I don’t support abusive police. But, the police aren’t killing people in Baltimore. People doing illegal shit are killing people in Baltimore. Policing is partly deterrence and partly reactive; the community must decide whether, or how, they want to be policed, because they’re seeing what happens when police are…

Well, you’ve just described the Indian sub-continent in its entirety. Visit India and do see how perisistent the caste system is, how visceral religious rivalries are, how marginalized women really are, then tell me how you propose to shift the cultural and social mores of a billion-plus people.

You’re talking about cultures, religions, traditions, and class (caste) systems that have endured for millennia. Poverty and illiteracy that is incomprehensible to a westerner. There’s no analogue in America to these cultures.

I think the vast majority of players in the NFL are viewed as interchangeable pieces. I really don’t think it’s race that governs decisions so much as ability to execute within a system and not be so much of an asshole that one becomes an untenable “distraction” (the most bullshit descriptor in sports journalism). Oh,…

Yeah, not so much. I sympathize with women and kids on planes, just not with women and their blankets, full size pillows, laptops, big water bottles and huge salads, all employed simultaneously. Kiss my ass.

I wonder what people are supposed to say. “You guys are totally right, I’m trying to build a team without black dudes.”, is that what you expect?

Eh, enough with the manspreading thing. I’m 6’2”. I have a 48" chest and a 35 inch inseam. On a lot of planes these days, I cannot put my legs together; the space simply isn’t large enough. I also can’t do anything about the width of my shoulders. Space has shrunk for everyone, despite the fact that we are getting…

The only way to stop this is to eliminate the technology, and that isn’t going to happen. We have been trying to teach adolescents to make good choices since there were people, and we’ve made almost no progress. Find me a girl who doesn’t know that her nude pictures cAn be shared without her consent. You know what’s…

Actually, the parent would face prosecution, for a couple of things. Do a little reading.

That is the most patronizing thing I've seen in a while.

Try to look at it beyond slutshaming. Can boys share pictures they don’t have? Has anybody ever accused teenaged boys of possessing a surplus of common sense? Are teenage girls able to easily manipulate (and, FWIW, be manipulated by) teenaged boys? Is there any shortage of information about what usually happens with…

Apparently, having opinions that diverge from the mainstream is now bad.

I assume that if you’ve just been assaulted and are holding the guy who assaulted you, then you probably won’t have too many problems, if you don’t injure the guy. I can’t see police telling someone, “I know they assaulted you without provocation, but you were drunk, so we’re gonna let them walk...”

I have, actually, competitively and otherwise. It’s a shitty feeling. The ability though, to deliver the threat and make it tangible, is what will usually convince a knucklehead that his best bet it to stop moving and await the police. Now, that I’ve done a hundred times. (Bouncer as a kid)

The Internet has been such an advantage for the batshit crazy.

Depending on one’s hobbies growing up, grabbing someone’s arm and placing it in a position to be broken (we call them arm bars) is way, way easier than punching a dude in the face and hurting your hand (possibly) and his face (definitely). As someone once said, “It ain’t bragging if you can do it.” Aside of that, I…

Take your girl out for an afternoon and get pelted with water balloons by some douchebags. Be physically able to chase down and hold down said douchebags. Then, see whether you exercise the same restraint. At least these dudes didn’t wail like fuck on the ballon throwers, which would have been the inclination of most…

C’mon. Big city.

Fashion for both and women is skewed to the tall and thin. Models of both sexes border on unhealthy weights because of the conceit that clothes look better on tall, thin frames. People who gravitate to fashion recognize the social and physical norms of the industry, and there you go.

“Murder” is a pretty specific legal term. It’s not applied to animals. He allegedly committed animal cruelty, which is a different offense.
