Must be a really slow news day if this kind of stuff gets articles. Didn't Kim Jong Un say he invented a type of flower and discovered unicorns? His son just making hamfisted racist comments really isn't that impressive in comparison. Tell us you're gonna blow up Mars or something.

Mujahid Ali Bangash, 55, says he feels not sadness but pride over his son's death.

“My son made his mother cry, but saved hundreds of mothers from crying for their children.” Aitzaz's father Mujahid Ali.

Few men in history with or without royal titles, or states at their disposal, have left their mark on the world.

A WWII tanker, while injured in the hospital, he put his mechanically inclined genius to work to develop a better weapon for his countrymen to fight the then Nazi aggressors who would ravage them when they closed to 300m or less, usually far less. Under such conditions, submachineguns were far more deadly than their long-range Mosin Nagant rifles.

So he designed something better. He designed a rifle that held 30 rounds in a detachable magazine, which could fire at it's controllable rate, barking in full auto or semi, and could do so under the most punishing of conditions. He did this not through sophistication or tight tolerances, like previous designs (like the phased out SVT-40), but through simplicity and loose tolerances.

The world needed more engineers like Mr. Kalashnikov.

The Beatles White album has sold 20 million copies worldwide.
The Catholic Church has over 400,000 priests.
The population of New York City is approximately 19.8 million people.

Keep those numbers in mind for shear comparison. The AK-47 and it's numerous derivatives number 175 million.

That's enough AK-platform weapons to give everyone in Germany two and a fifth guns. That's, assuming an average weight of 8lbs, over 636,000 metric tons of firearms.

If I were to take your personal AK, and throw it in a theoretical pile of all of them ever made and give you chances to dig one out at random, your chance of picking your original gun would be the same odds as winning the Powerball Lottery.

The man built the gun with a foreign invader in the sights of it, and the Soviets loved it. The Russians and others loved it post collapse, it has been to every corner of the Earth, shot by governments, criminals, terrorists, revolutionaries and children alike. The AK-47 may well have killed more people than any other gun in the world.

The designer was not apologetic though, having merely ushered in an age of better weaponry, and specifically weaponry for the people. Now, at the age of 94 he is laid into the ground.

The Soviet Military decorated him with just about every medal they had, but he lived his life off a meager state pension. Once, he said he wished he had invented a lawnmower instead.

So oil your Kalashnikov. Drink stout vodka. Honor this great man.

But how can any of us hope to honor a man that deserves a 175 million gun salute?

Mentally ill guy is blocking traffic, being mentally ill and stuff. NYPD shoot in his general direction because he has pockets or something. They hit two bystanders, because NYPD have stormtrooper accuracy, and taser the crazy man.

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/times-s.....-times-square/

DA apparently charged the ill man with assault because he, unarmed 'caused the condition' under which the other two people were shot. They're charging the man as if HE had shot those people and not the police, just because the cops shot at him for poorly thought out reasons. Taser seemed to work, and they even hit their target with that!

The fact though that the police could charge him for THEIR negligence is astounding.

Collegehumor did this as tongue-in-cheek and whatnot, but the sad part is how true it is.

Mom called me today, said the old girl died in her sleep last night (Nov 16th). She was in failing health for a while, and roughly 13 years old.

Whereever awesome (but loud) dogs go, I'm sure she's having fun with Eek.

I'm a little drunk, so this might be offensive. I would like to kindly remind you that I'm not a bigot, I'm just 'colorful', which is a nice way of saying bigot.

- Springfield Mall 1985 - Victims: Holiday Shoppers

Holiday Shoppers can be annoying at times, but mostly due to traffic-like reasons of volume and flow. That and it's usually very easy to associate with a bunch of mouthbreathers in the mall who are after the latest lame toy because you're also only in the mall because you're a mouthbreather after said lame toy too.

Victim give-a-fuck-ability: HOLY FUCK THAT COULD BE ME!

"My parents make me nervous, but Bill Ruger makes me feel like a commando!"

