That seems to be a Tumblr joke thing, like that "trophy 4 u" picture that my BF and I think is the funniest thing ever when we're tired. Haphazard text placement, awful spelling, and comic sans.
Unfortunately no, it was written by one of those Free the Boston Bomber teens (I'm afraid to post a direct link, but this article could help:http://gawker.com/freejahar-when-conspiracy-theorists-and-one-direction-478152664.

-makes pained noises-.....if you'll all excuse me, I have to plan a trip now. But before I go, please, somebody with knowledge of the law inform me.... how many times am I allowed to flog someone with the clue-killamajig before it's considered assault? I ask for unrelated reasons, I certainly have no plans to find that Claire girl from the article and violently violate her vicious brain with my freakishly large weapon of mass destruction/low-end-doomsday-device.

....What about if I sawed her brain off and jammed a few supercomputer hard drives in there and hooked them up? Could I get away with it? I mean yeah it's 'technically' aggravated assault and possibly attempted murder but...I'm making her smarter, I'm bettering society! /Menegle

No, seriously, the fact that he has groupies squicks me out. I mean yeah, he's kind of cute but....his actions ruin any level of sympathy that "being cute" would grant him.

When I die, they should process my blood into an energy drink - it'll be called Vampiric, and one dose will cause diabetes... Also, you might see noises.

God damn it the person who runs Liberal Logic 101 is a FUCKING IDIOT!

He downs't even try not to be a frothingly partisan hypocritical Republican. He doesn't have to be consistent or intelligent because he knows his fans are gibbering retards.

...wow, that came out harsh. I'm not in a good mood today.

Yes LL, thats totally what we do.

it is what straw liberals do.

it also helps if you ignore history as just how "socialist" the Nazis were and where that came from.

Well, they had the word "Socialist" in their full name "National Socialist Party" so they MUST have been socialists. In the same way the Democratic Republic of the Congo MUST be a Democratic Republic.

It would really depend on when the image was? If it was just before the bombing and the petrol station was far away...but there doesn't seem to be a time stamp on the photo so you could say either way.
Well, it seems to be night in the photo and the bombing took place during the day.
Where are all these government types forcing people to pay their taxes via gunpoint?
The "at gunpoint" tends to be meant more figuratively than literally. What they're driving at is that the government will arrest you and throw your ass in jail for the crime of not giving them your money (how they look at it, at least). I'm personally not sure how I feel about throwing people in prison for tax evasion...on the one hand, they tend to be assholes about it and not paying your taxes is really not cool. On the other hand, I don't think locking Wesley Snipes up for two years in a medium security prison on top of ordering him to pay 17 million dollars really accomplished anything.

And the People's Republic of China is a republic for the people, and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (aka North Korea) is a Democratic Republic for the people.

I'm sure he will think twice about not paying his taxes from now on... as will many other people who think they are too rich and powerful to go to jail for such trifling little things.

True, but I doubt he was rehabilitated by his years in prison nor do I think he was a danger to the community. Sending him to do time (and "Shakespeare Behind Bars" leads me to believe that medium security would put him around murderers and rapist, albeit well behaved ones) was purely punitive. Not the biggest fan of that concept within the law.

I doubt the intent was rehabilitation. A rich douchebag thought he was above the law, and was shown otherwise.

As long as you hit someone from behind, or while they are asleep, or blindfolded, it is not assault.

Assault is when someone is afraid of immediate touching. Battery is when they are actually touched. So if someone does not know they are about to be touched, it isn't assault. (It's still battery when you hit them, but no assault since they could not know about the impending touching.)

I'm going to play the game where we reinterpret political cartoons in the most baddass/offensive/bizarre/scary  way possible


We must let Mobile Task Forces handle the containment of SCP-682, not untrained D-Class.

Yes, clearly since prohibition of alcohol was stupid idea, prohibition of everything must be equally useless. Laws will no longer forbid anyone from doing anything, as that just gives power to the mob.

The man laced the milk with specialized chemicals that activate when immersed in mucus (such as the kind found in your stomach), knowing that the milk would be made into ice cream for a party his neighbor was going to, the plan failed when the milk detonated prematurely.

The "kid" is actually an alien body snatcher who just used a parasite to "Infect" a human parental unit.

I haven't heard of this milk thing. Do you have a link to the story handy?
History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.
