Here's Sanders trying hard not to sound like a senile old man when asked why he won't call Maduro a dictator:
Can you believe this shit? "There are still democratic operations taking place in that country." The fuck there are. Maduro managed to basically replace the equivalent of our Congress with another body that is made up almost entirely of people loyal to Maduro. And their supreme court, who ALSO is mostly stacked with Maduro loyalists, allowed this to happen. But this man isn't a dictator because there are still democratic operations taking place in that country. Sanders just needs to go away already. He's even more useless than Cortez, and I don't even know how that's possible.Quote:
“It’s fair to say the last election was undemocratic, but there are still democratic operations taking place in that country,” Sanders said. “What I am calling for right now is internationally supervised free elections.”
Sanders HAS defended Maduro by refusing to refer to him as a dictator, and jailing reporters for asking the wrong questions is exactly what a dictator would do. All of the signs of a dictator are right there on fully display yet Sanders refuses to call him one. Why is that? Yet here you are calling Trump a dictator even though he hasn't done anything remotely the same as Maduro has. Maybe you should just stop voting until you do at least the bare minimum of research into the candidates.Quote:

Apparently the part of the interview that upset Maduro so much was when the reporter showed him a video of children picking through garbage in a garbage truck looking for food to eat. In the video the kids do find food and eat it. Yes kids literally picking through garbage and eating the food they find to survive.
Oh yeah and the reporter who was detained and had his phone and equipment confiscated is an American citizen. People cried more because of a non-American journalist was murdered by Saudi Arabia. But...but Trump likes Saudi Arabia so we can use that to bash Trump!
Trump hates Maduro so clearly attacking Maduro for detaining an actual American citizen won't go over well with the Trump Derangement Syndrome crowd. Gotta report on this shit low key.

You can find many articles on both stories but you won't hear much on all the mainstream televised news casts including FOX News. To be fair the visual media streams that we have can only fit so much news into their time slots so we only get the most sensational stories. Same with their websites. Only so much real estate on the front pages with all the monetized click-bait ads.
I agree that the treatment of journalists in these examples and others in recent history is alarming.

Nothing official of course, but India bombing Pakistan, Pakistan bombing India, and now Pakistan shooting down Indian war planes doesn't sound like peace is going to be achieved anytime soon.Quote:

The story alleges that the President overruled concerns from intelligence officials and the White House’s General Counsel.
“Now we know why Jared Kushner still has a security clearance: Trump allegedly ordered it despite the red flags raised by the CIA and FBI and White House lawyers. Career security clearance professionals believed Jared Kushner was enough of a national security risk that he should not get a top secret clearance.
And now I have a message for our national security, defense and intelligence community: Do not share top secret information with Jared Kushner. Trust the career professionals. Do the right thing. Your loyalty is to America, not to Kushner or Trump."
I know the House Oversight Committee said they were planning on investigating how Kushner got his clearance.. It's probable that the WH is trying to get ahead of the story.
That's a rep from the house openly telling agents to ignore the president...
I meant regarding the NY Times report. Lieu's comment is nuts.Quote:

Angry arguments broke out in the West Virginia statehouse on Friday after the state Republican Party allegedly set up an anti-Muslim display in the rotunda linking the 9/11 terror attacks to a freshman congresswoman from Minnesota.
One staff member was physically injured during the morning's confrontations, and another official resigned after being accused of making anti-Muslim comments.
The display featured a picture of the World Trade Center in New York City as a fireball exploded from the one of the Twin Towers, set above a picture of Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar, who's a Muslim.
"'Never forget' - you said. . ." read a caption on the first picture. "I am the proof - you have forgotten," read the caption under the picture of Omar, who is wearing a hijab.
The display was set up as part of "WV GOP Day," which the party advertised on Facebook as a day when "Republicans Take the Rotunda."
This shit is just fucked

No idea if the fire was just too large to do anything about it by the time they got there or the logistics to fight the blaze was too complicated or what. But whenever I see videos of a building on fire it seems like they emergency services are doing their best to put the fire out or at least contain it. Not here though.