- Columbine High 1999 - Victims: High School Kids

Okay, in high school, I don't think a single person on this Earth, unless they somehow were REALLY into the football team, didn't at some point fantasize about shooting, maiming, crushing, burning or disemboweling some other high school student. Physical impossibility to avoid that. After the perspective of a few years though, you kind of realize that both the dumb bully type kids and all the 'special advanced gifted super bright POTENTIAL PLACEMENT BLAH' kids are fucking morons. Nobody knows SHIT in high school, it's like the practice level for life, and even if you're life was a living hell in your alma mater, you probably were pretty insufferable too. So watching a high school mass murder where a high school twat or two kills other high school twats is not readily identifiable, but you find it hard to blame one for the other.

Kind of like trying to blame all of Micheal Vick's pitbull fighting deaths on that one dog who just fought really well.

Victim give-a-fuck-ability: Aw fuck, seriously? Well less jailbait to go around. Fuck.

- Sikh Temple Aug. 2012 - Victims: Sikhs

Not a Sikh, can't directly relate, but... Sikhs are usually awesomely bro-tier. A religion founded on the principles of personal integrity and defense of the innocent, with lots of kung-fu shit too. Probably one of the best religions in the world, and easily the best invented by brown people.

Victim give-a-fuck-ability: WHY THE FUCK? REALLY? REALLY? FUUUUUUUUCK...

"Sikhs may have been targeted because their garb is similar to a muslim man's garb. Save for the fact they usually carry a badass dagger, and don't shout things in phlegmspeak at dawn from towers."

- Sandy Vagina Declitber 2012 - Victims: MUH CHILLINS

It's actually pretty hard to spend more than a few minutes around 2nd graders without wanting to punt them into a wood chipper at times, especially in groups where their groupthink shit would put 'none of us are as cruel as all of us' Anonymous to shame.

Kids can also be marginally entertaining though, and despite most reason most of us either have or know people who have individual elementary school kids, and if handled one at a time, they're okayish. At worse they 'massacre' themselves with stovetops and finding out Mr. Fork and Mr. Electrical Outlet aren't friends. Like the high schoolers, they're mostly just idiots, but they have less pimples, awkwardness and asinine political opinions.

Victim give-a-fuck-ability: Fuck. Those poor kids... Oh wait everyone is going to go full retard over this? Ugh. Fuckity fucking fuck tapdancing on a fucking fuckcock.

"23... Reload! 24... I am the ghost. C'mon noob, where are you? Oh cool, fat kid! 25! Fuck yeah, take that camper! Wait, where is my tac nuke? WHERE IS MY FUCKING NUKE? This is gay. RAGEQUIT!" *bang*

- LAX Terminal, like yesterday* - Victims: TSA and possibly others

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art.....d-airport.html

Nnnnngh. The TSA... Mmmm, hard sell for sympathy, because even if they look gloomy tomorrow and wear black tap over their plastic badges, they'll still grope your grandmother's tits. I actually haven't personally experienced many rude TSA people, heck I even met a really nice guy who worked for them. Cute and flirty, but he didn't work at an airport, and while all agencies have their bad apples, most others don't feel up the wheelchairbound or steal your luggage.

Hard sell. Hard sell, because it's hard to picture someone who is more "I IS GOVERNMENT POTATO I IS AUTHORITY POTATO" than the TSA.

Not gonna lie, probably gonna take a while for me to warm up my give-a-fuck-atron to squeeze much out for this. Fucks given are pending...

Anyway...

People, well schizo people, aren't thinking big enough though. Westboro Baptist, NAMBLA meetings, telemarketter call centers, eventually someone will have to mass kill a group we actually don't give a collective societal fuck about. Right?

Also there is a raffle.

Firstly, 18 Sailors from the Indian Navy are feared dead when a Russian-built sub (I'm assuming a Kilo class) exploded while docked in Mumbai. I am by no means an expert, and the explosion could be caused by a plethora of different things.

http://www.cnn.com/2013/08/13/world.....html?hpt=hp_t2

Submarines, any ship really (inb4 'boat') when in port transforms from a vehicle to a construction site, materials are brought in out, parts are welded, and overhauls are undertaken. This makes a cramped, still used working environment much more dangerous.

And on that note, while not as horrific (no deaths), similar has happened to US subs. The Miami had a fire that burned for 12 hours in it's forward compartment while in port. That's extremely serious in terms of scale, but the reactor team kept standing watch, no need to evacuate them.

http://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/v.....-fire.cnn.html

One of my old instructors served on the Miami. Submarining is dangerous work, even if the boat isn't out at sea or under pressure.

