Extension of Balmoral cruise ship

Shepppard says...

I can't buy that. It comes in, seemingly in the evening. Then gets drained in what seems to be morning, work commences on the ship itself where it's split (during daylight)

The new part of the ship is then installed during the evening again, and even IF that was just somehow clever editing, the painting alone takes at least 4 days.

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.

Man With Bloody Hands Tries To Justify Beheading of Soldier

chingalera says...

The gawking and do-nothing actions of bystanders....This shit would never happen here in the states, and especially not here in Texas-And who in the FUCK, besides an out-of-touch voyeur piece of shit, films this cunt after such an episode. Answer: A Programmed Briton

Bet if Pat Condell had been there things may have gone a bit differently....

Personally, I would have procured a piece of pipe and commenced to beating this out-of-touch thug senseless until the "constabulary" arrived. Problem is, the CO19 Force Firearms Unit would probably kill me for having done so, or place me on some undesirables list until I was finally out of the general population. Fuck all, Britains' turned to a complete shit hole and you have the absence of firearms in the hands of her citizenry and the cunts who made it so to blame.

Police perform illegal house-to-house raids in Boston

TheSofaKing says...

Getting a warrant to search a house isn't that simple. It takes more time than they had plain and simple. I can't fathom how anyone could think that police, having reasonable grounds to believe that an armed suspect who had committed several murders of innocent civilians in the previous hours is contained in a specific neighborhood, should stop, contain and commence writing search warrants for every house they want to search. Each one taking at minimum 1-2 hours to type, and additional time to be read and approved by the Judiciary. In fact, it would be reckless and irresponsible to do this and allow any other people to be killed in the meantime. This is why exigent circumstances clauses exist. It has never been seen on this scale before and that is due to the extraordinary circumstances.

To argue there shouldn't be an "exigent circumstance" clause, is also ridiculous. If police believe on reasonable grounds, that a suspect is in his house they need a warrant. If they believe he is currently destroying evidence of the crime for which he is a suspect, they do not need a warrant. But rest assured, the police MUST articulate their use of exigent circumstances every time it is used and the scrutiny from lawyers and judges will be fierce. People seem to think that it is a free pass for police to do what they want with no recourse. It is not.

. Also the suspect cant escape if you have the house or houses surrounded that you "think" (basically taking a stab in the dark guess) he could possibly be occupying. I would think it would then be easy to obtain a warrant.

How to go to the Drive-thru Without Arms

BoneRemake says...

Sorry folks, she should not be allowed to drive, What the fuck is that. Maybe she does not have a state license. But if she does then that is just fucked up and wrong.

Pretty good joke

BoneRemake says...

>> ^peter12:

Is there any kind of god out there or not? At the end it doesn't matter. For me it's very interesting how much our prejudice influence our perception. If we wonna see evil in Romney or Obama, we do. We are masters in creating our own realities, sometimes for our good, sometimes not.
A bit similar story told by David Foster Wallace in a commencement speech. This particular story lasts 2 minutes. For me the whole speech is great.


What the hell kind of example is that ?

How is this video even remotely similar to a political example. wtf buddy.

Lets all drink some Chair Tea and hold hands. Break some of these perceptions.

Pretty good joke
