Replying to bump up. This is exactly what happened. They couldn't be bothered to declare a state of emergency when their own police were attacking citizens and media, but a "handful of looters" warrants a state of emergency. This is a deliberate police action. They deliberately stepped aside and failed to do their job…

As a person who is a Missouri resident (I'm technically in the town over from Ferguson), I will like to say that Jay Nixon is full of shit and has been a pretty useless governor. He's up there with Matt Blunt in fuckery. Don't believe he wants to do the right thing. He doesn't. If he did, he would be admonishing the…

So several days of police attacking peaceful protestors gets a yawn from the state, but "a handful of looters" warrants a state of emergency declaration?

There is a special hell for people that abuse elephants...a special hell.

oh god how he is gently picking up the paws and lingering over them, as if to say, "these! lets use these!"

i think elephant is trying to say:: wake up and play with me.

The elephant is so gentle, simply wanting to wake the dog. Amazing animals. I once saw a trainer abusing an elephant for a circus that was in town. I never, ever went to a circus again. I could tell what the elephant was feeling, and couldn't believe what I was seeing. Yes, I was a sensitive little Ogre. Fuck…

What kind of an animal (human or canine) wouldn't play with an eager baby elephant? A baby elephant!!

Well hot damn! This week ended on a high note. First this asshole and then Rick Perry being indicted for abuse of power. I might be drinking in celebration tonight inside.

"He was reportedly in possession of "a pizza and a small amount of cash.""

I mean the real question here is why didn't she just leave the kids with her Nanny, Chef, or Chauffeur?? It just makes no sense.

I guess the question we should be asking is this 28-year-old mother, should she be left unattended. Doesn't look like she's mature enough to be a parent. She's being supervised today in the county jail. Hopefully she learns her lesson.

Jesus. I started letting my kid ride her bike around the block when she was six. She had to check in every 45 minutes. She's eight now, and checks in every hour to ninety minutes. She knows the rules of how to watch for traffic in our suburban neighborhood, what her boundaries are, and that she's not allowed to go…

I think you're missing the point of ImmortalAgnes's original post entirely. Sure, perhaps the use of "Truly Understands" might be overstating, but it sounds like her boyfriend now at least has a real inkling of the feeling of unease from cat-calling.

"....the baby who had been so excited by the beautiful azure waters of the Pink Flamingo Resort in Santa Rosa that he had immediately dropped all of his children off to enjoy the cool, fresh liquid as well."

What the actual fuck? I keep thinking that I am going to far when I start thinking about a bloody revolution, but it has gotten to the point where corporations openly pride themselves on fucking over the wage slave. Where you gain bragging rights for making entire families struggle just to stay afloat, and then…

For the past year my boyfriend has worked at an organization dominated by women (literally there are about a dozen guys and several hundred women). He is constantly being eye-fucked in the hallway or cat-called from a hidden car in the parking lot or asked about ("Ohh, he's hot, is he single because I will be all over…

Let's not forget their founder and CEO was vehemently against the HCA, and publicly outlined his plans to cut worker hours in order to get around the new restrictions. Or that they've illegally fired and threatened workers that were trying to unionize at their stores. Or that he's a huge right wing conservative who…

Blame the victim? Discuss.
