World Net Daily Crackpot Says Officials Who Skip Netanyahu’s Speech Should Be Hanged - Especially the Black Ones

Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu is giving a very controversial address to Congress tomorrow, as you’ve probably heard; some Democrats are reportedly considering boycotting the speech, because it’s an egregious violation of the usual diplomatic protocols. And it’s not just US Democrats who think John Boehner’s invitation to Netanyahu was a terrible idea — nearly 200 Israeli intelligence and security officials have also expressed their opposition, saying it would do serious damage to US-Israel relations. But Netanyahu is unmoved, and the speech is going ahead.

But the most insane reaction to Netanyahu’s speech (so far) comes from World Net Daily crackpot Andrea Shea King, who says any elected officials who skip the speech should be “hanging from a noose.”

Especially members of the Congressional Black Caucus.

Via Right Wing Watch:

King specifically suggested hanging members of the Congressional Black Caucus, saying “their districts are all dumb clucks because these dumb clucks wouldn’t be electing these people if they knew better.”

“How do people like this get to represent us in Congress?” she asked. “Because there are stupid people out there in those congressional districts who are so ignorant it’s dangerous…. Stupid, stupid people. Our lives are on the line and all they can think of is skin color. All of us will turn black if we end up in a cage on fire.”

And you’ll hear nothing of St. Ronald of Reagan’s disapproval of this sort of interference from foreign heads of state (from Israel, no less) from the current crop of Republicans, because it doesn’t fit their proffered version of history.

So Charles Johnson @Green_Footballs believes in religious tests for public office. Noted.

1) Religious tests as a precondition for holding office is not the same as asking about one’s religious views.

2) It is possible to believe in God and Creation and Evolution as well, it is just very difficult to be a Biblical literalist and believe in Evolution, archaeology, history or even logic.

Those Jaguar Priests are bit scary. I think I’ll have to agree with you there.

But you have to admire their work ethic.

“Some post-conquest sources report that at the re-consecration of Great Pyramid of Tenochtitlan in 1487, the Aztecs sacrificed about 80,400 prisoners over the course of four days,. This number is considered an exaggeration. According to Ross Hassig, author of Aztec Warfare, “between 10,000 and 80,400 persons” were sacrificed in the ceremony.[39] The higher estimate would average 14 sacrifices per minute during the four-day consecration. Four tables were arranged at the top so that the victims could be jettisoned down the sides of the temple.[40] Nonetheless, according to Codex Telleriano-Remensis, old Aztecs who talked with the missionaries told about a much lower figure for the reconsecration of the temple, approximately 4,000 victims in total.

This. It is important to know on what basis and with what tools a President evaluates the world.

Moreover, Charles Johnson (and the rest of us) wanting a question to be asked and answered is not the Federal Government prohibiting any given religious sect from holding office. It’s like saying “What happened to my Freedom Speech?” when someone takes you to task for something you’ve said.

ISIS did that. ISIS is Sunni. Netanyahu wants us to attack Iran. Iran is Shia. Attacking Iran will destabilize Iraq, because Iraq is majority Shia, and the government we’ve propped up there is Shia led. What Netanyahu is advocating would further widen the sectarian divide there, which would strengthen ISIS and undo what bit of progress we’ve managed to hold onto in Iraq.

Interestingly enough, I’d class Benghazi and Creationism in the same category - that of Belief in the face of overwhelming contradictory evidence. I don’t want a President who bases his policies on what he BELIEVES, when the evidence goes against it. We had 8 years of that shit, starting in 2001.

Green tip rounds? There is a little steel core in there. Almost a wire. If you are selling them to an army you might say armor piercing. But if you are the firm making millions of them, you appreciate using some cheap steel in place of relatively pricey lead. If you shoot them outdoors, they can hit rocks and spark quite a bit. Fire hazard.

There is reason as a soldier to want a bigger harder hitting ammunition. But then you can carry less of them. Always a controversial decision if you are the guy shooting.

also a major issue in automatic rifles, the bigger the round, the more it kicks and elevates the barrel while firing. Hence the .223 bullets for the M-16

American Airlines To Phase Out Complimentary Cabin Pressurization

FT. WORTH, TX—Explaining that the costs of the service have grown too high in recent years, American Airlines announced Tuesday that it will no longer offer free cabin pressurization to passengers starting March 15. “Unfortunately, to stay competitive as a legacy carrier in today’s air travel market, it no longer makes economic sense for us to provide breathable air at altitude,” said American Airlines CEO Doug Parker, noting that despite the cutbacks, air pressurization would still be available to first- and business-class travelers as well as those willing to pay an additional fee.

Yeah, it was mentioned in “Black Hawk Down”, but the problem was attributed to the 5.56mm round and the fact that the militiamen were high of khat, which is an amphetamine.

