Jesus fuck U tube is full of videos about precision guided munitions. Put the fuck up or shut the fuck up about them. If they are so fucking accurate send a bunker buster up his ass, you can't miss it. You have over flights. You have spy satellites and intel. You must know where he is or going to be. Cut the head off the snake and no one there is going to miss him or do shit about it. He has no family or real friends left, he killed them all.

Rolling Stone used to be counterculture. They were alt-media before that was a thing. But their counterculture slowly became the machine of state much as the leftists who led revolutions in the 1960s slowly evolved into the intolerant, conformist "Man"/establishment groupthink entrenched political establishment of gray haired relics reliving their glory days by forcing their corrupt and discredited ideology on youth. Nobody who wants to be cool wants to read a big government cheerleader publication.

 

Rolling Stone, Once a Counterculture Bible, Will Be Put Up for Sale

 

From a loft in San Francisco in 1967, a 21-year-old named Jann S. Wenner started a magazine that would become the counterculture bible for baby boomers. Rolling Stone defined cool, cultivated literary icons and produced star-making covers that were such coveted real estate they inspired a song.

 

But the headwinds buffeting the publishing industry, and some costly strategic missteps, have steadily taken a financial toll on Rolling Stone, and a botched story three years ago about an unproven gang rape at the University of Virginia badly bruised the magazine’s journalistic reputation.

 

And so, after a half-century reign that propelled him into the realm of the rock stars and celebrities who graced his covers, Mr. Wenner is putting his company’s controlling stake in Rolling Stone up for sale, relinquishing his hold on a publication he has led since its founding.

 

Mr. Wenner had long tried to remain an independent publisher in a business favoring size and breadth. But he acknowledged in an interview last week that the magazine he had nurtured would face a.......

Last weekend watched all of an hour of NFL football, no preseason, nothing this weekend. Don't really miss it.

I see the problem is going to get much worse before the front office steps in to make changes.

 

 

 

NFL players now taking their protests onto the field

                       Let me guess - they don't donate most of their salary & time to help make things better.

To me,they're just a bunch of spoiled brats,who want attention.

Latest kookie leftist theory: "NFL ratings are down because foosball fans are angry that the NFL is racist towards Colin Kaepernick not because viewers dislike politics being injected into foosball!"

Idiocracy killed MLB in 1994.

 

Idicracy may kill the NFL.

 

Can I say as someone who hates any and all sports that I fucking love the idea of another sport slipping into cultural irrelevancy!?!

 

Also, do Colin Kaepernick's Series of Unwatchable Events cause the NFL's disenchanted viewers to lean right or left???? MLB crashed and burned in the summer of 1994 and then repugs gained the House and Senate that following November.

We Didn't Normalize Trump. We Normalized the Left's Violence.

 

Once upon a time, conservatives spoke at universities without $600,000 in police protection.

 

Last week, conservative Ben Shapiro gave a speech. At Berkeley. And all across America, people watched their screens to see what sort of violence would erupt.

 

Reality was anticlimactic. Law enforcement was out in force, at an estimated price tag of $600,000. Concrete barriers were erected to hold back the liberal “antifa,” and police obtained permission in advance to use pepper spray. Much of campus was locked down and cleared out. Nine people were arrested. And so, Shapiro arrived, gave his speech, and departed without the mayhem we’ve become accustomed to seeing at such appearances. And collective relief was sighed.

 

But how relieved should we be that this is what it takes to maintain order in the face of … a speech? On the one hand it shows that even in the heart of antifa territory, police and authorities that are actually determined to control them can do so. That’s good to know (and gives the lie to chicken authorities who would give antifa a heckler’s veto). And yet, those authorities could be forgiven for feeling daunted, even aggrieved, when they realize that every speaker antifa doesn’t like means vast sums, and considerable effort, expended on turning your public spaces into a demilitarized zone.

 

I don’t have an ironclad date for when antifa became a recognizable, and destructive, force in our politics. But I really began to notice them around the time of Trump’s election, when I saw people defending their actions on the grounds that they were trying to stop Trump from being “normalized.” It was argued that protesting-as-usual -- show up, mill around for a while, chant a bit, and then go home to see how much news coverage you got -- was inadequate to our uniquely dangerous historical moment. Stronger action was called for.

 

But how does that justify antifa’s tactics? It’s not as if the police are unable, or unwilling, to deal with white supremacists who commit violent acts. We may wish that they had gotten to those people soon enough to prevent tragedies like the killing in Charlottesville, but it’s not as if antifa is a crack team of investigators who can stop crimes before they happen. The only things they can stop, and the police cannot, are things that aren’t crimes: notably, people exercising their First Amendment rights to peaceably assemble and speak their minds.

St. Louis officers chant ‘whose streets, our streets’ while arresting protesters

 

After a third night of violence and unrest in St. Louis, about 100 protesters marched in silence along downtown streets Monday during the morning rush hour. Once they reached City Hall, the silence gave way to chants for justice.

 

The city has been marked by protests since Friday, when former police officer Jason Stockley was acquitted on charges of murdering a black motorist after a police chase in 2011. Stockley is white.

 

Overnight Sunday, police arrested more than 80 people after a peaceful protest turned violent as night fell. In a concentrated area downtown, some protesters smashed windows and overturned trash cans, while others threw chemicals and rocks at police, authorities said.

 

“After the demonstration, organizers announced that the daytime protest was over,” Mayor Lyda Krewson said in news conference at about 1 a.m. Monday. “But a group of agitators stayed behind, apparently intent on breaking windows and destroying property.”

 

She declined to take reporters’ questions.

 

Some protesters complained that police were unnecessarily aggressive. Further inflaming tensions, a St. Louis photographer reported he and others heard police chant “whose streets, our streets” after making some arrests.

What are you complaining about? This is incredibly fast. The armed forces have a different code of law than civilian. I some cases there is automatic appeal but otherwise they and only they decide if they want to hear it. In other words take it or leave it. If this was a civilian matter it would drag out for years and years selecting a jury, pre trial motions etc. etc. etc..

They should have kept the older journalists they had. But it was inevitable that someone from the new school of journalism would be hired. You know the schools that don't teach anything about ethics, or truth, or integrity. The newscasters of today like CNN, NBC, ABC, Fox and the rest. Anyone say, older than 45-50, that is a product of the early '90s, that calls themselves a journalist.

Didn't the head of the 7th fleet get the boot the next day after that last collision?
