Crime stats compared to the local population.
Not so sure about that - some turds are hard to flush.
In South Carolina news on saturday State treasurer Curtis Loftis wrote, in a now deleted tweet, I quote : “I am watching black youths abuse police and white people. Randomly. It’s digusting. #sctweets #scnews #SCPol”.
That’s not immediately stupid, until you realize that by “Randomly” he meant “because they were being hurled abuse at from behind the safety of a police line”, and by “white people” he meant “demonstrators from the actual, no shit but holy shit, how is this still even a thing Ku Klux Klan” who were on the SC Capitol steps to do their thang about the confederate flag being lowered.
Well, maybe that’s not for the Stupid Idea thread. More for the generic “fuck *that *guy right in the ear” thread. Which there totally should be one, BTW.
I guess he doesn’t feel he even needs any reason to go to war. And I guess this “imperial Presidency” he and the GOPpers have been complaining about doesn’t apply when it comes to going to war.
Not quite. He hedged it around with some sorta-kinda, in the standard approach of having it both ways and a little of the third. He would mos’ def cancel the deal on day one, and may have to take military action.
Eventually someone is going to propose renaming the country to “The United States of Reagan”. Maybe the entire continent: North [del]America[/del] Reagan, Central [del]America[/del] Reagan, and South [del]America[/del] Reagan.
My Reagan, 'Tis Of Thee…
We could even name part of the sky after Reagan.
Maybe the “Ronald Reagan Zodiac Belt?”
Someday soon in the dead of night they’re going to vote to put Reagan’s face on Rushmore. I hope the other faces don’t crumble in shame.
The Big Dipper will be renamed the Big Gipper.
Well, we’ve already got a Galaxy named after a candy bar, so why not a Ronald Reagan galaxy?
And Cuba.
Nicaragua can have its own special name: Contra
Well, enjoy this little aural STD.

Scott Walker posted an image of himself folding an American flag “just like he learned in the Scouts.” Except he was folding it wrong, and got called on it, so he deleted the image.
That’s how my scouts did it. Once. In front of 200 people. Then they learned better. Maybe it was his first time trying this difficult task.
That is genuinely brilliant. Thanks for that !
General Wesley Clark wants all Muslims rounded up and put in internment camps.
And Franklin Graham thinks they should just be banned from the United States.
It kinda looks like, if he kept going, he might get the right (sort of) result. It looks like the blue field is facing downward. If Walker did two more triangular folds that field would wrap around and be on the outside. So he’s not got all the details right, but he’s not totally clueless, either.
But taking the picture down as if it never happened is a act of craven puppyhood.
Can we not come to a civilized compromise ? You know, yellow crescent on their clothes, a savage beating here and there and a bi-weekly brick through their windows ?
