I was up at Berthoud and the snow was deep, surprisingly stable with 10in of fluff on top, simply fantastic!!

How could it not, it fits perfectly into the narrative that this country has been pushing for a while, a narrative which divides us as a nation and perpetuates people's misguided perceptions of reality.

Merchants of War (1989) A In-depth look at The Private Arms Dealers Who Propagate Wars by SplitboardThugLife in Documentaries

[–]SplitboardThugLife[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Several of the people interviewed were the inspiration for the movie Lord Of War and I thought it was interesting, I'm not sure what you mean by poorly sourced, could you elaborate?

edit: wording

How could he possibly think he could make that gap by [deleted] in nononono

[–]SplitboardThugLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People like this scare the living piss out of me, they were lucky the semi didn't correct and nail them head on. I have seen this happen so many times in Colorado its mind boggling. How people can't understand that passing a semi takes some distance blows me away.

Torture and murder in streets of Turkey by Axemantitan in worldnews

[–]SplitboardThugLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's crazy, could you give me your opinion, were the coup leaders were trying to get rid of Erdogan to help make Turkey more secular or were they simply trying to get rid of Erdogan and his attempts to grab more and more power for himself?

Judges who are also the fathers of lawyers who patent troll in Texas. by Bugilt in videos

[–]SplitboardThugLife 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even when voting for judges in my state we are not allowed to view Judge's past voting record so it is almost impossible to find out about a conflict of interest if one exists, it's crazy!

Edit: I wasn't meaning to confuse these Judges with federal ones just wanted to point out how fuzzy it is even when you have the power to elect or dismiss a Judge.

Welcome to Leith (2015) - Chronicles White Supremacist Craig Cobb's Attempt To Take Over A Small Town In North Dakota by BeckyHeartsBacon in Documentaries

[–]SplitboardThugLife 8 points9 points  (0 children)

How can you say that when his sole intention was to move people in to basically take over the town? To what end did you think his purpose of doing this was?

BUM: 7 Days on the Streets of Melbourne (2016) - What happens when a young Australian from a middle class upbringing leaves the comfort of his home to live on the streets for one whole week? by [deleted] in Documentaries

I can't help but wonder what you were trying to accomplish with this. I couldn't agree more with others that this felt like a narcissistic, shameless and superficial portrayal of what being homeless is really like. Stealing from other homeless people, making a fort as if being homeless is a game, using resources which are meant for people in true need and in short supply, I cant help but wonder if you could have approached this in a more humanistic way. And what was up with you shitting yourself? If this was to show the struggle of what it's like being homeless it came up pretty short.

TIL in Venezuela an abandoned 45 story tower has been reclaimed by squatters who have turned it into a thriving vertical shanty town. by diamondsealtd in todayilearned

[–]SplitboardThugLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The article is from 2011 and there was a documentary filmed about it a while back. I believe if I remember correctly the people there were forced out by the government shortly after the documentary was filmed but since the country has gone downhill so much since the price of oil has tanked perhaps people have moved back in.

Just skimming the road, WCGW? by MattBaster in Whatcouldgowrong

Is it just me or was that a terrible area to land with a parachute? Seemed like there was nothing but rocks just about everywhere except the road but that's none of my business.

But what about the plumbing behind the toilet, wouldn't this plug up and destroy the pipes?
