According to an Oxford University equality and diversity guide, avoiding eye contact with one’s peers is a racist micro-aggression that can lead to “mental ill-health.”

Serious observation:

I can't quite decide whether Hitler would have been flattered or offended by being hailed next to God by a bunch of undesireables.

Thank god we can divert the wall money to the Canadian border where we need it. Or at least get Canada to build it.

Drug Cartels Are Using Ford Fusions To Smuggle Curiously Cheap Weed Into Minnesota
Drug Cartels Are Using Ford Fusions

A string of drug busts in Minnesota involving marijuana being smuggled across the border in brand new Ford Fusions has triggered an ongoing investigation. It is believed that the cartel of former drug lord “El Chapo” is involved.

Between February and March of this year, about 1,100 pounds of marijuana was discovered hidden in the trunks of at least 22 new Ford Fusions that were made in Mexico. The weed was worth about $1.4 million, wrote Alpha News in an excellent and detailed report from (which you should definitely check out).

The St. Paul Police Department said in a police report that on Feb. 10, 2017, it was contacted by the local railway police with a narcotics complaint. They had received a railcar that held 15 cars from Mexico. Thirteen of the 15 had already been sent out to dealerships a few days before.

The remaining two 2017 Ford Fusions were to go out that day. When the truck driver went to do his pre-shipment inspection, he found big bundles of what seemed to be drugs in the spare tire compartment in both cars.

I guess the car thieves in Pinellas County are different?

Kids are driving Pinellas County’s car-theft epidemic.
It’s a dangerous — sometimes deadly — game.
Hot Wheels | investigations | Tampa Bay Times

The first time Allye Arroyave was arrested for stealing a car, she was embarrassed.

Not because she had led police on a multi-county chase in a Hyundai Sonata, topping out at 115 miles per hour, crossing medians into oncoming traffic, blowing more stop signs than deputies could count.

She just wished she had taken a better picture. “It’s the worst mugshot because, first of all, I was not ready,” Allye, now 17, told Times reporters in an interview at her home last fall. “My hair was frizzy and grown out. It was terrible.”

So it turns out that Rachael Leigh Cook, the insanely hot "this is your brain on drugs" girl from the 90s, is still insanely hot. But she's preaching a slightly different sermon:

real news:




1) Alt-left invents alt-right.
2) Alt-left labels everyone not alt-left as alt-right.
3) Alt-left threatens, attacks, and violently assaults everyone not alt-left.
4) Everyone labeled alt-right decides to act alt-right because it's funny

I am in 100% legalization of all drugs. I believe it will have a very strong and large positive effect on society. First and foremost it will put Cartel's out of business. I guarantee Walmart can producer cleaner and cheaper drugs they the Cartel's can. Secondly it will drastically reduce the number of people who die from taking tainted drugs. If you can roll up to a pharmacy and ask for clean heroin, that will greatly reduce they deaths from getting heroin mixed with fentanyl. Thirdly it will free up a ton of space in our prisons. We won't be jailing users, and Walmart will quickly put the street dealers out of business.

I don't believe that there would be any major increases in the use of harder drugs. Them being legal won't make people all of a sudden want to use them. Some people will try them out for sure, but I think it would be minimal amount in the grand scheme of things.
