it almost certainly will be, but instead of doing this, i'll become even more numb to politics than i already am

Also fairly recently a palestinian refugee tried to attack people with a cleaver and got shot to death by the NYPD
i only heard about that yesterday. i guess no one really bothered to make a big deal about it even though a common crime like this gets ramped up to terrorism solely by virtue of the attacker's religion

 i love the irony of muslims being called "lone wolf terrorists," a term coined by white nationalists in the '90s

also the word filter that changes h t h to "I'm a huge prick" is A+

...the gently caress does that mean
de blasio said it wasn't terrorism, so cuomo stressed that it was. he did this because he's a spiteful rear end in a top hat whose first priority is making the mayor look bad

side note: it's amazing how quickly media outlets the world over fell in line when ISIS said "please, call us The Islamic State now." generally if a group of extraordinarily lovely people want to be called something, it's your duty to call them something else

Making DeBlasio look bad is like making water look wet.
exactly, which makes cuomo's obsession even more baffling

Islamic State is the best choice. And yuuuup on the "oh we don't want to give them legitimacy part."
To me it's more like a "we shouldn't call them that because both the group and right-wing people get to point at the name and say 'Look! Islamic is right there in the name!'" Yeah, there's more nuance involved with that name, but both groups of people deal with the world in completely black and white terms.

Also a bomb was neutralized on 27th St. because of a couple of hobos. They ruined the bomb and walked off with the suitcase it was hiding inside.

 the Belt Parkway is one of the worst highways in the state so it's not surprising that they might have gotten busted there

cool, thoughts and prayers accomplish a lot, it's nice to see something is finally being done about this mess.
looks like someone didn't click the link. it was a joke made a year ago about how the Belt Parkway is the worst road in the city for vehicle-on-vehicle incidents
