Ron Paul: "If it's an honest rape..."

westy says...

THE CORE ISSUE IS THIS

Sure ron paul is alright on some issues but thats purely by accident

he does not use science or reason to evaluate his poisotions as a result he is masively inconsistant and ilogical on lots of issues , this is the case with all the amercan goverment candidates for the running though granted i think paul is genuin and not running for cash or coperate intrest like some of the others.

WHAT USA NEEDS IS A PRESIDENT / PARTY THAT RUNS ON THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD MAKES DESICOINS BASED ON THE CURRENT SCIENTIFIC CONSENSUS AND ACTS TO PROTECT THE WEAKEST PEOPLE IN THE COUNTRY MORE THAN THE STRONGEST ,STRIVING TO MAKE AMERICA A UNITED STATE. A place where people can live safely with good heath and resalable laws.

As it is amercas policy and laws represent and are decided by weard amalgamation of strong interest groups , large corperarations , religouse groups and private clubs of rich people. That then portends to be democracy for the people.

LOL FUCK OFF WITH THE BULLSHIT I MEAN JUSES CHRIST HOW CAN SOMEONE WRITE THAT AND NOT FEEL LIKE A PRICK ?


Nice video though "Inspired by the dazzle paintings of Edward Wadsworth" is a totally legitimate and usfull thing to say and would have done fine in explaining , giving extra information about the video. I like demo scene and animated music visuals just a shame this guy was happy to talk utter shit.

Joan Rivers: I hate all politicians

westy says...

Although allot of what they said is quite agreeable they undermine there argument about the pill and abortion being something only women can talk about when within 1 minute they are making jokes about men not getting an erection and using Viagra.

Just Imagen for a second that a man made a joke about some form of female sexual dysfunction.

I'm for jokes all around what I dislike is someone that complains when the joke/issue is on them but then makes the exact same jokes about everyone else.

Amazing Japanese "Tron" Live Stage Show.

>> ^Fletch:

@westy
The dancing was awesome, imho, and the lights and timing just made it so much more than that. As for them being people "that don't normally dance", guess again.


Well they certenly rnt very tight they look like a bunch of people that just learnt the general moves but not how to execute them sharply.



If they enjoy it then that's cool but if I was paying to see them id expect better dancing.

Encyclopedia Britannica to stop printing books

westy says...

LOL FAIL

Fact is Wikipedia is better by far for checking most things , where its inaccurate or wrong you can simply check other sources which are all linked in and out of the site ( which you should do for all information) . and because of the way Wikipedia is edited it will be much more up todate. Its also the case that Britannica has errors in it but it takes them longer to update due to there 15th century method of editing.

if britanica want to not be useless as a company then they should focus on making a on-line Encyclopaedia that's specifcaly for scientific papers and documents or focus on a very very very small subset of things but make them far more in depth and more media rich.

The way Britannica tries to act as a mature service with the guy saying "oh jah wiki is good for factoids " is a joke.

http://news.cnet.com/2100-1038_3-5997332.html

The single reason why Wikipedia PISSES on Britannica is that its so accisable you can get up an artical on ANYTHING and then from that artical you can get a good overview of the subject ( maybe with some things wrong). You can then Google very specific things ( using your overview knowlage from Wikipedia) or go on Amazon and know what to type to get very specific books on a subject.

All the non dancing stuff and technical aspects timing of the lights and the general structure and design of when the lights went on and off and the basic layout of people was really really good.

the specific dancing and raw dance moves were very pore though still the top point more than made up for it and if they are people that don't normally dance doing it then they did really well.

Frenchman's Bobsleigh fear meltdown

westy says...

>> ^shuac:

Did we expect another reaction from a Frenchman?


Its weird how French have this reputation I think it comes from the pre–Revolutionary French upper class but can not really be applied to the French as a whole.



Although its fun discrimination and the most successful discriminatory terms seem to take one element of truth and then apply it to a whole nationality/race of people.

I know the surrender aspect of WW2 comes into it but I don't think France had much choice and it would have cost them more life to not surrender , Its also well documented how well the French held back the Germans with resistance groups which is a far harder and riskier form of fighting than standard troop combat / full front engagements ( from the perspective of an individual solder anyway).

Also the French have many totally mental people that needlessly risk there lives lol I mean they originated allot of parkur , and crazy types of skying.

Still I agree its amusing to poke fun at people even if its unfounded

BTW , Brits have bad teeth , amercans are all fat , germans are all rocket scientists , asains are all amazing at math and paino playing, australians eat cangaroo all day and chase crocodiles , russians all drink vodcah 24/7.

How to Refuse Police Searches

westy says...

>> ^legacy0100:

I see both sides of the argument. Personally though, I would've let the police search the car because:
1. The cop stopped me for suspicion. The quicker I resolve his/her suspicion, the quicker I'll be on my way.
2. If I refuse, it only raises suspicion, so the cop will keep his suspicion.
Then again, I'm not a black person. So I don't know if things are a bit different.


yah the thing is The nice part of me would be like sure search but what happens then is it becomes the norm as it is now and then the law doesn't operate properly.

so its important now that people only let the police search if they have probable cause and if the police then do bullshit to go around that they need to get into trouble.

How to Refuse Police Searches

westy says...

>> ^NaMeCaF:

Heh. If you've got nothing to hide, why not just let them do their job?
Fine, if you dont want to let them search, then you can't ever complain that the cops aren't doing their jobs and getting drugs and weapons off the street.


"Heh. If you've got nothing to hide, why not just let them do their job?"

You need rules and indaviduals need protection from police abusing there power you don't want to be constantly searched all the time do you ? You realise the ultimate point of laws and the police is so a society can function not so that people can be arrested and go to jail ?

"if you dont want to let them search, then you can't ever complain that the cops aren't doing their jobs and getting drugs and weapons off the street."

Well they are not doing there jobs if they are searching someone without probably cause or picking off random people to try and meat arrest quotas. Where do you stop would you like it so that we have to show papers to cops every place you go ? You realise the importance of inosent until proven guilty ?

"you can't ever complain that the cops aren't doing their jobs and getting drugs and weapons off the street"

Yes you can there is no causal link between cops randomly searching people and reducing the amount of drugs and weapons on the street as a whole. In fact research has shown that the more aggressive policing and penalties for drugs have increased the prevalence of drugs. ( just Google it and do some research )

Socities that have reduced crimiunal sentancing for drug possession and use and instead implemented mandatory rehabilitation have seen a massive reduction in drug use and crime.

So its perfectly reasonable to refuse a cop to do something In reality they should not even be asking they are themselves exploiting the good will of people that don't know the law. A cop asking to search your car is the equivilent of a random person knocking on your front door and saying hello would you mind if I look around the inside of your house ? if you say yes then they have permission and its not an intrusion if you say no then they cannot come in without braking trespassing laws. Just because that person is waring a random uniform does not suddenly change that , they still need permission from a court or from laws that say if there is probable cause they have a default permission to search.

In the same way that if I see your house on fire and someone screaming inside its not likely I would get done for trespassing ( if that person later complained) as I have a good solid legally supported reason to trespass on that property.
