DVBP: What kind of bothers me is the judge 'cautioning' the person about discussing things that go on in court in the public domain. This is perplexing in a wide variety of ways, not the least of which if the press got a hold of the story and exploited it for its salty display of racism and how the system works to perpetuate it. If I were the judge and was confronted with this, I'm pretty sure I'd order counseling for the momma who is showing or at least channeling the hate she has for her former spouse on the children. Given my background, I can also understand what the judge

Yeah, it is a third-party auction promotion site/service that they have purchased access to and they're trying to build a database they market to. I hit the x and kept on running. pubby

I went to the kroger site and got a similar notice using sea monkey's browser (which is a mozilla clone) and it gave me a 'you need to update your browser) dialog. It was still a "kroger" domain, though. I have run across a wild-kroger-like domain by accident trying to do their survey (a fake site) and I didn't recognize the bitcoin domain. But krogers web developers are persnickity about the browser you use. I gaves me a tool to ignore/bypass the upgrade dialog but as you note Ms. G, some things may not or don't work. FYI: You can install two, three, four or even five different

By JOVE You got it ... this was a fake event invented to incite violence. While some (ME FOR INSTANCE) would recognize this as a form of entrapment regardless of the religion or cultural norm targeted and would reject it out of hand, we all know that there are some for whom the ends justify the means. That is clearly the case here. I would guess you are a consequentialist.

Maybe, but my reading is totally different. I posted this in the comments on youtube: pubby

The actual video starts about 45 seconds in ... I think the TYT folks saw this as an opportunity (or maybe youtube) to get some good adviews ... but the story does depict a rather ridiculous crime and punishment scenario. I wonder what the 'plea bargain' offered was ... I also think that this was a case where the judge, in his instructions to the attorneys, denied the jury the knowledge that a fifteen year sentence was an outcome; the jury was just to determine guilt or innocence with the sentencing being the sole option of the judge ... who was no doubt disturbed by a case he/she cons

It certainly wasn't racial, and yes CC ... sickening, especially as the officer is still on the job. pubby

Published on May 5, 2015 A five year old boy who has special needs was recently shackled and handcuffed in a Pennsylvania school and his mother is understandably livid about it. The school had an established action plan if the child had any sort of temper tantrum in school, the boy was known to have temper tantrums because of some special needs. The incident occurred after the boy started stabbing himself with pencils and trying to choke himself. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian of The Young Turks discuss. Do you think the school and police went too far? Tell us what you think in the comment sec

To the contrary ... we all know that it was an insult designed to shock to put the crucifix in urine and call it art. Even Justice Antonin Scalia was on the side in the SCOTUS saying that protests that burn or desecrate the flag is protected political speech. I'm pretty sure that those who do desecrate the flag or display Christian symbols disrespectfully aren't welcome in your home. Anyone, for a good or bad reason or no reason at all, has the right to bar them at their door but not from the commons. Further I know of no one who forces you to socialize with those whose concept of art

That's rich Zorro ... pointing out that Cynthia McKinney spreading the alert of the federal government ditched 5,000 Katrina victims and calling her crazy all the while buying into the craziness of Chuck Norris who is saying the same thing except times 500 (Gov't gonna kill 2.5 million in Jade Helm). You do know it would suffice to say simply that Chuck Norris is out of his gourd and leave it at that... especially since we dismissed Cynthia McKinney a while back. pubby

Mrs. G. If you look closely at the URL on the page you see it is actually softcoin.com ... with some "kroger" elements built in to make you think it is the Kroger site. I don't think it is or even associated with them. I occassionally go to the kroger survey site to get that extra 50 gas points and I've found myself at the same page. Leave that site. It is not right and don't believe a word they say. pubby

News Junky, Maybe I can explain free speech rights this way. Free Speech is an unalienable right. You can use it until you take your last gasp. In this country, presumably, THE GOVERNMENT cannot deny you the right to exercise it. Mostly, it tells you that government can't say "You can't say that." That would be prior restraint which, even in the case of publishing classified material (like the Pentagon Papers.) It also mean that you can burn the flag in the Dallas Square in protest, burn the Bible on the steps of the First Baptist Church in Dallas, Burn a draft card in front

Good points ABR? Yeah, just like this Jade Helm 15 conspiracy theorist. Go to about 3:00 in the video and see what they're talking about. I always knew you believed in the tunnels. pubby

Pretty much that doesn't surprise me - that whites are the victim of the trigger happy. I will admit that doesn't fit the mainstream media narrative which, right or wrong, does have influence. I think the reason that the statistic you pointed out has not been more widely promoted by FOX news is that it really emphasizes the main complaint of the citizens - police violence and brutality are out of control. Saying it is okay, we still kill more unarmed whites than we do unarmed blacks is somehow not confidence inspiring. But no never mind. I'm for people being arrested and tried

Oh, NJ ... I would think about it ... but I disagree, I know I wouldn't do this deed - dare I call it a prank - because it serves the agenda of dividing people. Would I pull a prank for publicity? Yes, but I would hope that it wouldn't be one that counts on having people die as a result. pubby
