WOW. You *are* still blaming the victims here. You're really focused on finding reasons to fault the victims in both these situations and I find it really sickening. The blame lies solely with the drivers. Your logic is not even sound — people die while sitting in cars EVERY day. If your vehicle is disabled, you will…

I'm really bothered by this: "and has had their life ruined" line in your comment. He didn't have his life ruined, dude. He ruined his own life. It didn't happen to him, he did it. That type of passive language implies that someone else did him wrong by throwing him in prison for a really idiotic decision he made that…

I guess I did assume because the guy responding to you/agreeing with you called it "Bay shit" that other people just couldn't understand. I don't understand your point though. So there are two dangerous things and I should get over them? How about no dangerous things and no unnecessary traffic jams? How about I don't…

Like what? "We love traffic jams." "Fuck your commute, you can sit in traffic for another hour."?

You claim to live in the Bay Area but your comments have me seriously questioning whether you've ever had to commute here. If so, you wouldn't pretend like this shit only takes up 5-10 minutes of time. That's complete bullshit. You do not understand how traffic jams work.

Are you a troll? All I see are millions of your comments complaining about being "shamed" for wearing thongs (and I have yet to see any of those shaming comments) and then when you insult an entire body type, she should just "get over it"? You must be trolling or else you have some weird cognitive dissonance about…

Can you explain, please?

Thanks, you too.

Lol. For an attorney you sure seem to have a lack of legal knowledge. Cool story, bro.

Uh, what? They've been sued before so they should just throw caution to the wind and take on defamation/libel/slander suits all over the place? This is not how media works. You seem to be trying really hard to understand it, but you're ignoring the important stuff. Maybe you have ideas on how you think it *should*…

No, you're still wrong, but I give you props for trying so hard. It's still a legal issue. The perps have been identified. Even though The View did not identify them, they have been identified and could sue in the off-chance they were not convicted. It's a pending trial and stuff like this would also be used by the…

Oh my god. Chill out, bro. You weren't joking, I was. Why is it anytime someone gets proven wrong, they feel the need to lash out and act like the person calling them out is so upset. I'm not upset. No one "pissed in my cheerios." I was just right, and you were just wrong. I'm sorry to piss in your cheerios, so to…

I am aware of this fact, and it does not matter. That does not change the fact that the ("alleged") rapists have not yet faced trial or been convicted. Therefore, any media outlets reporting on the issue will continue to use the terms "claims" "alleged" "allegations" etc to avoid lawsuits. This isn't just for rapes,…

Okay. You really know how to stand up for your (stupid) arguments, buddy. Thanks for conceding. Good discussion.

Legal issues. Can't fault them for not wanting to get sued. Just like news orgs have to say "alleged" if the person hasn't been convicted. Even the Boston bomber kid is "alleged" even though everyone knows he did it.

Okay. It was obviously a joke, because of his deadpan pause afterwards, which broke into suppressed giggles after a few seconds. You also hear stifled laughter off camera. Your turn.

His inflection made me think he was making a joke. I'm pretty sure he was just making a stupid joke, and it wasn't any of the stuff you said.

So stupid, it doesn't warrant more of a response than this.

No, far worse. They're all over the fucking internet, interjecting into every conversation that so much as mentions a religion, and forcing their own beliefs (or lack thereof, if you will) on everyone. And insisting that anyone who believes anything other than them is stupid/inferior. It's really kind of ironic. But…

What have you had to go into the DMV for in CA lately? I've been able to do everything online/through the mail here, too.
