News Anchor Quits on Air to go sell Weed

Sniper007 says...

Didn't you hear the "not that I have a choice, but..." part? She heard she was already cut from the job apparently. Though perhaps not from the career...

Sometimes it can help to burn bridges for your own sake. Maybe she knew she'd be tempted to return to the media circus, and decided she'd rather comit to something real. But I'm just being contranarian. I NEVER burn bridges myself. EVER. Even with people who've screwed me out of thousands... You are ALWAYS in a better position if people like and trust you. ALWAYS.

Drag Queen Gives Impassioned Speech About Homophobia

lantern53 says...

Oh, I didn't realize they were not looking for respect. Then why should I respect them? You have values, don't you? Do you respect everyone, regardless of their behavior?

Sorry, I can't respect people who act like circus clowns.

VoodooV said:

likewise. be straight and STFU with your "agenda". freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences.

you're a textbook example of a bigot who is so self absorbed, they don't even realize that they fail their own "advice" The bigot can "speak out" but the homosexuals have to shut up and "suck it up"

take your own advice, suck it up. Your "opinion" continues to lose ground every day until it will be a footnote in history. right along with birthers and flat earthers.

they aren't looking for respect, especially yours, they're looking for equality

you were this close to getting banned, so learn or GTFO

Drag Queen Gives Impassioned Speech About Homophobia

18-Month-Old Healthy Giraffe Publicly Killed and Dismembered

ChaosEngine says...

That's the point. The zoo gave a rat's ass.

They didn't want it to end up in a circus.
They didn't want it used in a breeding program.
They didn't want to take up valuable space that could have been used for another more genetically useful giraffe.

Yeah, it seems cold and calculating, but there are reasons behind the decision.

What I'm unclear about is why we need giraffes in zoos in the first place. They're not an endangered species, so I don't see the need for a breeding program.

How much lion meat and other stuff could a zoo buy with $680,000 from a private individual and who gives a rat's ass what the guy would have done with the beast?

18-Month-Old Healthy Giraffe Publicly Killed and Dismembered

Jinx says...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-26118748

"Joerg Jebram, who oversees the European endangered species programme for giraffes, told the AP news agency: "Zoos could design new giraffe facilities, but many don't have that option.

"A young bull could theoretically be sent to an all-female group as stud, but experts prefer a larger, more mature male for that, and Marius didn't fit that bill.

"A final option is sending the giraffe to a zoo that doesn't participate in the EAZA-led breeding programme, but that could leave the giraffe or its offspring being sold into worse circumstances, such as those of a circus or private collection."

Copenhagen Zoo had turned down offers from at least two other zoos to take Marius and an offer from a private individual who wanted to buy the giraffe for 500,000 euros ($680,000).

Bengt Holst, Copenhagen Zoo's scientific director, said it had turned down an offer from Yorkshire Wildlife Park in the UK, which is a member of EAZA, because Marius' older brother lives there and the park's space could be better used by a "genetically more valuable giraffe"."

So yah. Who knew that the guys who made caring for animals their like, profession and stuff might actually have some like, reasons. and stuff. I know, I know, it doesn't make as great a headline as "Zoo murders and mutilates innocent giraffe in front of children. also aidsrape."

Yogi said:

I still don't understand why if they were getting offers why were they soo intent on killing it? The only possible theory I can come up with is that one of the zookeepers raped the giraffe and gave it aids. So he wanted him killed and disposed of so he wouldn't go somewhere else and have the aids traced back to him. It's just a theory, but so far it's aidstight. Oops Airtight.

Obama scolds O'Reilly. Good for him.

chingalera says...

Not a fan of Fox, bill-o, telly, corporate media or their use of propaganda, shills, etc. in general OR the presidency. However, it's no great mystery that the words terror, terrorists, terrorism and all derivatives thereof are tools used to foment agendas, fear, and control. People should care when they are constantly bombarded with jargon and rhetoric of any kind that's designed to influence public opinion, win elections, or sell you some horseshit the human race can do completely without.