Maybe they think the fire will burn itself out, or dumping water from a plane on a thousand year old cathedral will cause even more damage. If only t4f were here with her doctorate in fire science, all I have to go on is watching Backdraft once like 30 years ago.Quote:

I've done that largely with my own equipment and monetary investment, and the occasional loan of a GPR cart from a local university.
While I was directly in the field (at least in school), I was part of a team from Bates College that excavated and catalogued a Byzantine bath house sat beneath an Ottoman glassworks in Istanbul. I was on the cataloguing end of it; I wasn't never on site. It was more or less a bottom level internship for job experience. I didn't attend Bates. I have an associate who did.
I've been involved in other projects, but just about everyone's eyes will have glazed over several paragraphs ago.
TL;DR - What I'm trying to convey is that I care deeply about the preservation of knowledge and history, and I very much do everything in my power to further that cause, on my own dime despite the fact that I am now outside of the academic field.

We found all sorts of things, which was hugely awesome in itself, but afterwards, he'd just store it all away in a locked box in his gun closet. And there they stayed and probably are still. It bothered me even at that age that nobody else got to see the things (mostly arrowheads and pottery shards). They belong in a museum.

tl;dr: A man beat his wife, man is thrown in jail on a 5,000 dollar bond, a nonprofit organization feels bailing out a domestic abuser is a good use of their money, man goes straight home and murders his wife.Quote:
A St. Louis man has been charged with murdering his wife just hours after a nonprofit organization posted his $5,000 bail in a domestic violence case also involving his wife, according to court filings.
Samuel Lee Scott, age 54, was arrested for misdemeanor domestic assault after allegedly hitting his spouse, Marcia Johnson, on April 5, and inflicting injuries to her face, ear and cheek bone. Scott was released from jail on April 9, after the St. Louis Bail Project paid his bail.
Scott arrived at Johnson’s house at 7:45 p.m. the same night. She was rushed to the hospital mere hours later with “a broken eye socket, several broken ribs, and [bruises] from head to toe,” according to the probable cause statement from the St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s Office. She died five days later. (RELATED: Man Reportedly Denied Legal Protection After Neighbor Threatened To Kill Him. He Was Murdered Two Months Later)
Scott had threatened that he “might as well finish what [he] started since [she] was going to call the police,” according to the probable cause statement. He also has several assault and drug crime convictions on his record.
The Bail Project is a national organization predicated on paying the bail of people who are awaiting trial behind bars and are unable to afford their own release. The nonprofit expanded to St. Louis in January 2018.
“No one could have predicted this tragedy,” said the group’s Executive Director, Robin Steinberg, in a statement. “It’s important to remember that had he been wealthy enough to afford his bail, or bonded out by a commercial bail bond agency, he would have been free pretrial as well. In times like this, we must come together for this family and keep sight of the need to transform the larger systems that create poverty, racism and violence, including the pretrial bail system.”
St. Louis Attorney General Kim Gardner plans to meet with the nonprofit “to review their policies and practices to help them better understand the risks to victims and witnesses when posting bail for any type of domestic violence cases or for any defendant who is a potential safety risk to an individual or to the community,” according to a statement released by her office. (RELATED: A Man Told His Girlfriend To Run As He Was Murdered. It Led To An International Manhunt That Put Her Behind Bars)
Scott is now being held on $1 million bond.
The worst part is the nonprofit then tries to downplay everything by saying had he been rich enough to afford his bail this would have happened anyways, and also let's not forget that bail is a form of racism anyways so if we weren't such a racist country that kept people behind bars for committing crimes then he would have been free to murder his wife to begin with. Makes sense.
Bail isn't racist; it's classist. Almost racist, but not quite.Quote:

-There is now an 80% tax on the top silver earners in the game. This silver will be given to the poor in Shanty Town.
I have no idea of the circumstances, but if it was a merchant who specifically went out of their way to only serve non dark elves because it was Martin Luther King Jr's birthday...that's kinda shitty. If it was just a date that was coincidental then whatever, and complaining about it is shitty.

