Re: Ferguson, Missouri shooting of Michael Brown

Autopsy shows that Michael Brown was shot six times, none of them in the back. Wounds to his arms entered from the front, which would not have happened if his hands were up. No info on tox screen or GSR on the clothes, but lack of wounds in the back makes that eyewitness testimony suspect. The witne...

If they have an NFL Online Ticket option available again I'm jumping on it. $100 for all 16 games and Madden beats the money I usually have to shell out for tickets and travel to just see one Cards game.

Well, crap, if I'd know that was available online I'd have gone with that one. Usually SNL doesn't like their clips on streaming sites other than NBC.com.

Re: Ferguson, Missouri shooting of Michael Brown

The crazed cop part is still up for debate. What's to debate? He shot a running man in the back and kept shooting him after he surrendered. Any prior misdeeds of the victim are absolutely irrelevant, and it's disgusting that people are attacking the victim's character as if it somehow excuses the s...

Re: House approves lawsuit against President Obama

Oh, I don't know. Ukraine and Russia being on the brink of war strikes me as worse as the status quo. As does the expansion of ISIS toward a multi-nation caliphate.

Re: Ferguson, Missouri shooting of Michael Brown

Dan: I think the other side of the argument would be, regardless of his possible criminal record or other character attributes, unless he presented an immediate threat to the cop's life, he should not have been shot to death. His robbing a convenience store doesn't make it okay to gun him down. Als...

Re: Ferguson, Missouri shooting of Michael Brown

Again, doesn't excuse the behavior of the police toward the protesters, but this adds a bit more context to the situation.

Re: Ferguson, Missouri shooting of Michael Brown

Ugh. Yeah, censorship is never a good sign, and you'd think cops would know it's perfectly Constitutional for them to be videotaped given all the recent court findings.

Re: Ferguson, Missouri shooting of Michael Brown

Has there been a video released of the shooting yet? Reserving judgement about what happened if/when we see dash cam recordings. Even if it was excessive force, it's still no excuse for the rioting, though.

Wait, so the Washington Post is not an acceptable source? Too right-wing, I guess? What works for you - Vox? The New Republic? Just pointing out a few of the things going on in the world where Obama's foreign policy leadership has been weak or ineffectual, given that you asked, "How is foreign ...

Re: What TV shows are you guys watching?

Started True Detective. 3 episodes in. Fantastic! There is a scene about two thirds of the way through the season that is one of the most amazing pieces of cinematography I have ever seen. Let me know if you notice it when you get done. Without spoiling much, was it the escape from the hood scene a...

The progression is amazing. Hopefully the special effects department isn't freaking out. Season 1: oh, just throw some good visuals up on a greenscreen. Can you come up with some miniature dragons? Season 4: All right, I need 100,000 men, giants, and mammoths attacking a 700-foot wall. And animated ...