Similar complaints have been made about the 9mm Beretta and its lack of stopping power.

77 Blind Frog Belly White  Mar 2, 2015 12:17:12pm

From my reading, the m855 round was adopted specifically because it would pierce Soviet body armor. So, no, it’s not just a target round and yes, I’d say it’s ‘armor piercing’.

Whether banning it is merited, that’s a different question, but the woman who said the .223 round isn’t dangerous because it’s so tiny is full of shit.

Military ammunition is meant to wound, not kill. A dead soldier just lies there until he gets bulldozed into a mass grave. A wounded soldier - well, he 1) demoralizes his comrades 2) requires them to expose themselves to fire to retreive him 3) requires the enemy to devote precious resources to treating him at a field aid station near the front 4) requires the enemy to devote resources to treating him during his recovery phase, which may be months.

The .223 CAN kill, however. If it hits in the upper torso, it tends to penetrate, then bounce around inside the chest cavity. The effect is kinda like what would happen if you stuck one of those immersion blender sticks with razor-sharp whirling knives into someone’s stomach and turned it on.

No one knows how Louie Gohmert represents us in Congress.

Brainyquote is full of fake quotes because it’s an aggregator, not an actual research site that has, you know, actual people looking shit up.

Really really getting fed the fuck up with my manager.

He sends out an email Friday telling us to verify everything has been set a certain way. My team complies by COB Friday afternoon.

We get an email from our manager this morning saying he’s seeing errors everywhere and he’s pissed no one complied with his Friday email, but he’ll be out of the office till tomorrow morning

We log in to see what is going on and fuckstick went back into the servers Saturday and Sunday and made adjustments, disabling everything we did on Friday. We can’t even just reset things because he renamed everything and erased the policies we had been using and didn’t pass what the new settings are supposed to be.

After sitting there with my thumb up my ass for 3 hours, I volunteered to drive a co-worker to a medical appt, then went home for the rest of the day.

Turns out, at least he’s more tolerant and accepting than many other wingnuts.

He maybe wrong, but at least it looks like we won’t be able to accuse him of hyprocracy here.

Saying that it is better if offenders (“sodomites”) be put to death rather than all of us should be killed by God’s just wrath against us for tolerating wickedness in our midst,” the attorney proposes that any person who willingly touches another person of the same gender for purposes of sexual gratification be put to death by bullets to the head or by any other convenient method.”

While a federal judge struck down California’s death penalty as unconstitutional in 2014, McLaughlin has that covered.

“This law is effective immediately and shall not be rendered ineffective or invalidated by any court, state or federal, until heard by a quorum of the Supreme Court of California consisting only of judges who are neither sodomites nor subject to disqualification hereunder.”

No. but we CAN accuse him of being an idiot and intellectually dishonest, since on the one hand he argues that a private citizen wanting to know a candidates beliefs is a ‘religious test’, then on the other he hides behind their being no official prohibition of any religious group.

Note also that your conclusion that he’s more tolerant is not necessarily warranted by his response.

No one thought to verify our settings from Friday.

We took screenshots of the settings this morning. We’ll be grabbing screen shots of everything from this point forward.

re: #90 Kragar

Back when I was working for a brilliant Scientist who finally decided to fall on the ‘crazy’ side of the ‘Brilliant/Crazy’ line, I spent a Friday afternoon reading the entire manual for a NorTel voicemail system, setting it up, and creating my account and my coworker’s. I left a detailed message about how he should set up HIS account, since he was sleeping all day.

Monday morning, I come to work and ask him if he’d set up his account yet. He tells me I fucked it all up and I didn’t know what the hell I was doing.

Of course, it was HE who’d fucked it up, dicking around with a system he didn’t understand. He did this constantly - you’d set up your computer, and he’d dick around with it and tell you it was YOUR FAULT it wasn’t working.

That was about a month before I got off the crazy train.

Yes, but some far right loons have openly said that non Christians shouldn’t be allowed to run for public office, or at least they would never vote for one under any circumstances.

Tell me about it. More people would vote for a Muslim than would vote for an atheist, and there aren’t that many who’d vote for a Muslim.

According to McLaughlin’s filing, “The abominable crime against nature known as buggery, called also sodomy, is a monstrous evil that Almighty God, giver of freedom and liberty, commands us to suppress on pain of our utter destruction even as he overthrew Sodom and Gomorrha.”

Saying that it is better if offenders (“sodomites”) be put to death rather than “all of us should be killed by God’s just wrath against us for tolerating wickedness in our midst,” the attorney proposes that “any person who willingly touches another person of the same gender for purposes of sexual gratification be put to death by bullets to the head or by any other convenient method.”
