inb4 some conservatard defends abortion protestors' right to assemble while claiming Occupy Wallstreet demonstrators should be executed on the spot, because this is 4chan and everyone has to be a contrarian shitlord.

Either way, everyone has a right to assemble. I may not agree with their retarded anti-abortion rhetoric, but I can just as easily choose to ignore their existence and not care.

And back to r*ddit you go.

I am pro choice solely because more abortions = less impoverished trash people on this earth

Killing babies is a net good for society. What a world we live in tbh

post the whole article, or at least the whole list

I don't want to click on that and give Steve Forbes adsense shekels

They get lame after #6

1. Merkel
2. Clinton
3. Yellen (Fed chair)
4. Gates
5. Barra (GM CEO)
6. Lagarde (IMF chair)
7. whogivesafuck (Facebook COO)
and a bunch more second-tier executives

Honestly I don't know why Gates and GM is so far up there seeing as GM is irrelevant for most of the world. I guess it's just because it's Forbes and they suck industry cock (or pussy in this case, but for Gates it's a man who chairs it anyway).

If anything it shows that women still have like zero power in the world compared to men.

If it didn't say (AP) I would have sworn this was a Fox News story with it's speculative fearmongering.

I gain an information leak from an informant: the attack carried out by the white supremacists to kill the white police officers who oppose racism against black and gain sympathy. They get a black scapegoat, bribe the news to distributed false information, use photo-shopping, and bribe the social media administrator to hack into BLM accounts. By glorifying the successful sniping, the white supremacists gain pride for their success while creating fear toward successful African-American.

If the Black Lives Matter are glorifying the attack right after carrying it out, then they would use a disorganized mob attacks which is way more practical and way more likely to succeed; they would not expose the identity of the sniper who are supposed to conceal their identity. Many African American are in the low class where they cannot afford the time and resource for such demanding military operation especially in a time with more peaceful political alternative.
The white supremacists, on the other hand, are more likely carry out the attack since they are more desperate to disrupt the political shift toward the left. They also have the wealth, connection, political authority, and time to carry out such attack. The white-supremacist snipers would be able to hide their skin color, escape with the secret assistant from certain police officers, and use the police officers to set up a black scapegoat.
A loosely-organized guerrilla organization without military training cannot possibly carry out a successful sniper attacks with its high risk. A sniper operation need high skills, knowledge of good hiding place in advance, and knowledge of enemy's movements in advance. Even if they can gain the skill with long-term intensive training, they also need to solve logistic problems: 1) How can some civilian smuggle an illegal weapon and the large amount of ammo for training? 2) How can some civilian maintain a complex weapon with many fragile parts? 3) How can they transport a non-portable sniper in an urban area? 4) Where can they find a large area for long-term sniper training?

>“Governor Abbott believes human and fetal remains should not be treated like medical waste, and the proposed rule changes affirms the value and dignity of all life,” Matthews said.

>Abortion-rights groups bristled at the new regulations, which were posted online for public comment July 1. That was four days after the nation’s high court struck down a pair of Texas restrictions that would have reduced the number of abortion clinics in the state to 10, down from more than 40 in 2012.

>“This is a new low for our state’s leaders who are committed to making abortion inaccessible and shaming Texans who have an abortion,” said Heather Busby, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Texas.

>Texas’ now-dismantled clinic restrictions required doctors who perform abortions to have admitting privileges at a nearby hospital and all abortion facilities to meet hospital-level operating standards.

>Rules surrounding fetal disposal are found in other states, too, including Ohio, where in June, the state agreed to pay Planned Parenthood more than $45,000 in legal bills as part of a dispute of such requirements. Ohio rules required fetuses to be disposed in a “humane” matter but didn’t further define humane. Planned Parenthood accused the state of changing the interpretation and then unfairly targeting the organization.

So is abortion morally right or wrong? And what should the law be?

I don't even care much about the abortion debate, but at this point the anti-abortionists are being childish. Texas, a state where you can shoot someone for standing on your lawn, is taking a stance on the dignity of human life? This is purely retaliation meant to fuck with the women getting the abortions. It's not helping anyone, there's no justice being served, nothing is going to be prevented, and it's going to cost people a lot of money. What is the motivation here? It seems totally antagonistic to me.

