asians love fascism because it compliments their originally totalitarian ideologies.
Kuomingtang had a lot in common with the Nazi's, nationalism, ubermensch race idea, promoting han chinese culture and shit. during the martial law period kids who get beaten by teachers if they speak anything other than mandarin, so a ton of aborigines lost their languages because of this.Spearhead wrote:

Depends, a Luger is nice piece of eqpt, and IIRC there are more around from WW1 than WW2.Uzique The Lesser wrote:

http://www.tulsaworld.com/article.aspx/ … TLIN283007A Sapulpa man who was held in jail for 84 days before DNA evidence cleared him in the brutal rape of his then-girlfriend's 4-year-old daughter plans to sue the Creek County Sheriff's Office for wrongful arrest.
Tommy Braden's attorney, Don Smolen, of Tulsa, sent notice earlier this month that they plan to take legal action for wrongful arrest and detention, which they allege was the result of the Sheriff's Office negligence.
"From day one he's begging them to do a DNA test," Smolen said. "They said they weren't going to do that because it was a waste of taxpayers' dollars."
Braden was arrested shortly after the April 6, 2012, rape and was not released until a defense attorney, Lowell Howe, got a judge to approve a DNA test which cleared him on July 3.
The DNA evidence was a match for Patrick Edward Misner, a convicted felon who lived in the same mobile home park at the time.
Shit like this is why people were hoping Chris Dorner killed more police officers.
The terrorist win if he keep reacting like this.Kiera Wilmot got good grades and had a perfect behavior record. She wasn't the kind of kid you'd expect to find hauled away in handcuffs and expelled from school, but that's exactly what happened after an attempt at a science project went horribly wrong.
On 7 a.m. on Monday, the 16 year-old mixed some common household chemicals in a small 8 oz water bottle on the grounds of Bartow High School in Bartow, Florida. The reaction caused a small explosion that caused the top to pop up and produced some smoke. No one was hurt and no damage was caused.
According to WTSP, Wilmot told police that she was merely conducting a science experiment. Though her teachers knew nothing of the specific project, her principal seems to agree.
"She made a bad choice. Honestly, I don't think she meant to ever hurt anyone," principal Ron Pritchard told the station. "She wanted to see what would happen [when the chemicals mixed] and was shocked by what it did. Her mother is shocked, too."
After the explosion Wilmot was taken into custody by a school resources officer and charged with possession/discharge of a weapon on school grounds and discharging a destructive device. She will be tried as an adult.
She was then taken to a juvenile assessment center. She was also expelled from school and will be forced to complete her diploma through an expulsion program.
what fucking stupid country. when we did science in class, we had a crackpot teacher (a private school, admittedly) who would get out the van de graaf generator and do 'explosive' chemical reactions all the time. even when it was irrelevant to the stuff being studied. he just loved fucking around with that stuff. trying someone in court because they caused a small explosion in a chemistry lab. wow.

Charged as an adult, too? Jesus fucking christ, apparently she's black though so gg. Granted, she was trying to make something go boom by closing off the system, and a plastic bottle is a poor vessel choice for a reaction. I wish I knew what she actually did use so as to gauge this explosion, because a dry ice bomb completely destroys a bottle whereas this just popped the cap off.
something with the force to pop a bottle cap counts as a WMD now, don't you know? after you failed to find shit in iraq, now you're redressing the legal balance by finding them everywhere. can't say you guys didn't learn nothing from the iraq mess. pressure cooker with some nails in it? WMD! over-carbonated bottle of cola? WMD!!!
Two people in my town were arrested for blowing up some bottles using mentos and diet coke.

stories like these show irrefutably that terrorism has 'won' since 9/11. you guys are scared fucking shit-less. a first-world superpower that calls out bomb squads because kids blow up cola bottles. and yet you're fine having people owning fully automatic weapons. it makes no sense. you're paranoid as shit - you'll demand the right to own massive military hardware, even when it kills dozens of pre-schoolers, but then you'll call on the SWAT team if a brown person has a backpack, or some kid pops a bottle cap. america is losing the war on terror.

London (CNN) -- Authorities on Wednesday carried out a controlled explosion on a suspicious vehicle parked at London's Gatwick Airport, a spokesman for Sussex police said.
An area around the Renault van in a short-term parking lot was cordoned off while police tried to determine whether the vehicle posed any threat to travelers.
"There is no suggestion that there are any other threats to the airport and both police and security staff are actively checking all areas," the spokesman said.
The Press Association of England said police grew more concerned when they couldn't get a complete view of what was inside the van.
A spokeswoman for the airport said all flights were operating normally.
controlled explosions happen all the time. especially at big airports and transport services. it's pretty routine. not sure how you're equating that with a schoolgirl being sent to jail for blowing up a bottle. or shutting down an entire city whilst you hunt for a teenager. way to distort a mundane news-story.
There's nothing for them to win, Macbeth, they've already won. Bush and congress pushed us into two hyper-expensive wars that are taking longer to fight than the Third fucking Reich, plane travel involves humiliation and anal rape and authorities are super-cereal about abandoned cardboard boxes and things like Diet Coke/Mentos. I don't know if they thought it was worth taking a gutting in Afghanistan, but they've endured. We have not.Macbeth wrote:

An American judge known for his harsh and autocratic courtroom manner was jailed for 28 years for conspiring with private prisons to hand young offenders maximum sentences in return for kickbacks amounting to millions of dollars.
Mark Ciavarella Jnr was ordered to pay $1.2m (£770,000) in restitution after he was found to be a “figurehead” in the conspiracy that saw thousands of children unjustly punished in the name of profit in the case that became known as “kids for cash”.
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has overturned some 4,000 convictions issued by the former Luzerne County judge between 2003 and 2008, claiming he violated the constitutional rights of the juveniles – including the right to legal counsel and the right to intelligently enter a plea. Ciavarella Jnr, 61, was tried and convicted of racketeering charges earlier this year but his lawyers had asked for a “reasonable” sentence, claiming that he had already been punished enough.
Federal prosecutors accused Ciavarella Jnr and a second judge, Michael Conahan, of taking more than $2m in bribes from the builder of the PA Child Care and Western PA Child Care detention centres and extorting hundreds of thousands of dollars from the facilities’ co-owner. Ciavarella Jnr filled the beds of the private prisons with children as young as 10, many of them first-time offenders convicted minor crimes. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world … 98147.html
wow, that is grievous. proof, as if you ever needed it, that the private sphere of capitalism should never overlap with the application of justice.
Wow. What an incredible piece of shit.

Zique you ever heard of Serco? They're running a ton of shit in the UK right now including prisons. shit's fucking dirty.
serco are a huge company. they run so much stuff. the last government or two have got very cosy with them. lots of council work is privately contracted out to them as well. literally huge, massive profits, all floated from public contracts/service work in the UK. aren't they really big in australia too? i was under the impression they're a huge multinational.
big business, putting people in prison.

Yeah they run our detention system. They're one of those companies you don't really hear that much about. Dirty dirty shit they're into. Too bad they're pretty much running your entire missile system as well lol.Uzique The Lesser wrote:

yeah i remember a news article a few years ago basically digging beneath the innocently-branded surface of a bunch of street-cleaning, school-meals, prison-guard etc. companies, and they're all basically local fronts for serco. just purposefully rebranded to fall in line with the image of a 'local council' doing the work, or whatever, something local and community-based. pretty shitty.
I remembered Jay and lowing arguing about whether business should hire ex-convicts while reading this article:

What is there to discuss? If we want to reintegrate them into society, they're going to have to have jobs. Though good luck getting one even with a clean record nowadays.
