Yeah, I'm a bit confused... Are they feeding it baby formula or human milk? I'm assuming the former, but maybe I'm missing something.

There is a salary cap in most major sports....why the heck dont corporations apply the same thinking?  "Sorry bud, we dont really care how much the company made last quarter.  You arent getting a 35,000 dollar toilet for your office.  Go take a crap in the same place the rest of us do."

Heck, I wouldn't dream of dissing my husband in the UK and not carry a firearm  :wink: :

In Texas, the story would have read: "Estranged husband shot and killed as he broke into his wife's apartment....he was carrying a knife and apparantly was there do do her harm.  The wife had legally purchased the handgun after the husband threatened her with disturbing text messages.  The victim's next of kin said he was a dumbass anyway for marrying someone 15 years younger than him...."  :D

Any chance something like, oh, say, swastikas start showing up on the street signs in that section?

Besides win increasingly meaningless court cases giving them rights for free speech, and fight in the court for the right to get a parade permit in towns just to get on the evening news, has the American Nazi party actually DONE anything the last 40 years?  Every time I see them on TV it's the same 3 morons surrounded by 100's screaming for their blood.  Makes me wonder if they had a little parade and no one came, would they just disappear????

Mike I saw a recent news story about the first black mayor of a small city in New Jersey that had to resign because of the number of threats to him and his family from KKK and neo-nazi groups.

The only story that I could find right away was the following:
http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2009/0 ... ho_re.html

The story I saw on TV indicated that it was the doofus below that was mainly responsible. (He may be one of the three that you mentioned as always being central to these events).

Yep, Bill White is the most prominent whack-job around espousing that point of view.  He's always up front and not camera shy when they have a "special event" scheduled. But I found the last paragraph pretty insightful:

White founded his group, the American National Socialist Workers Party (ANSWP), in 2006, after quitting another neo-Nazi organization, the National Socialist Movement (NSM). Today, the NSM is the only other major neo-Nazi group in America besides ANSWP, which is believed to have fewer than 150 members. Just a few years ago, there were three additional major neo-Nazi groups — the Aryan Nations, the World Church of the Creator (renamed the Creativity Movement after a non-racist church of the same name sued), and the National Alliance — but all three have virtually disappeared in recent years as their leaders have died or been sent to prison.


This sort of garbage is slowly becoming a sad footnote in history rather than any sort of political or social force in America.  Seriously, we have more Acaeum members than all the neo-Nazi groups in America put together....pretty pathetic.  

I still say if we ignored these morons they'd just go away.  The only time I hear anything about them anymore is when they are pathetically whining for airtime by trying to "exercise their free speech" by attempting to get four marchers in a parade in Virginia....and half the time after "proving their point" and getting the permit they don't even show up, scared to death they will take an ass-beating.

Hi,

unfortunately, bad economic times tend to encourage extremist groups, so I would imagine there might be a rise in them.

Cheers,

Not to disrupt the political discussions, but is anyone here a member of Mensa?

[de-cloak]

Does anyone here do Tanga? It's a Woot-like buyer's club that often features gaming items.

Anyway, the ongoing deal is: a metric butt-load of DCC modules for $49. The price, frankly, seems a bit high for this sort of web-site, but it's still a ton of material for $50.

I'm gonna get a set myself, I think. Anyone interested should follow that link; Tanga stuff always sells out.

Yeah, it probably has been. I'm pretty much on 24/7 Mr. Mom duty lately ... who knew that adding that second child would be so much damn work? :wink:

I'm a-lurkin' a bit, though ... so no making fun of White Plume Mountain!
