Things that made you swear today.

I am, however, also done with this conversation as the point of the thread was to post what made me swear today...which this did.
 
You are right. The right has never tried to assist rapists or minimize the crime of rape.
Oh, wait, you are wrong.
Here's two quick examples


1. http://www.senate.gov/legislative/L...ote_cfm.cfm?congress=111&session=1&vote=00308

2. Palin requiring women to pay for their own 'rape kits'

That is not what I said. Or what you implied in your first statement. You implied that through legislation the Right supports accusers and is unsympathetic to victims.

As for Sarah Palin? She's fucking stupid. But I agree with her on that issue.
 
You're attacking a man from a histrionic basis, not a logical one. His legislation addresses something our law already asserts. You are innocent until proven guilty. The word victim implies that a crime happened, which by law it has not, until the courts said so.

I'm afraid I must disagree with this statement. The word 'victim' does imply that a crime happened, but your assertion that the courts have to say so for it to be valid is incorrect. The courts determine whether a particular accused suspect committed said crime. They do not attempt to determine whether or not it took place at all.

If anything, that may happen at the level where the DA decides whether enough evidence exists to file charges. But even if they don't file charges, they don't try to claim that the crime never happened, only that they won't waste time trying to prove something they cannot prove.

You're wrong. The burden of proof in a criminal court is three fold.

1. They must establish a crime actually occurred.
2. They must establish a motive for the accused to commit the crime.
3. They must establish that the accused committed the crime.

And they must establish all three of those things beyond a reasonable doubt.
 
Sinking knee deep in snow while trying to walk in town...HONESTLY, ASSHATS....LEARN TO FECKING PLOW...
 
Scooby fucking doo. Enough already. What started out as a little change of bed time routine has come back to bite me!
 
...after being told by Mr Brit to be careful of the bruise on my forehead I didn't know I had, trying to locate it and sticking a finger right in the sodding thing! :rolleyes:

(Apparently I managed to pass out forwards and smack my forehead on the floor upon landing - nice going huh?)

But you're really okay, right?

I'm sorry, why are you passing out?????

Yeah, thanks to the pain meds I'm good ;)

Got blinding stomach pains late last night and the next thing I knew I was in the hospital. Apparently I went very pale, passed out (banging my head in the process) and Mr Brit sensibly called an ambulance. Got suspected appendicitis (typing from the hospital bed now, in a stunning gown I might add!) so waiting on test results to see if I can go home tomorrow as nothing has yet shown up.
Am ok really...honest... :)

'suspected appendicitis' <> 'ok'!
jeez, woman!
:heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:
 
Yeah don't scare us like that, Brit.
Thoughts and well wishes go out to you.
 
I was minding my own buisness farming cloth when Horde killed me then camped my body for 2 hours.

Yes I actually did swear, every last colorful epitaph I know and then I made a few more up. :)

Did I mention that I dislike camping Horde immensely!

*keeping his mouth quiet*

Blizzard makes me want to swear.....asshats...stop making crappy games dammit.
 
LI, you are ten levels of stupidly wrong. You and I are having a chat later, sugar. Just a heads up.

Brit! Take care of you sweets, we rather like that beautiful brain of yours!
 
I fucking hate the superbowl, and the man who has dragged her off because of it.

Can't speak for the gal, but I second hating the super bowl (and football in general....grown men slapping each other's arses and handling their balls *shakes head*)

And that's why I don't play MMOs (that and the monthly fees, though I may suffer them when that 40k MMO comes out).
 
Allergies, again. Oh, my, god, the allergies!

And also the slamming of my finger in the dresser drawer this morning. Ugh.

Refs who are less able to tell the difference between an incomplete pass and a fumble than someone who can't stand the sport to begin with.
