"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

White County Inmates Given Reduced Jail Time If They Get A Vasectomy - NewsChannel 5 Nashville ( http://tinyurl.com/y9tjez24 )

Quote
Inmates in White County, Tennessee have been given credit for their jail time if they voluntarily agree to have a vasectomy or birth control implant, a popular new program that is being called "unconstitutional" by the ACLU.

On May 15, 2017 General Sessions Judge Sam Benningfield signed a standing order that allows inmates to receive 30 days credit toward jail time if they undergo a birth control procedure.

Russian censorship law bans proxies and VPNs
It's also requiring that you link your phone number to chat apps.


QuotePresident Putin has signed a law that, as of November 1st, bans technology which lets you access banned websites, including virtual private networks and proxies. Internet providers will have to block websites hosting these tools. The measure is ostensibly meant to curb extremist content, but that's just pretext -- this is really about preventing Russians from seeing content that might be critical of Putin, not to mention communicating in secret.

Cain

Well, lets be honest here, VPNs are going to be banned for people not hacking on behalf of the Russian state.

There will be loopholes, and people will find them.  Without a Great Firewall of China style system, you can only do so much.

Quote"Do you worry 100 years from now someone's going to try to take that memorial down like they're trying to remake our memorials today?" Kilmeade asked Zinke, who is attending a ceremony in Shanksville on Monday.

"Well I'm one that believes that, you know, we should learn from history," Zinke replied. "And I think our monuments are part of our country's history. We can learn from it.

"Since we don't put up statues of Jesus, everyone's going to fall morally short. And I think reflecting on our history, both good and bad, is a powerful statement and part of our DNA."

sorry if this is the wrong spot

I think society's optimal response to this kind of bullshit is to call their bluff and instead of taking the statues down start putting up commemorative statues of people who either deserted and/or stole supplies from the confederate army because that's history too, and it's worth commemorating. (on a similar note we also need statues of axis deserters)

Also someone needs to spin the last part as Zinke promoting idolatry

With a little luck it'll be cracked in a day

(with a lot of luck no one will adopt it, though I'm not holding my breath on that one, big content has a stranglehold on seemingly everything these days. Death to the MPAA! Death to the RIAA! Death to ALL supporters of intellectual property law! Popular culture to the people!)

I feel weird that I'd rather have Luthe Strange in office than Ray Moore, in that I'm agreeing with Trump.


Or is having an unhinged assbat in the senate somehow better than a guy that will rubber stamp Trump's whims?

Cain

What does Trump find so objectionable about Moore?  I mean, his views aren't that far from Trump's, if he's posting Britain First videos.
