Shooting at Muhammad cartoon contest in Texas

Baron and Quant should have a TV show.
They could call it "Fred and Ethel Mertz."

 

It really was a fine piece of work. Perhaps, like Picasso from 1901 to 1904, Baron is entering a new thematic phase of his work. I know many join me in awaiting Baron's "rose period" with great eagerness.

 

Notice how nobody has actually had an answer. Discrimination or not?

 

I answered ... but it was rather nuanced.

 

How is making things equal end up discriminatory against the people who have enjoyed favored status?

 

How can you expect Baron to call it discrimination? His blind spot for anything that goes with his worldview is the largest of even the most dedicated ignorant activist on either side of the political spectrum that I've seen. Bigger than even the biggest Bernie or Ron Paul supporter. He doesn't even think WWE wrestlers are being exploited.

 

Actually, the WWE is one filed lawsuit away from having their longtime business model with their performers being so-called "independent contractors" from being totally destroyed. They've had some recent disputes with several performers who have left the company, where those performers' lawyers have threatened to challenge their "independent contractor" agreements. The WWE has quickly settled those disputes because they know they're on borrowed time with their longtime arrangements.

But you knew all this, right? Or are you just talking out of your ass, as usual?

 

Eh, she asked for it:

 

So of the four plotters, two were killed in anti-terrorism battles (including one by a drone) and the other two face criminal charges.

Actually it sounds like Obungo's war on terrorism is going pretty good.
