To be fair, most of our power comes from coal, not oil, but even then, it just reeks of conspiracy mongering imho.
Coal is still a fossil fuel that emits CO2, which would be used to power e cars.

Well, I thought the coal companies were different from oil companies.  Unless they aren't in which case, disregard my previous post.

I'm referring to anyone who talks about society like a fucking physical, singular object, and not ma random collection of people who happen to live with in an arbitrarily chosen geographic region of eachother. Like "you have to be a productive member of society". Or " WE must cone together to stop OUR government."

I especially hate it when people say citizen. Like law abiding citizen. What if I think the law us fucking stupid. What part of using a political designation to identify people with makes any fucking sense. Citizen is simply another word for subject, another way of saying your the govs bitch.
Seconded.

This is kind of funny. Epsecially when you consider that San Antonio has a  ton of military bases. Which nobody ever shuts up down.

Was watching the vsauce vid about names and saw this. Just more examples of UN fail. You have a right to a name because the UN says so. Not because your parents name or because, at a high enough age, you can name or rename yourself. art 8. sec. 2 is freaky as hell. So if you get amnesia, the state can "reestablish your identity? What the fuck does that even mean? It's getting harder for me to watch Vsauce because of random ass shit like this in his videos.

I think it means if you somehow forget your name, the state can assign you one for the purposes of records and prosecution. I.E. that amnesia routine isn't going to keep you out of prison because we'll just call you "Mr. Swamp" and prosecute you anyway.


There is no difference between laissez faire capitalism and crony capitalism. It is in the rational self-interest of businesses (including the government) to collude in a laissez faire system.

Coal plants throughout the US individually put more radioactive material into the environment in a month or two than Fukushima did all total.

You might recall the East Haven police scandal ("I think I'll have tacos!") where police were racially profiling against Hispanic Americans.

Well one of those cops has filed for retirement and is expecting full benefits...at the age of 32.

QuoteEAST HAVEN, Conn. (WTNH)--- One of the East Haven cops convicted of racially profiling Latinos, has filed for retirement and he says he expects full benefits. And that isn't going over very well with some people in East Haven who will be paying the bill.

An attorney for Officer Dennis Spaulding says he was an upstanding police officer during his seven years on the force.

His wife just gave birth to a baby. Those are some of the reasons they feel he is entitled to his benefits.

Some East Haven residents disagree.

There is a video of police officer Dennis Spaulding. He was one of four officers in East Haven found guilty of violating the civil rights of Latinos.

"I don't agree with the whole situation. I think everyone should be treated equally. I don't agree with racism. I think the whole situation is a little crazy," said Tim Chase, East Haven resident.

The conviction came down Monday. On Wednesday, Spaulding applied for his retirement benefits.

"I don't agree with it, said a man. "I'm sure there other others who have had it happen."

"I think that he should take his punishment, he should definitely not be offered any perks if you weren't doing the job properly," said Chase.

Spaulding has been on leave from the department since 2011. The other officers are also on paid leave before retiring or resigning.

All found guilty in a conspiracy against Latino business owners.

Speaking to News 8 by phone, the Attorney for Officer Spaulding said in part:

"I believe the evidence proved not that there was any racial profiling by Mr. Spaulding, he was simply doing the job he was sworn to do, which is to enforce the law regardless of race, creed, and ethnicity. As far as the retirement issue is concerned...this is money due to him that he earned as an employee of the East Haven Police Department. He is not asking for any money he did not appropriately earn."

Spaulding will be sentenced January 21st. His attorney says they plan to appeal the conviction.

Spaulding isn't the only one collecting money.

The other officers involved, including David Cari, all retired last year.

All of them collected salaries during the investigation and since 2012 have been collecting their pensions.

Also, the East Haven police chief  Leonard Gallo, who was suspended after the investigation launched, received his retirement funds and his annual pension of around $27,000.

I hope the smug fuck doesn't see a dime.

Stopped reading/watching as soon as I saw it was from him.  Really, has he said anything that WASN'T a fail?
