Actual Footage of Pastor Beaten & Tazed By Border Patrol

dag says...

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Do we need a "fascist pigs" channel? I've been through many of these "inland" border patrol stops in Arizona and Mexico and they always give me the chills.

"Your papers please? Do you have anyone of Mexican heritage traveling with you?"

Fox News Declares War on Canada

nomino says...

Check out this amazing comment I found on Reddit about this video

"See, this is why Fox News can't get a broadcast license in Canada.

I might also mention

1. War of 1812: Lit the White House on fire; American's commemorate this in their National Anthem

2. Vimy Ridge: First time Canadian Troops under Canadian command; advanced so fast troops were ordered to halt because supplies couldn't keep up. When asked how we took the untakeable position to quickly, Canadians respond with "No one told us it was impossible to do"

3. Passchedaele: Canadian troops inspire the original use of the term "Storm Troopers"

4. Dieppe: Canadian troops undertake practice invasion of the coast of France. Terrible loss of Canadian life. Lessons learned directly led to the successes at Normandy.

5. D-Day: Despite lessons learned from Dieppe, no beach head other than Juno - the Canadian Beach - was successful. American pilots actually bombed Canadian troops stating "no way are they that far inland; we're still stuck on the beaches!"

I'd go on but I'm just too furious with this lack of respect for my country. I will only say that Canada is in Afghanistan cleaning up America's mess, operating in the most dangerous part of the entire country. Maybe the reason Fox can't remember Canadians are in Afghanistan is that THEY WERE DOING SO BADLY THERE THEY HAD TO START ANOTHER WAR WITH IRAQ TO DRAW PEOPLE'S ATTENTION AWAY?!?

Fox News, I say to you with with deep sincerity: Go Fuck Yourself."

wow, couldn't've said it better

Technically Central America does not include any part of Mexico


My understanding is that it is customary to use either the Isthmus of Tehuantepec or the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt is the northerly inland border of north/central America, which, either way, makes a good chunk of Mexico part of central. While Mexico is not considered a "Central American country" since most of it is in North America, everyone I know who lives or grow up in Mexico is of the very clear impression that their country is in both north and central. While I was living in Mexico I flipped through some of the standard elementary curricula, and was surprised that they used the Volcanic Belt as the geographic border, which actually puts DF pretty close to the line.

Bill Maher -- Terrorism Versus Liberty -- Sept. 19, 2008

rougy says...

I think she said we have more hurricaines due to "warming ocean temperatures" not "global warming."

And there seems to be some support for that claim:

...2005 was the most active hurricane season on record, and Atlantic water temperatures were the warmest, about 1.4 degrees above normal. That hurricane season set a new high with 28 storms and 13 hurricanes. Seven of the hurricanes were major storms.

In 1971, when the water temperatures were the coolest, there were 13 storms and six hurricanes, including one major one.

The index of overall hurricane activity was more than twice as high in 2005 as it was in 1971.

The scientists who have linked global warming to stronger storms said the study makes sense, and is, if anything, just repeating and refining what they have already said.


USAToday.com

Hurricanes, typhoons, and cyclones have always bedeviled coasts, but global warming may be making matters worse. Sea level is rising and will continue to rise as oceans warm and glaciers melt. Rising sea level means higher storm surges, even from relatively minor storms, which increases coastal flooding and subsequent storm damage along coasts. In addition, the associated heavy rains can extend hundreds of miles inland, further increasing the risk of flooding.

Prepare for any storm, as one would prepare for a meal:
When, how, and what you want of it, with what you have on have to deal with anything whatsoever, with everything as it always is, according to your level of skill and abilty, effort and interest of such things......

And if yer poor, simply butt-stupid, or prone to be overly agitated by unnecessary drama, or you have some aversion to the floodgates or flood waters a givin' way or 'risin' respectively, move inland, and quit yer spewing and frettin'!!!! There's plenty of room and means of livelihood...get creative.....

10 degrees warmer in the Jurassic? (Blog Entry by jwray)

swampgirl says...

>> ^jwray:
Even if all this is true it doesn't acquit CO2 emissions from possibly hastening the return to the next 22C plateau (during which there would be no polar ice caps). Residents of low-lying coastal areas need to move inland before that happens but it may be hundreds or thousands of years.



So I shouldn't go for that downtown Charleston property I've always dreamed about retiring in eh?

Insane footage of 2004 tsunami wave hitting the shore

MINK says...

if you are in the ocean, the wave is gonna push you up and down a bit. that's all, as far as i know. it's not going to push you much towards shore, you're only little, there's not much to push on, and the wave won't be very high until it gets close to land. so it's pushing up, not shoreward. water isn't actually moving towards the shore, it's just rising and falling. of course when it gets to land it runs out of space and rises up and overtakes itself and produces turbulence underneath and starts to fall/roll over, pushing everything inland. getting hit in the ankles by a small wave on a previously dry street is very different to bobbing up and down on a huge wave out at sea.

and yes, this is scary. especially with the translation of the last line.

i cant see why you guys dont understand why they react so late....5000 kilometers away from home and work, chilling on a sunny beach....who the hell would expect something like that, a wave reaching far inland. you guys never heard of a tsunami before this one came along....it easy to look at the footage now that we know what happened and say ´hey, they are slow´....

Kosovo's independence (Worldaffairs Talk Post)

choggie says...

How to combat such atrocious behavior???? Ethnically homogeneous communities should be left the fuck alone, Muslims and all their petty points of contention with their brethren need to have enemas forced upin them until they calm the fuck down, and the countries who use and abuse the most black gold, need to slow their long draws off the nipple to a creep, and perhaps become heroic in a new quest, to eradicate sick, dumb motherfuckers from the planet.....
Like Maaaackmoood Handjob, LIKE Kim Dung Ill......Ethnic tension should be punishable by water-boarding (pulling folks behind fast-boats on a sheet of plywood)

Me??? Moving inland, growing my own food, and hoarding ammunition and gold.....
AND, driving paid for shit, as little as possible. Fuck all if some president can do jack nor shit to change anything-we will probably end up embroiled once again in some clash in the Balkans before it's all said and done, hell, WW1 started with some "damn fool thing" there.......and Thank fucking God, Otto Von Bizzy was right when he mused.."
"There is a Providence that protects idiots, drunkards, children and the United States of America. "

oh, and what about the serbs?...all the gypsies, etc-they are getting fucked again as well. Not that the serbs are w/o their "atrocities"....but hey, thank Bill Clinton, and the Nato Goonsquads for playing on human weakness......Politics are for people who have their head shoved so far up their ass they can only see from that limited perspective......

Vermont has no coast. It's inland.


Wow. I am retarded. Especially considering that I'm from Maine. I've been so sick lately that I didn't even catch myself. It was sold in VT but more than likely caught of the coast of NH, MA, or ME. I AM SO WE TODD DID.
