You want to criticize FoxNews for their bias news coverage ... fine they are definitely bias ... but ... you think the Huffington Post is any different with their Leftist slant. What a fucking joke.

No you're not. I am part of the 99% and guess where I was today. Instead of occupying some street corner or park and/or posting mindless drivel on an internet forum, I was at work. So stop saying I am one of you, because that is pure bullshit. I will never ever be one of you. You do NOT represent the 99%. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

LOL ... I never said every word in his entire speech was a lie. In fact I agreed with him 100% when he said he would not ban the video like many Muslims were calling for since Americans (well at least most of them) believe in free speech. But what I find hilarious is that you just admitted that Obama stood up in the United Nations and lied to the world. Too funny. Thanks for your honesty. This video had nothing to do with the Benghazi attack. You know it, Obama knows it, Obama's people know it. But thanks to Obama's friends in the media, there is a cover up. Nixon lost his presidency thanks to a failed cover up. But then again Nixon never had the consensus mainstream media in his pocket. The only job Obama cares about is his own Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

No I do not believe that Obama created the video. For fuck sakes what is up with this bullshit. You are just trying to invent conspiracy theorists for your own DorkZone trolling purposes. Wake up and smell the coffee. Obama's narrative for this election is centered around "I killed Bin Laden, and because of this the problems with al Qaeda have been solved". However someone forgot to tell the Islamists that they were never supposed to attack American interests anymore and instead of Obama being honest with the America people and telling them on September 11th, 4 Americans died in a terrorist attack. They looked for a scape goat and selected this video. Good grief the partisan bullshit never ends. By the way I am still waiting for an answer ... Why did Obama stand up in the United Nations and lie to the world? ... care to tackle that question? Or is trolling the only thing you are capable of doing when your messiah is caught in a lie. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Why did Obama stand up in front of the United Nations on September 25th and tell the world, the Benghazi attack on Sept 11th was the result of an internet video and that his government had nothing to do with the video. It is bad enough that Obama's press secretary lied, bad enough that Hillary Clinton lied, bad enough that the US's ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice lied. But Obama himself two weeks after the attack stood up in front of the world and told a bold faced lie. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Years ago when I still lived in Colorado I remember the media was hyping up a massive blizzard that was set to hit the state. I was at work and one of my colleagues sent out an email to the company telling everyone that they needed to leave work "before this blizzard gets any worse" and someone replied "and what blizzard would that be". The skies were clear and not one flake of snow was falling when this email was sent out. It was funny as hell. As someone who lives in "Wintery" Canada let me tell you, life does not grind to a halt for every storm. Life goes on, people go to work even when Mother Nature is nasty to us. Now I understand Hurricanes pack winds that can be destructive. So weather warnings should be issued. But if every time "History Making" and/or "Snowpocalypse" predictions are made from the media and the storm does not live up to the hype, people just chalk it up to another "Boy Cries Wolf" scenario. The media is a joke. Every day I lose more and more respect for whatever it is they are peddling. Be afraid, be very afraid. One day you will die ... agghhh ...

Good for the team. They do not know how to quit. They came back from being down 2-0 to win the series on the road 3-2 against the Reds, and then came back from a 3-1 deficit against the Cardinals to win that series 4-3. Plus they totally clobbered the Cards and the Tigers in a number of games. But it is a black eye for the city that a bunch of young pucks decided to riot after the club's World Series win. This is becoming all too common, young people trashing their own cities after sporting events. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Update: the FIS might let her race.

I have watched almost every "The Daily Show" and "The Colbert Report" show for the last two months and both shows are highly partisan. Maybe 10% of the time they will say something bad about the Democrats, but 90% of the time they tell their audience "Republicans Suck" followed by loud cheers. Stewart's interview with Nancy Pelosi on Thursday was painful to watch. Simply amazing that people continue to vote for this woman and yet there was Stewart clearly showing his support for everything she said. Yes Glen Beck and others are partisans for the right, but to say that Jon Stewart is not a partisan for Obama is a complete joke. Stewart and Obama can't even have an interview with each other without both of them reading from their respective teleprompters imbedded in Stewart's clear desk. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Don't worry. Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, David Letterman, Jay Leno, the ladies of The View, Opra and Rolling Stone Magazine (Ellen must be feeling left out these days) are all there to fact check to ensure everyone knows Obama was right when he stood up in front of the United Nations and told the world "Benghazi was the result of a spontaneous demonstration due to a blasphemous internet video". Is Obama at fault for the attack in Benghazi? Of course not. But the attack in Benghazi goes against the narrative the Obama Administration and their friends in the Consensus Mainstream Media want the American people to believe. The only thing Obama and his media want Americans to think when they walk into the voting booth is "Obama killed Bin Laden, problem solved" just watch the National Geographic Documentary shown two days before the election. Obama ordered the take down of Osama Bin Laden, an enemy of America, something that was long over due (though the timing of the National Geographic Documentary is clearly political). But Obama's loyal lemmings are fooling themselves if they think the Jihadist problem has been solved. The media stinks, all of them. If the media would only report the news instead of trying to invent it, maybe we would not be getting so many partisan messages from all sides. Yes Rush Limbaugh and Glen Beck are partisans for the right, but open up your eyes and see that for every partisan media outlet on the right, there are even more partisans on the left (the list is just too long to detail here). The media is getting worse and worse, every day. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

You just described what is going on in Canada. Semi-automatic AK47s are prohibited in Canada. But semi-automatic CZ 858s are allowed and not only that, they are classified as non-restricted meaning they do not need to be registered and the crazy storage and transportation rules that apply to restricted firearms in Canada do NOT apply to the non-restricted CZ 858. Now the CZ 858s are not 100% clones of the AK47. The actions between the two are different designs. But the CZ 858 looks like an AK47 and it fires the exact same 7.62x39mm rounds. Makes no sense. Of course beggars can't be choosy. At least for now the CZ 858 is permitted. How long before the gun grabbers find out and demand the scary looking CZ 858 also be banned even though it is not as powerful as your standard .308 hunting rifle.

