-- Badtux the Snarky Penguin
In a time of chimpanzees, I was a penguin.
The religious right is motivated by the suspicion that someone, somewhere,
is having fun -- and that this must be stopped.

Quote of the day
"I have stood by the officers since Day One, and I will not waver from that position because they have done nothing wrong." -- Denver police union president Nick Rogers, explaining that beating senseless random people on the street then lying about it under oath is just expected police behavior, and it's thus wrong to punish cops for doing it.

WARNING: You are entitled to create your own arguments, but you are NOT entitled to create your own facts. If you spew scientific denialism, or insist that the sky is purple, or otherwise insist that your made-up universe of pink unicorns and cotton candy trees is "real", well -- expect the banhammer.

To paraphrase Ol' Tricky Dick, if the police officer does it, that means that it is not illegal.

Y'know, if cops don't want to be seen as jackbooted thugs in service of a police state, they need to quit saying stuff like that.
ReplyDeleteOf course, it may be that they DO want to be seen as jackbooted thugs in service of a police state, in which case, Mr. Nick Rogers, U R doin' it rite!
