Yeah, this is a horrible take. It isn’t like they speak the language of the Rain. They speak Spanish just like many other former Spanish colonies. I’m generally confused about why one colonial culture would be considered better or worse.

Alternatively, we picked the perfect time because there isn’t a “right” side of any of these conflicts.

I’m sorry, I’m supposed to be mad at the Swift camp for being pissed off at hacky journalists labeling her as the poster child for white supremacy? I just cannot fathom why people keep saying the left is its own worst enemy.

How are you gonna blame Taylor Swift for moron racists liking and finding hidden nonexistent messages in her music? That piece that Meghan Herning wrote is hot garbage, and if you think Taylor Swift should just accept being accused of being a racist and intetionally providing the music of the alt-right, you’re a…

You’re looking at this wrong: person B in your example would be paying $525/month, plus an additional “thousands of dollars...to more than $100K”. I bet if person A asked their insurance company for a quote on the fire fighting service, they’d gladly offer it to them as well. They aren’t saying “screw everyone else”,…

This is not that new of a service: http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-richfire26oct26-story.html

Doesnt this mean that the regular fire fighters now have an easier job fighting fires. I dont think fire is a limited resource that is being stolen from public fire fighters.

It depends on how you define public resources. Water, yeah I can see that. If they provide the men, apparatus, fire retardant and other equipment and that does the job, I don’t see the beef. I don’t have the time or energy for raging for rage sake.

Hire private firefighters for tens of thousands or pay out millions in damages? That’s pretty much a no brainer from an insurance standpoint. That just makes fiscal sense. I don’t see the problem if they didn’t use public resources or hinder firefighting efforts elsewhere. Also that $1 million threshold is not that…

eh - they are shelling out money for it. If the article stated that the publicly funded firefighters were working harder on the million dollar homes than the peasant village, then let the rage commence.

Speak for yourself. Would you feel better if he’d used a Mini-14 instead?

Let’s just say Ms. Sarsour has said things about a fellow feminist that are beyond cruel. Especially for one that suffered genital mutilation as a child in Somalia.

It does when the point of disagreement is “should there be Jews,” and you damn well know it. Her attacks on Jews are less subtle that a “white lives matter” banner, or Bo Dietland Donald Trump’s comments on “Islamic Extremism.”

What’s really weird is that she has some choice comments on Jews, a major constituency in the race, and he just ignores them. It’s like running against a Klansman in Detroit and only going after him for wearing a silk tie.

So you’re running for mayor of a city with a large Jewish population and have a photo of your opponent posing happily with an infamous antisemite. Do you

Brigette Gabriel and Ayaan Hirsi Ali may disagree with your assessment.

Show me on the doll where the sand rail touched you.

I wonder if some of our SCOTUS Justices had their families brutally murdered by an AK wielding psychopath if that would have an effect on their interpretations of the Second Amendment and what type of weapons it may or may not guarantee us the right to bear.

I’ve learned about Islam. I have Muslim friends. I still think it’s a dismal thing to have rule one’s life.

So, he flirted with women and had some consensual sex with a few? I don’t feel outrage. Should I feel outrage?
