Sax guy provides riot police with suitable background music

I was hoping for Yakety Sax (aka the Benny Hill theme)

I imagine the Star Wars imperial march is what these guys hear in their heads already. Better to take them down a peg.

Playstation 4 vs X Box 1 - (A Dose Of Buckley.....NSFW)

It's not that he's wrong about anything, but do 12 year old console trolls really need to be taken down a peg? I'm not sure they have a peg to begin with. Yes, young gamers are prone to strangely belligerent brand loyalty, but kids say a lot of irritating crap if you listen to them.

Police perform illegal house-to-house raids in Boston

newtboy says...

No, but absence of evidence is absence of evidence. Do I need more periods for that to make sense? Reports/leads. are. not. factual. evidence.
Are you suggesting that they should have had the right to invade any home or neighborhood that a tipster mentioned to them, because you seem to be. And you call me a nutjob? Hmmm.
To address your previous rant...
Because one person may have posed a danger to some does not suspend the rule of law, which requires EVIDENCE, not a guess, that there is actually 'imminent danger' of harm or destruction of evidence or escape...they could not have had that for random searches in Boston, if there were any.
I agree, your ignorance is embarrassing. Searching based on hunch or guess is unreasonable. Simple enough?
It's funny that you have apparently pegged me into some hole you dislike, because you know far less about me that we know about the bombers activities in the hour being discussed and have already made numerous quick false assumptions, but that's your prerogative.
I understand the fourth amendment, it has been widely interpreted by many. You seem to believe that anyone with a different interpretation from yours must be a brain dead idiot that needs a spanking. I simply feel that anyone that wants to freely give up the rights that many paid dearly to secure should instead move to somewhere that already governs the way they would like. They do exist, and I meant it about Australia, it seems great but it's not the USA.
edit: please don't take that as 'if you don't like it then get out!', it is a reasonable idea for those unhappy with the way the current system is working out, especially given the difficulty of changing it.
I take your argument to the logical conclusion, which is that if you think dangerous criminals in the area makes random searches legal, then you think the police may enter your home at any time, you have said nothing to dispute that, just called it dumb and BS. If one murderer is dangerous and worthy or house to house search, is another somehow not? Please explain and cite where the law draws the line.
Please attempt to make a rational argument and not a third grade name calling session. I made no flights from logic that I can see and freely stated I was commenting based on the 'facts' in the description, and did not resort to name calling.

Oh, for fuck's sake...

Just. Because. The. Suspects. Didn't. Return. To. Boston. Does. Not. Mean. That. The. Police. Had. No. Evidence/reports/leads. That. They. Had. Returned. To. Boston.

I read somewhere (and it could be bullshit) they were fielding 300 tips a minute at one point. Bullshit or not, following up leads, even false leads, is part of police work. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Police perform illegal house-to-house raids in Boston

I dont think you can say people were in imminent danger in any one house of the many they searched as they had no idea where he was. You cant say someones in immediate danger when you have no idea if they actually are. If they had him pegged to a few houses due to some type of evidence then maybe those people might be considered in imminent danger, maybe. 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.

If this was normal ok procedure then every day blocks would be sealed off and houses searched warantlessly without consent due to violent or dangerous criminals(and what criminals aren't ) having disappeared into a residential areas where they can be considered an immediate danger to the residents of that community. Of course that doesn't happen.

As tough as I'm sure it is to go through, and as much as I'd hate it to happen to me (especially with two tiny children in the house), it is legally permissible and these were definitely exigent circumstances. From WikiPedia (where else?):

No way. It's definitely J-Peg and P-N-G. However, it could just be a difference of accents that results in different pronunciation. (Though I still can't see why J would be pronounced Gay!)

I've heard people pronounce URL as "Earl" or "Yural." I always say U-R-L.

It's fun how the lack of verbal communication can lead to so many conflicting interpretations of the written word. This was much rarer when it was just books and newspapers.

Reminds me of someone (Teresa Strasser) who did a lot of reading when young but not much talking. In a classroom discussion she confused everyone by saying something was "in-NAWV-uh-tiv" because that's how she'd always read "innovative" in her head.

Welcome to America (Cop vs German Tourist)

chingalera says...

So yer a vertean cop? How would you rate this guy on the asshole scale(1 being mild, 10 being complete dick)?

On the Douchebag meter, where does his needle peg?

The guys' a dick, AND a cop, and most cops are dicks-It's the way things ARE!

lantern53 said:

Who the hell said I would do something like that? You really take some assumptions, don't you?

I didn't say what the cop did was proper. I'm saying he did what he did because he didn't want to take the time to arrest this tourist. The cop probably has also seen his share of auto accidents involving stupid speeders.
Nevertheless, he should have just arrested the guy instead of being foul.

