Well, the spin for me is making light of his actions at a state funeral using a non-journalistic idiot nobody as a skyped commentator-Major news corps are owned by those who placed him in power-I have no respect for this president whatsoever anyway, and watching him behave like a middle-school girl is to me, about as ridiculous as letting a schizophrenic African within 5 feet of him on worldwide television.


I agree that it's a complete nothing news item, ninety percent of so-called news is non-news anyhow-It's programming gullible minds to believe everything they hear.

I did see that. It's just intimidation tactics. But I love it when world governments act petty like scorn thirteen-year-old school girls.

Also, his partner's last name is pretty fitting, too. Miranda. It'd be more fitting if this happened in the U.S., but still.

When I was in high school, girls put different things up their noses.

Absolutely, if we could target only those responsible for such atrocities as attacks on Afghan and Pakistani school girls, that would improve the world. My point is that the willfully negligent killing of children from "collateral damage" is every bit as reprehensible as the deliberate targeting of children. The Taliban and Al Qaeda deserve all the criticism in the world. But lets not add to the problem.

This is just bleeding heart propaganda. Malala Yousafzai a 14 year old school girl in Pakistan. Her school bus was stopped by the Taliban, they climbed on board and shot her in the head. They proudly declared they shot her for promoting the idea that girls be educated and she was their intended target.

Terrorists like the Taliban are the stated and intended targets of America's drone strikes. American president's(both Bush and Obama) do NOT proudly declare any children killed in their proximity as legitimate and intended targets. They declare them regrettable tragedies.

Yes, it is justified on the basis that the targets of the drone strikes intend and continue to murder civilians and in particular, students. To come out and try to use a tragedy like the recent school shooting in a crusade against American drone strikes in Pakistan is beyond pathetic, it is abhorrent. The drone strikes are actively targeting the people in Pakistan who are going into schools and shooting the students there. Seems to me it is at least some what consistent to condemn the shooting in America, while defending the drone strikes over in Pakistan that are targeting similar killers.

You know why kids didn't used to act up in school when I was younger? We got hit. Kids today have no fear of authority. They used to send us to the teacher with a paddle and if she wasn't there, we went to the one with the meter stick. Fuck it. Hit your kids. That's what is wrong with this country. No one has respect anymore.


Respect is taught by example. Fear is taught by intimidation. They're not the same thing. It's no coincidence that the generation that was taught via beatings turned out to be awful, absentee parents with a bunch of asshole kids.

A child isn't a stereo, it isn't a broken piece of machinery you need to FIX. Some people say "Well my kid was doing something I didn't like so I hit him...and he stopped doing it." REALLY!?!? Is that ALL That happened? You sure that being the sentient human that he is that striking your child didn't effect him in any way whatsoever?!?

I'm blatantly stealing this shit from Louis CK btw, sometimes comedians are the greatest bearer of truth we have.

Ah yes socity is so much better when people fear authority , rather than being motivated by intellectual persute.

If kids are acting up in school its time to put more money into social programs ,schooling and to re-evaluate how education is undertook.

HAHAHA I giggled like a school girl at the pic of a cat getting staples shot at it

Two of my favorites, high school girls and destruction.

Sounds like a high-school girl having to give an improvised speech in History class.

"Words are words?" That would be your response to a high school girl that has been called a racial epithet to her face by a hostile teammate? You're almost worse than her other teammates who insisted their chant is no big deal.

Even adults are not immune from hurtful language, so I don't see the point in pretending everyone should be a stoic about words that carry so much history, context, and baggage.

I know this makes me evil and heartless, but as a high school dropout and someone with only a 2 year CERTIFICATE from a technical college, I get giddy as a school girl when I tell people that I'm making close to 6 figures in an industry that I love and have no formal training in. It's not how much you paid for what you know, it's what you know, how easily you can know more, and how well you get along with people.
