Bleeding Heart Bliss: … omg wtf
Man is Arrested for Drinking an Iced Tea:

Amanda S.: Wow… smh
Rayn: What a power-tripping pig! He’s in plain clothes – not uniform, shows no ID to establish his credentials as a law enforcement officer (even upon being later asked for his badge number by his victim), and yet, the arrogant little bottom-feeder actually believes that he has some sort of right to put his filthy hooves all over an innocent man’s property – as though his word alone should be enough to garner blind, faithful compliance to his orders! No one would hand their drink over to a stranger on the street, so why would this worthless tyrant expect anything less in these circumstances? Looks like yet another case of a cop’s ego trumping common sense. As this video clearly establishes, there is a vast difference between a law enforcement officer and a peace officer: one is purely a revenue collector for the state, owing no allegiance to the public he is supposed to serve, eager to escalate any situation he encounters, without any concern for the fact that his actions are creating a public disturbance, while the latter looks to keep the peace, presumes INNOCENCE OVER GUILT, and is ready to de-escalate any particular encounter he engages in with the public! More American Fascism, Exposed!
Bleeding Heart Bliss: I couldn’t have said it any better. Damn right. Power trip indeed. Besides the actual drunk man walking right passed him. Messed up.
Charlene L.: smdh outta control!
The following correspondence originally took place upon my Facebook wall, after a mutual acquaintance inexplicably posted an article that I was in the very process of debating on the wall of an ex-acquaintance, in what seemed like a concerted effort to distract me from continuing to reply, there…
Stephen K.: Thanks, Brian!
The Anti-Vaccine Movement: A Terrible Track Record
https://jdc325.wordpress.com/2013/04/26/the-anti-vaccine-movement-a-terrible-track-record/
Brian K.: I posted this on my own feed a few days ago and we’ve been having an interesting “debate”
(provides link to debate taking place on his wall)
(update: debate is now concluded, and a copy is located at: http://acidrayn.com/2013/05/11/force-frame-vaccination-discussion-into-false-dichotomy-of-pro-versus-anti-or-present-unique-third-option/)
Rayn: And, due to that same “debate,” I am beginning to believe that so much of the “controversy” regarding vaccines really comes from “gut-reaction” responses to the subject, along with the push to frame all debates on the topic into the false paradigm of “pro-vaccination” versus “anti-vaccination” – an activity that has taken CENTER STAGE, over the facts! Strangely, there appears to be no room in the minds of these two extremist groups for individuals to be somewhat pro-vaccination, while also somewhat anti-vaccination, and, they are FAR from interested in understanding the reasons behind viewpoints that don’t correspond 100% with their own. It’s ALL OR NOTHING in their minds. Both of these “sides” could use a lesson in respect, as well as THE RULES OF LOGICAL DEBATE!
Alison K.: I seem to picking up on the tail end of this. But to address Rayn – I am one of the people you speak of, who is both ‘pro’ and ‘anti’. My son is up to date on all vaccines except two – I am against them for different reasons and it has nothing to do with the autism/allergy debate. For certain things I feel it should be the parent’s choice. And if it means my son cannot attend traditional public school – then so be it. I’ve remained unimpressed with traditional schooling for a long time anyway.

Rayn: Skillz!
The following correspondence originally took place upon the Facebook wall of my friend, Jane L., after she shared artwork from here…
Jane L.:
“Slavs, Latin, and Hebrew immigrants are human weeds… a deadweight of human waste. Blacks, soldiers, and Jews are a menace to the race.” – Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, 1922
Cheryl R.: Evil!
Eleanor B.: PBIAB/ Genesis 12:1-3 to you Margaret Sanger & your minions (your’e a shame to your race!)
Rayn: Thanks for sharing, Jane. Sanger was a hardcore genocidal eugenicist, and I wish more individuals would expose her corrupt, murderous ideology, instead of treating her like some sort of hero to the female population!
Eleanor B.: Hey, whether in this life or next she cannot escape YHWH!
Rayn: Indeed, Eleanor! Hallelu Yah! 🙂
(note: while the above quote has yet to be verified, Sanger did say, “Birth Control is not contraception indiscriminately and thoughtlessly practiced. It means the release and cultivation of the better racial elements in our society, and the gradual suppression, elimination and eventual extirpation of defective stocks — those human weeds which threaten the blooming of the finest flowers of American civilization.”)