She’s right that the omission is glaring; Healy mentions Obama only in passing and only obliquely with respect to the racial question (he notes that Obama’s was a “historic candidacy” that “appealed across party lines”).
Meanwhile, the president has come in for harsh criticism from the right. City Journal’s Myron Magnet:

“True to form, Obama went into grievance-mongering mode on July 7. .... His familiar conclusion: “If you add it all up, the African American and Hispanic population, who make up only 30 percent of the general population, make up more than half of the incarcerated population. Now, these are facts. And when incidents like this occur, there’s a big chunk of our fellow citizenry that feels as if because of the color of their skin, they are not being treated the same. And that hurts.”...

“If you want to ignite race riots, a sure-fire way to do it is to stir up black hatred and suspicion of cops, which will in turn make cops warier of blacks and more trigger-happy, and so on, until an explosion occurs. So thanks, President Obama. You have set back American race relations by 50 years.”

The National Interest’s Robert Merry recalls Obama’s response to the Ferguson, Mo., riots in 2014:

“In the midst of it, President Obama weighed in with ill-considered remarks that positioned himself as the arbiter of just where the proper balance should be struck in the fast-moving and perilous standoff between thousands of protesters, with significant looting and rock-throwing going on, and the authorities charged with ensuring that this highly charged situation didn’t flip out of control and lead to serious bloodshed. His admonitory words, directed at both protesters and local government officials, implied a moral equivalence of the two sides, which served to undermine the standing of local officials.”

Some of the criticism is well placed. In particular, it would be better for Obama (or any president) to speak in soothing generalities and avoid opining on matters that have yet to be investigated.

But we’d like to offer a qualified defense of the president. It seems to us his statement that “there’s a big chunk of our fellow citizenry that feels as if because of the color of their skin, they are not being treated the same” is undeniably true, and for him not to acknowledge it in some way would be a breach of faith with black voters.
Further, those feelings are not irrational. City Journal’s Steven Malanga writes:

“As Heather Mac Donald has observed, more than 6,000 blacks die of homicides yearly, the overwhelming majority of which are committed by other blacks in minority neighborhoods. The police are more likely to patrol these neighborhoods because that’s where the crime is.”

True enough, but that also heightens the danger to civilians, including innocent ones, in those neighborhoods.
One needn’t be a bien-pensant liberal to acknowledge that side of the problem. The Hill quotes Newt Gingrich, who said the other day: “It took me a long time and a number of people talking to me over the years to begin to get a sense of this: If you are a normal, white American, the truth is you don’t understand being black in America and you instinctively underestimate the level of discrimination and the level of additional risk.” (We wish he hadn’t said “normal,” but otherwise it was well stated.)

The recent turmoil has drawn comparisons to 1968—a comparison the president rejected in a news conference Saturday:

“So when we start suggesting that somehow there’s this enormous polarization, and we’re back to the situation in the ’60s—that’s just not true. You’re not seeing riots, and you’re not seeing police going after people who are protesting peacefully. You’ve seen almost uniformly peaceful protests. And you’ve seen uniformly police handling those protests with professionalism.”

If last week turns out to be as bad as it gets, then it will be true that 1968 was much worse. On the other hand, the president’s account is too rosy. It’s true we haven’t seen riots this year, but we did see them last year in Baltimore, as well as in Ferguson in 2014. And “almost” does an awful lot of the work in that penultimate sentence, especially after Dallas.

One analogy to 1968 does seem pertinent. That year came not long after the landmark civil-rights legislation of 1964-65. The current turmoil follows by a few years the election of the first black president. “Then as now, the passing of an important political milestone had raised unrealistic expectations, especially among the young, of immediate social transformation,” we observed in December 2014.

Most unorganized organization i've ever seen

It's just a twitter hashtag

Its an organization. You can question the veracity of their claims or the zealots among their ranks but they still function as a coherent entity.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Shouldn't these be dismissed without merit? surely phone companies or a coffee shop or something have been sued in the past for something similar.

>None were harmed, but Iranian interrogators "employed intimidation tactics such as slapping the table, spinning the captive's chair, or threatening to move them to the Iranian mainland".
Despite the errors, the US Navy also insisted its boats "had every right" to be where they were and said Iran had "violated international law as well as US sovereign immunity" by boarding and seizing them.
Damn USA... your Government are a bunch of pussies.
