I'd like to thank the guy Who wrote the song That made my baby Fall in love with me
So to start off with, he at the time, already admits to the borrowed lyrics.
But I always had a slightly different opinion on the meaning of the chorus.
For me it was always a true secondary question. A racial one. Did a black man write the lyrics my “baby” loves.
The song doesn’t question who “sung” but who “put” or wrote.
That aside… we have this:
Boogity boogity boogity
Boogity boogity boogity shoo
Which is claimed to be a reference to CC’s song, pony, according to a few sources (see genius) but that’s not completely accurate alone.
That itself, the song, comes from a demo recording of Screaming Jay where he put his later-famous play hoodoo persona on display. Popping back into a recording session wearing a cape and white mask:
Whispering
“Boogity boogity boogity”
And then yelling
“boo! “
That outtake is available on the When Radio Was/Time/Life Tape/Recored set I Put A Spell On You: Best of Screaming Jay.
Which furthers my opening
I see a frat boy in desperate need to understand his footing in life when he’s pulling lyrics from black singers.
So he’s not just complaining about lyrics he borrowed, but borrowed lyrics he borrowed.
If a group like this is such as a top concern for you, I, honestly, feel sorry for you! To live in such constant fear.
That you would elevate such a group to an actual terrorist threat such as AQ or IRA or the PLF etc.
These oath keepers are literal nobodies.
A few land standoffs? Only one of which was violent. And they had members on the 6th?
So arrest those that break the law. Oh, wait, the government did.
as if the rise of such groups is not in itself notable and concerning.
There’s no “rise”
they’ve always been there and likely always will be. Little groups of idiots.
Be it the oath keepers or the ALF. Such groups exist. They pop up. And disappear. They come and go. Sometimes, every once in a great while, someone gets violent. Sometimes I agree with one or more of the causes. Sometimes I don’t.
But I definitely disagree with the methods.
Where’s all the concern about the actions of Tracy Stone-Manning?
Even if I support her cause (in much broader overlying theory) tree spiking is a deadly act of sabotage.
then your reaction might be somewhat different
Then you continue to invent meaning not stated in my words.
I’m against breaking the law to make a point. You have a right to your thoughts and a right to make them public. Just do it lawfully. I’m not against BLM. The cause is just even if I disagree with their embellished claims. An I happen to think all lives matter. Not just a single race. And that they all matter equally.
So, it's interesting that you didn't bother to look into who those groups were…
I don’t need to look into it. I heard they were arrested. That’s all the more that matters to me. After that it’s up to a jury to decide.
I don’t care “who” was involved. Were they arrested? That’s the end of my concern.
See: under this chain of links you (and democrats in this country) create: Trump is somehow responsible for people who happened to be his supporters and the actions they took.
By that same linking the current leader of our country, a declared catholic, should be held directly accountable for the murder of doctors, and the sexual assault of children, the genocide of countries…!
I don’t blame the pope for the acts nazi fuckoffs.
I don’t blame trump for acts of nazi fuckoffs.
I don’t blame the whole of nazi fuckoffs for the acts of some of their adherents.
I blame nazi fuckoffs for the criminal acts they themselves commit.
The same goes BLM, and 1/6. And here. The oath keepers.
OK, so why are you defending Oath Keepers?
I’m not and didn’t. I simply don’t care. I’ll worry about them if they become a threat locally. At the moment they’re not a problem worth my concern. (The chance of this group even remotely harming our government is minimal!)
I’m not worried about some little group somewhere that isn’t a threat to me.
I’m a little more concerned about the prospects of Iran or China dripping a nuke on a city centre not far from my location. One of which I’m well within the blast radius of!
The violent looting that has happened within 5 miles of my location.
The car jackings happening just a few streets away. The violent home invasions in the area. The crime spike over the last 18 months.
So you worry about a tiny group that’s hardly caused a blip and their potential actions.
I’ll continue to worry about real issues happening right here right now.
Maybe if I wasn’t so worried about my own community, I’d have more time to worry about some tin soldiers over a thousand miles away.
They have broken no laws within my immediate area. That being 200 miles or so from where I live.
Not enough to show up in local news. Not close enough to be a threat here.
You act surprised people in politics are members of groups they support.
I don’t really have a problem till they commit illegal acts.
And just like the anti police protests, or the counter protests.
I don’t have a problem if you follow the rules. Follow the law.
that's been involved in violence with the expressed promise of more if things don't go the way they want them to…
Yet you yourself have stated in previous posts that sometimes violence is the last resort people move to for change.
The problem isn’t the ideological groups. It’s the sheltering of criminal elements within them.
