Will the white leaders Gordon Ramsay and Tom Brady please address the fact that white people are murdering innocents at an alarming rate and are a threat to the civilized world please
Mah, i think i should just unlike all the news sites in my facebook and like like that memes pages and porn star pages. Sometimes it hurts to know :/

They are reportedly alleging the murder in Chapel Hill was not a hate crime but a parking space dispute. We have the same issue in the building complex i live in so i guess i will be gunned down tomorrow. LOGIC.

Oh noes .

I can believe it was for that reason as petty as it is but the fact that the victims were muslim is still pretty suspect.
Apparently the guy was a from the hardcore "ATHEISTS ARE THE REAL OPPRESSED PEOPLE" sect of internet atheism.
Also compare reactions to this, to the Charley Hebdo shooting.
Bottom Line, world is awful. Have some Penguins in sweaters to ease our existence:
They are on sweaters to avoid them trying to clean the deadly oil spill from their own feathers isn't it?
One reason not to live in Kansas…..if you're gay or trans.

Three Muslim Students killed in a shooting in North Carolina.
Brought me to tears reading this and looking at those wedding photos shit is heartbreaking.
The sad thing is people have been honestly killed over dumber things.
The sadder thing is the "parking dispute" is probably just an excuse.

Wow, this man is specifically targeting homosexual, bisexual and transgender workers.
"Brownback, a vocal defender of a ban in the state constitution on same-sex marriage, issued a new order reaffirming the state's commitment to prohibit discrimination based on race, color, ethnicity, national origin, gender or religion."
So, according to the governor of Kansas, sexual orientation and gender identity are worth discriminating against. Good thing he was given a position of power.

keep in mind they were killed execution style. that's not something you just accidentally do one day when someone takes your parking spot

Pretty much the French sure as hell didn't go around putting people to the guillotine accidentally during the Revolution.

Good thing he'll be out of power before too long…...hopefully.
I think one of the worst things we can do is take advanced conclusions and deriving hate from it (The second part is the important one). Thinking conclusions is fine but don't think let hate be born out of it.
This is a good article.

while i'm still saddened by this, I'm a bit annoyed that all this happened because of something as stupid as having parking space.

Yeah because that was totally what it was about.
Ok, no. Forget it. This would only end badly. Just look at the evidence guys.
Those kids look so much like various people at my (second) undergrad college, it really fucking sucks.
Lots of bubbly young girls wearing hijabs because mom swats them with a broom rushing around.
Hey, it's getting more attention in the press. There was even a little article about it in my newspaper today. There wasn't any front pag3 references so I had to flip/hunt through the pages to find it but, hey, it's something.
[Hide][/hide]
So do you wanna know why some misguided Muslim youth turn extreme?
My people are being murdered close to home.
This could have easily been my shy, kind hearted husband who does a lot for the community.
Those three who were killed could have been me.
In all honesty, the thought revolving around my mind is "why do people hate us enough to kill us?"
Why must I live my life now knowing that some people are out to get me?
The young, misguided ones would be angry, and their feelings would turn to revenge. And that's how it's all started.
The victims of chapel hill were "in the wrong place at the wrong time". What a fucking weak ass defense. The lawyer might as well be on his knees begging for leniency. THE VICTIMS WERE AT THIER OWN HOME

What does that mean?
What does that mean?
Like he had them lineup, probably kneeling and methodically went down the line shooting them dead.

Oregon Governor John Kitzhaber is resigning, for real this time. He's been sunk by a scandal where his fiancee was paid large amounts of money to lobby him over environmental legislation, similar to what happen to Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell in 2013.
Due to Oregon's succession law, this makes Oregon Secretary of State Kate Brown Governor once the resignation goes into effect, and she will be the first openly LGBT Governor in US History (She's Bi).

