condoning racially motivated violence at his rallies
Source please

-Publicly offering to pay the legal fees of violent protesters charged with crimes.
-"The audience hit back.  That's what we need more of."
-"If you see someone getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them.  Would you?  Seriously.  Just knock the hell - I promise you, I will pay your legal fees.  I promise.  I promise."
-If someone else wins the nomination on a second or third ballot, "I think you'd have riots."
-Referring to protesters at his speeches, "In the good ole days, this didn't happen, because they used to treat them very rough.  We've become very weak."
-Referring to a black man assaulted at his rally, "Maybe he deserved to get roughed up."

Isn't he doing kind of serviceable with the black voting bloc considering how much shit he's got to contend with?

I thought he did better with Black voters than other candidates but I not 100 percent sure on that. Repubs just do shitty with non whites because of the Democratic machine and social pressure instilled by some to not be like whites within black communities and culture (calling other blacks coons pretty much).

Which is nonsense because historically the Republican Party fostered diversity and inclusion while the Democratic Party were the oppressors.  Lincoln freed the slaves (Republican).  Democrats were the party of Jim Crow and segregation.  The JFK assassination, which led to political pressure on LBJ (a massive racist) to support the Civil Rights Act, turned the tables.  Since then, the Republicans have gerrymandered themselves into oblivion with minority voters.  I was holding out hope that Marco Rubio could began to right the ship, but that didn't work out. 

I don't believe Trump is a racist.  However, I give him credit for knowing that many of his staunchest supporters, in fact, are.  He's effectively flirted the racial line for months now, by condoning racially motivated violence at his rallies, and by failing to condemn bigoted comments by his supporters.  Trump the man may not be racist, but Trump the campaign most certainly is.

Not every Star Wars movie is going to be great.  I'm fine with that.  But I guarantee you some of them are going to be total gems.  The universe is filled with generations of stories to tell.  I want to see them.

And damn it, I'll buy a ticket just to get that pure shot of nostalgia every time the Lucasfilm logo gleams, and we get the familiar "A long time ago..."

Oh and this trailer sucks b t dubs.

It's the opening line. The other says the Tesseract has been found on a HUMAN world.

"A" HUMAN world.

While it's old news that there is a cosmic story going on, it does hint that there are other human worlds.

What will this mean for the overall story?

Also, it implies that Thanos has had dealings with us before, which could be tge set up for the Inhumans.

Thoughts?

Like...Xandar?

I'll most likely turn on custom titles for the more high-ranking members once I fix the trust system, so there's your answer.
What about it needs fixing?
I'd like it to take more variables into account (posts-per-day, registration date, time online, etc.). It will still be mostly about trust ratings, but it will be harder to exploit the system.

Hubba hubba hubba, money money money, who do you trust?

Just sitting around and sorting through some coins and thought we could use a backup site in case this place gets attacked again. I know there's one on Bnet but the blinding effects of the site and crap layout makes it a drag to go on.

We could take care of the tax situation if we could remember a time before World War II.  Seems the gov't forgot it existed for more than seventy years.



Civil War spike, WWI spike, WWII spike, military industrial complex rise for the past half century.

It's common sense to expect a spike in debt during a war. However, the 1970s saw the elimination of the remaining gold standard, which is responsible for the debt increasing despite any wars during years

Ain't complaining about the spike in war years, it'd be problematic if there wasn't, wouldn't it?  Complaining about the fact that after WWII, which saw the biggest spike in spending and taxation in the history of mankind (gracias FDR), we've been awfully slow dropping her back down.  And now it's going in the opposite direction, because of overspending, globalization, inflation, a fiat currency, and my personal favorite, a caustic mix of paranoia and xenophobia.
