Did he say it was a legal obligation? Chill the fuck out you spaz.

So the 21-year old with a 5-year old was being irresponsible? Get out of town.

I would also like to note that the LDS church has worked hard to push back against its leadership becoming mandated reporters, arguing that it interferes with the repentance process. They mess up with stuff relating to sexuality and sex crimes frequently. http://www.feministmormonhousewives.org/2014/05/yeseve…

Is the misspelling of “privilege” part of the joke?

i’m missing something— what did they do? I’d like, for once, to be let in on it, get some of the enjoyment others are having.

I did some stupid stuff as a teenager, but none of it involved physically assaulting anyone else. I hate the false equivalence “haven’t we all...” argument. Yes, I have acted like a jerk and done things I regret. I haven’t assaulted anyone or used racial slurs and if you think everyone has, then you’re the one who is…

It’s Texas. What the fuck else are they going to do? Study science and history?

This particular argument—that these assholes are champions against black genocide—just kills me.

Dad: Hey kids, wanna go see a lynching today?
Son: Yeah!
Daughter: Yeah!
Slave, strapped to the back of the wagon: No....
Dad: Well, two to one!

Not to mention that the book(s) that Christianity is derived from include formal validations and acceptance of slavery by none other than “God” himself. Gee, where could a 19th century white southerner get the notion that owning slaves was his right? Oh yeah! The bible.

And it should be noted, that even though they had religion, they couldn’t read the almighty bible. Why? Because learning to read was illegal.

Religion gave them the same thing it always gives the underclasses - a fairy story that tells them to STFU and take it, they’ll get their reward eventually.

I was formally reprimanded during student teaching for having my students read the Texas Secession Statement. Why? Because “it’s not a part of the curriculum” and I “created a racist environment” for our students...of which a whopping TWO of them were white. It was repeatedly stressed to me that I shouldn’t make them…

I know. I’m so tired of Westerners romanticizing Eastern religions. They are just as ghastly as Western religions.

Maybe this isn’t a problem for you, but you sound like a rapist.

You are one scary dude.

I’m just applying what I learned from cop supporters to this situation. They’re not really far flung. If you go on to any story about police brutality, they are there. And, what I learned from cop supporters is that this man wasn’t charged with rape so its innocent until proven guilty. You’re actually as bad as ISIS…

You know what, on the face of it this story makes me very sad. Her last days were just filled with terror and rape. But what I have learned from the many cop supporters on Gawker is that you can never take a story at face value. She could have been a willing bride and those were not rapes but sex between a married…

Not to ruin the moment, but that’s not true at all. Hartman left SNL in 94 and was murdered in 98. He did for amazing season of NewsRadio and was still a regular guest on The Simpsons. Farley left in 95 and died in December of 97.

Right, but the article makes it clear that this has nothing to do with the videos’ content and is instead a blanket complaint affecting every video with the word “Pixels,” which is irrational and insane.
