Comment on Gissa Drink! (2009-02-22 10:39:28)
There is a video of this. Its nuts. Koala's don't usually drink water. They also don't like people. So it was definately very desparate. Oh and RSIxidor is right it put its burnt hand in his because it was cold from water dripping.

Comment on Torture FOIA Request (2008-06-01 08:42:37)
Lol @FSM I am well aware how women were treated under the Taliban. But you say things are better off under Karzai? In Kabul perhaps... But everywhere else there he means nothing. The rest of the country is controlled by warlords who are in many cases as bad as the Taliban. The added extra is now the people have the added concern of some warlord attacking their village and all the trimmings that come with having a ruling class who puts their own power before the people. Btw feel free to look into how well civic services are operating there I do believe you'll find it worse as their leaders also have the added cost and problems assciated with fighting one another. Additionally if their are so many jobs why is the heroin trade getting so massive? Why are children smoking the stuff because its cheaper then medical care? In Iraq? Exactly why do the people hate you? Why does the average Joe go plant IED's? You may have freed them from Saddam but freed them to a civil war. You might say we had no choice they were a threat to us... But where are the WMD's? Why were no ties to terrorists found? The Islamic militants only arrived after americans. When they arrived saying america is evil it made sense to the people as their country had been blown to pieces and abu ghraib. Funny that, torture pissing the people off? Finally you seem to hold the belief america is doing good and helping these people with wars... Well why didn't you help Afghanistan after their war with the soviets. The second the soviets withdrew american support was withdrawn. This led to a civil war which eventually allowed the Taliban to take power in turn letting Bin laden set up operations. Wouldn't a little aid then be are cheaper then a war costing billions a week now? Not to mention the lives cost. Torture is the easy answer to difficult and dangerous problems. But avoiding the problems in the first place is a much better idea. Sadly wars make powerful people rich and ignorant people who think wars and violent measures like torture are a good idea make allow them to get away with it.

@st_judas your intellegent and on the interents wtf? @FMS You sir are missing one very important point. You make it sound as if ticking time bomb situations are necessary because evil pieces of shit will always be trying to blow us up. How about we avoid pissing them off to begin with? I mean the guy you mention in your IED story was probably perfectly normal until an off course JDAM killed his whole family for a pointless war. Now before you say we are giving Iraq freedom how about we look at Afghanistan? One oppressive regime has simply been replaced with war lords who are in some cases worse. Torture is ineffective and does lower us to the level of people like Nazis. Just because your country didn't have the foresight to avoid dangerous situations doesn't mean it can ignore basic human rights. Oh and btw ignoring human rights will eventually leave us as morally corrupt as our supposed enemies no matter how you spin it.
Comment on Yellowcard? (2008-04-28 03:15:07)
Amen wally! A slow ass unprotected, meandering, unpredictable cyclist on busy peak hour street is just asking for trouble. When they get said trouble I have no sympathy for them. @42 I do hope some one will try throwing something from a bike through my windshield one day. Then i will have every excuse in the world to swerve erratically and run them the hell down. I wont have windshield. They will be dead. Think about that. Picture is lame though.
Comment on Biker Yellow Card (2008-04-22 19:56:10)
LMAO First poster had it spot on. If i got one of these attached to my car the odds of me swerving to avoid the next bullshit illegal and just plain dangerous move a cyclist moves would fall drastically low. "He cut across, I didn't see it coming, then bam, it all happened so fast officer". Cyclists will have to start taking notice of road rules besides those that mean we have to avoid them before I start caring how many get hit.