No seriously. Here in the US, if they confiscate a bag of golf clubs at a crime scene, it will get auctioned to help supplement the department's funding. For pennies on the dollar if need be. Police auction boats, houses, furniture, even guns. They auction cars too. An impounded half-rusted civic might even make the block to be sold to someone else.

Meanwhile in Britbongistan...

http://www.digitaltrends.com/intern.....eize-supercar/

I know the Philippines and Thailand do this too, but usually there the cars are smuggled missing components so auctions would just be a means for the smugglers to buy them back for cheap, they're closing a loophole, and a Ferrari lacking a transmission and engine is worthless really. Besides, Asians are funny about following laws.

Here, the car runs.

Was impounded only for lack of insurance (thereby imported legally).

It's worth a small fortune. Seriously, they could auction the car, AND fine that Lambo dealership for selling to a guy with no insurance. They could make out like kings and afford new um, cars, silly hats, vests, and whatever they use instead of guns.

This seems highly incompetent. They're going to crush half a million dollars just because they want to 'make a point'. Hell, if they REALLY didn't want this car on the streets anymore they could part it out for at least 100K in bits and pieces.

The one thing I do hate about faggots, and young counterculture people in general is how they're retardedly manipulable while also being so vocally against "the mainstream".

Russia and Putin have passed very stringently anti-gay laws. To the level where people can be jailed just for telling others they're gay if children can view the process (read: everywhere). No one has really made a strong calling for a boycott of the olympics, but Dan Savage has called for a boycott of Russian vodka (namely Stoli and Russian Standard).

Well, when Dan fucking Savage says 'Rim', fags say 'How deep?', mildly muffled by his rectum while asking such. I've moved him from the okay Savage tier (also occupied by Macho Man Randy Savage) to the shit Savage tier for this (with a lovely neighbor of Micheal Savage)*.

While I understand his reasoning, and the urge to force soveirgn nations to do as we feel via boycott is strong among young people in America, this is a bad policy. Firstly, Russia doesn't directly make either vodka, and they make PLENTY of other products. If anything, boycotting the Olympics would be a much more effective message. Then, Russia doesn't exactly have a history of sparkling gay rights. The new law really doesn't do anything but legalize what cops there have been doing anyway. Third, Human Rights violations rarely stop us from buying all products of a nation. Wanna doubt me? How do you feel about China's treatment of it's labor force? Or of Buddhist monks? Okay, so then where are your powerstrips or squiggly light-bulbs made?

Most obvious though, is that Stoli is not brewed in Russia. It's brewed in Latvia. That's like boycotting America by not listening to Rush or Nickelback**. This is not even addressing that Stoli has FOUGHT FOR GAY RIGHTS, as outlined on the first page of their website...

http://www.stoli.com/#lgbt

So fuck you Dan Savage. Last night I went out and bought some Stoli. Vanilla flavor, because I support good vodka, I support gays internationally, but I don't support feel-good campaigns by whiners.

Edit: Also after this whole Snowden thing, our creditability as a moral authority in the area of government abuse has slipped, and Russia offered him asylum. Not a good position to launch a civil rights campaign for another nation from.

Edit^2: No really, fuck you Dan Savage...

Snowden gets asylum in Russia, which is known for it's gleaming human rights and free speech, but he did drop a bombshell today. Apparently, the NSA isn't sated with just phone records, but wants to know everything every American does online too...

http://www.cnn.com/2013/07/31/tech/.....leak-xkeyscore

This seems to be opposite of what NSA heads claimed in congressional testimony, which can be a felony.

Their word choice though seems to indicate that since it's a program that monitors, logs and stores the data for later searchable access, and since they don't access everyone, they seem to think it's okay and 'targeted'. This is a bit like a farmer estimating his crop yield by counting how many of his veggies are on his own plate. Just because you use x% doesn't mean you're overall structure is a targeted scalpel.

The long and short of it is the NSA systematically gathers info warrentlessly on every American (and because it seems to be a computer program, likely a lot of non-Americans), and can known when and what date you looked up what online. I'm not really sure if this logs cookies, or keystrokes, or what. They're watching, or at least saving to watch at a later date. Look up 'yiffy foxes' on google and they may know. Spent 2.4 hours on e621 and they might know. Type the word 'bomb' into an email to your mother, and you might get filtered.

Stay paranoid friends.
