Paris attacks and Eagles of Death Metal

[Space Freely]

you see.. saying 9-11 was different or changed things is one thing.. saying it CHANGED EVERRRYYYYTHING is silly..

the further away, in fact, we get from it the less it changed over the long term..if you think about it..

we still have to listen to God Bless America at baseball games.. hopefully that will change soon....

Oh Christ, now you sound like my know it all eight year old atheist daughter who wouldn't even stand when the Nats trotted out the legendary Judy Collins to sing the blessing. Grow up, kid.

Why We Can?t Stay Silent on Germany?s Mass Sex Assaults

http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/01/08/why-we-can-t-stay-silent-on-germany-s-mass-sex-assaults.html

It took several days for the news of hundreds of sexual assaults in Cologne to make headlines. As progressives dither over what to say, the far right has already seized the opportunity.

Why stop with the Muslims...we need to get those Papa New Guineans too
Indeed, among the worst offenders is Papua New Guinea, where two-thirds of women are subjected to some kind of physical or sexual violence, and rapists from ?raskol? gangs are happy to pose for
photos after their latest rape.

Let's be clear this is a heinous act
but to say this is a 'Muslim' thing is a little absurd
it's a violence against women thing, which in this modern era shouldn't be tolerated no matter what religion or region you hail from

Though not as egregious as the acts themselves, the Koln mayor's directions to women on how they should behave to prevent further attacks was pretty rancid.

why you don't think this is good advice

"There?s always the possibility of keeping a certain distance of more than an arm?s length ? that is to say to make sure yourself you don?t look to be too close to people who are not known to you, and to whom you don?t have a trusting relationship," Henriette Reker said

seems like it would be hard to walk down a city street with you 6 foot 'arms length' barrier
guess women shouldn't go the the 9:30 club...wait seems like they are following Reker's advice!

What I found truly heinous and alarming about this thing was that the attacks on women were planned and coordinated by large groups of men. Which goes way beyond the shitiness of typical individual sexual attacks that are the norm when it comes to sexual violence.

Not to mention, but there are also still legitimate modern day witch hunts in New Guinea. If you have the time, I'd read this, it's truly insane:
