no national stats on something this important? The answer is simple: they don't want us to know.

 

Unfortunately, he only recorded deaths from media sources and deaths by firearm.

Police are very capable of turning living, breathing human beings into corpses without using their guns. Officer Ramos demonstrated that fact very well "Now see these fists? They're going to (expletive) you up."

That is interesting.

So it illegal to use tear gas in war, but okay to subject marines to it in training? Great.

U.S. Marines are frequently exposed to tear gas and pepper spray during training. This helps familiarize Marines with the effects of the agents and teaches them how to function and perform their jobs after they have been exposed to the gas and spray. Although the U.S. Army concluded in a 1993 report that exposure to pepper spray and tear gas may lead to serious problems such as cancer and heart disease

They don't give a shit.

An excellent book that i recently read was "War is a Racket" by Major General Smedley Butler (2 time congressional medal of honer recipient)
