  The article in part says:

  "At the time, Mr Azaria - who also provides the voice of popular characters Moe Szyslak and Chief Wiggum, among others - said he found it "very upsetting to me personally and professionally" that anyone was marginalised because of Apu."

  What an incredibly patterning thing to say. How little credit does this guy give to society that he thinks that this character is going to make society hate Indian people (assuming the character is indian).

  How long before mafia movies are banned so that italians are not stereotyped we don't just assume all Italians are mobsters?

  Every instance of this stupidity, gets Trump closer to another 4 years. Reasonable people are tired of this nonsense.

  I guess police in your area have a lot of free time

  Well, i would argue that police should enforce all laws on the books. In a way that's what separates us from third world countries.

  I have been to third world countries, where most laws on the books are mostly suggestions and the police only come when someone is actually killed.

  Drug-Sniffing Dogs Getting Retired at Airports

  by RubaDub in

  i found this interesting in the news that dogs used to sniff for drugs at airports are being significantly cut back here in the us due to the increased legality of marijuana at the state level (though technically still illegal at the federal level) and passengers arriving from canada.

  a large number of the dogs are being put into early retirement.. i learned that dogs can be trained to sniff for drugs but once they "learn" a smell, they cannot unlearn it.

  basically, there is no difference to them between marijuana or cocaine or meth.

  A nation of doped up, pacifist, lazy, gender-confused morons who can't decide which bathroom to use, so they piss and shit out in the street

  Hyperbolic nonsense as usual. I wonder if they said exactly the same when the country came out of prohibition -- i'm sure they did.

  In my area, police do stop and ticket drivers with dark tint on front windows. They want to be able to see how is driving, which makes sense. Likewise nobody should be allowed on the street wearing a burka

  When "all" is not "everyone" or "everything."

  by Wonderment in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  we keep seeing posters bringing col. 1.16 and john 1.3 up as proof that christ is excluded from the creative acts.

  the proof they submit is that the words "all things [gk., pánta]" appear in these texts.

  however, they are missing this important element from the discussion: the word "all" is rarely used in greek, and even in our everyday language to mean literally "everyone" or "everything" under the sky.

  One must wonder if an all-powerful, all-knowing god, would not be able to foresee that humans in the future would be bickering on this one point, to the extend that they must engage is grammatical debate If this god was actually all-knowing and smart, he would make sure to be pretty clear with his words, and there would be no room for discussion.

  Just a correction that I was speaking in general terms, and not about any one person. I have no reason to insult you.

  And also it's really sad that folks who thrive to have a cleaner planet, are now assigned a term (environmentalism), which has the stink of a religious cult.

  I reject that term and others like it -- they are best suited for types who refuse science in exchange of ideology.

  Again in general terms.

  Who make up the new memorial partakers?

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when the doctrine regarding 1935 being the close of the calling was done away with in 2007, it was not unexpected to see the number rise.

  over the next few years it went from around 8,500 to 10,500. this seemed to indicate that there were a couple of thousand people that may have felt they had the calling all along, but too shy to profess it.

  for the 30 year period between the mid 1978 and 2007, parktakers had barely dropped.

  What is Narcissistic Personality Disorder?
  It’s a nice feeling to be admired. It naturally makes us feel good and feel important.

  Bingo. And by the way, if the number had continued to go down, the GB would not have shifted their position on who is the FDS.

  A few thousand egos, ruined it for the entire bunch.

  Any changes we make in our lives will be wiped out a thousand times over by the developing world. If climate change is to be controlled it will done by technology not ideology.

  Nonsense. First of all, I doubt we should be making any 1000-year considerations at this point. Technology will certainly be a part of it, but there needs to be a shift in mindset and most importantly in policy.

  Allocating public money to invest in coal-powered energy while silently hoping technology will catch up to mitigate the damages is simply idiotic. Just as idiotic as throwing a plastic bottle out the window while driving and murmuring "gee, i hope someone invents something to clean that up"

  Relying and hoping on technology is a product of self centered, lazy and stagnant minds who insist on not having their lives and their comfort affected in anyway, for the greater good of mankind.

  Talk about reaching.... just stop.

  This is just a teenager, like many others who are looking for a cause to stand behind. This is a noble cause.

  I wish that when I was her age, I had half of the determination, and sensibility to care about anything worth while.

  At the end of the day, the WHO is not important. The facts that she advocates for is what is important.

  Well the CO is a moron. When a group marches for a cause, it's because they are not tolerant of whatever situation they are faced with. Otherwise, they would just say "Ah fuck it, it's ok"

  The other group will then oppose them, because they are intolerant of them.