Be it police, BLM, Antifa, or some right wing group.
Unlike you, and others on the “left” of our country’s politics, I don’t waiver on my belief of law.
I don’t make exceptions. I draw the line between complaints and protests, and breaking the law.
A line between belief and act.
Oh, and I can recognise that someone can agree with a premise despite others going further.
See I have zero doubt, the video evidence shows it, that some people who were in the BLM protest were later walking out of stores with stolen goods.
And I don’t doubt the few people were actually broke the law in the 6th had links to right-wing groups.
Doesn’t surprise me at all. Such eco-chamber groups breed fringes that move to criminal acts.
And you prosecute those law breakers.
So, you're saying that you know that there are dangerous paramilitary organisations operating in your area
I’ve seen nothing to suggest any militia group in my area.
look for the name and research what everyone else is talking about
I clicked the link in the article. Given I’ve never heard of them prior to this it’s far from “everyone” talking about some small group somewhere.
I looked at the Wikipedia article. Looks like just another extremist group. Nothing really special about them.
Comparison to the IRA is a fallacy.
These groups are just wannabe tin soldiers. Any focus just gives them more exposure.
What do you suggest be done? Some sort of pre-crime method?
I don’t support that in any situation. You punish what is done, not what may be done.
I don’t get what it is your trying to pull out of me. All I said was the linked page didn’t say much negative.
You seem to miss the point with me. I don’t care who commits crimes. Arrest them. Until then: as long as you don’t break the law so be it. The premise of a free society is not the freedom to be popular, but to be counter.
Like it or not! As long as you don’t break the law in action you can think whatever you want.
I’m not sure what your on about. Not knowing one group doesn’t equate to head-in-the-sand.
There are many little militias around the country. Most of them are right wing white suprematist christian turds!
And most of them are dangerous. I agree!
You know, I had a late 70s IBM electric typewriter. Had memory, 3 line display, disk drive, the whole bloody kit!
Run out of ribbon?
Useless. Ignore the fact that the floppy disk could store files. Display them. Etc. It was a doorstop without a new ribbon.
I’ve always liked Samsungs (pre-2016) and Brother. Indestructible!
I have a Samsung xPress going on, I lost track how many years. That’s been abused to hell and back. Dust. Dirt. Grime. Grit. As in literally concrete dust. Damn thing still prints 30+ pages a minute!
Canon is reliable but the ink is a bit of a pain in the arse. Like Xerox.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Here's the difference though
What does Benghazi have to do with anything?
investigate what can be done to defend the nation the next time some group doesn't like the outcome of an election
More accurately next time a group of people get mad at the government. For any reason. Why is the capital building constantly breached over and over and over.
Why do they neither have things in place to STOP such breaches.
But instead they seek to find personal blame for Trump despite the unequivocal “March peaceful” declaration.
That much is clear as they continue to speak of “his actions” and “his words”none of which remotely called for violent conflict.
Maybe, go to the actual source of the problem?
How is the capital so poorly defended that dozens of people can simple storm in unhindered.
Because if this had been an actual insurrection rather than a protest turned violent? If there had actually been hundreds of people with intent on overthrow? Not just some tin hat militia wannabes?
Because the focus should be on how yet again a small gaggle of dissidents forced their way into the inner halls.
And what would happen if there ever was a real insurrection!
Seriously, how many times must this happen before congress learns to put aside differences and figure out a way to protect everyone in that building!
I stumbled across a ToeTag shorts montage the other day and it started with a notice that it was offensive. Uh, DUH!
When you come across something called ToeTag presents Brain Butcher Collection… you should expect that. No?
Like, it’s supposed to be offensive.
And I’m not complaining about tagging and flagging etc.
It’s exactly what allows content to stay up.
But there should be zero doubt what both parties are looking for with legal changes. Censorship. ‘My opinion, not yours’!
Well, with platforms now panicking about social responses AND congress… the whole take down thing is turning into a circus.
Everyone is flagging everything no matter what the content is.
I’d love to see what these people would do with the nightly news broadcasts. Say:

Is used in commercial boards… shifts the burden to the ratings organisation. I think the guy is the king of arse output, the scat rat. But he deserves this cjanc to defend his “honour” dispute his POS outward appearance.
Re: Re: Re: Re: The problems of a tech-illiterate judicial syste
Maybe.
I’ll say this to make a few things clear and move on.
All coming from a person with a LONG history in gaming tech (Guide JamPro/JamPro1/LostInLoDos/GuideLowDos)
There are 4 types of acceptable arcade units in general score recording. Outside of any one group:company.
