This is why I got so pissed off listening to critics of women serving on combat front lines. They would go on about how "what would happen if they were captured? Women would be raped" and I realized that their concern for women wasn't that they would get raped, but the possibility that the enemy might get to enjoy…

he has the power and almost impunity as a last term prez to do a lot, but he still has to toe the party line for 2016. :/ he should have been balls to the wall from the get go, with his presidency. i don't hate him, but his presidency has been disappointing.

Again, I must put this up, and will continue to do so, until we see a meaningful change:

"That's when race is used to engage law enforcement in the minority community, " she explained. "But offender profiling is when an offender is ID'd by a description including his race, which is the only way to investigate some of these cases."

She's got a point. I mean sometimes I wonder why I don't just walk up to cops, drop to my knees, and start blowing them. They work hard, after all.

Wait, so Taylor Swift ripped off Einstein in the "Shake it Off" lyrics?

Great comment, especially for coining, 'give them the Nancy.'

The remarkable thing, to me, about this is the continuing dystopian fantasy about "women's privileges" maintained by these nutcases and far too many who don't pull out the guns, but complain privately. If you quiz them about what these "privileges" are, they'll tell you:

- women expect and get free everything
- women…

You're just one person, and that's a cute little tidbit of data, but it doesn't at all jibe with what the culture on the whole was doing. Also, your daughter shouldn't own Nevermind - she should have her own shitty music that you hate.

Did your dad?

They were. If you don't think they were, you must not have been old enough to see how music changed immediately.

Look, I'm as much of a backwards looking rock fan as anyone else but you can't deny that it's a waning art. You're talking about a bunch of bands who are for the most part 10-15 years old and who aren't exactly challenging Taylor Swift for album sales records.

You don't know shit about Oly. And Kurt is from the coast, Aberdeen. Olympia is the genesis of Seattle rock, and the most bohemian city in WA. It houses this awesome university started by actual -60's-era Ken-Kesey-friends-hippies called Evergreen. Pass/fail and you get to choose your own major. But it's intense and…

I get what you're saying, but leaving out women in Seattle is egregious. The grunge culture was super feminist and was equally influenced by women. A HUGE part of the movement was walking away from the horrible misogyny in the rock music of the 80's.

Anna, everyone makes bad calls on the internet now and then. People who are able to own their mistakes are few and far between. Even fewer are those who offer abject apologies. Kudos.

What evidence points to him being falsely accused? What single scrap of evidence points to a false accusation?

You are supposed to be an objective journalist