This is my entire takeaway from that thread.Quote:

Lol that’s hilarious. I saw that thread while looking for this but didn’t remember I posted it here on the PC and didn’t remember who it was about.Quote:

She has to be a GM. It wouldn't surprise me that she lost her job. As stated by her over lnet around Aug-Sep'ish, she "switched" jobs. She most likely couldn't get along with folks at her previous job and probably lost her current job late last year, hence the absences noticed by several folks. She really only hopped on around last DR.Quote:

Do you really think she just decided to stop posting on these boards, especially with the Mueller reporting coming out? No way, the only reason she isn't posting her usual stupid crap is because she can't.
That is some scary shit to think about.Quote:

She'll do that anyway if they end up kicking her to the curb as a gmQuote:

Dreaven says, "I moved on her like a bitch. But I couldn’t get there. And she was married. Then all of a sudden I see her, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything. She’s totally changed her look."Quote:

One of those.
I'm pretty sure Itzel was a GM prior, even an SGM, so I'm not sure why she'd be redoing training as a GMA... Unless they used her name again which would be odd. Maybe that is T4F, would explain why her account on PC is relatively new, but she has definitely been playing the game a while. I know Itzel did have a graduate degree, but I think she said it was history related or something.
Look for the one pretending to not have a penis.
Not Xeraphina, that should be a dead give away as to who that is.Quote:

Once she's been around for a while and has some pull, all new hire GMs will be required to attend sensitivity training and one of the requirements for their GM application will be to write up a storyline that's centered around white privilege being a plague on Elanthia, and a white person will only get hired as GM once at least 10 minorities have been hired as GMs first.
Expect a new PC handle to show up called time4caramia any day now.
This. There have been some real pieces of shit over the years that were hired as GMs and typically ran off a bunch of players over their stupid bullshit complexes.Quote:

No, that would probably require some self awareness.
I wonder what her special entrance/exit GM messaging would be like. Probably something involving tampons falling from the sky, specified as being tampons intended only for men on their periods.
Not being on LNet makes it even more likely though. GMs are allowed to use LNet, but most completely stop using chat functionality when hired.Quote:

Here's a thread to tide you over:

5) Homeless and library won't let her post (she poops on the streets of SF)
I like my theory the best: She's somewhere in the Congo looking for men with milk filled titties so she can earn another PhD and come tell us what a bunch of morons we are for not believing her.Quote:

She's also told Androidpk that if he wants to continue to live on her couch and be her dildo test dummy, he needs to stop posting here as well.
He complied.

There is also another video where he is actually offering up 100 dollars to anyone who can give him the names and addresses of several teenagers who were doing the same thing. I'm sure he wanted that information so he could send them flowers.
A grown man harassing old women and young teenagers, truly the perfect representation of the modern Democrat party.

Democrats pretty much ignored when Hillary Clinton supporters attacked a black homeless woman because she dared to be a Trump supporter, and now the fascists are getting more and more bold by the day because Democrats won't call out this violent shit for what it is; ACTUAL fascism. But I'm sure Back will be along shortly to tell me Antifa are the good guys because they have ANTI FAscist in their name.
Stop being silent about this and stop supporting ruthless Democrats who turn a blind eye to or actually encourage Antifa violence because they happen to be the enforcer goon squad of the left.
According to the article: "Portland police have claimed that some of the milkshakes thrown by the antifa activists on Saturday contained quick-dry cement."Quote:

I'd shoot anyone who mobbed me and threw cement at me, especially when it's a bunch of black masked soy boys.Quote:

Or show up in full plate sporting swords and shields and start challenging Antifa to duels. After asking for a DS check of course.
With a real BFG 9000.
So about those illegal voters . . .
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news...-than-estimat/Quote:
A research group in New Jersey has taken a fresh look at postelection polling data and concluded that the number of noncitizens voting illegally in U.S. elections is likely far greater than previous estimates.
As many as 5.7 million noncitizens may have voted in the 2008 election, which put Barack Obama in the White House.
The research organization Just Facts, a widely cited, independent think tank led by self-described conservatives and libertarians, revealed its number-crunching in a report on national immigration.
Just Facts President James D. Agresti and his team looked at data from an extensive Harvard/YouGov study that every two years questions a sample size of tens of thousands of voters. Some acknowledge they are noncitizens and are thus ineligible to vote.
Just Facts’ conclusions confront both sides in the illegal voting debate: those who say it happens a lot and those who say the problem nonexistent.

Seriously, removing a couple million Hillary votes would have put to rest the BS about the popular vote. Also, how much would these illegal votes sway other elections? Voter ID now!
Couldn't decide on a better place to put this.