Original.
Reproduction (clone of original).
Multi-format base chip. A multi-boot interpreter chip used with a shared CPU.
And finally hardware repo emulation multi rom
Often a heavily modified variant of the NeoGeo board with soft-cpu emulation and hardware MAME implementation.
If, IF, if, if he used a legit machine it’s one of these.
Despite prior comments to the contrary: this is a very small very tight well connected group.
I barely qualify as an insider and I’ll say this much.
Give me a date and a location. (And 4 weeks)
I’ll tell you who owned the machine, where it is now, and who had it in between! For those in the remaining arcade and arcade collectors industries… it really is that easy. And that small and limited.
The only way he walks away better off is with the machine/board.
No offence to Tim but this is not a standard slapp suite. Only the filer knows the truth. ____———-
But again, put up or sod off!
If legitimate all he needs to do is call me, or any other arcade collector. This is where it is: or where it was last reported/destroyed.
California has toyed with the No-new-registration of gas vehicles as part of multiple all-zero-emissions bills, every time they come up.
The bills haven’t passed yet. But with redistricting… it could.
If you can’t register it, you won’t buy it.
Once it passes, other blue states will follow.
Now I doubt Minnesota or Illinois and the like, (blue in the cities only) would fall that way with the majority of the states’ income dependent on keeping “red” jobs and their majority blue population residing in a tiny percentage of land area. It’s unlikely to pass in such states.
But the disruptive methods would spread eventually.
And with the UN potentially looking at further regulations…?
So there’s little doubt such bans and tinkering in regulation is at least being considered.
And as long as we’re looking at auto:
13002 adds a fee for mileage
And just as the camera system is of concern, this should be too! Not only will it record miles traveled, but location? Yep, that won’t be abused right?
There is no reason this funding (transport funding) couldn’t be done with less or non invasive methods.
Raising national fuel taxes. Instituting a federal toll system for federal and NDH roadways.
But it’s just another spy tool in a vehicle.
How many cars from 2000 get over 20mpg, 30mpg. Etc?
In my state if the car is over 15 years old it can use an antique plate to bypass emissions but that requires limited mileage usage.
My suv averages under 10pm. It’s out the door.
Actually, before this becomes an argument over my wording;
Maybe they don’t intend. Maybe it’s a consequence of (what I consider) stupidity in not looking at the results of what is planned. Maybe the restrictions on used car markets is intended to be not change sales and use at all.
Intent or not — it’s what will happen to a good set of vehicles. Regular use will become limited use for a large
Number of cars and light trucks.
How many cars from 2000 get over 20mpg, 30mpg. Etc?
In my state if the car is over 15 years old it can use an antique plate to bypass emissions but that requires limited mileage usage.
My suv averages under 10pm. It’s out the door.
More pointing out that this is beyond the simple ‘he say
Me dumdum’. This is beyond public participation issues.
These are multi-million-dollar contracts.
So have at it! Exhaust the options he has.
But the only way he can walk away clean from this, not just cleared, is to produce the actual machine. The chain of custody, as you state. The whole thing that he could have presented day one and didn’t.
There are very specific setups that would have proved his innocence. Or at least plausible lack of guilt.

Re:
You mean like how the Vice President said she would not take any vaccine developed under the Trump administration prior to her election?
How about stop blabbing and just let them die?
Did you get the vaccinations? Do you have a mask on?
Things are, generally, back to relative normal. At least outside of hyper-liberal controlled cities.
They’re not going to get the vaccination. Give up already! Just wait for them to drop dead and carry on!
On the post: Chicago Court Gets Its Prior Restraint On, Tells Police Union Head To STFU About City's Vaccine Mandate
History says otherwise
Ignore science, and history, all you want.
Natural immunity does exist.
Ignore human rights all your want.
You’re asking people to inject a virus. Dead, partial, or otherwise.
The “left” wants this to be a political thing.
The rest of us see reality.
Fact: those who get vaccinated after contraction are 70pm% more likely to suffer Severe complications if infected with a variant post vax
Fact: transmission of the virus is less than 1:1000000” to previously vaccinated from unvaccinated.
Fact: greater than 80% of Post-06/21 US deaths from the virus are non-vaccinated
Again—shut up and let them die!
Dems especially should stfu 🤫 🤬 😑
99% of anti-vaxers are Republicans!
The loss of one innocent per 100 is an acceptable loss.
As long as vax requirements maintain medical exemption bypasses I’m all for letting dumbfucks die!

There are very specific setups that would have proved his innocence. Or at least plausible lack of guilt.
