In America, we have three kinds of organized crime. Executive, Legislative, and Judicial.

Symbols are for the symbol minded

-George Carlin

This mayor is a fool for thinking his flag-staffs are important. Getting outraged over this makes the same mistake.

This whole thing is a joke. KSM is never leaving GITMO. Everyone knows that.

He was ready to plead guilty, but Loyd Austin blew that up. That was the last chance for any kind of legitimacy or process. Now it's just a prosecution that doesn't have any evidence against a defendant who cannot be released under any circumstances.

The only practical outcome is that Obama, Trump, and Biden have all learned not to take prisoners.

Jordon v. The city of New London.

A police cadet sued for discrimination after being rejected for his IQ score. The case went all the way to SCOTUS who ruled that the town did have a legitimate purpose to screen for intelligence. The twist part: his IQ score was too high.

Town of Castlerock v. Gonzales:

The details of this one require a trigger warning, but the short version is that SCOTUS reaffirmed in this case that the police don't have a duty to 1)protect the public, 2)enforce court orders, or 3) uphold the law. See also Dehaney v. Winnebago.

Police are dumb thugs who don't need you and man they expect the same.

If all Communism is Soviet, then all capitalism is The Dutch East India Company.

Racism, slavery, and settler colonialism is the origin story of capitalism. But yea, the gulags were bad and stuff.

he has a personal private army deputized as federal Marshalls by the US president, and he owns an intercontinental ballistic missile system that can fire a 10 ton tungsten rod into your country’s capitol from orbit and decapitate your entire government.

Who is on Ketamine?

Leaving aside the scifi conspiracy crap, (And I'm holding out hope you're just kidding) "Rods from God" are almost as stupid as space lasers. Every Newton of energy released by a kinetic weapon must fist be stored as potential energy, i.e. lifting 10 tons into orbit.

But you can't just do it once. You'd need several projectiles for each launch platform, and you'd need multiple platforms to credibly threaten the whole earth, and more still if you don't want to wait hours for the launch platform to orbit over your target.

Ballistic nuclear weapons are superior in every concealable way and that's why we built those instead of scifi fever-dreams and star wars.

I love it when a program says theirs a new version, would you like to download? pffffftt.

The Lord of the Rings films, do have their own flaws,

How dare you? Take it back!

I guess we got tired of hating on Skyler White and Jenny from Forrest Gump so we're spinning the wheel and it turned up MJ from two Spidermans ago.

These ghouls made us all afraid to call an ambulance; they're the real terrorists.
