If you have any loved ones in or around this explosion, call this number.

This is an emergency information line.

I’ve seen 5 tonne JDAM bombs do less damage than this Texas explosion.

This is serious

Poll: 33% of Americans support Christian as state religion.

On a foot note, 200% of me wants to just die and leave this place.

MEDIAITE: The AP will no longer use the term "illegal immigrant."

Its about fucking time.

Same day District Attorney is named in a case against white supremacists, he and his wife are shot dead.

You have to be fucking kidding me.

blackjackaught: Hey, did you know Border Patrol agents are fond of destroying the food and water caches left in the desert crossing so people don’t die of hunger and thirst? 179 people died crossing between Mexico and Arizona last year, where this happened. Way to contribute to the deaths of innocent people, sworn officers of the American government! This makes me sick. An act of such malice could only point to a complete lack of regard for immigrants and their lives. These officers should be relieved of their posts indefinitely, and publicly humiliated on national television. I want them to go home and have to explain to their friends and family just why exactly they thought innocent people should sooner die in agony of thirst, than come into America.  Scum. If anyone should be exiled from this country, it should be you.

RACISM IS OVERR

Wow, this is some awful shit. And apparently these people also did a loving tribute to Al Jolson complete with “My Mammy”? What is their deal

This was during the Mummers Parade in Philadelphia on New Years Day.

I’m close enough to collect my folk. Tell me where they live and I’ll go he gather them up.

The folks from the Fox affiliate, Fox 29 in Philadelphia, casually reading their scripts, blissfully unaware of the racism unfolding before them.

Or maybe they just didn’t give a shit.

I honestly don’t understand how people cannot see this as offensive. I mean, they hit on not only one, but two stereotypes. I.. No.