Watch the TV video news report supplied at the top of the webpage. At the very end of the report they say that the man had been arrested in September of 2011 for abducting a 17 year old girl. 17 is still classified as a minor, not an adult in most jurisdictions.

You mean those scary black guns? Yeah those are bad, they need to be banned because they are black and scary looking. Did you watch that video Ian commented on? You know the one where the police officer told you about the differences in firearms and showed you that there is little difference between a standard semi-automatic hunting rifle and the scary looking black semi-automatic rifle once he stripped both versions down to the action. Then he proceeded to take the hunting rifle and started adding black plastic accessories to it making it look like a scary assault rifle. You know this video: The Truth About Semi-Auto Firearms Once again the AK47 fires a 7.62x39mm round while the standard .308 hunting rifle fires a 7.62x51mm round. Both rounds can kill, heck a .22 can kill. But the standard .308 round is much more powerful than an AK47 round. Semi-automatic AK47s are no more dangerous than semi-auto .308 hunting rifles and both can be fired at basically the same rate, though if you are planning on dragging your rifle through sand, water and mud, you have a better chance of it working if it is an AK47.

I am not calling you ignorant. I am simply stating that it appears that you lack knowledge of firearms (something rather common among many anti-gun peeps). Compared to some of the others around here, I am no gun expert. But I did spend time in a reserves military unit many many moons ago where I not only fired semi-automatics but was also given the opportunity to fire automatics. Firing them was fun fun fun. Cleaning them afterwards was not so much fun. I once had a debate here with a DZ.COMMER (can't remember who it was) and believe it or not I was taking a similar stance you are taking questioning the need for private citizens to use firearms one would associate with the military and their response to me was "We used them in the military, we got know them in the military, we got to like them in the military, we got to respect them in the military" and it dawned on me. I remembered my own experience with firearms while I was in the military and I remembered the respect my superiors forced me to have regarding handling firearms. So yes, it may be rare but sometimes debating others here on the Dorkzone can change your opinions. It is the person behind the weapon who decides to take the life. It is not the inanimate object that does the killing. Yes firearms do make the job of killing easier, but that still does not change the fact that it is the human who decides to use a weapon to take someone else's life. Oh and yes AK47s can come as automatics as well as semi-automatics. The rifle I fired when I was in the military came in two varieties as well. But they were two separate models. Some parts were interchangeable between the two versions. But the fundamental aspects that made one an automatic and one the semi-automatic were not interchangeable. If you tried to take the semi-automatic version and make it into an automatic, it would blow up in your face. The semi-automatic was just not designed to be fired as an automatic. Finally as I said, automatic firearms are already prohibited in the USA. Only an extremely small number of people are endorsed to have them. So when Obama says he will ban assault rifles, he is saying he will ban something that is already banned. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Again you show us your lack of knowledge towards firearms. What are you trying to get at here? If you are thinking the "A" means "Assault" OMG you are too funny. AK stands for: Avtomat Kalashnikova (tried to post the actual Russian cyrillic word here but DZ.COM does not appear to handle Unicode) Translated into English it means: Kalashnikov Rifle Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

How do you know the gun was loaded? Do you have another news source that definitively states that it was loaded? The supplied news source here only states that the mother told her daughter to go get the family gun and go hide in the closet. There is a chance that the family have already trained their daughter safe operating procedures for firearms (which includes the knowledge of how to load it). Seems to me this is a good news story. A man with a history of criminal activity against young girls breaks into a home and actively seeks out the child in the closet and your reaction is "No child should ever be left alone with a gun". Yikes ... how about people who commit prior crimes against children should not be allowed to walk free in society looking to prey upon their next victim.

Ashleigh Banfield, Robin Meade or Erin Burnette? I like Erin Burnette the best out of these three. Ashleigh Banfield is actually from Calgary. She used to be a local anchor on Channel 7 back in the 90s before she was discovered by the US networks. I have nothing against her. But I still think Erin Burnette is the cutest of these three. Just my preference. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Just finished watching last night's The Daily Show where Stewart had Obama on. I heard something about these two men saying how "it was less than optimal when American diplomats are killed". Less than optimal? Are you serious? The Consensus Mainstream Media goes "Ape Shit" when Romney says "Binders full of Women" and yet it is less than optimal that a few people died. Oh well ... no biggie. His pal Jon Stewart has got him covered. Obama can't even go on The Daily Show without his teleprompter. When I am having a conversation with someone, I am looking at them in the eyes. When Stewart talks to Obama, both men are looking at each other in the eyes. But when Obama talks, he looks down at the desk. Oh and look, the desk's top is made of glass. The teleprompter puppet. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Good ... glad you found some value in it. So the next time some snake oil salesman turned politician says "If elected, we will ban assault weapons", just know that they are already banned because automatic firearms are already prohibited and highly regulated.
