Facebook should censor people they don't like just like restaurants and stores should be able to choose who they serve/sell to. Am I doing this right? Private companies AMIRITE

Alex Jones needs to either turn gay or "non binary" and then he can post up whatever nonsense he wants.

This is literally the invisible hand of the market at work - the social media companies lost stock value, revenue, users, over this specific issue and responded by removing the content that the broad base of their customers/users had an issue with. The terms of use do not guarantee any user a right of free speech or freedom from censorship, you are in their house and you play by their rules, he didn't and the only problem I see here is they had to wait for it to cost them money before they did something about it, and they aren't going far enough by singling him out.

I'm not sure/aware of them losing money/stock/users because of Alex Jones. I know Facebook is losing users because it's a lame platform, that is easily used to influence people using fake news and used only by "old people" (by teenager standards).

It's easy to identify what porn/nudity is, it's something everyone can agree on. You post nudity - you get banned. Now when it comes to political/social believes, it's not quite so cut and dry.

The left will post up videos on how there are an infinite amount of genders out there and if you assume someone's gender it should be considered assault or go on rants about white/male/white-male privilege, all just as crazy and probably more dangerous believes to be spreading around as anything Alex Jones has ever said. Now if the right makes a video to argue against any of these things, or post their crazy believes of lizard people and god knows what else, they get demonetized or banned.

I notice a bias, and it's wrong.

Everyone gets an opinion or nobody does. Moving one step closer to facism everyday.

I'm with you. No matter how much of a insane douche Alex Jones is he should be allowed to put his bullshit out there, just like how the crazy left is allowed to put their bullshit out there. These are private companies, and I understand that they have and should have every right to ban him, but I don't think they did the right thing, especially considering that YouTube and Facebook are the most viewed sites on the planet (after Google), so you're doing large scale censoring.

In even crazier news...

One of the most dangerous construction-related carcinogens is now legally allowed back into U.S. manufacturing under a new rule by the Environmental Protection Agency

As the world’s largest exporter of asbestos, the Russian company Uralasbest operates an enormous open mine nearly half the size of Manhattan in a mountainous town 900 miles northeast of Moscow

a controversial post on Uralasbest's Facebook page showing photos of company pallets stamped with a seal of U.S. President Donald Trump’s face.

I'd probably go for something like this

It's an 6spd auto, what are the manuals? 5 or 6spd? If they're 5, I'd be willing to guess that the autos get better MPG on the highway.

I can't believe this guy was willing to legally give up all his male privilege.

A Canadian man legally changed his gender to female so he could take advantage of better car insurance rates offered to women and save up nearly $1,100 Canadian Dollars

“The emails definitely show that the police lied about it being a prostitution and human trafficking mission,” the whistleblower said.

 

I'm shocked!

I dont know who's worse, people who take portrait videos or people who take screenshots of pictures online and then emails the screenshot :dumb:

Ordered. $7 deal from ecs got charged tax, $6 to ship it and it took 3 days

Dang. Must've been a drop-ship part? If it's in-stock and my order is $49+ then I get it the next day and shipping is free.

I'm not sure if this will hurt anything. People are used to paying taxes, maybe not always online but that's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

Maybe it will get people to buy from in state companies now. For me, when I buy stuff from ECS (located in Ohio), it was 50/50, I had to pay tax but I get everything delivered the next day with the lowest tier shipping (free).

I've replaced screens on phones a couple times myself. It's getting harder and harder to do it yourself. It's at the point where parts cost nearly as much as just having it done professionally, plus you should some kind of warranty on the work.

That being said...the S8 plus doesn't look too difficult, but I do get nervous when it comes to glued on screens.

President Donald Trump says he meant the opposite when he said in Helsinki that he doesn’t see why Russia would have interfered in the 2016 U.S. elections.

 

Back at the White House on Tuesday, the president told reporters that he said he meant he doesn’t see why Russia “wouldn’t” be responsible.

Fucking Trump :lol:

He is literally the WORST

I like it.

