  1. What I find curious is that if this murderer really was non-binary, he wasn't known to the club's owners. Club Q is apparently a long time (20 years), famous gay club in a medium sized town. These communities are pretty tight knit I understand. link above (newsweek).
  2. What disturbs me about crypto lately is that most charts are at historical lows (all time) and some, like EGLD look like they are the crypto equivalent of Custer's last stand. If they lose this level there's no bottom. It's a historical fact that 90% of crypto don't make it and many coins are looking like heading to oblivion soon. Remember the darlings like SOL, ADA, AVAX and FTM? There's not much support for them now. The macro economic picture is going to have to improve bigly to save them.
  3. My money is on this being a ploy by the public defender to avoid hate crimes charges. We'll see what the evidence produces in the trial. It wouldn't save him from hate crimes charges anyway. He targeted LBGT people. Anderson Lee Aldrich kept an assault-type rifle and a burner phone in a one-bedroom apartment near the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs where he lived with his mother until a couple of months ago, according to Xavier Kraus, a former neighbor in the same apartment hallway. Kraus, 23, who said he once considered Aldrich a friend, also told The Daily Beast that the 22-year-old suspect in the mass shooting at the LGBTQ club Club Q that killed five people and injured 18 more on Saturday frequently used the word “f****t.” https://www.thedailybeast.com/anderson-lee-aldrich-colorado-springs-club-q-shooting-suspect-used-anti-gay-slurs-neighbor-says
  4. Hold your fire there sunshine. I didn't know that and you are trolling by making these accusations without a link.
  5. The "unelected" EU reps are EU citizens and have the EU's interests at heart. That includes Britain.
  6. I'm bookmarking this post.
  7. Odd that you're not aware of this. It's been widely publicised. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/11/donald-trump-enemies-irs-audit https://edition.cnn.com/2022/11/13/politics/trump-irs-audits-kelly-mccabe-comey/index.html
  8. The Far Right Is Already Attacking the Club Q Hero After tackling the shooter in Colorado Springs, veteran Richard Fierro is receiving a torrent of online hate. https://www.vice.com/en/article/93avba/colorado-shooting-club-q-richard-fierro
  9. Can you put the link thing on auto next time? I support my kids. Do I know if they spend their money on drugs?
  10. There's more to this story. The kid obvious went incommunicado to avoid his dad's bigotry. I wonder if this may not have been some attempt to ingratiate himself with his father? We'll soon know because the hero was decent enough not to beat him to death.
  11. A great number, they were protesting. The entire German football team included. They seemed to care.
  12. They're fine with doing their job when it's not a religiously motivated case.
  13. Sorry, I was confused and thought this was the Brexit vote. The Brexit vote is why the Scots want independence now. Public opinion changes in 10 years.
  14. The Scots voted to stay? Link please.
  15. Link please, I provided one above. You are trolling by not providing links to claims. (not my opinion). That has been made clear in just the last few hours. I'm sure you read it.
  16. Republicans seem to regard the IRS as a public enemy. Why is that?
  17. Again, another unapproved source.
  18. That sentiment has merit. The Palestinians have been there just as long. During the Iron Age, two related Israelite kingdoms, Israel and Judah, controlled much of Palestine, Two related Israelite kingdoms, Israel and Judah, emerged during the 10th and 9th centuries BCE: Israel in the north and Judah in the south. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Palestine
  19. Link please. What you should "get" is this Of the 50 richest families, 28 mainly donate to Republicans and only seven contribute mainly to Democrats. https://www.forbes.com/sites/katiasavchuk/2014/07/09/are-americas-richest-families-republicans-or-democrats/?sh=161695cc3e83
  20. I guess that's why Trump gave a 2.5 billion tax cut to the rich, to benefit the dems? Absurd. Despite his statement in Indiana, Trump himself would almost certainly see his own tax bill shrink, possibly by more than $1 billion over time, a New York Times analysis found. https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2017/09/trump-tax-plan-benefit-rich/541584/ https://www.theguardian.com/business/2019/oct/09/trump-tax-cuts-helped-billionaires-pay-less
  21. Should we apply that logic to the world map as it was then? Give Britain back to the Vikings, perhaps? Or the Romans? Most British stock are descended from them.
  22. I think it's on topic to discuss why the bombings occurred. Israel's failure to become a secular state as per the original plan is part of that. (ref: wikipedia). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secularism_in_Israel
  23. Media watchdogs worry that his free speech maximalism will lead to a glut of “misinformation.” Safety-minded bureaucrats worry that the platform might simply break, endangering a crucial tool for emergency communications. Liberals worry about banished foes like former President Donald Trump, Rep. Marjorie Taylor-Greene and psychologist-turned-daily-wire-personality Jordan Peterson flooding back to the platform and causing mayhem, making Musk the equivalent of the EPA flunky who shuts down the containment unit in Ghostbusters. https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2022/11/23/elon-musks-new-school-tech-libertarianism-00070733
