Update: Gavin McInnes attacked at NYU. Punching and Pepperspray.
Looks like more fun :
Gavin McInnes, a Scotch-Canadian former band member of punk band "Anal Cunt", former Vice reporter and now the face behind "The Rebel" Media, just got attacked by Antifa In NYC.
Another "White Racist", except unlike Gay Greek Jew Milo the BBC Lover, McInnes is married to an Indian lady.
Had these guys been around in the 50s or 60s, they would have been called degenerates by the New York Times itself.

Today, they're Nazi White Supremacist Fascists.
Do you really need to spend 5x as much just to surf Patnet, watch Youtube videos and update your Facebook status because you prefer "looks"??
If that's what you do with it then you don't need it...
But if you use apps you already have on your iPhone which have an iPad version of it, if you want to continue to text / message from it , if you continue to want seamless integration with all your computers, phones, watches, if you want your calendars, reminders, alarms all synced to every other device without any hassle - then maybe you do need an iPad.
Also, if you want to FaceTime rather then Skype the iPad is the only choice. And along those lines...if you do a lot of Skype/facetime calls you may want the 5MP camera over the 2MP camera. And if you take photos while on your iPad then its also a clear choice.
Apple and oranges those two products. Certainly not the same.
It's certainly YOUR choice to overpay for "looks", it's your money, but to a lot of people, that makes no sense.
I get it.
Only the gourmet appreciates a special meal at a gourmet restaurant and is willing to pay for it. Others should go to McDonalds. Both places will feed you (same function as you say).
Meh, you're overthinking all this democracy crap.
If Hillary won the electoral college vote but lost the popular vote, you might get some complaining but no campus burnings and beatings of people with shovels.
The loony alt left will burn things and hit people no matter what. There will always be some reason or excuse.
The burning and rioting remind me of the response to Charlie Hebdo cartoons by Muslims in Africa, Europe, and Asia. First, the office was burned and the website hacked. Then, the cartoonists were murdered, thousands of French websites were hacked, and Muslim rioters around the world joined in attacks against anyone French. Even years after a Danish newspaper published cartoons of Mohamed, the President of Sudan said, “We in Sudan declared mobilization against the Scandinavians after the publishing of the offensive cartoons of the prophet.†Basically, I have only ever seen one group react with such destructive violence to someone making fun of them: Muslims, because Sharia says to "defend Islam" by killing the blasphemers.
A European observer commented that the European left do not even pretend to be "liberal," saying only centrists call themselves liberal. The European left comprise Marxist communists (note the Soviet and black flags in the video), anarchists who somehow imagine themselves communists (perhaps believing that smashing the capitalist state would somehow pave the way for communism), and apparently Muslims (already heavily subsidized by government, they may expect additional redistribution of resources would tax small European families to support prolific Islamic birthrates). These rioters appear more in tune with that definition of "left", meaning neither liberal nor conservative. This version of "left" does not appear to share any particular vision of the future, but rather combines inherently conflicting ideologies into a united front to attack anyone perceived as "right" or liberal or otherwise an enemy of the "left".
If they were ever to gain power, I would expect loyalty purges and terror, and later Islamic rule resembling ISIL.
The violence at Trump rallies as well as all the political violence in this cycle, has been committed by today's left. People like you are turning people like me into Trump supporters.
Using that (low) level of reasoning, presumably I could then say that Milo and his supporters were the cause of the violence at Berkeley (and before you respond, please take note that (unlike you presumably) I don't think that).
Your logic is flawed. Shocking
If Hillary won the electoral college vote but lost the popular vote, you might get some complaining but no campus burnings and beatings of people with shovels.
So if hillary had won you are saying MIlo would have shut up his whining and disappeared? I doubt that.
Maybe, but with a thimbleful of effort you can get opinions from among a huge range of biases + the international press.
In the old days you had to go to a major city or university library and spend all day hunting down microfiche records to find alternative opinions.
Most people don't seek out alternative opinions. They reinforce the ones they've already got - something which is far easier to do these days.

And even easier back then when all they had was the monochrome Media Oligarchy. Now accessing alternative opinions is easy; it might even happen accidentally.

Except that doesn't seem to be happening. How many books are the young reading these days? How many long articles do they sit down and read? People have their go to sites. Get their bit of self-reinforcement, and then carry on with their day. If they were actually doing what you talk about, then that would be good. The evidence doesn't seem to point to it - too many people seem far more interested in social media and the like to pay close attention to what's happening around them.
For starters, the idea that Lincoln and the Republicans with the Union Army freed the slaves isn't taught, it's not taught that Europeans were the first civilization on the planet to ban slavery, and enforced worldwide by the business end of a cannon has gone.
Now whites are tainted with white privilege from birth.
What Republicans really need to do is get control of the Public Universities back from the coterie of Ethnic and Women's studies professors who are riding roughshod over the whole curriculum... It should start by mandating Academic Dispassion and insisting that all views be taught. Also, courses should be checked for anti-Science content. Finally, ethnic Studies should only be minors under the History or Sociology Department and those courses need to be reviewed for accuracy.

