Given that the phenomenon is affecting a specific demographic, it would seem that the ultimate cause is psycho-social rather than biological or even environmental. Obviously, there's a real temptation to use this to further whatever agenda you'd like though.

my recollection was that it wasn't until fairly late in the evening that i heard that. i do remember sitting around the firehouse around 2PM and discussing who might have done this, as nobody there had any clues at that point.



I actually remember Orin Hatch saying it was Bin Laden almost immediately because I wondered how in the world they knew who it was that quickly. He may have been conjecturing though as he certainly had an agenda.

Iowa Caucuses are less than two months away and Donald Trump is still very much a thing.

turns out a reporter was there at this very incident...5 kids came up to the guy who was being interviewed (not celebrating) and knocked him in the face after asking 'are you a muslim?' and ran off

good job, guiliani, you stupid racist fuck

Reminder that Trump thinks people protesting his rallies "deserve to get roughed up" and when 2 Trump supporters beat up a Muslim man for no reason he deflected by saying "my supporters are very passionate".

Lots of people think this guy would make a good president. Let's just burn the earth down.

I think he'll be a great President. I'd ask him for eight bucks. He'd likely give me thousands and thousands. He doesn't know the difference. TRUMP 2016!!!! He speaks the truth!!!!!

this whole talk track makes no sense


Everyone knew it was Bin Laden immediately. Remember listening to Howard Stern that morning and he literally named him 5 minutes after the first plane hit.

The coordinates for the Russian jet were released...NOT in Turkey. NATO throwing Turkey under the bus. If you were the aggressor NATO does not have to be drawn in.

At least they had a vote on this, we just kind of let the President do what he wants because it's too tough to put it up for a vote. 397 to 223 to approve aistrikes in Syria (they were already doing airstrikes in Iraq).

War over. Get the victory blueprints out.

You are right...........second plane. Sorry.

After the first plane they were making fun of a pilot being drunk and talking about trying to bang Pam Anderson.

Donald Trump endorses killing children and breaking international law

According to the GOP hopeful, President Barack Obama was waging "a very politically correct war."

"With the terrorists, you have to take out their families," Trump said. "When you get these terrorists, you have to take out their families."

"They care about their lives, don't kid yourself. But they say they don't care about them. You have to take out their families."

At one point is he too much of an asshole to have his own TV show?

answer: NEVER


He's trolling the entire american political system and we're going to find out it was all just a secret reality tv show stunt. The whole thing is being filmed, complete with footage of him having sex with interns, and it will be released on DVD with the greatest fanfare in DVD release history.
