Shack it up, baby! Twist and shack!

tee hee.

Except if a foundation will tilt that floating house will float off it and probably cause more damage than shacking would.

I think she's confusing 'house' with 'shack'

LOVE SHACK BABY!

I think what I find especialy repulsive about such places is that they have no humility. Its a giant phallus of a city, where wealth and power is flaunted as if it were something sacred. There is no shame in Dubai.
I've only been to San Antonio in the States. It wasn't too bad tbh, I certainly expected much worse from Texas. The US has its problems, but its far from the worst. I felt more discomfort in Mexico driving out of gated community into basically a slum 15 minutes down the road, or spending a month in Mexico City after a couple of Months in the south close to Guatemala.


I told a friend about driving through Texas and looking over across the border at little shack villages and such. He told me that they build those there on purpose to make us feel sorry for them. Yeah...yeah I know.

Bad quality...best skits ever! *promote

And I am imprisoned in that shack...

One thing I always wondered - if I was a homeless person why would I gravitate to a city? Wouldn't it be easier to find somewhere rural to shack up/sleep? It's not a rip on these guys, I find the introduction of this law genuinely disturbing, but I wonder what keeps them sleeping on a concrete sidewalk for years when surely there would be better alternatives.

Maybe it's because there's more public space in the cities, or there is easier access to some items they really want, or they depend on the services of these aid workers?

I'd say that's the problem right there. The black and white thinking of someone much more on the conservative end of things than I think you are admitting to.

I've never said I wasn't conservative. I've said many times that I'm quite fiscally conservative, socially liberal, libertarian leaning, and a constitutional constructionist. But I certainly do not ascribe to the kind of moral relativism where everyting is 'grey' and there is no right or wrong. If that makes me 'conservative' then so be it.

However, you didn't wait for them before opining.

This woman's story hit almost 2 weeks ago. I waited over a week before saying a peep, but when I did hear about it I tried to find out more data.

I think the main point was -- why do you need any facts at all about this woman?

Because in order to properly judge F&F you need to know the facts. F&F is guilty of nothing except judging the gal based on what data they had at the time. At the time, the reports were "this woman left her family and is shacking up with some OWS dude". They jumped the gun because they didn't have "the facts" and you are saying "why do we need any facts?" Uh - we need the fact so we can form a proper conclusion about her. Dur. If her family is cool with what she did - more power to her. If they aren't - then she is - in fact - a slimeball.

And you have soooo many opinions about her lack of character based on a few minutes of video.

If you read carefully, you'll note I've never stated my opinion about HER. I've always said, "if". If she did this... If her husband was... If. I have stated my opinions about what she did "IF". There's a difference.

Corporate media, and their well paid "reporters" should be shot.

Mother away from her kids for more than five minutes, and probably shacking up with fellow protestors! Shame shame, everybody knows your name!
Meanwhile the wealthy hire people to look after their kids, and who knows how much time they actually spend with them.


You're too kind. I just can't get over how they've zeroed in on this one person and gotten super petty about it. And as Olbermann mentions in another video, the usual right wing suspects are trying a number of discrediting tactics, all lame of course.
