Over the last two hours, Bernie Sanders shared Kevin Gilbertt's video live by the blockade on 1804 by Oceti Sakowin to social media, insisting that "President Obama must take all appropriate measures to protect the safety of the Native Americans protesters and their supporters who have gathered peacefully to oppose construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline."

The footage is choppy but the key communication is this:

Militarized police are firing noise cannons, concussion grenades, mace, rubber bullets, water cannons, and tear gas on peaceful protestors. The water protectors are in an enclosed space on the 1804 bridge over the river, so the crowd must either inhale the tear gas or trample each other in retreat. The police have blocked off emergency vehicle access to the water defenders. With temps at 0 celsius, the water cannons may cause hypothermia.

Here is the video on FB, not yet available on YT.

OfficeMax/Depot Accused of Running a Real-World Tech Support Scam

I remember when this "service" was launched at OfficeMax/Depot back when I worked there. Their free PC Checkup software begins its test by asking if the customer experiences any pop-ups, slow performance, etc. If they answer "yes" then it runs a fake scan and falsely reports malware detection, after which the corporation offers to charge for repairs.

They also run a racket where their sales staff ask a series of "qualifying" questions to potential PC purchasers. If the customer doesn't agree to buy 1) a desktop 2) a monitor 3) Microsoft Office 4) Norton Antivirus 5) a PC "protection" insurance plan 6) and an accessory, employees are encouraged to "check in the back" and return to tell the customer that they've none of the machines in stock.

F*cking deplorable.

That story might as well be in the Fake News thread. It's only making it's round on alt right sites but nothing official or outside of that little bubble.

Yeah, you will start noticing how certain topics only appear on conservative/alternative media sites.

Also, can people stop using the term "Alt-Right" in response to everything? They are a very small group that doesn't even have a particularly coherent ideology.

It's the same thing when you lump all feminists together with radical feminists.

When I do that I'll agree.

oh you mean like all the time.

*looks at every post Goofle has made about feminism*

Glad we're agreed then.

That story is fishy btw. I'm still looking but it's hard to find anything about when the law was passed, just reports about how it's so unsuccessful and feminists are dumb.
