Chief Queef’s already tried to explain this, but: quantitative survey research (such as you’d see in political polls or the U.S. Census) is SELF-REPORTED. Qualitative interview data are SELF-REPORTED. Medical studies that track patients’ diet, activity, level of pain/discomfort, etc. are often SELF-REPORTED.

No, he’s just the kind of asshole who thinks he can anything to anyone. Can’t remember where I read this, but there’s a researcher who discovered a correlation between sexual transgression behavior and financial malfeasance—to the point that you can pretty much find a guy who views child porn and expect to also find…

Oh yeah, Tiffany exists.

Trump is like pure Id. I’m not sure he even realizes what he’s saying or doing. He’s so fucked in the head, he’s probably actually had to stop and try to figure out why he’s not supposed to have sex with his own daughter. After all these years, he’s still not sure.

Ahlam Tamimi is her aunt who aided in that 2001 Sbarro suicide bombing, but given that she’s been either in jail or living in Jordan for all of Ahed’s life, let’s maybe not assume the two have any sort of relationship?

I mean, assaulting a police officer is like up to 5 years for Israeli citizens (with other possible charges for Palestinians) and up to 25 years in New York (http://www.hopesandfears.com/hopes/city/city_index/215849-city-index-the-penalties-for-assaulting-a-cop). Plain assault is up to a year in the US. So…

Really admire Sarah Silverman for this.

“sometimes i forget that i belong to all of you now, and that any thought i have should be filtered through you, and receive ur approval.”

Israelis live under Israeli civil law.

Eight months for slapping your colonizer, nine months for shooting your colonized in the back of the head while they’re motionless on the ground. Makes sense!

In other Israel news today the IDF soldier who executed an injured knife attacker has had his very lenient 18 month prison sentence not only cut to 14 months last year but is now being shortened again by several months and will be out in May.

Hey - I know some humans, and they’re sort of ok.

I’m surprised to see Republicans embracing such an anti-capitalistic policy position.

So if drug dealers are responsible for drug deaths, are gun dealers responsible for gun deaths?
