    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    I'm pretty thick skinned about most things so I don't care. But it's wrong (really it's more tactless) because it is emotionally callous to the pain suffered by the victims and being done only in the interest of grabbing money. Any valid points they have to make can be made without the use of...

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    My first guess would be that it's cheaper than some IR/UV light that you'd need a special scope to see. I mean why wouldn't you want a visible pointer on your target? The entire idea is that your target is gonna be dead soon so what does it matter?

    Justice for Zimmerman

    I think Obama just misses the Tea Party calling him a American Inventor. Or else, seeing as that he's Obama and it's what he does, he's trying to decide what job he wants to have in 3 years and campaigning for it at the expense of the job he currently has. Obama wants some of that sweet sweet NAACP...

    The Newsroom S2

    Sorkin has a desperate need to prove how clever he is to the world. And he is clever. The damn thing about it is that he would be REALLY clever if he had even just a little bit of self-restraint.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    "still many years off" is something of an understatement, I think. Gene therapy on a fully differentiated organism isn't even science fiction, it's just fiction. That said a better understanding of the genetic defect which leads to cystic fibrosis has resulted in new and more effective...

    I think JJ has gone senile. And I don't mean it in a hateful way or a dismissive way. I think the man has literally gone senile and can ONLY see today through the lens of what he was involved with as a younger man. And I think he's been senile for a while. Cosby on the other hand is...

    Well, as opposed to a nearby quasar which was not part of our galaxy. It is kind of redundant, but kind of makes a distinction.

    Yeah, I think we'd all be dead in the time it took for the radiation to get to us. I forget what it was, but I remember a show with Tyson where they asked the scariest way for the earth to blow up. And Tyson mentioned something about some sort of radiation event, I forget exactly what. But...

    Don't worry about it. They took the word, but in order to take it we had to give it to them. White guys still win.

    Justice for Zimmerman

    Not really. It's changing the nature of the word. There's a very good reason that they do that. It's not just something that formed randomly in the zeitgeist. I'd think there have actually been a few scholarly studies devoted to how that agenda was pushed exactly and who exactly pushed it...

    Every real african i've known has been truly good people. There was one girl at work who used to talk about how back in Africa they all lived in houses up in the trees, ran around naked all day long, ate nothing but twinkies that the U.N. airdropped in, and at night they had to run away from...

    Just forming the pidgin shows you that she's not entirely real retarded, sir. She's probably halfway clever.

    Justice for Zimmerman

    Nah, it means that no one ever educated her and she's just formed a pidgin. Which is a failure, but not entirely her failure. A little bit her failure. Not entirely.

    I'm pretty sure that girl speaks Jive. I'm sorry, but that shit coming out of her mouth is not a language. You don't get to invent your own language that only you understand. When white people do that we call him Andy Kaufmann.

    I dunno man. I've only been in that situation once (hence I dunno really). I asked her something like so what is this, do you want me to be jealous? And she said no and I said go have fun then. It burned itself out in about 2 weeks. I dunno if she got bored or if she walked up to the edge...

    Well he's got a point. I'm racist as fuck about some things. Not about this one though. I checked my privilege. Really, I did. I'd say it's even more racist to say Travon has been trained to act that way -- which is an unspoken assumption, and maybe not entirely untrue. But that's bad...

    So I'm confused as fuck. Didn't they already introduce John Hurt? I seem to remember watching the final episode of Claire and a big "introducing John Hurt" on my screen when he turned around and the not in the name of the doctor thing. Or is that just some weird british thing that I...

    Yeah, you can view it that way. They tried pretty hard to spin Q that way, and there's a lot of support in his stories for it. I just utterly reject Q in the role of "Benevolent Dictator". It's so dumb. It's so so dumb. But yeah, that probably is what Roddenbery meant with the character...

    I thought Obama would be wise enough to quietly accept the verdict. I'd put the probability at "almost unthinkably low" too, but Jesus Christ it shouldn't even be that high.

    My question is this, and I mean it as a serious question. What if the DoJ does charge Zimmerman and force some FBI agents to arrest him? What's anybody going to do about that? Does the State of Florida have to fucking rebel in order to protect it's citizenry? American Inventors rioting in LA...

    I don't know if you can really say that though. There's a camera on every street corner in london. I'm not trying to get very deep with it, but I dunno if you can reduce it to the level of moral ideas like that, and do it fairly. America is just doing what America has always done. Stealing...
