Thank God. thejediknighthusezni has finally been banned. It is unclear whether it was permanent.
First bans are usually temporary.
I’d expect this one to be a month long.
Covert 2013 image of my figure…
Are you the shoulder hand?
I’m the puppet.
Covert 2013 image of my figure…
I don’t recognize you without the laser background.
Your facial recognition is malfunctioning.
After the warning, he suddenly turned from vauge incendiary comments to clear incedniary comments. Strange.
What is going on today?
While much remains unknown about the specific weapons Stephen Paddock fired from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, killing at least 58 people and injuring potentially hundreds more, people familiar with the investigation said Monday that about 20 firearms were found in the gunman’s room.
The sound of gunfire captured on videos recorded during the massacre indicates that Paddock used at least one automatic weapon, a type of firearm that is highly regulated in the United States though a fairly common find at gun shows and firing ranges, including one near Las Vegas that allows customers to shoot military-grade weapons.
It was unclear how Paddock would have acquired an automatic weapon, if he did use one. Those weapons can be legally owned if made before May 1986 and registered with the federal government, or owned by licensed dealers.
So far, at least one has been identified as an AK-47 type rifle, outfitted with a stand to steady it and improve accuracy, said people close to the ongoing probe. Investigators are working to determine if Paddock modified mechanical components to a semiautomatic rifle to make it fully automatic, which is illegal, or if he used a legal modification like an attachable crank, which depresses the trigger faster than a finger and can be bought online for as little as $40.
Nope.
And IGNORING war, noise, and poverty does not make the country have peace, quiet, and prosperity.
I guess it might for you if you aren’t Muslim. Or gay. Or a woman. Or poor. Or black. Or Latino. Or [insert non-oppressed person here].
THIS
What “this” ? Are people oppressed or do they just feel that way ? Reality vs perception…
Let me give you agander into what my reality is. As a brown skinned mixed man who happens to be bisexual I have been paranoid of someone trying me ever since that prick won. It’s gotten to the point where I’m looking up self defense laws. News stories like the one Frink posted are why I’m looking that shit up. People like you and millions of others can ignore these kind of things because it will never affect you but for people like me the fear is anything but someone’s skewed perception.
So, from what I’m able to glean, Haseo got banned for posting a meme offensive to Arabs/Muslims and then being a dick about it?
Correct.
Sorry to hear that, man. Not sure if it will be of any use to you but just in case…

It’s one of the few places here where everyone is treated with respect. 😉
Echoed.
I don’t know; I’ve just seen it proposed. I can personally see the argument for both sides of the issue. I just wanted to see what people here thought.
Should we ban all guns?
I’m not sure how saying that you don’t like Trump is childish.

The Onion has run this story verbatim five times since 2014, switching out only city, photo, and body count. http://www.theonion.com/search?q="no+way+to+prevent+this" …
I hate Donald Trump.
(come at me, Frink)
I’m sure that’ll find its way into the edit.
Why would anyone give him the benefit of the doubt? He’s got a proven track record.
What would that track record be? Staying on topic. Never breaking the forum rules. Being civil, even when people throw insults at me.
Lol.
No, I suspect the ban is temporary.
I mean, he’s for the most part a good member, but every now and then, he’s not.
No mate - could you remove that image please?
That could easily be construed as a slur based on race/ethnicity/religion… and it’s not befitting of this thread, the whole forum, or yourself.
It’s a meme, they’re all like that. Haseo seems to be quite fond of them.
They’re memes of the ‘dank’ variety. They often rely on shock humor and “challenging social norms.”
I assume he’ll be back soon…
You suspect he’ll make a sock?
Same as it ever was.
Another one bites the dust.
Already posted.
Pay attention to what you’re doing!

Welp.

Amid intense debates about the Graham-Cassidy health care bill, the Senate and House missed the deadline to reauthorize the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) – meaning federal funding for the program will expire at the end of the month.
Last reauthorized in 2015, CHIP is a partnership between the federal government and states that insures American children from low and moderate-income families.
And though the program’s situation isn’t yet dire – and won’t be until the states begin to run out of money – some states are starting to get nervous about paying for the program.
“States are optimistic that Congress will actually act. They’re not totally panicked yet,” said Diane Rowland, executive vice president of Kaiser Family Foundation. “But, they need to know very soon that addition money will be coming so they’ll know how they can continue their programs.”
A Little History
CHIP was passed into law with bipartisan support under President Bill Clinton in 1997.
Co-sponsored by the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-MA, and Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-UT, and championed by then-first lady Hillary Clinton, the program provides low-cost health coverage to children in families who earn too much to qualify for Medicaid, but still need government support to pay for their kids’ healthcare.
In the years following the program’s passage, the uninsured rate among children fell significantly, from 13.9 percent in 1997 to 4.5 percent in 2015, according to a Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission report released early this year.
