Bald Eagle Gets Trapped In Car, Becomes Perfect
Symbol For America in 2016: "The bald eagle is a proud and noble creature that the United States chose long ago to be its national symbol. But this particular bald eagle, trapped in the grille of a car in Florida, has become a much more appropriate symbol for America in 2016. Ladies and gentlemen, start your meme engines." See: http://gizmodo.com/bald-eagle-gets-t...bol-1787575395 And the memes have already begun: Last edited by AnimeFan188; 2016-10-09 at 15:05. |

your last president while no genius at least seem to have put the economy in the right track. And remain (outsider perceptive) relatively free of scandal, especially compare to his predecessors. So how the heck did you guys ended that guy as president?

"I will murder all the criminals!" is a very compelling rallying cry. The fact that carrying it out without due process means loss of innocent lives and cause abuse of the system, doesn't change the narrative being easy to understand.
For example, my home was broken into once. And back then I would certainly wish the burglar be drawn and quartered in a literal sense. To feel that you have been wronged by criminals can make one more receptive of violent retaliation. And this guy is having "revenge" as his platform. It is visceral and appealing.

That's insane. Signed and shared the link. Whatever your politics, you should recognize the first amendment as one of the most wonderful things about America and protest about it being trampled on like this.
I hope whatever footage she taped before her arrest is released. That should help her cause.

Original video: My face during her speech: Then my face when they asked student who disagreed with her to actually apologize to her: Thew only thing that makes this worse is that this speech was held in College campus... one of the temples of knowledge... I am only glad that her suggestion was welcomed with so much laugh. But I have to wonder what kind of damage can this women do if she ever becomes some major figure in Government one day.. or have the same influence in it via third party means... Also the fact that she says all that and use her smartphone after that... |
