    This just boils my blood! yeah, I wasn't there, I don't know exactly what happened... but I have eyes, there's a video, and I think it's clear that this "policeman", and I use the term loosely, is guilty of manslaughter in the least! Most probably murder. There are laws against shooting unarmed civilians in war, but for the police to shoot a guy begging not to be shot? What did the "policeman" think?? That the guy crying on the ground was going to whip out an AK-47?? This is bullshit! Although, I think he told the truth when he said he was doing what he was trained to do. Also, perhaps he had a good lawyer. https://www.azcentral.com/story/n... There were apparently 6 police officers. Guess 6 police is not enough to take down a sobbing man on the ground without shooting him? BS. Oh, and get this: The judge did not allow jurors to hear about an etching on the dust cover of the rifle Brailsford used to shoot Shaver, which said "You're f--ked," because he felt it was prejudicial.

    I was only 12 years old when the Rodney King beating happened and even at that age I couldn't understand and found unconsciable the officers were acquitted when they were clearly beating Rodney when it most definetly was no neccesary (I mean, did I miss something??).  I find just as unconsciounable cases like the Duke lacross and Darren Wilson where people were so eager for mob justice against these rotten slimy good for nothing raaaaaaacists before anyone really knew what really happened.  And then the media/celebs had the nerve to treat Michael Brown like he was some heroic martyr!



    OTOH, here you have a geninue, honest to goodness case of racist cops that tasered/shot a 68 year old retired Marine who wasn't bothering anyone and the LifeAlert still recording clearly showed the cops had both racist and hostle/bully intent...and yet despite all this damning evidence, the "cops" got off scot-free.  Yet where was all the media/celeb attention for this geninue victim?

    Lame, robbing someone for their shoes... and exactly how are sneakers (or most any shoe) valued at $2000? Someone actually paid a retail price of $2000?!


    yup

    Sneaker collectors are WAY more serious about their hobby than any of us are about game collecting.



    It is an entirely different world.

    Not sure if you can quantify them being “more serious” about collecting. 



    But I get the point you are making.

    I tried cheap sneakers for awhile, but they start hurting my feet after the break-in period. While I'm not dropping $100+ on some kicks, I do try to get some quality ones.

    That's probably a good substitute for what I meant.

  • People are shitty! Women goes to restaurant, poops, flings it. And, we're talking about a place where people take their kids, this isn't exactly the Bada Bing (even then, no)!

    image sharing

    "In a statement, the fast-food chain said that they didn't let the woman use the bathroom because of "past behavior and out of concern for the immediate safety of team members and guests in the restaurant."
  • Anyone ever watch The Texas Chainsaw Massacre? It was fiction... but you know what they say about art and life  



    A Texas courtroom erupted in chaos after a jury returned a guilty verdict against a man accused of fatally beating and dismembering a 35-year-old man before burning his amputated and charred limbs on a barbecue grill. A jury took about three hours to before finding Daniel Moreno Lopez guilty of murder in the 2014 killing of Jose Luis Menchaca.



    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/daniel-moreno-lopez-courtroom-chaos-after-guilty-verdict-in-grisly-dismemberment-murder/



    After the verdict was read Tuesday, Lopez began to flail and was forced from the courtroom by Bexar County sheriff deputies. Lopez's mother collapsed sobbing to the floor of a hallway, according to MySanAntonio.com, repeatedly screaming, "No!"



    Uhhh, not trying to be unsympathetic, but how about "NO!" for the guy that was cooked... :/
  • You know those asshole trolls that you just want to punch in the face... well, it looks like at least one of them is finally going to jail! yup

    img host

    Mr Burt added: 'We would also like to say that our dealings with Facebook have compounded our misery.'

    Well yeah, you can't expect Facebook to be helpful, sheesh...



    Speaking outside court after the hearing, Hind said he was 'deeply sorry' for his actions and that he had done them 'for attention'. Describing how he was suffering from mental health issues and was 'highly intoxicated' at the time of the offences, he said: 'All I can say to the families for the actions I have committed is sorry, that is all I can say – sorry.

    Of course, once you're caught - it's never your fault, it's always drugs or "health issues"... hope the asshole spends a long time in jail!

    But then how are you supposed to know which ones ARE quality ones?  I'm not really any kind of fashion bug (shoot I'm very much a homebody and don't go hardly anywhere usually other than the grocery store and sometimes library) so as long as they get the job done and I don't have to deal with annoying laces (YES I can tie my shoes if need be!!) then it's all good  



     
  • Every now and then, you read a story that warms your heart and you think "perhaps, perhaps there is hope for us after all..." Such as when a homeless vet spent his last $20 to help strangers, and they in turn did him a great kindness and raised some $400,000 to help him! Of course, that feel-good story is a chimera because the couple gave the man $75,000 and spent the rest on themselves including purchasing a brand new BMW!! So yeah, I'm still sticking to cats >> people   Although, there is a sliver lining, since he WILL receive his money after all and hopefully the two Ponzis will go to jail (although to be fair, they claim no wrong doing and the investigation is ongoing, but it sure sounds like they're scammers)!

    https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/06/us/gofundme-homeless-man.html

    yup

    The authorities executed the search warrant a day after a court hearing in New Jersey in which a judge expressed frustration that the couple's lawyer did not show an accounting of the money raised and if it had been spent. Mr. D'Amico and Ms. McClure did not appear at the hearing, and their lawyer, Ernest Badway, said the couple would invoke their Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination and not produce the financial information requested by the judge, Paula T. Dow of the Burlington County Superior Court.



    Stealing from vets... wow, it really doesn't get any lower!

    Try some out? Get recommendations? It's not that hard, and your feet will thank you, especially in middle age.



    Fashion has nothing to do with it. It's about shoe quality.



     
  • Remember that "feel good" story... it was all a lie. A Ponzi scheme. So, anyone here surprised?

    https://www.npr.org/2018/11/15/668454611/new-jersey-couples-gofundme-campaign-to-help-homeless-man-was-predicated-on-a-li

    https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/15/nyregion/homeless-man-couple-gofundme-scam.html

    yup

    "She did not run out of gas on the I-95 off-ramp and he did not spend his last $20 to help her. Rather, D'Amico, McClure and Bobbitt conspired to pass off a fake feel-good story that would compel donors to contribute to their cause. And it worked in a very big way."

    Pretty sure thats not a Ponzi scheme.  They just lied to make a quick buck and got out of hand.  Im pretty sure a Ponzi scheme has to do with investments and paying out larger dividends with only the money you get from new clients.  So you need to keep getting new investors.

    Yeah... different things. Ponzi scheme is much more complicated I think. I always think of it as a different pyramid scheme.... but yeah. Still a scam. 



    But it's one heck of a scam!!! I didn't hear of it at the time, but reading about it now it's not too surprising. I actually looked up some different Gofundme's, haha. 





    Back why I don't like people:







    Who are the people paying for this kid to make "music"?



    WHO is going to his shows? This confirms society is crumbling and youth are degenerating at an alarming rate.
  • As someone who takes music seriously as their job, you must realize that music doesn't mean art anymore. In this case, its to create a mood to party and fuck the opposite sex, or alter your consciousness with some sort of substance legal or not.
  • I like the mumble rap stuff. It's definitely new and interesting. While Xan isn't that great, I don't hate him. And I'm perfectly fine with all those doing it. But, others do it better.



    Just to be clear, I'm a black metal elitist and funeral doom worshipper.
  • Mumble rap lol

    I've honestly never thought of music like that.
