Not to got OT so early but just heard a press conference by police regarding the Dorner stand off. They said “burners” are incendiary CS gas grenades and they believe it possible that those may have caused the fire but they are still investigating.

Arpaio is just getting like minded people in the schools, people that he can trust and relate to.

The Nine Most Insane Quotes From The NRA’s New Apocalyptic Op-Ed
Wednesday afternoon, National Rifle Association Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre published a bizarre, paranoid screed on the Daily Caller outlining a series of wildly implausible scenarios in which (among other things) the police will cease to exist because of the deficit and al-Qaeda will provoke the government into stealing your guns. Here are the nine most absurd quotes from LaPierre’s piece:
Cutting it down to my favorite 2:
6. Thanks To Obama, There Will Soon Be No Cops: “Meanwhile, President Obama is leading this country to financial ruin, borrowing over a trillion dollars a year for phony “stimulus” spending and other payoffs for his political cronies. Nobody knows if or when the fiscal collapse will come, but if the country is broke, there likely won’t be enough money to pay for police protection. And the American people know it.”
8. It’s Just That The Collapse Of Civilization Is Right Around The Corner: “We, the American people, clearly see the daunting forces we will undoubtedly face: terrorists, crime, drug gangs, the possibility of Euro-style debt riots, civil unrest or natural disaster.”
DOGS AND CATS LIVING TOGETHER! MASS HYSTERIA!

Arpaio is our state’s embarrassment, but, the local media here is really pissing him off, they keep asking the actual lawman who nearly beat Joke in the last election for soundbites whenever there is a matter involving actual law. The only reason Arpaio won was that there are still voters out there who managed to live past the age of 85.

Ayn Rand’s relation with communism was very similar to the relation of a Satanist with Christianity.
In both cases, the underlying world view is accepted, and then all of the more superficial elements of dogma are reversed.

Raising the minimum wage will put a few more dollars into the pockets of consumers at the low end of the wage scale who turn around and pump most of their cash right back into their local economy. Businesses do better when there are more consumers who have disposable income to spend. To simply look at a rise in minimum wage as a detriment to business’ profits is typical half-baked economics from the GOP.

O’friggin’bligatory.
There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged . One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

That’s because they were. Ayn Rand’s entire worldview was fucked-up.
if we call it “objectivism”, it’s an esoteric hobby philosophy adhered to by very few
if we call it “selfishness”, it’s endemic in the human tribe
what the difference is in practice, though, i couldn’t tell you

About 2 a.m., a citizen reported finding property belonging to Dorner on a street near Lindbergh Field, not far from the scene of the attempted boat theft. The property included a briefcase and Dorner’s LAPD badge.

The objectivist believes that selfishness is a virtue.
Most ordinary selfish people aren’t willing to go that far.
This makes a surprising difference in practice —- the ‘greed is good’ business in the 80s set the stage for a large chunk of the troubles we face.

Tear gas grenades are incendiary devices. It’s not their main purpose, but it is something they are.

Raising the minimum wage will put a few more dollars into the pockets of consumers at the low end of the wage scale who turn around and pump most of their cash right back into their local economy. Businesses do better when there are more consumers who have disposable income to spend. To simply look at a rise in minimum wage as a detriment to business’ profits is typical half-baked economics from the GOP.
Henry Ford may have been an anti-Semitic crypto-Nazi scrote of the first water, but he understood at least that much.
I wonder if the trust fund plonkers wailing doom and gloom over an increase to the minimum wage imagine that the extra lolly will be stashed away in the Caymans, because that’s totally what they would do.

Too much money is being made by BS financial crap like derivatives etc. Thus, many of the uber-wealthy (even those that work for a living) have absolutely no appreciation that widespread demand is a good thing to have in an economy.

For first time in U.S. history, Republicans filibuster new defense secretary
Republicans demanding answers from President Barack Obama’s pick to head the Pentagon forced Senate leaders Wednesday to delay a vote, throwing Chuck Hagel’s confirmation into doubt.
Senators James Inhofe and Lindsey Graham have expressed strong opposition to rushing Hagel’s confirmation process, and after Hagel was narrowly approved by the Senate Armed Services Committee on Tuesday, the Republicans insisted they would try to block a vote in the full Senate.
“This is the first time in the history of our country that a presidential nominee for secretary of defense has been filibustered. What a shame,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said on the floor of the chamber.

This might seem to be a stretch but calling it “incendiary tear gas” is a bit misleading since tear gas is by nature, incendiary.

Can’t wait until Valentine’s Day is over. The holiday itself doesn’t bother me but the advertising blitz on the radio makes it unbearable. The hype is worse than Christmas which at least has a “peace and good will” vibe thrown in. This Valentines stuff is just spend, spend, spend.

This article omits the fact that the Senate committee vote on Hagel was party-line.
Another instance of ‘there is no such thing as a moderate Republican’.

It’s misleading in that it sort of implies maybe that it’s being used as an incendiary, but not mentioning that it’s incendiary is also misleading because most people don’t know tear gas grenades are incendiary.

Well, it sort of implies that the police used it for incendiary purposes. That is to cause a fire. They’d have to prove that first.

I wouldn’t want to return to those old days. If these are the rules, a cop could blow away anyone they don’t like, as long as there are no witnesses.

Not really, no. It only sort of vaguely implies that, and in all the stories I’ve seen, they correctly say that these grenades can cause fire but were being used to try to get him to come out, and described the fire as a ‘risk’ of using them and not a purpose.
Free of context, maybe it’d be a weird thing to say but in context it’s completely reasonable to call them incendiary tear gas grenades, especially since they may have caused the fire.