There used to be a group of Land Rover owners that would go offroading at The Wilds. I always wanted to go participate but never got to it when I owned my LRs.

Spaghetti on the wall.

You're the second person today I've heard comparing him to pasta.

Supposedly the arresting Detective Steve Rosser had a bunch pro Trump posts on his FB before he deleted his account. He also has a history of entrapment.

The Columbus City Council voted on Monday night to withdraw its objection to The Goat’s liquor-license renewal, after a judge said police had entrapped several of the bar’s employees and found them not guilty of serving alcohol to someone younger than 21. Judge David Tyack ruled that Columbus police detective Steve Rosser induced six of the Northeast Side bar’s employees to sell alcohol to an underage person who came in with him.

2 other girls were arrested and their charges were not dropped

They're regular employees, Stormy got off on a technicality.

For a hot second I thought about going to Vanity for the lols but I figured that place would've been a madhouse. Who here is willing to admit they were there last night? One of you assholes were probably there already, business as usual, when all of a sudden shit got busy in there

My wife and I are interested in the "Howard360" concept, where I could DL content (videos, interviews, bits) on demand, for all of Howard's 23,000+ hours.

Yeah...so I'm not sure if I have that or not. All I see that's different on the app is that they upload video clips now from time to time a day or 2 later. If that's all it is, I'm a bit disappointed.

I can do 3 days a week as those days are usually well-contented with interviews and bits...plus, I don't get everything in one day anyway, it's nice to hear a repeat on an off-day to catch what I may have missed.

I can deal with 3 days a week, just that combined with his vacation time I feel is a lot.

2. The no touching law is supposed to be enforced against patrons to prevent "unwanted" touching - I don't know that it was ever intended to be enforced against dancers but they are the ones most affected by it because it creates a "no touch zone".

A law to protect the dancer gets the dancer arrested.

https://www.10tv.com/article/police-stormy-daniels-grabbed-backside-undercover-columbus-officer

The report says when the officers approached the stage, Daniels held the face of the female officer between her breasts. It also says she did the same to a male officer. The report says Daniels fondled the buttocks and breasts of another officer. At that point, court documents say a fourth officer exited the club to request assistance to make an arrest.

Sounds like your typical Wednesday at the titty bar. So there were 4 cops there...must've not been any other real crimes being committed that night.

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/12/us/stormy-daniels-arrested-strip-club-columbus.html

The charges “stem from an allegation that while performing, she engaged in touching with customers who turned out to be undercover vice officers,”

So first I thought it's pretty convenient that 3 undercover cops just happened to be there on the night that the person who is currently having legal battles with the POTUS.

As someone who has on occasion found myself in situations that resemble these that the undercovers have found themselves in...I decided to look up up the law and came across this article.

http://www.dispatch.com/news/20170930/ohios-strip-club-law-rarely-cited-over-last-decade

A state law enacted 10 years ago to restrict sexual activity and limit operating hours at strip clubs and adult book stores has been spottily enforced, and in some cases not at all.

So on top of everything, it's a law that pretty much never gets enforced...unless it's the one night, at the same venue that Stormy Daniels happened to be in.

The Community Defense Act, as it was called, was approved in 2007 at the urging of Citizens for Community Values, a Cincinnati-based conservative religious organization.

Of course, why wouldn't it be a religious organization

Fearing that was unconstitutional, legislators substituted a provision prohibiting patrons from touching a nude or semi-nude dancer, or their clothing, in a club, anywhere on the premises or the parking lot. This excludes members of the dancer’s immediate family

:dumb: At least you can touch your daughter when you're visiting her at the strip club

Nice trifecta of M's you got there.

In my 15 years on this forum I've never seen somebody reply to somebody else's intro with their own intro.

This reply looks stupid

I'm not real familiar with newer bikes, nor would I be buying one. I've ridden liter bikes from the early 2000's and they are more comfortable than any 600 I have ridden.

I have an 02 gsxr 600 sitting in my garage - pretty much for show only these days and the occasional shelf...but all bikes were a bit wider and more comfortable back then. I promise you it's more comfortable than an 05+ 1000.
