Part of the problem (IMO) is that this discussions seems to only happen after a mass shooting.

We are expressly not to have this conversation in the wake of a mass shooting. Emotions n'at.

I'm still waiting to find out what constitutes a sufficient passage of time, or if it's even possible in this country to go x number of weeks without an incident like this.

It is certainly looking like we can't :-(

In campaign news:

Corey Lewandowski out as Trump campaign manager

Ivanka Trump, the candidate's daughter, played a pivotal role in convincing Trump to take action against Lewandowski. She had been critical of Lewandowski for months and this was not the first time that she had leaned on her father to part ways with his top aide. Contributing to Ivanka Trump's recent dissatisfaction with Lewandowski were intensifying tensions between Lewandowski and Ivanka Trump's husband, Jared Kushner, an influential force behind the scenes. One source said rumors swirled that Lewandowski had attempted to plant negative stories in the press about Kushner -- a final straw for Ivanka Trump.

I don't know much about this Lewandowski fellow, but it seems like planting negative stories in the press about your client's son-in-law isn't........ smart? He doesn't have a very good brain.

I was going to crack a joke about that second part, but that's too much of a dick move, even for me.

Is that the daughter that Trump wants to bang?

This should be getting a lot more attention than it is getting. The "lack of propaganda" reason is preposterous. Everyone in the known world know that he was an Islamic extremist that "martyred" for his cause, there's no need to release a tape to prove that. ISIS is having plenty of luck.

"[Mateen] does not represent the religion of Islam, but a perverted view," Hopper said, later adding: "Part of the redacting is meant to not give credence to individuals who have done terrorist attacks in the past. We're not gonna propagate their violent rhetoric."

Does he, now?

Ivanka is ridiculously hot.

She's only like 15 in that photo, so it's total Creepersville.

This is a much more appropriate photo for the discussion:

Trump being in the photo already kills bonerville, so no worries there.

He had been radicalized for the last year, by most estimates. Come on.

I noticed they replaced "Allah" with "God" in the transcripts. That was a nice, subtle touch.

Wendy Bell files discrimination lawsuit against WTAE

In the lawsuit against Hearst Stations filed by attorney Sam Cordes, Ms. Bell alleges that she was fired without cause and that her employer repeatedly called her a ”model anchor and newsroom leader” and encouraged her to use social media in her work.

The lawsuit includes claims for race discrimination under the federal Civil Rights Act.

“Defendant fired Ms. Bell because of her race and therefore deprived Ms. Bell of the same right to make and enforce contracts as is enjoyed by white citizens,” Mr. Cordes wrote.
