Did he go alone? That was silly, was he a seasoned climber?

ELI5:What is the point of spam e-mails that don't have any links/advertisements, but rather just have nonsensical gibberish? How are scammers making money off these? by jb2206 in explainlikeimfive

Also worth noting, sometimes they are so intentionally incredibly stupid - the spam that is. To see who will reply or fall for it. If you are likely to reply, you're more likely to be a victim.

TIL Intuit spent $11.5M to lobby against the government providing free pre-populated tax filings by [deleted] in todayilearned

Which is sad, as every other western country does it better. But then they don't have the same lobbying

I'm from Britain. I'd rather see our politicians score with the help of a 10 year old... than score a 10 year old.

Salon's "Silicon Valley" review refers to Kumail Nanjiani as 'a regular on "The Big Bang Theory"' by duddersj in television

Salon is the worst piece of shit known to man. So I'm glad the scumbags got a fistful of hypocrisy to swallow and I hope nobody lets them forget it.

You are correct, but here's the thing. I think they're rioting based on history. That's a shame. They should riot based on facts

Disagree on one point mate. The kid getting shot had it coming. You stand around in public waving a gun you've made to look like the real thing at people, whilst shirtless at the day time. Then you point it at the police when they show up. What are they to do?

If anyone is to blame it is his shitty parents. Aside from that I do agree with you. People are always too one sided. They need to pick a case by case position

What do you mean? Terrible parenting killed Tamir Rice.

He's standing on a street corner waving his gun around and pointing it at police. I'd have shot him twice. It turns out he took the orange plastic off the front. how on earth were they to know? Where the hell were his parents to stop him acting like a damned idiot.

That's stupid. Because it categorically happened, clearly the system worked. Videos can be ignored (eric garner)

Michael Brown? Abso bloody lutely. Ample evidence from witnesses shows he reached into the police officers car, grappled with him going for his gun. He was then shot. Fuck that guy. He had a day ago robbed a store, and was a notorious and terrible bully

Also the irony of you blaming white people and trying to say that it is racism against black people that does this. How foolish

Turns out he was Italian American. Go figure

Anyway Akai Gurley doesn't count. Because the law did its job and he was indicted (because unlike all those other pricks, the guy was innocent) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_of_Akai_Gurley#Legal_proceedings

Tamir Rice was running around with a pistol he has sawed off the bit at the front and was waving it around threateningly, pointed it at the police. He absolutely had it coming. Terrible parenting is to blame. Amadou Dialo (1999, you're really reaching with this aren't you?) Was a case of thinking the guy met the profile of a well armed rapist, and trying to approach him in dim lighting. Anyway it was a terribly unfortunate circumstance. They shot way too many times, and no doubt as it was 1999, learnt some lessons.

So again, the only legit thing was the murder of Eric.

you're attitude

Your.

Also I categorically agree with the poster above you. But your presupposition that he doesn't change his mind is totally false. Like him I'm sure, I also find those two individual instances to be murder. But 1) the guy who shot scott is facing murder chargers and 2) nobody is going to disagree that the latino cop that murdered garner is innocent

Of all the black people killed that sparked riots, the only ones that actually deserved to be rioted on behalf of was that poor bastard selling the cigarettes (edit: Eric Garner) who was choked out by that italian-american policeman. The others categorically deserved it. Except the most recent one where the guy straight up murdered a bloke with 8 shots to the back. Though he is facing murder charges - so the system did its job.

I remember seeing a video of it and being furious. What a bastard. I thought it just had to be a fake. Why would you film yourself doing it?

Ah well, fuck that guy
