Damn

Ya beat me to it.

Dozens killed in stampede at Soleimani's funeral

I wonder if they're considered "collateral damage?"

No reported casualties from what I'm reading, a very limited and ineffective strike

Won't stop the white house from storming forward into certain war.

jwb 01-07-2020 07:05 PM

They won't imo

Both are too self interested and yet weak to make such a move

Aka SHOOK.

A body count really isn't the point. If your white sneakers have been stepped on in the club a nigga's gotta show their strap.

I mean Russia is always like a week away from declaring bankruptcy and China's military spending is just the hedgehog strategy of making sure they can defend if America ever invades for some stupid reason. And yet nations have been declaring idiotic wars for chest beating reasons for thousands of years so who knows.

I mean **** America's entire arsenal at this point is based around fighting 3rd world insurgencies rather than 1st world nations with actual armies but do you think they'll say a word of that when it comes time to flex?

^ Both of those observations are so true elphenor.
Obviously the least important, but somehow most irritating element is the kind of bored sing-song voice Trump puts on for those officially-mandated readouts.

Definitely amusing to see a billionaire try to buy the nomination and fail. Hope he sinks a **** load into his worthless campaign.

I’m reporting this ****. You’re just following me around harassing me, making personal attacks, and ****ting on me every time I try to make a positive contribution. Plus, it’s not even banter. I’m not even responding but you keep picking at me.

grindy 01-09-2020 10:33 AM

Alright then.
Batlord, time to chill the **** out.
I'm in a good mood so you have one post to whine about mods being unfair and then shut up about it.
If the harassment continues, you'll have to chill out even more due to being banned.

Buried in a report last month by the Bureau of Labor of Statistics on occupational fatalities was this tragic fact: More people are killing themselves in the workplace than ever before. The number of such suicides for 2018 was 304 — an 11 percent increase from the year before and the highest number since the bureau began tracking the data 26 years ago.
Companies are struggling with how to respond.
Of course, the companies offer crisis aversion instead of changing the ****ty oppressive work culture that leaves people with no time or energy to work on anything personal.

Lucem Ferre 01-10-2020 03:58 AM

Remember at Geek Squad guy commit suicide and they held a candle light vigil for him at the building and I told this gal that if I kill myself don't ever do that for me because it's probably the reason why.

Florida women in the news...

Florida woman accused of trying to pee on cop, running down man with her BMW

Florida woman, 59, tossed bucket of human feces in landlord's face

Rancid. I'd rather be beaten unconscious than that.

Iran denies it fired a missile to down Ukrainian jet, calls for evidence

Not to get all Merit on your asses, but inb4 it comes out that the US downed the plane to Lusitania their way into an invasion.

jwb 01-10-2020 09:39 AM

Wouldn't Merit have blamed Israel instead?

Which actually sorta makes sense since they really want this war to happen more than anyone.

"accused of trying to pee on cops" = drunk broad pissed herself while being handcuffed and cops threw an extra charge at her for being a dirty piss stained nuisance.
