Glenn Beck proves again that he has zero street knowledge
I have studied gangs for many years, and there isn't one statement in Glenn Beck's video that you can take for a fact. He states that the kid was killed with a railroad tye - totally false. Anyone with a half an ounce of street knowledge could guess that is a board off of a park bench. How many skinny gang bangers can swing a 100 lbs railroad tye? He states that this happened because we took prayer out of the public schools and off of money. Not even a nice try - Beck - the seed for gang violence was planted in the 40s and 50s. The Chicago gang - the Cornell Square Rebels - killed two people and beat up two Chicago Police Officers all before the year of 1959, when their was prayer in the public schools. A 1957 New York Times article listed the words used by gang members so parents could listen and see if their kids were involved in gang activity. Beck - a little research before making a commentary goes a long way.
It goes to prove that I have forgot more about gangs than Glenn Beck knows.
Have fun listening to nothing! A brain is a terrible thing to waste!
I'm becoming very jaded about these kinds of breakthroughs. I've been reading about them for 15 years on the Internet - and yet - treatment is still horrific chemo and radiation. And so many people still dieing before their time.
So, while I don't give up hope completely, I cynically view these kinds of PR exercises as more about raising funds for an IPO, boosting stock prices etc - than an actual breakthrough.
Good find. I liked the whole breakdown of the last paragraph but I don't need to be reminded constantly that religious people are traipsing around in logical fallacies though.
> That aside, when these customers sat down to order they agreed to the mandatory tip.
Bullshit. That's like saying you agreed to 30 pages of legalese for each website you ever visited, just by clicking on it. A contract cannot be formed without the consent of BOTH parties.
Paying more than $8 per person per meal is a waste of money IMO.
Hmmm...If you wanna chart effort vs success, 1179 published (charter/time spent on computer) - 195 (pqueued) that's 984. Chumming works great for bringing in big hauls...problem is, you never know what you'll get in yer net.
