    I'd seen the story, but hadn't really followed it. It wasn't until today that I actually read the victim's impact statement. Simply one of the most powerful things I've read in years.
    That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

      After reading that, I caught myself fantasizing a little too hard that we still had the Code of Hammurabi. I was thinking we could start off by castrating the father and son. Just take both of these worthless sh*tstains out of the gene pool for good.

        Wrong. If you pocket the $50 they've got sitting out on their kitchen counter, it doesn't mean you hate them.

        When Goldman Sachs bilks senior citizens out of their retirement money, they aren't doing it cause they hate old people.

          Brian Banks, a linebacker with the Falcons, is pretty upset by the Stanford swimmer's sentencing too. It's too light. Banks spent 5 years in prison and 5 years on probation for rape. The difference being Banks was wrongfully convicted and had his conviction overturned when he obtained an audio recording of his accuser admitting that she made a false accusation.

            As long as it stays just that: a fantasy.

            Vengeance is not justice. Aeschylus was writing about this 2500 years ago. It's one of the marks of civilization.

            We all enjoy seeing the bad guy get blown up in action movies, but the effectiveness and satisfaction is just that: it's a movie.

                The scary refugees (OOOGA BOOGA!!!) are already here Flag. They're far better vetted than you think (to the point that you almost wonder why they even bother applying for asylum in the US), and you can politely go fck yourself for posting that reactionary racist horseshiat as a serious "source".

                  Well to be fair, this country has gone to sh-t since we let in the Irish.

                  It's fun to watch the expansion of whiteness. 250 years ago it was just the English. 200 years ago the French, Germans and Nordics got in. 150 years ago the Irish. 100, Italians and Slavs. 50, European Jews.

                  In 50 years Latinos will be "white." The terra incognito of The Scary Other is getting smaller and smaller. We better find alien life soon because we're running out of people to hate.

                      Even the ones crossing the southern border illegally?

                      I have no problem with folks who follow the process to come in. They have a plan and a goal.
                      I worry about the ones that don't follow the process.
                      Especially the ones that also have a plan and a goal.

                          Kep, Flag does have a point. You don't see a lot of (as you'd describe them) knuckledraggin' Bible-clingin' southern Christian herp-a-derps lighting daughters on fire of late.

                              He doesn't have a point at all.

                              The fight is against religious fanatics, and the ignorant mindset that equates all believers of THE OTHER EVIL FAITH with fanatics. These aren't normal Muslims any more than normal Christians are the WBC.

                                I'm sure the Body Count for the two major evangelical faiths is either even or the Christians have the lead because they had a 600 year head start and they got to flintlock rifles first.

                                Watching Muslim crazies now is a window onto what Christian crazies were like 500 years ago.

                                It's not the trivia of faith but the extremity of faith that is the monster.
