Hm... Snowden's citizenship has been cancelled by US authorities after he left Hong-Kong. So it seems that Snowden-like method of renunciation is much more preferred in terms of costs & paper work.

Snowden can't travel outside Russia, and even inside Russia, there is a constant threat of the CIA either abducting or harming him. His property in the United States has been frozen, and he is barred from meeting his family members. Do you want yourself in such a situation? And that too, for the rest of your life? I don't think so.

Translated, you mean there are some fat slobs of excuses for CIA type agents who would rather go after an easy target like Snowden than some actual bad guy terrorists that might very likely shoot back.

Yep, that sounds plausible.  No, it's not exactly right.  Yes, the agents could do better for their country.

So a few women in a lab has finally solved this question and applied it to the whole human race. Sounds legit.

This new found fact certainly has reduced the available pool of marriage and long term relationship partners. 

We (guys) have just been informed that every one of our women is cheating on us since they are all bisexual or gay.

(NOT!  LOL....)

I can confirm this, the girls in my class touch each other all the time, so much that im not even surprised to see it at lunch time

Now that you think about it, I remember my highschool years, so many naughty girls there touching eachother.

They even kissed eachother once, it was so weird, and none of them were official lesbians, so it's strange  Huh

And in numerous cultures, men hug and kiss each other on the cheek when they meet or part.

Gestures of affection are simply not clues to sexual orientation.

Violence has become a way of life in South Africa, especially in the black majority townships. And this has been going on for ages. Remember the clashes between the ANC and the IFP supporters in 1992 and 1993? The IFP supporters committed several massacres, including the infamous Boipatong massacre. But earlier, the violence was mostly between two political parties. Now it is happening between the South African Blacks and the migrants.
although those acts of violence were committed by black people in both the AFP and the ANC, they were funded and trained by the remaining conservatives of the NP, to demonstrate "the black mans inability to remain civilised "

Bah.  Even at a bus strop, the blacks group by tribal.  And they won't get on a bus if it is full of a different tribe.  Might well get killed, if they did.

Get one of those .22 drum fed automatics that shoots over 2000 rounds a minute. You can carve a lot of things up with it.

Smiley

That would still most likely just piss off an elk and make it uncomfortable with a bunch of small lead lumps under it's hide.  I've got a 300 win mag for these animals.  If I need to take them from my newly prepared area I could probably do so with a 12 ga slug due to the topography, but I would like to make this be an area where they feel safe and comfortable.  I checked yesterday and there is cropped grass and elk droppings so it is working.  This winter I'll prepare some more area as pasture for this purpose.  I hope to fill both of my tags from the ridge in a different part of my property, and do the shooting from the valley floor.  That's what the win mag is good for.

Yep, you got all that right.  And you don't want to go on a half hour hunt for that bleeding animal, and then haul the carcass back.  Question - are you of the opinion the 223 is no good for this?  What distance, anyway?

Oh, regarding the 2000 rpm suggestion.  Nope, you'd get exactly one shot at that elk.  See, that little sting makes him move.

I sure would not try with a .223 unless I were very desperate and starving.  I don't pretend to be an expert, but given the size of these animals I think you would be dependent on having enough luck to hit an artery or some similar vulnerable spot.  I suspect that a lung shot would kill it, but it would die 10 miles away and you would only find it by following the vultures a few days later.

You make a very good point about getting one shot at an elk though again, I'm hardly a professional.  I do have some experience with a .223 from my days in the military (though I've never been shot of course) and also experience with the densely foliage in my area as well as the behavior and capabilities of the creatures.

It is interesting that the the Federal box of 300 win-mag shells claims that they are suitable for small game like deer and not larger game like elk, and certainly not for dangerous game.  I suspect that they are err'ing on the side of caution.  The ballistics indicate that I should be able to take most shots available in my area.  Lots and lots of elk around here have fallen to 30-06 which is inferior to 300 wm in most respects.


OKay, I just read a full ballistics report on the 300.  Yep, that is pretty darn impressive.

New thread to replace one unfairly smearing Israelis as responsible.

I suggest the Usual Suspects.

Keyser Soze?

No seriously - break down your motives? I can't see the clear reason to kill that many people, I'd be surprised if it was a Western government.

I don't see who benefits. ....

This is the question I have been asking about the LONG, LONG tradition of bombing airliners out of the sky by MUSLIM TERRORISTS.

It starts with Yassir Arafat.

Somehow in their minds it makes sense.

I see it only as a diffuse and vague "War against the Western World."

But may I am totally wrong - probably so...

