The solution is to hire more Affirmative Action agressive black cops.

Black on black crime is expected, ignored, and even excused.

The black community hates the police anyway so no loss there… and whitey will be left out of the whole deal.

I guess they don’t need an ATC in the air space over Pyongyang:
https://www.yahoo.com/tech/pyongyangs-latest-fad-sightseeing-ultralight-airplanes-015109125.html

PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) — Until a few months ago, if you wanted a bird’s eye view of North Korea’s capital, there was basically only one option: a 150-meter (492-foot) -tall tower across the river from Kim Il Sung Square.

Now, if you have the cash, you can climb into the back seat of an ultralight aircraft.

With the support of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, who has vowed to give North Koreans more modern and “cultured” ways to spend their leisure time, and with foreign tourism companies looking to entice visitors with unique things to do besides visit war museums and political monuments, a Pyongyang flying club has started offering short flights over some of the capital’s major sights.

When I was a teenager, I remember wanting to buy an ultra-light airplane after seeing two or three at the State Fair in my home town. $5000 was a long way away for me in the 1980s.

Gun bans only work against people without hacksaws and files.

Korean policeman killed by known criminal with a homemade gun about 4 hours ago.

Smoke ’em if you got ’em!
https://www.yahoo.com/news/meet-azalea-smoking-chimp-star-pyongyang-zoo-101859403.html

PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) — Pyongyang’s newly opened zoo has a new star: Azalea, the smoking chimpanzee.

According to officials at the newly renovated zoo, which has become a favorite leisure spot in the North Korean capital since it re-opened in July, the 19-year-old female chimpanzee, whose name in Korean is “Dallae,” smokes about a pack a day. Dallae is short for azalea.

They insist, however, she doesn’t inhale.

Doesn’t inhale? Where have I heard that before? :hmm:
Will there be a blue dress as well?

Filthy habit…

…going to the zoo that is, not smoking. Vitamin N is an essential part of a healthy regimen. 😉

“I am interested to see what everyone thought of the debate last night?”

There is nothing to think. The debate changed the minds of nobody. Trump supporters saw nothing amazing… but nothing off-putting. Hillary supporters bought into her fake smile and memorized talking points (which, as Wikileaks has pointed out in past debates, were likely designed to answer leaked questions… she had the questions and she pre-made the answers while Trump was left umprepared.).

“I think whatever good points Trump made were lost by his response as to whether he would accept the election results.”

It is an undeniable fact that Hillary manipulated the primary election results with Bernie Sanders. Everybody accepts this.

Considering that Wikileaks and DC Leaks have shown multiple examples of corruption and conspiracy within the election process… not including the massive ongoing voter fraud which seems to ALWAYS favor Democrats… and illegal aliens being alowed to vote, it is very resonable for Trump to be skeptical of any loss….

…considering his rallies gets thousands (or tens of thousands) for Hillary’s hundreds… while he sets records for small donors, Republican primary votes, re-tweets, Facebook likes (with a generally older and less connected base). Etc… it is not clear that he is behind in the polls… regardless of what the agenda-driven polls say.

If he somehow loses (with Soros-controlled companies managing a large percentage of electronic voting machines) there would be no shame in contesting the vote… as Gore did… until he got paid off.

“Hillary was basically Hillary repeating her memorized talking points. Unless some major October surprise happens I think Hillary has pretty much wrapped it up.”

Yes. Painful. That fake smile. But she hardly has it wrapped up. Many Americans are neither dumb nor immoral. Perhaps more than 50% fall into this category.

After the election, the media will have a fake retrospective “how did polling go so wrong” where they will make excuses such as blaming the poll-takers or unique circumstances of this election.

They won’t blame agenda-driven pollsters clearly manipulating the results.

Face it. More than half of Americans are not stupid. They will vote for Trump.

The aftermath of this election will be as clear as the Reagan/Carter election… where the media insisted that it was close… but Reagan won in a landslide… which was obvious to everyone.

“I think whatever good points Trump made were lost by his response as to whether he would accept the election results.”

What CH said.
The media, too, seemed very very preoccupied by this response. Especially considering we all know who is paying people to crash rallies. I thought the questioner was even-handed this time (this is a first…the others were very very obviously biased against Trump). But that was undermined with the guy in the suit and sneakers who followed and questioned the “objective” audience with obviously biased inquiries.

Scott Adams:
“If you want a reason to be worried, ask yourself why the mainstream media is so keen on framing the election as “not rigged.” The message I’m getting from them, collectively, is that they think it will be. (Because it will be.) We just don’t know how much the rigging will matter.

Why do I say it will be rigged?

Because whenever humans have motive, opportunity, a high upside gain, and low odds of detection, shenanigans happen 100% of the time. Our vote-counting systems have plenty of weak spots. Rigging (to some degree) is a near guarantee.

And keep in mind that Team Clinton has framed Trump as the next Hitler. That gives every citizen moral cover to do outrageous things to stop him. The stakes are sky-high. In this environment, it would truly be a miracle to have an unrigged election. But again, we don’t know how much rigging there will be. It might not be enough to matter.

There will almost certainly be election rigging for the same reason there has been debate rigging. If you don’t believe me about debate rigging, ask a woman who did some of that debate rigging herself. Allegedly. Unless it was Russia’s fault.”

Voting the Dead and the Illegals is Old School. The new, hip young kids use Voting Machine Flipping:
https://newrepublic.com/article/137115/americas-voting-machines-disaster-making

BTW, the problems of machine flipping is covered by both Left and Right wing new sites and articles. So to me, it seems this year it will be a race to see who flips more, faster, better and with the fewest number of operatives caught.

I know a lot of Bernie Bros were denied voting during the Primaries because somehow, the System had them registered as Republicans. Exit Polls also had several states going Bernie, then the machines came back with Hillary winning. One machine had her gain exactly 10,000 votes, but nothing shady there, right?

Oh, I also remember Indecision 2000. Al Gore didn’t immediately accept the results. We had Hanging Chads, interviews with guys named Chad, and even interviews with random citizens of Chad in Africa.

Samsung made YouTube remove video of GTA mod that turns Note 7 into a bomb
http://www.theverge.com/2016/10/19/13333386/samsung-galaxy-note-7-gta-mod-youtube-takedown

I like Samsung and all but bogus copyrights claims are as weak as CH’es club game after 1am or 4 Sojus; whichever comes first. 😉

I recently read a book by Grossman about the psychology of fear. It turns off all higher thinking processes and rational thought. I can’t think of any better example than this campaign year. There’s no frontal lobe activity.
Hillary’s strategy of pointing at Trump for “womanizing” is brilliant!
I guess Chris Christy should point the finger at rivals for being overweight, which is a clear indication of no self control?
Or would that tactic only work if his spouse was the sow?
Doesn’t matter. Everything above the brain stem is dead for people who believe Trump is the next Hitler.
