Worldwide Israel/Palestine War Protests Thread
These cops in LA have some badass gear. What do you think one full set of kit, from the helmet to the boots, gun, taser, armor, patches, backpack, goggles the whole shitaree cost the taxpayers? I'm guessing at least $50,000 which means, because government bidding was involved $125,000 is the real number. These guys look like something from a futuristic movie. Their shit is way nicer than those Delta guys in Blackhawk Down had.

UT Pro-Palestine Protest Thread
So, if I say "I want to "massacre all the Jews"," I'm not really saying kill people "because they are Jews," but instead, I'm saying "Jews are the enemy - massacre all?" I think you outsmarted me on this one. Maybe try removing the letters "JEW" from your post and replace it with another racial or ethnic term, and see how it plays. I'll help you get it started: "The English commanders openly stated they wanted to massacre all the French. This is not anti-French, because the French are the enemy but they are not the enemy simply because they are French." "There is no anti-French in this entire conflict, never has been never will be. Rookie." I think your post sucks.

Worldwide Israel/Palestine War Protests Thread
Friendly reminder. The last time we went through a bunch of unrest and turmoil, we got actual life-endangering violence. This guy: Texas Department of Criminal Justice Inmate Search Now resides in Brazoria County and doesn't have to worry about things like bills or income taxes anymore. I bet he would do things differently if given a chance. This guy: Garrett Foster: Protester Killed In Austin BLM Shooting (rollingstone.com) Well he's experiencing Valhalla now. I'm sure it's glorious and all. I for one would like to see people behave with some decency. I don't like you or your politics, you don't like me and mine, fine - fuck you - but can we not destroy things including human lives?

We need a drunk/intoxicated resisting arrest thread of LMFAO
I am glad that I came of age in a time when my jack-assery, tom foolery and ballyhoo was not memorialized on Google, for posterity.

Running Alt-Right Thread of Mockery and Hypocrisy
I'm going to round table this one with the boys down at Carcosa and get back with you. May summon some dark spirits just to make sure I'm on the right track.

All the King's Horses. Trample All The Kings Men
I'm no horse expert but I was thinking that they were rugged animals except for broken legs or hooves. A bunch of blood isn't a big deal - stich that sumbitch up and give it some hay. A broken leg - old yeller treatment for you Mr. Smokey. Amirite?

Running Alt-Right Thread of Mockery and Hypocrisy
Look, they don't mean to screw you, they're really good people but... reasons, excuses, and voila, the miracle was late so you get to hold the bag. "Sorry, I'll see you at megachurch on Sunday. I'll be wearing expensive clothes and my conscience will be unburdened."

Running Alt-Right Thread of Mockery and Hypocrisy
My favorite is when you're in a board meeting about to vote on something (and I've been in 2 where we were deliberating and about to vote on someone's future - hiring/firing - and this happened) and someone rolls out something to the effect of "I've prayed about this and God has led me to know that _________." Sheeeyit. I can't argue with that. You've got the almighty on your side. The alpha and omega. All I did was run this by my wife after a few cocktails, sleep on it, and apply my experience, reason and education to the question. I was feeling pretty confident with my pair of deuces and you just pulled out the Mississippi flush. I guess I just lose. Discussion over, thanks be to God.

Running Alt-Right Thread of Mockery and Hypocrisy
I like it when you see someone try to be a smartass or toughster with the foreign country's cops or TSA. I witnessed this last year in a Caribbean country not T&C. Dude, these guys get paid like $7 a day to sit here and deal with your shit. They live in some shack without electricity. When they figure out you'll pay them everything in your wallet to stop the beating... the beating will start.

When did old Austin die?
You left out the restaurant on Congress. It was not a luxury destination, but on Fridays they had shrimp enchiladas. I'm generally not a fan of the shrimp enchilada but I liked that place. I think the back dining room may have been an alley.

When did old Austin die?
What year did South Park Meadows become an Academy? What year did the Backyard become a Target? What year did they tear down the TexMex restaurant at 2nd and Congress (I forgot the name but shrimp enchiladas slammed)? Average those and you'll be in the ballpark. Also, going off memory but wasn't there a Texadelphia at 5th and Congress somewhere? And wasn't there an old Schlotzsky's somewhere around 5th and 35?

Are there any good breakfast taco options in Longview? I'll be there for a couple days and could use some local knowledge.

Post a pic that makes you say "Holy shit."
I try to impress on my family that car insurance is your friend. Someone wants to steal the car? Fucking have at it - I hope it's in a chop shop or Honduras quickly... I don't really want it back. Someone wants to car jack a car? Here are the keys my friend - no trouble here. That truck was insured and letting a bad guy leave the place where I am, with an insured vehicle? No problemo friendo. Now, come into my house while my family is sleeping, i can't really abide that.

Doctor at UTHSC at Houston under investigation for manipulating liver transplant patient list
Steve Jobs was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2003, and I understand he lived in California at that time, and all relevant times. In April 2009, miracle of all miracles, he undergoes a liver transplant in... Memphis. I think that's about 7 states and 2,000 miles away from his home. He dies 30 months later of... pancreatic cancer. If I rolled into a liver transplant program with pancreatic cancer, what do you think my odds are of getting a spot on the list? Ever making it to the top of the list? I'm going with "not good Bob." You cannot convince me that all of these transplant programs are run cleanly. Money or connections will get you a better spot in line at certain programs. Stevie Jobs didn't go to Memphis for the ribs and ocean sunsets.

[Remains Found] Caleb Harris, the disappearing A&M CC kid
I bet if it was one of those Texas State "kids" from other threads, we would have already formed our own Cajun Navy and would be out there in full force.

motte-and-bailey fallacy
This strikes me as some kinda philosophical trojan horse bullshit. You're gonna sound all smart and get us all nodding our heads thinking, "yeah, this guy knows what he's talking about." Then, you'll try to turn it. I mean, surely you wouldn't open a thread about how we're all more reasonable than we actually seem, without some hidden plan. I give it 12 hours before you roll out that the earth is flat and aliens are among us.

$30MM heist in L.A.
- Lasik - Austin 2018
"Look old girl, you need an estate planning lawyer and a life-alert clicker. Not tits. Get the fuck out of my office - I've got twenty-year-olds to examine."- Lasik - Austin 2018
I recommend Lasik. I used Tyrone McCall when I was 42. Cornea Associates of Texas: Ophthalmologists in Dallas, TX - Fort Worth - Plano (corneatexas.com) If I had one comment about the surgery it is that I never think about it, I just don't wear glasses anymore. If I have eye dryness, etc., it is generally because I drank too much alcohol and not enough water. Now, a few years down the track, I use reading glasses when I read but can survive without them - just a convenience thing. I don't "need" reading glasses, but if I'm in a dark restaurant and they give me the damned fine print receipt, the glasses help. I asked him about the monovision thing. His comment was something to the effect of "my goal is to give you 20/20 or better vision. If you want me to intentionally give you something less now, planning on a future date when it may make things easier... I will, but I don't recommend it." For driving, sports, outdoor activity, etc., I just wear normal sunglasses without drama.- Post a pic that makes you lol
$78,000 and you get a 2 year old GMC with tow hooks and a nice suspension? Sign me up.- Boston
If you spend a lot of time in an uber driving back and forth from one place to the next, you'll miss a lot of Boston. I highly suggest getting out and walking around/pub crawling it. I also think the average restaurants in Boston still overachieve compared to average restaurants somewhere like Dallas. - Lasik - Austin 2018
