18?
US equivalent of a hang mandela t-shirt. Sign of a cunt at a young age, and given that he's gone on to become a conservative judge, still a cunt.

I don't get it though: Why would she (or anyone) nuke Tehran? It is not a joke. It is so not a joke.

Founding a fascism forever society not like wandering down Carnaby Street and spending a few quid on a fascist t-shirt, it's a bit more than that surely.

No, your right, it was a joke, now it's a definite possibility.

I had a mate who flirted with the NF around that age. Went on to be actively anti-fash. My mate had a fucked up, abusive childhood and was angry at everything because of it.
What's this cunt's excuse?

Prep school means roughly the same as "Public School" here. The year book says he was the "founder" of this club, and was in it Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior years (that's the 1, 2, 3, 4 part). He was class of 1985, born in August 1967, so he would have been 13 when he founded it and still involved when he graduated at 17 coming up to 18.

Long dead. He was sound, but never did get effective support.

In turn, I worry that your use of the word "provoked" here might reflect undue optimism about his intentions. Today, it seems a lot more like he intends to provoke a major conflict in the way Mark Chapman provoked John Lennon's death.

Can you expand on that? I'm knackered, it's been a long day.

No worries. He died 17 years ago. Good to think of him again, tbh.
I get why he was like that at that age. I just don't get why people like this judge are like they are. Never have. I just find it weird.

This is a proposed state law, Republicans. 
Bill would make it illegal to ID officers who shoot citizens
The state NAACP and the Virginia Press Association criticized the proposal, which comes following a series of police shootings nationally that were captured on bystanders’ cellphone video, such as the fatal shooting in 2015 of Walter Scott in North Charleston, South Carolina. Officer Michael Slager shot him in the back as he ran. Police in the United States killed 1,092 people in 2016, according to a database from The Guardian newspaper.
Little to no information is publicly available in Virginia about the officer after a police shooting. Any history of disciplinary problems, previous shootings or use of force complaints is shielded from the public in Virginia law.
“Anything that broadens the gap between the community trust and law enforcement, that would deepen the divide, cannot be a good thing,” said Linda Thomas, president of The Virginia State Conference NAACP. “And so we would urge lawmakers to ... vote this down, and continue on the pathway that leads to better communication, citizens’ review and oversight in the investigatory process, and to continue to remedy anything that would prevent law enforcement officers from being in tune and in touch with the community.”
She also noted that after a police officer shoots someone the person shot is named and opened up to public scrutiny, “while cloaking in secrecy the identity of the public servant who is paid with taxpayer money.”

Was all very cozy at the President's "Prayer Breakfast" this morning.
State Duma deputy called in the US prayer breakfast with Trump
Chairman of the Duma Committee on Budget Andrey Makarov went to the US to take part in the National Prayer Breakfast, sources told RBC in the Duma. After the events of "Crimean Spring" in 2014, the deputies did not go to such events

I'm getting the impression that they are actively looking at a map and saying things like "Vladimir's not going to appreciate it if we go for Iran, but Cuba looks too close to Florida for a nuclear strike - what do you guys think about Morocco?". I'm worried that they're keener on the deploying than the provoking.

Reminds me of how the Scientologists, way back in the 1990s, tried to characterise anyone who quoted their lunatic scriptures as a "copyright terrorist"
There's something for the "positives about Trump" thread...he's not a Scieno.

Expect more bills like this in the coming weeks, just fining or imprisioning protesters wont satisfy the demands of the Loons supporters.
I dislike hyperbole, but if just a small fraction of whats surfacing in the last few days becomes enacted in law many Americans will start to view the PRC as a bastion of democracy.
ETA, for the benefit of bluescreen, trying for a wee bit of irony and back humour, but, the emphasis is on 'wee'

It would be almost reassuring to think this was the worst we had to worry about.Reminds me of how the Scientologists, way back in the 1990s, tried to characterise anyone who quoted their lunatic scriptures as a "copyright terrorist"

Eh, but there's more, and worse.
