Chooses a screen name to mock the nightmarish death of a two-year-old, then proceeds to lecture others about their poor “attitude.” Get cancer.

Hey, at least nothing got stolen.

Great talking to you.

And yet, positive depictions of gay characters in entertainment media is given a lot of credit for the rapid shift in Americans’ views on gay people and gay rights. The shows Will and Grace, and Ellen come immediately to mind. It’s impossible not to acknowledge the effect entertainment media has on public opinion, so…

Well, then you’ve long believed something insanely stupid. Racists can see skin color, whether or not you point it out to them. Obviously.

Why would they have a problem using the slogan created by racists to undermine the message of the movement? Jeez, I don’t know, Flaagan. Why are your pants on backwards?

The legal world is an arbitrary construct of often contradictory rules, and the idea that the rules are more important than anything. The “real” world is the one where a girl is contractually obligated to associate with her rapist.

I’ll go even further and suggest we’d all be a lot better off if we just thought for ourselves once in a while, instead of trying to figure out what a bunch of dead guys would have thought.

To be fair, a lot of these problems are caused by twats, and the children of twats, who went to private/prep schools.

Haha, nice try. Where are you going to get $100?

Only when he/she wants to hear, “What the fuck you smiling at?” from some angry-looking dude with his hand on the butt of a gun.

Ha! I object to the cynicism of your post, but that was a Colbert-worthy line at least.

Western nations are the primary cause of both climate change and so-called “third world shit holes.” Washing our hands of the problem(s) is not an option any reasonable person would suggest.

It’s far too early to give up on mitigation, but you may be happy to learn that the IPCC shares your concerns.

I agree. As powerful and wealthy as the fossil fuel industry is, there are other corporations out there whose interests run counter to Big Oil and Big Coal.

That’s unsubstantiated, speculative nonsense. A few very wealthy and very powerful corporations are working desperately to protect their industry from further regulation. That’s clearly more plausible than all of the world’s major scientific institutions being subverted in the name of making Al Gore a bit of money. Be…

“I think we will get there because China is rational,” Hansen says. “Their leaders are mostly trained in engineering and such things, they don’t deny climate change and they have a huge incentive, which is air pollution. It’s so bad in their cities they need to move to clean energies. They realise it’s not a hoax. But…