Physicist Sean Carroll refutes supernatural beliefs

shinyblurry says...

There aren't really that many non-believers, actually. Worldwide belief in God is usually pegged at 85 to 90 percent. A gallup poll from last year places belief in God in America at 92 percent:

http://www.gallup.com/poll/147887/americans-continue-believe-god.aspx

But I am not going to go into idealism. Let's say some of our experience of God is in natural terms, in that we experience Him through our senses (I will leave out the spiritual aspect). Well, if someone comes up to you and says "Thus sayeth the Lord..lightning will strike just west of your house at 12:33 pm" and then it happens, are you going to conclude coincidence, or are you going to conclude God supernaturally influenced reality? That's a way you can use empiricism to deduce a supernatural reality. This sort of thing happens all the time to people who know God. He makes impossible things happen in their lives and sometimes even lets them know before hand.

The central question of philosophy is this: what is truth?

Jesus says He is the truth:

John 14:6

Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

If that's true, and you are honestly searching for the truth, you will find Jesus.

hatsix said:

Oh, the irony, a christian lecturing someone about Circular Reasoning.

Tell me again how you know your God is the "True God"?

Oh, the Bible says? And how do you know the Bible is God's Word?

Oh, the Bible says?

An awfully big problem, but thankfully Christians have a solution... they know that God exists because they've.... wait for it... EXPERIENCED him. They've sensed him in their life. Hmm... Sounds like they're relying on Empiricism themselves without even realizing it.

Unless you want to go on towards Idealism.... but how could there be so many non-believers if we're all born with so much innate knowledge of everything.

There's no application of Philosophy that will lead you towards being a christian... Also nothing that will prove the absence of God, either. Just like in hard science, whether or not there is a God is purely in the realm of Theology.

What To Do While Waiting For Police

chingalera says...

I take offense at the assumptions you made here and on several other posts, assumptions you seem fine with that help to define your presence online-I come off as a terse, bitter asshole on certain offerings here often due to the slanted banter but mostly when my smug meter pegs the red too many times after reading smegma like,

"So they need skills like this to walk around and shoot up rapists?

"Knowing how to walk around and shoot stationary targets is not that useful in real world situation...unless you are walking through a school shooting up kids laying on the ground".

"you gun crazies"

"these delusional gun crazies"

"Did you get those stats from NRA's PR department?"

"Ok, i'll bite your troll bain"

Your comments on threads that take offense at the direction of Congress on this issue sound EXACTLY like the creature Feinstein as she clucks and embarrasses herself daily in these hearings regarding another ineffectual attempt to standardize worldwide, the availability of boomsticks of any kind to citizens anywhere-I have been watching the slow train-wreck of U.S. politics for 40 years with the help of the massive disinformation/indoctrination mechanism of the media machine.....it's offensive, as are those living in an insular and idyllic world of fantasy and delusion, not unlike yours.

Especially detest the smug, holier-than-thou bullshit tone (as I have stated hundreds of times before when someone crawled-up my ass on this site), and ESPECIALLY on issues of police vs. citizenry, firearms, and left vs. right (two meaningless labels that have nothing to do with the mechanism of how the game really works).

I am happy to remain a voice crying in the wilderness here but I won't take asshole or douchebag lying down- ...I am a very gracious, and reasonable person otherwise-

I promoted this video for Buck, a recent addition to the users here, because the issue is fundamentally connected to the reason the U.S. is still here and get's swept aside in favor of kitty-cats, Russian car wrecks, and people fucking themselves up....

Oh, and because I like the cut of Buck's jib-I regard ANY new user who actually embeds videos here, votes and comments who offers an alternative to the regular fare here a breath of fresh, fucking air-

You appear to me to be another person deluded by their own world view enough to use labels, stereotype (which you have obviously done with myself) cry racism, or employ a similar tactic when faced with common sense or reason colliding with your ideals. It's sophomoric and offensive and unimpressive.

Don't sweat it-If You creep-through my past comments I'm sure you'll find many examples of my own foot-in-mouth-Peace

mxxcon said:

Further proof of how delusional you gun crazies are. You have no fucking idea on my position on domestic surveillance, warrant-less wiretaps or redefinition of US citizens as terrorists.
As a matter of fact, I guarantee you 1000% that I actually proactively do more to protect YOUR civil liberties against those things than you do by waving your penis-compensator around!

As for "mein freund", wtf is that supposed to mean? Is that a subtle hint at nazis? If so then you are an even bigger fucking idiot than I realized.

But whatever, talking here is obviously pointless. Ignorance is bliss.
