No, it was the LF thread about that Christian bear story. Or the "Welcome to the Republican Party!" Thread. Unless I'm misremembering and those are the same thing.

It was a CD mock thread that tried to evaluate Die Hard (and then other films) as a criticism of capitalism/pro communism piece. It was hilarious, particularly when some Cinema Discusso people joined in.

Jesus, that's a hell of a burn. Even if it isn't that witty (though it is) it also goes right to the heart of what W is really sensitive about wrt criticism of his misrule. Good.

http://www.komonews.com/news/local/Police-Teens-tote-fake-guns-at-Bremerton-park-284425381.html

Let us play - white kids or black kids?

quote:

BREMERTON, Wash. -- Things got scary in a hurry for some people at a Bremerton park last month.

A 911 call came in to the Bremerton Police Department that said there were kids in the park running around with guns.

Officers rushed to Evergreen Park for what sounded like a terrifying threat. Sgt. Randy Plumb said the caller saw "an individual running through the park armed with a handgun, waving it around maybe pointing it at an individual."

When police first arrived at the park, it appeared "one had a handgun the other had what appeared to be an AR-15 assault rifle," said Sgt. Plumb, who added the guns looked "very real."

Thankfully, they ended up being air and toy guns. After looking at a photo of the toys, store owner Cynthia Jeffries said she thought they looked real.

"I would have called it in," she said.

Her general store is across the street from the park. There is no doubt in her mind things could have gone horribly wrong if police or an armed civilian thought the guns were real and they felt threatened.

"We have quite a few people in the neighborhood who do open carry," she said.

A little more than a week ago a Cleveland Police officer fatally shot a 12-year-old boy who was holding a BB gun. The boy was pointing it at people in a park and the officer thought it was real.

"There's just too many of these instances where, you know, police officers shoot an individual with these guns that appear to be so real," said Plumb.

The Bremerton teens were not charged with anything, but police took a picture of the toy guns and put it out on social media to remind people to use common sense and not do what the teens did.


For reference - Bremerton is a town that is a ferry ride away from Seattle where the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard lives. It's currently experiencing some white flight but mostly is white and has meth problems, etc.

I'd put money on white kids myself. Mostly because the Bremerton cops are massive pricks and would have shot a minority given the chance.

I'm OK with people getting bitchy about Obama's completely normal teenage kids if we still get to make fun of the extremely creepy kids of conservative politicans, like Romney's and Santorum's
The Santorum kids changed over the years from that first iconic photo. Bored teenage girl turned into happy clapping "I now know how to act in front of cameras" young woman, deer in headlights boy turned into bored teenage boy, and crying girl turned into deer in headlights girl. What I find interesting is most pictures leave out Santorum's older son, who is/was in the military. He has a thousand yard stare that screams "don't bother me, I've seen some poo poo."

I heard the Car Talk guys joking about Bush vomiting on the Japanese Prime Minister!

That's because SiriusXM is running decades old Car Talk shows and I still listen because Tom (RIP) and Ray are still a hoot, and I have learned a lot about carburetors in the last month.
