What the gently caress is this? This is an ostensibly serious letter sent by an ostensibly serious organisation? This reads like a 12 year old's angry screed on livejournal. This is seriously how organisations representing loving law enforcement present themselves? Like I know that American cops are irredeemable trash but you'd think they'd at least try and present a veneer of respectability. They're literally throwing a childish tantrum because someone dared to indirectly criticise their habit of murdering unarmed black people, and actually getting their way with nobody asking "uh is it perhaps Not Good that organisations representing the police are damning people to hell and calling them miserable parasites?" gently caress.  Latuff's cartoons are great when they're focused on inequality and oppression, but when he does poo poo like "OH NO OBAMA'S TRYING TO END THE CUBAN REVOLUTION BY DOING THE THING I WANTED HIM TO DO" it's pretty lol.

I thought maybe Latuff was gonna turn on him as a counter-revolutionary American lapdog, his pockets bulging with greenbacks and his arms attached to strings held by a sinister Uncle Sam, the iconic handshake taking place on top of the grave of dear leader Fidel whose ghost looks on sadly and sheds a single tear.

Just convince them that you know they're guilty, never give them a chance to claim innocence, berate them for as long as it takes until they confess, and start a successful consulting business teaching LEOs to do it too. Better ten innocent men go to prison than one guilty one go free. Wait, false confessions mean that guilty parties do stay free?

I'm convinced the person writing this didn't actual see the cartoon. There are not racists slurs or anything like that anywhere in the cartoon, nor are there any advertisements. also, real mature telling the newspaper to go bankrupt and that they'll go to hell.

Well poo poo, black friday makes hostages of us all. NoEyedSquareGuy posted:I know that newspaper editors aren't supposed to respond to letters like this telling the sender to gently caress themselves, but surely there can be exceptions. The newspaper responded by apologizing. "If we had known the cartoon would offend anyone we wouldn't have printed it," words to that effect. I wrote a letter to the editor supporting Britt and calling the cops out for being disgusting, hopefully they run it since I mention being a former Bensalem resident.

Does the ending of the embargo mean American Soda will start to taste a little less like crap? Or have corn subsidies pretty much eclipsed the idea of going back to using good quality cane sugar? Why yes, that is my first thought on the matter.

I'm pretty sure Brazil eclipses Cuba in sugarcane production, and always has, so the embargo probably has little to do with it.

Based on vague reminiscences of something I read, it actually did work on the Japanese. I won't testify to this being true, but the idea was that the Japanese were never taught how to resist interrogation, since it was assumed no honorable Japanese soldier would ever allow himself to be caught. So, on the occasions they were captured alive, they spilled their guts pretty quickly, without need for aggressive tactics.

majormonotone posted:Obama/Castro/SSJ Goku threesome  You gotta get the power levels/shiny golden hair right. (I remain rather amused that Latuff is familiar enough with DBZ to draw SSJ3 Goku so recognizably.)In less fun news: Gary Varvel made a surprisingly, legitimately good cartoon. Seriously, he didn't try to make any sort of point and he did an amazingly respectful caricature while still leaving the couple recognizably Muslim. Good for you Gary.

Hey Bok you stupid gently caress, Tesla is a luxury brand, anybody who can afford one right now doesn't need to worry about gas prices. Also corn syrup vs. cane sugar is the stupidest thing and you're basically in the same league as gluten "sensitivity" (as opposed to legit celiac/allergy stuff) dorks if you think it matters, hth.
