These are the same people who don't get flu shots because it made them* feel "icky" once. * it made someone ELSE feel "icky" and they've purloined the story as a self-justification.

Soylent Pudding posted:I vaguely remember a story about some Canadian burger chain that tried to expand into the US with a promotional third pounder the same price as a McDonalds quarter pounder. And Americans got pissed at the company for ripping them off because three is less than four. McDonald's actually had "Angus Third Pounders" somewhat recently and they didn't last. Pretty sure it was the price that killed them off and not 'Murkans not bein' so good with the math. Duzzy Funlop posted:I mean, lol and all, but Boehner can still get hosed.

Also wasn't there a video where someone hosed up by entering the password for Q's trips or whatever a couple years back? Giving Bannon a seat on the NSC was probably the worst loving self-own security breach of all time. I envisioned him sitting in archives gobbling up dossiers like DeVito's Penguin looking up first-borns to kidnap in Batman Returns.

This is a metastasis of the old "the flu shot makes you sick/gives you the flu" bullshit. Every time I've gotten into this argument with anyone, pre-COVID, that is, they always front as if it was *them* who "got really sick once," but if/when you press, it always becomes "a friend of a friend of a friend" or some horseshit like that. There's also a healthy amount of "them doctors think they're so smart," too. But you also can't discount the worst anti-vax motivation, which is "people give me attention when I say I'm not getting the vaccine. If I get the vaccine people will stop trying to convince me to get it."

facialimpediment posted:It gets better - the internet tracked down his desk. There's so much to digest there. First, I'd guess the main reason he's been so quiet is that it gave him time to get four years' worth of bronzing, chin liposuction, and a Devil-grade facelift done. Second, the subtle jab at Papa Fred by putting his picture behind everyone else's. Third, I'd bet cash money the paperclipped papers under the paper he's clearly not reading is part of his daily intelligence briefing.

The thing I hadn't seen yet was the black guy who refused to leave the convenience store because he knows horny-for-murder cops when he sees them. "There's nothing I can do for your eyes." Horseshit. They just took water from the convenience store less than 50 feet away that almost assuredly has milk and Maalox in it. There's also no way that rig doesn't have some kind of Maalox in it.

Just finished watching the video in its entirety. IANAL, but it was very "nice" of those two loving pigs to say all of that legally-actionable poo poo at the end, trying to cover their own asses by using implicit threats to his career. I hope he bankrupts that loving department. Unfortunately lovely cops also learn things from situations like this, and what's going to be collectively drummed into their heads is "don't make small talk when you know you've hosed up, make sure they're still scared of you because, remember, you're GOD."

PeterCat posted:For people who act like every day is like going on patrol in Fallujah, once they've got the LT in cuffs they seem to lose all worry about any other threats. The only thing that matters to them is their *inflicting* themselves on whatever target "Other" they've decided is worth their attention and ire at that particular moment. Something else happens? Meh, that's someone else's problem and paperwork. Besides, they were also in a well-lit area. You could almost make a drinking game out of the amount of times the word "minority" was said. I'm still getting over the bootlicking EMT who was stanning for the cops, too.

CommieGIR posted:And let's be honest: We need to remove guns from normal police. They've proven they are incapable of having the discipline or self-control in handling a firearm. This won't happen without open and concealed carry going away, and that won't stop criminals and mass shooters from breaking the law and using guns anyway, and as the response to protests nationwide have proven, when you remove lethal force from the equation and provide LEO with an abundance of less-lethal options, they use the less-lethal options to lethal extents and extremes, like braining someone with a tear gas canister at close range or purposely shooting pepperballs and rubber bullets at no-go areas.

And I'm sure the next Republican president will find a reason to send an "exploratory force" there to keep the cash register ringing. If there were Burger Kings and Subways on bases in Vietnam in the 60s we'd probably still be there.

I can't help but hope/think this might be what deep-sixed the fifty grand of student debt relief thing. They just can't say it outright because THE ALMIGHTY NUMBER hates presidents and policymakers doubting it.

RFC2324 posted:Elijah McClain was murdered by cop administered ketamine, so gently caress that excuse Yeah, that's what I worry is the "next step" after all of this. Cops routinely calling in EMTs to chemically restrain/sedate "difficult/resisting" suspects with Ketamine or Haldol. Then they'll probably figure out a way to bill you for the EMT visit and dispensing of drugs. "NON-LETHAL RESTRAINT!" To say nothing of whether or not you say something self-incriminating while under the influence, they'll claim you said it BEFORE they spiked you up with  .
