You missed the point, where is the outrage? Murder is a pretty heinous crime, wouldn't you agree?

Is the outrage to occur only when it is a white Hispanic on black crime, but NOT when its a black on white crime?

See kids...drugs are bad. Mmmmkay?

Except for SSRIs. SSRIs are good. Mmmmkay?

Here are a few Fed cases under Obama:

One of my favorites:
May 28, 2013 - 53-year-old Michigan medical marijuana patient Jerry Duval, a kidney-pancreas transplant patient with coronary artery disease and a strict medication regimen, was sentenced earlier this year to 10 years in prison and will be surrendering to FMC Devens in Ayer, Massachusetts on June 11th. Duval was convicted at trial in April 2012 of manufacturing with intent to distribute marijuana, conspiracy to manufacture marijuana, and maintaining a drug premises. The Obama Justice Department is also trying to forfeit his home and farm land worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

As Obama knows better than most, it's a freaking PLANT. One does not manufacture it, and you shouldn't put "folks" in prison for any sort of involvement with it.
What I was looking for with Obama is courage, not politically viable gamesmanship. On this and many other fronts.
I wish the fuck he was the leader that could have that could have stood up before the nation when Citizens United sealed our fate and said; "we must join together now and do something to save the Republic".
But of course lurking in the shadows all along were Biden, the ghoulish Summers and his puppet master Rubin.

Under US federal law, possession of marijuana is punishable by up to a year in prison and a $1,000 fine for a first offense, going up to three years and $5,000 for repeat offenses.

On its website, the Office of National Drug Control Policy says marijuana has “a high potential for abuse and no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States” as well as a raft of health risks.

Last week, the head of the US Drug Enforcement Agency, Michele Leonhart, told Congress it had seized $2.8 billion dollars in illicit drugs assets and profits, including some $750 million in cash.

No.

Next question, please.

Wall Street doesn't give a shit if birth control is outlawed, women's suffrage is repealed, and creationism mandated for all high-school biology courses.

They crawled in bed with the Christianist right 33 years ago, and it makes money for them.

Of course they did. They know that religion is the opiate of the masses, just like Marx did.

Don't worry about your miserable life now. There's a Pie in the Sky when you Die. Or at least that's what my parents taught me.

That can easily be fixed with a sprinkle of lower interest rates and a dash of more QE.

It's different this time.

i would skip the Realtor trash and go the independent source like DQnews.com

Musta have run out of all cash Chindian buyers....

According to your stats:

YoY median +18.4%
YoY foreclosures -48.8%
YoY short sales -53.3%
YoY days on market -24.4%

Those numbers are pretty brutal... for buyers though, not sellers.

Homeland Security tanks get ready to roll!

egads101 says

wait on, you stupid fuck, it is OBVIOUSLY the republican teatard's responsibility.

are you really this stupid?

Do you have to use this language to make your point? I thought Roberto was an educated professional. This is hardly the language an educated professional would need to over-use. Sparing use of vulgar language I think is fine, but this is just plain over-use. Let's make a better effort to prove that you are indeed as smart as you say you are, please.

What about the prairie oysters?

Isn't that on the Apocalyptic GOP menu?

My impression was that Mitt Romney was dishing some to Paul Ryan while on the 2012 campaign trail.

Ryan was quite a brown-noser.

While human meat might be tasty, American meat will need new recipes to deal with the extra fat.

We need a great hero like General Douglas MacArthur to attack and kill these ungrateful fiends.

Say, do we have memorials for Afghanistan & Iraq yet?

It baffles me Fox Newsers aren't calling for the memorials to be sold to private concerns, who can keep them operating 24x7 assuming ticket & concession sales support that.

Here's a song for all those Galt Gulch Revolutionary Schemers:

I think they call them "barrycades"

I'm surprised to hear of taxpayer-funded installations of any sort in Washington, D.C.

Isn't the Federal Government unconstitutional?

smaulgld says

I think they call them "barrycades"

Why, the GOP is completely responsible for the government shutdown. They even snuck in legislation at the last minute to ensure that the Republican shutdown of the government could not be overturned as normal, so as to ensure that the Democrats had absolutely no power to stop the shutdown. As such, the Republicans are 100% responsible for the shutdown they planned, they orchestrated, and they wanted. And the Republicans are 100% responsible for all the consequences of that shutdown including the closing of the Vietnam memorial or the WWII memorial.

The barricades should be called Boehnercades, not Barrycades. That is, if you want to be honest.

There is a hell of a lot of evil things I blame on Obama. The government shutdown ain't one them.

O.K., I'll add a third voice, then. Dan's an asshole, but he happens to be right this time. This is one hundred percent the republicans' doing.

Face is included in the WIC program.

On a more serious note: why do so many folks on PatNet keep linking to Zero Hedge? It's considered a crank website by some:

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Zero_Hedge

Call it Crazy says

By September 2009, Zero Hedge had begun drawing more traffic than more established financial websites[4] with 333,000 unique visitors a month, impressing even those who say the news site is full of conspiracy theory and "apocalyptic world view".[3] Durden says two-thirds of its readers are from Wall Street.[1] According to Quantcast, Zero Hedge has as of 2012 a monthly global traffic of 1.8 million people.[6] Under the name Tyler Durden, Ivandjiiski was interviewed on Bloomberg Radio[2][7] and Zero Hedge has been quoted in the Columbia Journalism Review.[8]

Zero Hedge celebrated one billion views in June 2013.[10]

While it is abused for political games, the government shutdown is not a bad thing per se. But I would support it more if the politicians and other high-ranking officials (excl. pay/gratuity for completed military duty) would be furloughed as well and if there is additional legislation making any backdated pay illegal.

"apocalyptic world view".

Face is on the menu.
