  • Clarence Thomas' luxury vacations aren't going to pay for themselves!

  • Ted Cruz is a big tough manly man. Just look at that beard! He ain't 'fraid of nuthin exceptin' them there pesky constituents.

  • It wasn’t always this way. Eric Rudolph got 4 consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole. Timothy McVeigh got the death penalty. Ted Kaczynski got 8 consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole.

    Unfortunately after 9/11 we seem to have decided only brown people can be terrorists despite the fact that the FBI’s own data suggests right wing domestic terrorism has always posed a greater threat to us than that of foreign actors.

    Edit: Attention apologists, I have zero interest in your attempts to downplay this person’s act of terrorism. You're just going to be blocked.

  • Expert hider

  • Tornetta also turned up in videos drumming at the legendary former New York club CBGB with his now-defunct metal band "Dawn of Correction", which described its sound as "a swift kick to the face with a steel-toed work boot."

    "I was in a band for seven years. It was a death metal band. People either loved us or they hated us. Or they thought we were okay. A lot of bands have intense names, like "Rigor Mortis" or "Mortuary". We weren't that intense—we called ourselves "Injured". Later on we changed it to "Acapella" when we were walking out of the pawn shop." - Mitch Hedberg

  • Yeah “envy” is an odd word choice, I’m not sure why they went with that. As far as my understanding goes he was just a garden variety domestic abuser who escalated to the point of murdering his wife in a fit of rage. It’s not that interesting, just another senseless DV tragedy.

  • The older I get the more I can relate to this quote from Friends:

  • That's the correct explanation. Michael Jace, former star on The Shield (who murdered his wife in 2014) is also serving his life sentence at Corcoran. They're both considered "high profile" inmates and Corcoran State Prison's Level IV housing and protective custody units are set up to handle these type of inmates whose fame and notoriety make it dangerous for them to be in gen pop.

    Other notable inmates: Charles Manson, Rodney Alcala (The Dating Game Killer), and Sirhan Sirhan (assassinated RFK)

  • I'm partial to the beefy 5 layer burrito and the cheesy bean and rice burrito.

  • Exactly. She's rightly being investigated and she deserves to be criticized for what at best, seems like a conflict of interest for employing her husband, but she should not be subjected to racist attacks. Troy Nehls is just a bigoted piece of garbage looking for an excuse to go on a racist rant to score some easy points with his racist constituents.

  • It's always the same exact same lazy argument with corporate bootlickers.

    "DoNt BuY iT!!!1!"

    "CorPoRaTiOnS NeEd To MaKe MoNeY!!"

    "YoU ArEnT EntTitLeD tO AnYThIng!!!!"

    "X,Y,Z IsNt A HuMaN RiGhT"

    Yeah, yeah, yeah.

  • Because it's a gradual death-march to pricing out the ad free tiers entirely. Right now we're in the 'illusion of choice' phase. But ad free tiers will continue to become more and more expensive until one day corporations can turn around and justify removing them by blaming consumers. "We're getting rid of our ad-free plans due to lack of consumer interest." It won't be a lack of interest. It'll be a lack of affordability. And you can be damn sure once the ad-free plans are gone those ad based plans will end up priced at the rate for the old ad-free options. It's corporate gaslighting and it's happening right now.

  • However, that’s not what the Scalia quote says - it says that whether the right exists was decided by the outcome of physical conflict.

    As I explained already, that's not what the Scalia quote is saying. That's what you erroneously imagine it to say. There is a difference and it's already been explained to you both in the original article I linked to and by myself. We are done here. Any replies from you will be ignored.

  • I suggest you read the article I linked to from the Texas Tribune in my original comment. It could not be more clear that you didn't bother and I'm not going to continue rephrasing it's conclusions for you.

  • No. He was saying a state cannot unilaterally secede from the union. Succession is technically possible but requires the union to agree to let whichever state is dumb enough to try it. Otherwise it is literally a declaration of war against the union.

  • That's rich coming from the network that's been fellating a reality tv star 24/7 for 8 years.

  • Except it doesn't, legally. We shut that shit down after the civil war, Nikki.

    I hate to quote Antonin fucking Scalia here but... “If there was any constitutional issue resolved by the Civil War, it is that there is no right to secede." Source - TexasTribune.org

  • Football team that’s been a dominant presence in the league for the last several seasons wins AFC Championship again and will be returning to the Super Bowl*