I guess, as usual it was one or more secret services plus some random extremists as scapegoats. It was pretty interesting when the well organized terrorist who even cared to put back a shoe what felt from their car, just left an ID in the same car (just like in the case of the twin towers)... and a some other anomalies like when the "terrorists" shot a police officer in the head at point blank range with an AK, but no blood at all... the mysterious suicide of an other police officer.
You know, a whole lot of crooks have been caught like fleeing the bank they just robbed because they had a broken tail light.....

Bomb on a Catering beverage Cart brought down the Airbus A321-200.

Bosses at the catering company which delivered food onto the doomed jet on the morning of the crash have now been interrogated by Egyptian investigators as a result.

Rumours of ‘Arab man’ committing murders led to destruction of foreign national-owned shops in Grahamstown

An outbreak of violence against foreign nationals in South Africa has highlighted the government’s failure to get to grips with xenophobia, amid worries that there is more violence to come.

It started, as these things so often do, with a rumour. An “Arab man with a beard” was said to be responsible for a string of murders and mutilations in Grahamstown in the Eastern Cape. It ended with violence and fire and destruction, and an unmistakeable message to foreigners: you are no longer welcome here.

Grahamstown is a quaint, quiet university town, largely unremarkable except for the density of its churches and for the fact its faultlines are so obvious and so often mirror South Africa’s as a whole.

The country’s racial tensions are obvious in Grahamstown’s town planning, where most white people still live in pleasant houses with large gardens, and most black people in the huge neighbouring township with few streetlights and little in the way of running water. Its absurd wealth inequalities are embodied by the distance of a few streets between the professors dining in fancy restaurants and the desperately poor sex workers servicing truck drivers for a few coins.

Now Grahamstown is exposing yet another of South Africa’s dirty secrets, in the way a community turned – brutally and without warning – on the foreign nationals working in its midst, incited by the alleged foreignness of the murder suspect.

A little over two weeks ago, on a Wednesday, a protest by taxi drivers for better roads morphed into a looting spree in which more than 300 shops were targeted, and some burned to the ground.

22LR rifles are allowed for trainings and hunting, but in order to be a hunter, you have to have lots of money and passion for drinking after every hunt. About .22 pistols - honestly, I have no idea.

That's news to me.  I hunt because I and my friends and family like the meat which is not infused with whatever they are putting into factory-farmed animals and I can help the Fish and Wildlife people achieve the ecological balance that they would like for the herds in the area.  I have enough land to get elk tags automatically though.

22 ain't gonna work for that, unless you want to go tracking.

Get one of those .22 drum fed automatics that shoots over 2000 rounds a minute. You can carve a lot of things up with it.

I find it very suspicious that even before the intermediate investigation results were known, as evidence was still being collected, first US and then UK came out with statement that according to their sources it was a bomb...
I don't.   Quite a few countries simply don't have government or private staff with training to investigate aircraft crashes, and call in the US to help.

As for your immediate suspicion, all it takes is the chemical analysis of explosion residue on items from the plane to state "bomb."   That isn't exactly requiring any sort of "conclusion" of intermediate investigation results.  It IS the conclusion.

Inviting different genetics was probably essential to prevent various diseases related to incest. That's what happens when blond/e Aryans only have sex with other blond/e Aryans for several generations. They might be retarded, but they did something right. Their problem seems to be a broader inability to understand things like "unintended side-effects" of their control-freak desire to make their society run like a machine.

I got this theory that the major problem IS letting people with control-freak desires in positions of authority, period.

It's just that currently it may be radical feminazis.

Another place and time, it could be religious wackos.  Like muslims.

I'm not even going to waste my time reading through the entire article claiming this..
If you use the word "Never, Every, or Always" you're wrong.

There are CERTAINLY women uninterested in other females, and in fact I personally have seen women disgusted by the thought of touching another woman.
To say any absolutes about human-sexuality is foolish and ignorant.

With simple Pavlovian training you could get women to exhibit sexual stimulation when viewing circus clowns.

The assertions of the study are ridiculous.

Egypt is in deep shit now. After the Giza shooting and the massacre of the Mexican tourists, this incident was the last straw. The Egyptian tourist industry is never going to recover from this.

I'm certain that some would like the tourists to keep coming.

Because the more innocent they are, the better headlines the murders make.

tl;dr: africans harrases and rapes little girl. Principal silences the matter, claims boys will be boys, calls the parents racist and force the girl to keep going to the same school as the perpetrators.

Fuck the principal.  He's just worried about keeping his job.

The boys and the girls are all under 15, so it is not a criminal charge but juvenile charges.

The article notes the police have gotten involved, so justice is possible.