"Here in America, if you work hard you can get ahead."
Thank you Mr. President. How simple. Now. Who's gonna win the 10-billion-dollars in revenue-producing bread and circus diversion??

I don't understand the Benghazi criticism: Bill appeared to spend about half the interview badgering him about whether the word "terror" was used. Who cares?

The Heist that Changed History

chingalera says...

...and those programmed to be left-leaning are as distracted by bread and circuses as the worst of the clueless right-The real power comes for the left if gears change and the focus becomes financial institutions and political lackeys who fool you into thinking your power is in a vote or a cause-They hook you with bleeding-heart pet-causes and the distraction continues-

There is no stopping the insanity of a world controlled by a hi-jacked economy and you are powerless unless this becomes the focus of all activism. The FBI is untouchable today, as well as the surveillance infrastructure. All these pieces of the puzzle become powerless when you stop paying attention to the farcical slave-economy and the coming world police state.

The real success of programming shagen, comes from each generation becoming thicker, stupider, and programmed to be slaves for shit-tickets to buy more 'stuff' with.

All you need is food and love babies, and they have almost cornered the market on edibles that are not toxic for body, mind, and soul.

The shit they are capable of today makes Cointelpro look like a kindergarten spelling test.


Wholly disagree with the idea that the exposure of Coinitelpro caused the government to "reign-in" a GODDAMN thing. They simply do what all failing or exposed nefarious empires do when their shit starts to stink to everyone....They go into hiding or became instantly more sophisticated then provided a suitable distraction with money and television bullshitting.

Hardly much more sophisticated, the fucking president a year later used his own intelligence resources to break-into the Watergate hotel-A lot of sleepy motherfuckers on this sight should wake the fuck up and stop smelling their own farts long enough to realize that the 'left' and 'right' are the same fucking illusion.

Humans are easily-programmable units and universities are a perfect place to begin a new era of bullshit.

The program has never changed, and these fucks hold all cards except the mind and soul cards.

Diane Feinstein's Signature Party-Line Diatribe in True Form

chingalera says...

It's a set-up for what's going to be ubiquitous in less than 20 years A10anis, cameras on every pole (wi-fi, infrared, audio, facial recognition software) and a cop's nose up every corner of your ass at the great cost of having ended the 'great experiment' -

Feinstein is only a shill for power-brokers and a miniature version of someone whose mentality of "I, Me, Mine" let's a few people dictate the their will over of every person on the planet who is not in their small circle.

Mind you, they believe that the bulk of humanity are not suited to dictate the course of the planet but hey; The same people who have chosen to guide the course of humanity's burst off the planet would keep us rhesus monkeys in small, manageable boxes while they romp freely around the globe with the bulk of our assets and the maximum amount of power to dictate further every aspect of our lives.

The real power they will not wield is to provide for the basic needs and education of the throw-backs of humanity who would rather perpetrate violence and promulgate fear to maintain arcane sensibilities and uncivilized backward ideologies which are anti-evolutionary and savage, using anti-evolutionary and savage people to enforce what looks like order, which is in actuality, the same barbaric practice of subjugation, imprisonment, and fear.

The solution is to limit expansion of population until these ideologies are stamped-out like the insectoid disease that they are, that of a limited perspective based on arcane patterns of thought. We could do this through compassion and education but the established powers see a different solution that will protect their interests-

People like Diane Feinstein and her ilk see the rest of humanity as dogs and cattle. Unprivileged, unworthy flesh with which to extort from them their labor, their minds and souls to their utopian ends, at the cost of our unique humanity.

The same virulence that atheist's have against the western Christan diaspora, these elites have for anyone not aligned with their totalitarian ends.

That they justify their courses of action with propaganda like this, fear-induced surrender to force and control, is against all that is humane and righteous.

Bombs in subways?? Solution: No one has privacy or freedom of expression or thought beyond that which exist behind their eyes and between their ears-Greeeeeat. Your world, not mine.

Next will come thought crimes, cordoned neighborhoods, etc.