In other news, formal charges have been filed against Argentina President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner over covering up Iran's role in the 1994 bombing of a Jewish Community center in 1994. These were the same charges prosecutor Alberto Nisman was planning to file against the president before he "Commmited Suicide" a few weeks ago right before he was going to testify.

in the upcoming days we remember the Bombing of Dresden. One great tragedy of the WWII:
http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/bombing_of_dresden.htm
Also, the letter of Vonnegut telling about the incident and that would be the precedent of Slaughterhouse five:
http://www.lettersofnote.com/2009/11/slaughterhouse-five.html
Shameless plug of a guy that translated it to spanish (lol):
http://terrar.io/2013/06/la-carta-de-kurt-vonnegut-que-precedio-a-slaughterhouse-five/
There is a speech of Vonnegut that is also a re-telling of the tragedy but i can't find it online. It is in a book published by Vintage (i think) tho.
Edit:
HOLY…
^ I have only seen one mention of this, because it's Not terrorism after all >_>
Foiled plots don't get much play. The public is more attracted (affected) by tragedy and we're all guilty of it to certain degrees.
Foiled plots involving Muslims make breaking news and go worldwide, much the contrary.

No one has put thin one in here and i waited for it.
The Pasco Shooting.
Mexican Government condemned it but that son of bitch that's guilty of millions of deaths doesn't deserver to be linked to.
Edit: There is video of the shooting but i'm not linking that.

Some but not most. How many of these foiled plots broke the news and went worldwide, minus the shoe bomber and underwear bombers of course (those are the easier ones)? I only know about most of these from google searches. Overall, foiled plots don't get much play because we either don't know about them or because what I said above.
Though, I do find it disoncerting that when people think of terrorist plot they automatically picture "Muslim". Yes, I know the list I provided specifically named Islamic terrorist attacks for the purpose of my question but still…this has lead to the reason why most foiled terrorist plots that do make breaking news involve Muslims.

This one is about a NYtimes investigation on Illicit properties of mexican bureaucracy in USA. It may sound like your run of the mill corrupt government rumor but it has touched even the president since there are documents that prove that a chinese group that was given a multimillion train licitations gifted him and various other high level officiales free houses before they were awarded it. The Scandal was so huge (a few months back) that they took the licitation from the chinese. A few days back they confirmed they had lost the licitation. Chinese aren't happy in two ways: It is a huge loss of money (they are suing for money) and it was going to be a special licitation since it would prove the new kind of business China is doing with governments all around the world using their own material and their own industry. Now it's all gone. I reckon it will send ripples time after this.
Edit:
Kakuhido was founded in 2006 by Katsuhiro Furusawa, who began reading the “Manifesto of the Communist Party,” an 1848 classic by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, after being dumped by his girlfriend. He eventually came to the conclusion that being unpopular with the opposite sex was a class issue, fueling his anti-Valentine message.
wut
Despite the Marxist rhetoric, Furusawa has since stepped down as head of the revolutionary alliance, posting distinctly un-Marxist photos of his new car and, in a Parthian shot, boasting that “thanks to our actions I purchased a Mercedes.”

One does wonder how much of a backlash there will be following this event.
http://news.yahoo.com/greeks-brim-pride-country-totters-edge-081920496–business.html
The mood is in stark contrast to 2012 when panic over a potential Greek euro zone exit prompted Greeks to vote in a pro-bailout government despite popular discontent with the program. Two and a half years later, the public mood has shifted from anger to the point where many Greeks feel they have nothing more to lose.
I think Greece's economic policy is officially 'Screw It, We Can Only Go Up From Here'.
"One of the first things we learn is you don't put a witness on the stand that you know is lying," said third-year law student Christina Vogel
If a 3rd year law student knew that…
McCulloch has acknowledged calling witnesses whom he said "clearly lied" to the grand jury, including a woman who claimed to have seen Brown charge at Wilson.
Who would invite such a garbage "prosecutor" to speak at their school anyway? Even if you throw ethics aside, just on job credibility alone, he has no merit being there.
If a 3rd year law student knew that…
Generally I'm pretty sure most people with common sense know that, but then again I'm not a law student
@Purple:

There's a reason they have to be "taught" you don't put a lying witness on the stand.
Here's some bullshit, brought to you by Florida.
