US Politics V - now with 20% more echo chamber

Interesting. It's not exactly trespass in the conventional, common law sense. There was a case a while ago where an estranged ex-husband projected some less than savoury messages about his ex's various infidelities on the building she worked at (and later apparently her home). He was arrested for trespass but the case was thrown out. I can't remember how the case was ultimately disposed of.

There are more and more cases like this of using these projections as a form of protest, so ultimately it will be interesting to see how law enforcement and the judicial system sort this one out. Public nuisance laws maybe? It must violate local ordinances or codes in many cases, because I know that for a business to do their own projections onto their own buildings they typically need to get a license to do so. It's also possible that the equipment itself might block a public sidewalk, etc, enabling the police to intervene.

Amazing.

Any mention by Trump of the Hawaii scare? Is he just ignoring it?

 

[anitram]

He was busy playing golf when it happened.

 

[BEAL]

I think it’s best that he’s on the golf course all the time.

The less he’s “working” the better we all are off

That's true. I wish I had a dollar for every time he tweeted about Obama playing golf too much.

“I’m the least racist person,” says obviously not least racist person.

Read that he's playing golf today, not participating in the MLK day of service.

Probably for the best. God forbid he goes off script there, we still don't know quite what idiocy he's capable of.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

On the note of MLK Day, I was reading up on it yesterday, and I didn't realize that some states in the southern U.S. combine it with Robert E. Lee Day. Given the prevalence of Confederate statues throughout that part of the country and so on, I suppose that shouldn't really surprise me, but still... That's pretty freaking ridiculous.

I remember reading something a year or three ago about people in Missouri or Mississippi being pissed off that the libruls were trying to take their heritage away by proposing to separate the days.

It's time for Steve Bannon to make a deal......

Seems fair to me

Donald Trump's left foot weighs more than 239 pounds.

 

[Diemen]

He’s just big boned.

 

[Irvine511]

He’s just big handed.

Fixed that for you.

 

[MrsSpringsteen]

I'm sending him a uuuge container of pink and red Skittles for Valentine's Day

I saw a few reactions from friends of friends. Most reactions I saw were genuine fear, people calling loved ones to say goodbye. One friend-of-friend lives on mainland, with family in HI - he did not think it was real and so didn't call his family.

Somebody on FB posted a link to the porn star's story. Sounds like the Donald is as bad at sex as he is at basically everything else. Still wish I had some eye bleach though.

I'm not on Facebook but I want to read it. Help a girl out?

And it's pink and red Starbursts that he likes, not Skittles. How could I get that wrong?

 

[MrsSpringsteen]

I found the old In Touch article. "Textbook generic" and she said she didn't even know why she did it. Neither do I. Ew.

Maybe the Slate article has gory details. That would be gory. Of course he was married at the time too.

 

[anitram]

This article links you to the excerpts, the entire 5,000 word pukefest will be out later this week.

Yeah, InTouch is publishing the interview in its entirety in a couple of days I think.

Barron was 4 months old when this happened.

Not that we didn't already know how disgusting Trump is.

 

[MrsSpringsteen]

Way to be a Dad to a four month old. Then again he has bragged that he never changed diapers or did any of that actual Dad work. So what else to do than have sex with a porn star/any other woman? The porn star is not even a relevant issue to me. Other than the fact that she should have much higher standards. I'm serious.

 

[MrsSpringsteen]

No protection. I...just...can't....even.

He told her she was like Ivanka. Beautiful, smart, someone to be reckoned with.

I like those, too. Especially the red ones. So I guess that's one thing Trump and I have in common. Yay?