Start now by getting some of the comparatively neanderthal segments of humanity into those boxes, limit THEIR freedoms through educating them to at LEAST the level of 17th-century socialization before turning the entire world into a forced labor-camp.

Bread and circuses only work for so long before the emperor's clothes are set alight by those less inclined to hear shit as well as being forced to eat it.

Anarchy would solve some of the discord in civilized countries.

Fucking China-Get those insects to stop cranking-out useless consumption items at an exponentially toxic pace as well-Their version of the world makes Orwell's look like a clam bake. How? Stop using it. Create artisans and craftsman again and develop in every human an appreciation for THAT WHICH LASTS, rather than I WANT NOW, FIRST!

Americans, Europeans drunk on technology, disposable clothing, instant gratification and entertainment are a herd of disposable mental midgets to the Diane Feinsteins of the world.

Sick dance we're learning....I just hope we can stand the dervish without blacking-out.

America Has A Secret Super Weapon

chingalera says...

@bcglorf-It's been going-on in the United States for over 75 years, it's by design and insidious. You create a herd of dutiful putties who will jump like performing circus dogs into any barrel of shit you dish 'em.
Create entire generations of mentally incapacitated fools drunk on bread and ballgames, and the worlds' THEIR oyster.....covered in your sweat, blood, tears, and spinal fluid.

Out of Sight, Out of Mind - The Story of Sam Mendez

kceaton1 says...

Such a sad tale of complete and utter failure at every level of state for Colorado. Prosecutors tried to give the jury anything, that could provide and also be used against this, once, young and sane man to convict anyone (as it sounds) that fell into their gunsights.

Hardly any effort went into his defense (mostly because either the judge or prosecution allowed very little to be fought against--even the outright ridiculous claims OR claims that could be outright REFUTED...) as the state had found it's "poster boy"...

What a sick joke. It is so disheartening to know this is real and certainly not the worst to have happened (or happening) in this country...and across this world. To create mental illness in someone and then when said mental illness "bites back" and they use it for "whatever evidence" they need to keep him in solitary (without any treatment, even though multiple doctors have told the state he desperately needs it) and worse they use the illness to "strengthen" their age old case with evidence that is completely inadmissible.

What a sad story... "Out of Sight, Out of Mind", is a perfect title for this circus act.

Jon Stewart's 19 Tough Questions for Libertarians!

enoch says...

@blankfist

i would be totally on board with a massive re-structuring of the corporate charter.

might i suggest we return the clause "for the good of the people"?
and force responsibility financial and otherwise when a corporation causes damage to either the enviroment or society at large.

adam smith said"only with absolute liberty can a free market truly exist".
we do not have absolute liberty nor a free market.
we have a protectionist government which serves the needs of the corporate elite.
and those needs simply translate to :less competition...for them.

which is the point i think you were trying to make and on that note i agree.
but i think the leviathan is a far larger beast and will not be dismissed so easily.

power begets power and seeks only to retain its power.

we have to get money out of politics.
money should never equal free speech,yet sadly that is where we find ourselves to day.

corporations spend billions towards influencing legislation favorable to their bottom line.i read somewhere that for every dollar spent they receive 22,000 from the beneficial legislation.

so not only is out government bought and paid for...they are more trashy than the 10 dollar crack whore.

the only thing that has ever worked to change things...ever.
is the people.
social movements.
we need to starve the beast.

in my opinion the very first step to even BEGIN to make that move forward is we need to fix our fourth estate,or at the very least ridicule and dismiss the fucking circus that we know as corporate media news.
its not news.
its propaganda.

i really think that most people would agree to an extent on what your saying blankie but the reality does not reflect the dream and may be why some people dismiss the notion as silly.

@JiggaJonson brought up a good point and is actually a great way to start to starve the beast.
civil disobedience in the form of refusal to participate in the system.
dont file your taxes.
dont buy car insurance or register your vehicle.
cut up your credit cards and dont pay them.
buy local,from family owned establishments (so your money stays local).

but in my experience most americans do not like being uncomfortable nor afraid and doing these things will bring both to your doorstep.

i always said the american revolution will commence the moment they take away their cable tv.
