Public Intolerance
Don't post a simple technical question in the Technology forum here (Printer Troubleshooter). If the question is too simple, then the Intolerance Police will attack. Same applies to Jimmy Kimmel. Once upon a time, such comments were made by Lenny Bruce. 30+ years later and we only repeat history? Ironically, Jimmy Kimmel was probably correct! Being correct is politically incorrect. Just ask Bill Mahr.

I say it over and over, but nobody listens.
People are stupid. |
In the meantime, the so righteous and god chosen administration says torture is acceptable. Then when it is exposed, well, we blame all the little people. Clearly top administration officials who sent Gen Miller from Guantanamo to Gitmoize Iraq are not responsible for this. After all, according to Rush Limbaugh, et al, this really was not that bad:

At least when the thousands of kids marched through Chicago, under attack from Daley's storm troopers, then they were saying quite correctly "The whole world is watching". Who speaks out for Pirate who only asks a simple question? What chance does Pirate have when even Jimmy Kimmel and Howard Stern speak honestly? We have met intolerance and it is us. 30 years later and the old expressions apply again. |
Free speech is all well and good, but we mustn't interfere with business.:rolleyes:

which branch of the government was it that pulled him off the air? There's a difference between freedom of speech and right of forum. -sm |

I think it's funny. I think he's disparaging the city, basketball, idiots in general.
In 97 when we LOST the superbowl, 40,000 (blue and Mrs. blue included) fans went to Lambeau (4 hour drive for us) welcome the players and celebrate the season. In Denver for Elways first (same game) win maybe 20,000 showed up, (DENVER..not sleepy little Green Bay....pay attention) then went to the streets burning, flipping cars, smashing windows, etc. God help us if Philly ever wins it all ;-) That said I hope Detroit kick their ass. Rock on Jimmy Kimmel! |

Jimmy Kimmel was on tonight, making fun of the Reagan Funeral. Did they bring him back just for that? |
WTF? I'd say this is some sort of liberal stunt, but Disney seems pretty conservative.

I was only through Detroit once.I'm just an average sized white dude. But I'm not afraid of anything. I wandered off the beaten track. I told my wife to lock the doors.This was a world I had not seen before despite being in rust belt cities all my life.
