Christ on a cracker, don’t bring guns into this discussion. Talk about a derail if there ever was one.

Username…

Yeah, typical Friday afternoon news dump on the campus bans.

New motto?

I’ve been wondering about this. Can one of the lawyers opine on whether the University and/or State can be subject of lawsuit on these actions or can they stand behind sovereign immunity? Now, since we’re supposed to interject humor into our posts, here’s a gif of a guy getting kicked in the nuts.

Go ahead and lead the way and interject some humor.

Especially when the arrests appear to have been entirely arbitrary. Using their logic, everyone present should be kicked off campus.

That’s some serious bullshit. It’s amazing to me that the University is tripling down on this. This is some serious backwater shit.

I see JohnnySack of shit goes on another shitposting spree. I seriously wonder what dirt he has on this site that he’s allowed to keep his bigotry and racism around. The dude was so vile he had to go change his username and he’s still around. Mindblown.

Every time it gets posted, I watch it at least a half dozen times.

And therein lies a huge part of the problem. Israel’s official policies towards the Palestinian people residing in Gaza has been one of oppressing the general population. When that happens, people see Israel as an oppressor and Hamas can seize upon that and effectively use propaganda to influence Gazans. People that were pretty normal people get radicalized because they think Hamas will solve their problems when, in reality, we know that not to be the case. Hamas is a terrorist organization that invites and incites violence and by inciting violence on 10/7, invited violence upon Gazans. Now Gazans have been enduring bombs raining down on their heads, being forced from their homes, being denied food and healthcare for more than 6 months. Do you think Gazans are looking around and thinking “Praise Allah, Israel is here to save us?” Of course not, it just further radicalizes the populace and around and around we go. Continuing to do the same shit on repeat doesn’t and will never work. Continuing with a failed policy only leads to death and suffering on both sides.

Cool. More corporate welfare. How much did Austin and Texas dole out?

It would be better if you would take down your incredibly dumb Facebook meme. Discussion is welcome and it’s clear now that you can engage with your opinions, but dumb Facebook memes are not.

FWIW, Epic kicks Cerner’s ass. Epic is the product used by the top systems in the country, i.e. Mayo, Cleveland Clinic, Johns Hopkins, etc.

Posted in the wrong thread. Appropriate thread is the Dumbass Things We See on Facebook thread, you twat.

Time to logout from Facebook and turn off Fox News. It’s time for your nap.

I hope a well respected legal scholar wouldn’t have let it happen on his watch.

My point was that people were missing the point of the thread and turning it into a thread of all the shitty places they used to eat at when they were in school. Those places were great when you were poor and didn’t care, but Dago is trying to celebrate what’s great about “new” Austin and that’s not Kerbey Lane and Texadelphia. I love the premise of the thread as someone that craps on Austin plenty as it demonstrates that there are still great things about the city despite it changing from whatever point in time you considered to be the “glory years” in your mind.

Keep fighting the good fight. Great premise for a thread, but that premise seems to be getting lost on the majority. Also seems to be turning into a thread more appropriate for Food & Travel, but I know that’s not what you intended.

Compared to Texas? Last I checked, taxes in Texas are pretty damn high.

What does this have to with the subject of this thread? Start another thread for discussion of the increase in antisemitism and let’s discuss there. It’s a timely and important topic to discuss, but that’s not what this thread is about.

USC canceled the speech of the valedictorian over “safety concerns” due to the student being Muslim. Apparently they had received threats from pro-Israel folks. As we all know, things ramped up at USC this week so they canceled the “main stage” commencement ceremonies over concerns of having 65k people in one place at one time due to the backlash of having canceled the Muslim valedictorian’s traditional speech. Individual schools and programs will still conduct commencement ceremonies and receptions on campus as usual.

Why are protesters exercising their constitutional right to assemble assholes?

I’ll respectfully pass.
