    Yeah I was struck by the distressed fisherman’s account of noticing several individuals on the beach carrying spears and building boats. This tribe gives no fucks and takes the fight to the invaders. That they were just going to build some boats right there on the spot and then rush on out to probably kill the fisherman shows some determination.

     

    I agree, but don't really think that using the word "rush" really fits when you have to first build the boat by hand.

    Certainly not defending the use here, but isn't tear gas regularly used for crowd dispersion?  Seems Jules is overreacting a bit here.

    How is he overreacting? 

    Are you saying that this isn't a violation of the Geneva Convention?

    Crucifixion is a terrible, terrible thing. Should never happen. And we may never know whether Jesus was guilty of crimes against Rome. Who can say? But thirty pieces IS a lot of silver, and it would be very foolish to turn it down.

    credit to @normative

    Crucifixion?

    More like crucifiction.

    I hope Trump isn't impeached as it will make 2020 a continued blood bath for Republicans

    Oh yeah, impeachment would be the wrong thing to do, from the perspective of the Dems.

    Trump, and his fucktard base, are the gifts that keep giving. They gave quite a bit during the mid-terms.

    No, there is.  They signed a document that said they could be sent to die in service of their country.  They, above all, should shame this POTUS.

    That doesn't make them inherently better.

    I have no respect for veterans who support Trump.  

    Veterans are just people like anybody else, especially in this day of the all-volunteer army.

    Some are dirt bags.  Most are good, normal people. But there's nothing inherently better about them b/c they chose to pursue a job option in the military.

    Beto O'Rourke had no recognition outside Texas, and basically none inside Texas.

    I think Beto has more name recognition inside Texas than you give him credit for.
