    More to the point, you are making a positive claim, so is up to you to provide evidence that women are more exposed to porn than they are to romantic fiction....

    So when he campaigns in the Red States does he say “You guys like watching NASCAR, passing snakes around in church and marrying your cousins at 14, right? I can so relate!”

    It’s so much better to be loaded with gelt than guilt!

    ...Really? No one here gets what must have been a deliberate joke by Pantone?

    Rose Quartz coordinates wonderfully with Pearl. But it clashes with Diamond Yellow.

    >>>The statement also claims that the police officers thought the suspect “appeared to be over 18 years old and about 185 pounds” and was pulling out a real gun. It was later confirmed that Rice was playing with a toy gun.<<<

    The commenters here impress me less and less. Again, they’ve missed the real issue. Which is that the house was allowed to stay open after a rape and evidence of a culture that made rape very likely, but has been closed down after a video of what seems to be - the latest news is that all participants were volunteers

    >>Even if it was, this is still revolting and disgusting behavior.<<

    >>>To clarify you’ve gotten all your poicing training from a video<<

    >>>These are the men that were raised to have sex as soon as puberty hit because “it’s what men do.”<<<

    >>That in and of itself is a violation.<<

    My gawd.... Mako Makanshoku is real and she’s middle aged...

    >>No. The difference between me and a cop is that cops are trained a hell of a lot more than I am in a lot of situations.<<

    “If you were smart...”

    Well, you can argue that, yes. But then someone with a brain would say “What about the UK?” Because British gangs clearly want guns, but they can’t get them. They’re in such short supply that criminals have to rent guns for a few hours from other criminals. That’s if they can get them at all, which usually they can’t.

    I think people are missing the real issue here.From The Washington Post:

    >>Firing on someone before they get into a position to fire - barrel of the weapon pointed at the police officers - is tremendously wrong.<<

    >>And clearly he didn’t know it was a gun, because it wasn’t a functioning gun.<<<

    >>If cops are acting like anybody off the street would, they’re hopefully doing their jobs wrong.<<

    This posts in this tread really are depressing - they’ve entirely missed the real arguments against the department and the two officers and concentrated on ridiculous strawmen like - literally “No one would have been alarmed if a random white guy was pointing what looked like a real gun at people!”
