Oh, look! A passive aggressive christian that uses too many exclamation marks!

“Violently resisting “The Man””?????

It took Curry a second to understand what she meant. Then the old Bible stories rushed to his mind. Like when Jesus healed the lame man at the Pool of Bethesda, that man had to pick up his mat and walk. If he believed he was healed, he needed to show it.

Tells you everything you need to know about Jackson’s ignorant, divisive coaching style. Does this not remind people of Jim Jones leading his flock?

You know what would’ve happened if he’d just gotten off the plane and “pursue[d] [his] legal remedies later?” He’d have gotten his $800 or whatever and his lawyer would’ve been like “yeah dude, nothing I can do here,” and that would’ve been the end of it.

And I cringe to live in your ideal world, which we already do live in, where the corporate thirst for every last penny of profit is more important than a doctor trying to get home to his patients, where rules are more important than morality.

“[A]n immature and stupid response that literally could not have ended any other way.” What an impressively succinct encapsulation of exactly the type of reflexive bootlickery Burneko denounced in his piece. And the nice thing is, you can make literally the same exact argument in favor of literally any act of defiance…

Falling in line every time JUST MOVES THE FUCKING LINE.

“Shrug! THE FINE PRINT IS PARAMOUNT! He would have gotten some monetary compensation! He should have accepted his fate without complaint!”

Counter counterpoint: he has made all his legal remedies more valuable and effective by raising the stakes.

Your rights were basically forfeit the second you purchased the ticket. Passengers agree to being bumped (with compensation) whether they read the fine print or not. Dude probably should have read the fine print. The police shouldn’t have body slammed him.

What’s worse are the losers spending their day defending those policies all over these articles.

The American people, especially the honest folk of middle America, are not kind decent folk. Well, they may be, until they encounter hierarchy.

Then they become craven asskissing bootlickers. We are a nation of joiners and toadies, and I will put a huge amount of money on a very strong correlation with joining a…

This is the same argument for people who argue in favor of management over labor. Theoretically, only a tiny, fraction of a percent of people should be making those arguments, yet, anecdotally, it is an alarmingly large percentage.

This whole “OBEY ANY AND EVERY ORDER YOU ARE GIVEN OR YOUR HUMAN RIGHTS ARE FORFEIT” deal aboard airliners is getting really old.

>.> You seriously gate-keeping Mike Fahey right now? GTFO.

Haha!

Shame the Cavaliers don’t have any depth to pick up the slack. You would think signing old guys at the expense of developing young dudes in November-January would work out in May and June.

Go Raptors.

Considering you can build a pretty damn good 60hz gaming computer for well under $700, that’s an almost impossible sell.
