Fuzz Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Until I clicked on the link, I thought you were talking about the MSNBC promo that's gone viral. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3qtpdSQox0 Looks like she has "clarified" her statements. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/04/13/melissa-harris-perry-i-stand-by-kids-belong-to-whole-communities-msnbc-promo/ “I stand by that statement. Families have first and primary responsibility for their children. The private sphere of our homes and families deserves great deference in policy and in practice…but I believe our children are not our private property, they are not just extensions of ourselves. They are independent, individual beings.” “This is about whether we as a society, expressing our collective will through our public institutions, including our government, have a right to impinge on individual freedoms in order to advance a common good. And that is exactly the fight that we have been having for a couple hundred years,” I'm sorry my kids belong to me, not my neighborhood, the government or anyone else on this planet, I will raise them how I see fit, and you can keep you collective, communist bullshit for your kids and anyone else who doesn't have balls to take responsibility for their actions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So by clarifying.. she said the exact same thing again and in a worse manner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vertigo Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Michele Bachmann, enough said. Jesus Fuckin' Christ... does she not see the damn cameras in the room? And she's on the Senate Intelligence Committee? Keep electing 'em tea partiers. I'm sure they'll do great things for us one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets start from the top...Gaffe-a-day Biden, fienstien, McCarthy (barrel shroud lady), and of course the idiot worried about Okinawa capsizing. Not saying republicans don't occasionally say dumb stuff but I think the dems have the market cornered. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jughead Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Btw it was Guam, not Okinawa. Naturally. C'mon, everyone knows that Okinawa has outriggers designed to keep it from capsizing. Guam should take a hard look at installing those.... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our biggest problem is that we keep re-electing the same politicians, even when the overall approval rating is in the single digits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our biggest problem is that our society, in general, is gullible/ignorant enough to keep electing the same politicians. It reeks of the definition of insanity...keep doing the same thing with the expectation of a different outcome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stitch Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Naturally. C'mon, everyone knows that Okinawa has outriggers designed to keep it from capsizing. Guam should take a hard look at installing those.... The outridders were already budgeted and approved for installation but the project got axed with the sequester. In the meantime, Guamanian officials will need to adhere to strict weight and balance guidelines to prevent an out of balance situation and subsequent island overcenter conditions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afnav Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I know they were trying to make a point, but you really don't need to post it behind a headline like that. Anyone with half an IQ point who has seen all of the coverage and has an elementary understanding of law enforcement is probably leaning towards a domestic individual, anyway. Let the professionals do their jobs and keep the politics out of it until the crime is solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HU&W Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) This is more of a HOLY CRAP! than a WTF, but I couldn't find a better thread for it. The attached video is a first-hand recording of the explosion today in West, TX. A guy pulled his truck over to iPhone record a building that was on fire. Then it explodes. On a side note, West, TX is a favorite little town for my family. Any time we're driving from Dallas to Austin on I35, we stop at the Czech Stop there for Kolaches. Some of the nicest people and wonderful food. The families of that small town who were affected by this tragedy are in my prayers tonight.

No worries, it's not like it was its own thread or anything. The mere fact that video made the news tells me the person who took it--and more importantly, the child(ren) in the vehicle with him--survived!
