House Bill 2366, introduced into the House Energy and Environment Committee, would prevent any state funds from being “used, either directly or indirectly, to promote, support, mandate, require, order, incentivize, advocate, plan for, participate in or implement sustainable development.”

I'm not convinced that this is stupidity. Hanlon's razor actually cuts both ways so I'm gonna restate it

Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by cupidity

Objective reality is what you fucking trip over when you walk around with your eyes closed.

No. It isn't.  The thing you fall over is, by definition, a "thing"; it is a "chair" or a "rug" or a "dog", in other words it is an actual physical object which has a causal relationship to your fall.

"Objective reality", by contrast is a meta-concept.

I pointed that out about 20 pages back, with the Foreign Policy study on shootings in America, that found that cases where bystanders with firearms intervened were usually only successful when police officers or soldiers were the bystanders in question.

But I don't think anyone here has ever claimed otherwise.

Oh, I'm not saying any different, I just couldn't resist the delicious timing of the incident. That and I can't wait to see how people react to it. [That's people in general not people here in particular]


edit for errant hash sign

Murder has "delicious timing"?

That's quite an attachment to your agenda you have there.
Yes, you are absolutely right, I could have as easily said "unfortunate" timing.

A famous American marksman and author was shot dead yesterday on a Texas rifle range.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/most-lethal-sniper-in-us-history-chris-kyle-shot-dead-on-texas-gun-range-8478695.html

Chris Kyle, the former Navy SEAL who claimed to have been the most prolific sniper in American history, had a bounty put on his head by insurgents in Iraq, who dubbed him "The Devil of Ramadi."

He was at Rough Creek Lodge's shooting range near Forth Worth, Texas, with another man.

Both were fatally shot.

Witnesses said a gunman opened fire on the men at around 3:30 yesterday afternoon before fleeing in a pick-up truck belonging to one of the victims, according to a local newspaper.

The newspaper said a 25-year-old man was later taken into custody nearby and that charges were expected. The motive for the shooting is unclear.

So, being good with a gun AND being on a firing range STILL won't protect you from some random asshole who has a grudge . . . just saying

What seems to be missing from the corporate media reports, following Stovall's inflammatory remarks, is a recent article in a local newspaper about Stovall's use of volunteers to strengthen the number of "crime fighters" in Paragould.  Apparently, the Reserve Unit, includes Stovall's brother who is allegedly building a database on Paragould citizens who have NOT committed a crime.  Stovall has allegedly authorized his own brother to build the database on Paragould citizens, without direct oversight from a trained member of the Police Department and most importantly, without obtaining a warrant.

You want to learn the difference between Holland and The Netherlands?
Here is a vid that taught me things about my country i did not know.
Apparantly parts of the carribean are part of europe.

That was charming, if confusing. The fact that the narrator was American also threw me for a loop.
You thought that was confusing? don't watch teh england one then. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNu8XDBSn10

I didn't know that Orkney wasn't part of the UK. WTF.

Lol. Nope, it is part of the UK but it isn't apparently part of GB.
