That's the hook. It's implying that Obama personally ordered him to stand down.

Well it's implying Obama shouldn't be able to... but, unless I'm seriously crazy on how chain of command works, Commander in Chief is kind of the top of the line.

I understand it the same way Ignatz Mouse did. The image is implying, that Obama ordered the General to not help.

Rhomega Beta should post this in response to the pic.

I'd say hit them with the full schedule of unemployment numbers, including the participation rate-- but that won't convince them if they put stock in this chart.

There's so much to love about that graph...
The Y-axis made to look much bigger than it actually is—linking Bush Sr and Clinton with Bush Jr.'s administrations to obfuscate the fact that Clinton did better while it went down under both Bushes... man!

holy shit, this thread is still going. I had no idea it got moved to community.

This shit infuriates me. I called Paul Ryan a hypocrite the other day and there's this one guy I went to highschool with who always comments whenever I call a republican a hypocrite. I posted the article about Ryan demanding family time but has voted against every bill that enables more. And he posts about how he's not necessarily opposed to it he just doesn't think he it should be mandated.

FOX news has done a great job brainwashing people. You can't even reason with most of these people.

So, I have somebody on Facebook who I called a friend in high school but nothing more than a acquaintance these days.

Guy recently posted a picture of his new flag pole with the American flag on top, which is fine, but underneath a tea party flag, the one with the rattle snake. We live in Southern California...

What made me laugh is the fucker works for the Sheriffs department lol. Ya fucker, don't want to get "treaded" on by the government when that is exactly what the dude does for the government.

While I'm not saying that he's NOT affiliating himself with the Tea Party, I just wanted to point out that it's an actual flag that predates the TP.

One of my cousins shared one of the original Marine Todd stories on FB yesterday without realizing that it was lampooning the very message he wanted us to read.

 

[captive]

One of my favorite new things is "I'm a black guy and I just got pulled over and lived to tell the tale!" posts.

like this one I just saw, complete with the guys picture

So, I'm driving to my office to turn in my weekly paperwork. A headlight is out. I see a Tucson Police Department squad vehicle turn around and follow me. I'm already preparing for the stop.

The lights go on and I pull over. The officer asks me how I'm doing, and then asks if I have any weapons.

"Yes, sir. I'm a concealed carry permit holder and my weapon is located on my right hip. My wallet is in my back-right pocket."

The officer explains for his safety and mine, he needs to disarm me for the stop. I understand, and I unlock the vehicle. I explain that I'm running a 7TS ALS holster but from the angle, the second officer can't unholster it. Lead officer asks me to step out, and I do so slowly. Officer relieves me of my Glock and compliments the X300U I'm running on it. He also sees my military ID and I tell him I'm with the National Guard.

Lead officer points out my registration card is out of date but he knows my registration is up to date. He goes back to run my license. I know he's got me on at least two infractions. I'm thinking of how to pay them.

Officers return with my Glock in an evidence back, locked and cleared. "Because you were cool with us and didn't give us grief, I'm just going to leave it at a verbal warning. Get that headlight fixed as soon as possible."

I smile. "Thank you, sir."

I'm a black man wearing a hoodie and strapped. According to certain social movements, I shouldn't be alive right now because the police are allegedly out to kill minorities.

Maybe...just maybe...that notion is bunk.

Maybe if you treat police officers with respect, they will do the same to you.

Police officers are people, too. By far and large, most are good people and they're not out to get you.

I'd like to thank those two officers and TPD in general for another professional contact.

We talk so much about the bad apples who shouldn't be wearing a badge. I'd like to spread the word about an example of men who earned their badges and exemplify what that badge stands for.

[EDIT: In my rush to post, I accidentally omitted that my wallet was in the back-right pocket, near my firearm. This was the primary motivation for temporary disarmament. The post has been modified to reflect that.

Again, I'd like to thank the TPD and their officers for their consistent professionalism, courtesy, and the good work that they do, both in this particular contact and every day.]

I thought the story was okay, until I reached the bottom part.

What a load of Bullshit

That smarmy expression on the clip art makes me want to punch something.

 

[neshcom]

That reminds me:

Those damn millennials, always wanting to not be shot. What's kind of ironic is that it's the police that have the most leniency in accountability despite having the most responsibility to protect people.

I think those have been around for a while. I've seen tons of them. Feels like every tenth car is one, but I know it must be lower.

 

[Kaiterra]

That reminds me:

I see some variation on this almost daily, but usually with an explicit mention of the need for people to beat their kids. A nice mixture of racism, ignorance and shitty parenting technique.

I make it a game to count how many I see wherever I drive---I don't think I've ever seen less than five in a single trip.

Conservative men just can't get enough of saying stupid things about rape.

 

[You Know Nothing]

Wow, that rape image missed the mark and then flew off a cliff.

#conservativelogic

Conservative men just can't get enough of saying stupid things about rape.

Don't forget to make the distinction between rape and legitimate rape.

Note the woman on the left is also wearing a spaghetti strap tanktop and bare midriff. Trying to roll in a 'blame the victim' message in as well?

First time hearing about the movie. Looks like fun, but I don't understand why Seth Rogan is the main character. Going by the premise, it should be Joseph Gordon-Levitt, since he's the one who won't be able to spend Christmas Eve with his friends anymore, and should have to learn to move on.

This just reinforces the notion that conservatives don't know anything about how and when rape occurs. They always imagine a rapist standing on the opposite side of the room announcing they're going to rape the victim, when in realty, it usually happens when 1) the rapist is already in a position of power (such as when the victim is unconscious) and 2) the rapist is known by victim before hand.

But hey, I'm probably just preaching to the choir.

They think of things in such childish terms. Rape is done by some boogie man evil person that you can see a mile away! You can be a hero if you have a gun!

But yeah in reality I think adding a gun to that equation you just described is fucking bad news most of the time.

That one like sells it.

And if I would ever see someone on my FB-feed share that rape picture I would use FB for the first ime to find out an address. That's not gonna fly.

[RDreamer]

Because all the videos that have come out clearly show that the cops needed help from the video taker...

 

[El Odio]

The thing that kills me about the rape picture is that it once posted by someone but liked by a friend of mine who is largely liberal so I'd have figured they know how fucking stupid of a statement it is.

 

[Kaiterra]

Haha I just popped in to make a comment after seeing an aunt post this same one. Every time I see a pro-corporal punishment meme like this or something going on about how kids don't have discipline these days... It kills me how EVERY DAMN TIME it's from some older relative or coworker about whom I have TOTALLY heard stories where they were hellraisers as kids.

Just experienced this myself lol. My colleague is a very nice and chill social science taecher with both feets on the ground. She shares a facebook account with her husband... who is seemingly a racist. Kinda astonishing actually - I feel kinda awkward blocking the account from my feed because sometimes the posts are fine and interesting, but I don't want to read the bigoted media stuff he shares.
