Unless it was meant to show America elected its first non-white president, which to some was a monumental shift in society. Not that it rivals achievements like walking on the moon and nuclear fusion/fission/fission-fusion-fission, but important nonetheless. But there is a bit in his post about women's suffrage, so it is likely he is not serious.

He and MJ are probably moonwalking right now.

The shooter was fired from his job a year ago and went after his ex-boss before going random.

Only if you are a law-abiding citizen.

And continue my domination? Of course!

Speaking of dumbasses...

Has anyone read and have a review for any of the following: Bombing To Win by Robert Pape Counterinsurgency by David Kilcullen Wars of National Liberation by Daniel Moran and John Keegan

Your commitment to the military and the country comes before all else, no?

Their pants are so tight it is too easy to imagine them wearing nothing.

This is free.

Apply to universities? Yes, you do it the same way everyone else does. You do not apply for ROTC. When you select your courses for your first semester, you will either tell your counselor you are doing the program or just select the AS100 classes if you do it on your own. It is not necessary for you to get in touch with the admissions officer. They will see you listed and mail you a packet containing their own instructions and a medical sheet that needs to be filled out like a sports physical.

It can play a crucial role in your commander's ranking. I would not discount the importance of maintaining a high GPA just because it is not as heavily weighted for the pilot selection process. Aarp, Brabus said most everything you need to know. There are few non-tech scholarships to be had, but there is money floating around outside of ROTC if it does not work out. Do not pick your major based on what you think will get you a scholarship. It is much more important to do well in something you care about. As for applying for the program, it is pretty easy. You sign up for the classes when you register for your other college courses and show up to the first evening meeting (if they have one). Applying for the scholarships is straightforward as well: you apply online.

Two people said the commute from Silver Spring is miserable. I assume that means long.

There are some terribly fucked up people. So mentioning a child killed on accident spawned murderous, emotional rampages? I do not understand how the people that left these comments feel vindicated after saying that. What bothers me even more is how these people have no idea what happens in these other countries. They do not understand that the people targeted by pilots and drones do far worse things to innocent people, way more often. Accidents happen, especially if strikes are needed in more densely populated areas. There are consequences to everything people do, sometimes at the risk of others. In this case, the accepted risks outweigh the alternative. Maybe the author of this article should write one about the atrocities committed by the Taliban and Al Qaeda complete with pictures of the aftermath.

Can you get the discounted Metro Pass through the mass transit benefits if you are interning at one of the departments? Unfortunately I got stuck with a long commute.

Your GPA at the university you transfer to will be higher, but as Kjack said, ROTC computes your GPA based on all of the classes you have taken. It is separate from your institutional GPA.

You misunderstand me. I do not idolize her, nor do I praise her. Nothing to do with admiration, just straight respect for the progress she made after the attack. It is not my place to judge her for her irresponsibility, but she went from a victim of inaction to taking a stand for herself. She understands she broke the law and was willing to accept the consequences.I respect her sacrifice. I already acknowledged my views on this matter may be clouded and an argument about the preponderance of self-seeking justice versus court of law is stupid when debated from emotion.

Agree completely. It is absolute horseshit. She has to feel this shame for the rest of her life. At the very least, she has been robbed of her dignity. Meanwhile, these pieces of shit were protected. What is the worst that can happen to them with a plea bargain? Certainly not what they deserve.

Good for her. No punishment.

I am not going to judge her for doing something stupid. A lot of teenagers do. This should have never happened to her. It was not right of her to go to a party and drink underage, but it is not like this does not happen amongst teenagers all over. Even so, no one cut her off after she started to exhibit drunk symptoms, no one had the presence of mind to stay sober to take people home if need be, and ultimately no one had her back and protected her. The two offenders also shared pictures of the assault. They outed themselves initially. She knew she was breaking the law releasing the names, but this attack occurred in August of 2011 and does not sound like it has brought her justice. I do not know what she hoped to accomplish by naming the attackers, but I respect her progress from being a terrorized victim to taking an effort to stand up where the courts seem to have hit the brakes. Maybe my feelings on the situation are not right, but they run parallel to hers.

Utmost respect for this girl. "So many of my rights have been taken away by these boys," Dietrich told Louisville's Courier-Journal. "I'm at the point that if I have to go to jail for my rights, I will do it. If they really feel it's necessary to throw me in jail for talking about what happened to me as opposed to throwing these boys in jail for what they did to me, then I don't understand justice." Potato peeler or cheese grater. Make sure they cannot even consider putting their dicks where they do not belong again.

Good point, and that was actually a case in the Tuscon shooting: https://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/41018893/ns/slate_com/t/armed-giffords-hero-nearly-shot-wrong-man/#.UAtVnvX-1EM

I would assume sanity stops me from being the shooter in the theater. What kind of question is that? And to follow it up with disregarding anyone who says they would not do it is ridiculous as well. Am I misunderstanding something? In regards to the last question, no it is not a merry-go-round. If you take a shot to kill the shooter, you are acting in self-defense and not cold-blooded murder.

My comment is about how it is not an issue of masculinity. Anyone can have the capacity for courage, or aggression in the case of "fight." It also depends on the situation and people's values. I would not deride someone's reaction to flee because they may have a lot to lose. They may be protecting someone or have dependents that need them. My position comes from having less to lose and has very little to do with masculinity. I think he does: "It just felt like the worst thing ever because my son's still in there," he told ABC News. "My girlfriend is still in there. I'm out here. Who leaves their child there?"