Seems to me people get in arguments all the time on social media.
This fear is overblown. I believe it is just the Legacy Media trying to keep their Middleman Niche.
Kind of like Vaudeville complaining about radio "It's just a voice in the atmosphere, you need to come to a real live performance, it's more real and intense!"
Rather, a ragtag collection of extreme opportunists will become a strong force, and on the average they are very quickly corrupted by the deep state of entrenched corporate interests and lobbyists in Washington.
This.
The war of elite against tribalism is a catastrophe.
Also this.
I notice "Celebrate Diversity" doesn't get the same hard of a push it got in the past. I get more of the sense "Mission Accomplished - Balkanization Stage One Complete. Let the poor schmucks hate and compete with each other for scraps!"

@thepaine said complaining but no campus burnings and beatings of people. He did not say that Milo would disappear. The opposite of what Sally Kohn and others predicted, expressing fear that "Stupid Trump Supporters" might rampage.

I agree the country is fucked, but not by a couple dozen idiots running around with Halloween costumes. There is zero threat from the feminazi's, college professors, and blm despite your pissing your pants about it every post.
The first part is true, the last party is not. Hatred of Whites is endemic, esp. White Males. The only group that can be openly bashed not just on TV/Media, but increasingly in School Classrooms.
And fight tooth and nail against the Half-way house and the affordable housing apartment complex for $30-60k incomes being built down the road. Some BS excuse about open space or the environment when his Greenbelt community is full of Land Rovers and Lexus 570s and had no problem cutting down 200 acres for a Golf Course.
While becoming a PBS supporter and working to outsource as many jobs as possible to China or Mexico.
While protesting offshore drilling.......
While protesting offshore drilling.......
Yep.
My favorite is when all the snotty yachtsmen of Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket and Hyannis Port go apeshit over offshore Wind Turbines.
And they're usually the same assholes who are always mouthing off about renewable and green technology.
Word is the Mayor wanted the Cops to stand down entirely and didn't even want a thin screen of cops.
Something told the cops to standdown.
But in my neigborhood they set out decoy cops to walk across the street as the light changes, and hand out tickets to people who fail to stop for the decoy police.
Worry when are police are controlled by the politicians rather than working to ensure Justice.
Dem congress critter thinks violent berkely riots were a beautiful site-Dear Lord!
Let's see how it affects yuge Free Market Capitalist companies & what
their reaction will be.
Where's the ban on all immigrants coming across the Southern border
until trump finishes the wall next week?
Why won't he stop all border crossings of RAPIST,MURDERERS & DRUG MULES?
I know an america HATER when I see one.
I hate Travis and his politics so that's why I stopped driving PT for Uber and ONLY drive and ride Lyft. Lyft has far less surge pricing.
Lefties, lefties- I wonder why focus on letting in Jihadis and not teh Yazidis and the Christians being slaughtered-the elft and Obozo seem a bit deranged??

Darkies and sluts been picking on you have they? White males have all the power (including police and military) and money. Game, set, and match. The only thing everyone else gets to run is their mouth.

Right. White Males have all the power. Bill Bob who mixes cement in Missouri has wealth and power; compared to a Devos, White, or Fiorina who is powerless and poor.
You're part of the Anti-Liberal Regressive Left.
keep hearing from people that uber and taxi is roughly priced the same.
I'd have to disagree strongly on that. Uber 40-50% cheaper and rarely waited more than 10 mins
Lyft has far less surge pricing.
Surge pricing getting out of control here in NJ...never had as much problem in Atlanta

whatever investor money Kalafuck sucked out of it is safe in Vanuatu where he'll live in Caligulan Splendor when the whole thing, as expected, goes up in flames with local business pages filled with stories of ASSHOLES! who bought cars to drive for Uber are homeless and fighting with raccoons for the last french fry in the dumpster
I think I can use this quote a lot elsewhere.
Definitely 50% cheaper to airport in Atlanta from Decatur downtown. Cab with tip: 75 bucks Uber: 29-32 bucks
MARTA is cheaper.
In a blow to every mainstream media news outlet (and likely hurting a lot of feelings), President Donald Trump’s ban on immigrants from seven Muslim-majority countries will take effect in Boston on Sunday after a federal judge refused to extend a temporary ruling blocking its enforcement.
Ah, they're venue shopping. Looks like they found another winner in this Washington Judge.
How come the media didn't report the last TRO was overturned?
The Judge cites 8 USC 1182 which Congress passed in the 1950s, and the Constitutional Powers of the Executive in Foreign Relations in refusing to extend the first TRO. (Warning: PDF)

Apparently the Seattle judge is a bLM supporter.

But they were so wrong about his odds in the election, it's hard to even take them seriously now.
Don't have to get up tomorrow, and had too much coffee today, so I'm chilling on pnet.
Based on what I see in this forum and the general populace-Trump 2nd term it is.
APOCALYPSEFUCK_is_ADORABLE says
[Uber] works but the guys who've driven me seem frightened to accept tips. Sad.
AF, if you insist on handing drivers the severed heads of your enemies, you have to expect they might seem frightened. Also, if the severed heads belonged to their close family or friends, you should anticipate they might feel sad.
APOCALYPSEFUCK_is_ADORABLE says
REPLACE FUCKFACE!
No way, I'm really looking forward to 4 years of clusterfuck chaos. It's been great entertainment so far and it's just getting started.
