This.

Your entire defense is based on what hat people are wearing. He was a dude driving around with a gun literally looking for trouble. I see no difference. The "good guys" and "bad guys" stuff is childish logic. Do you think being trained makes you a reliable, good person? Does having a concealed carry trainer telling you you "can't be an asshole" mean that you won't? Is every member of a neighborhood watch automatically a good person? I'm calling bullshit. By the way, your "good guy" Mr. Zimmerman was arrested for resisting an officer with violence, and battery of a law enforcement off

Because it assumes the exact same actions are taken but the conditions that we presuppose, the characterization of who is doing it, is changed. What I'm saying is the law is supposed to be blind, to judge everyone the same for what they do. But do you see how quickly (so quickly that you make fun of it as irrelevant) changing the characters, but not their actions makes it look different. To me it's not that big of a stretch anyways. What's the difference between a neighborhood watch "member" driving around with a gun and noticing someone who he doesn't like the looks of, vs. a gang "membe

But you're mocking my attempt at making a relative comparison for rhetorical purposes, with an absurd comparison for condescending purposes. I had hoped the purpose of the example was self evident and you might follow the logic, but if I must explain how it is relevant I can do that for you.

I lost you there.

Take a few steps back and it might get clearer. Most people living in larger cities know of neighborhoods where physical violence, or "a beat down" is a weekly reality. Where the tenants of that neighborhood are well accustomed to having to use bravado, and their fists as a method of self preservation. Picture yourself getting out of your car in one of these neighborhoods and chasing a young man, shouting "Hey, what the hell do you think you're doing?". Some percentage of the time that young man is going to kick your ass, or try to. Imagine Zimmerman was in a gang (he seems to run a neig

Fair enough. But as we argue the minutiae of this, I just get flabbergasted as to where you find the continuous motivation to defend this piece of garbage? What is it about him the speaks to you enough that you find it necessary to retrace the technicalities of each step that lead an armed man into confronting, fighting with and killing an unarmed young man who was smaller than him?

He was told not to on the phone.

I just got back into the country a few days ago and was getting caught up on news, and entertainment. I saw the Daily Show where John Oliver interviews the director of Gasland 2. Natural gas is a problem. Yes the fracking thing, but more than that. Definitely not as clean as it's marketed.

I noticed that On Filmore is playing a bunch of dates for Radiolab live. I don't even know if they'll be able to record again in 2013. Oh well, I guess it was definitely going to be a 2014 record either way.

The best setting is the one that fits your amp and guitar. If you have a guitar with high output pickups, humbuckers, or otherwise, it's going to take more volume from the pedal to get the volume of your rig to go up when you hit the stompbox. If you have a kind of bright fender type guitar you want your tone set a little lower so it's not shrill. If you have a lower wattage amp without a lot of headroom when you hit the overdrive it's going to smack the amps preamp and squish it. That can be great or terrible, depending on your goals. Don't be fooled into thinking there is a secret code

I've told the story here at least once so I'll cut it short; I ran in to him at a bar in L.A. and he was exceptionally nice. I had a drink with him, he's cool.

And herein lies the cracks that reveal how extreme your bias is. The conditions of legality do not guarantee goodness. There have been many depraved acts committed by Americans who were legal owners of the instruments with which they committed the acts, including chasing an unarmed man after being instructed not to and shooting him when a fist fight ensues. This is not the first time you have confused legality with righteousness. The entire history of state societies is rife with the slippage and contradictions between these two conditions.

No Code Vitalogy Binaural Riot Act Vs Yield PJ Ten Backspacer

Street name? Smart phone. We need to take a pistol out of that holster and put a 3g phone in there. No death, problem solved.

Really?! Much like Wilco fans, it takes all kinds and you never know what you're going to get. I call Binaural, and Riot Act their later classics, self titled a ho-hum album and Backspacer their fall from grace. Also like with Wilco, it's cool that while they're disappointing some people, others are getting pumped.

I started with skepticism, then the punk groove caught my toes, then they had the poppy bridge.... and I'm pumped. So much cooler than the last album already.

In the eyes of that particular jury, in our court system, yes. But the point is that doesn't make it a fact that you can hang up on humanity, or a higher power. The truth often has more to it than that. Just because the law doesn't punish someone doesn't mean in certainty they didn't commit a crime. The reverse is also true.

I doubt it would happen. They have pretty different musical agendas. But don't call Grohl a one-trick pony. Look at some of his other collaborations for the Sound City thing, he can work with Stevie Nicks as well as Trent Reznor. Dude is versatile. I guess what I'm saying is it would never happen, but if it did it wouldn't be like sticking "Monkey Wrench" on top of "Radio Cures".

No matter what, we do know that an unarmed man was shot dead by a man who weighed a good deal more than him. The man with the gun engaged when he was told not to. The one thing to keep in mind, is a court or jury is not a final decider of right or wrong. They decide if there is conclusive proof to punish a wrong. The jury ruling doesn't give Zimmerman a high five, he's not proven innocent. They just couldn't prove him guilty.

What the hell is that supposed to mean? You want Snowden shot in the junk? Because he told you the government is sifting through your email?

So while these details are unclear, and are being debated in a court of law you have already made up your mind what happened. I'm glad you're not on the jury.

It's like the strategy for Sarah Palin. Just ignore, and we'll all move on.

Yeah, I like it. I'm going to have to spin it a half dozen more times before I can compare it to You Are Not Alone. The production is gorgeous. There aren't any songs I dislike. But I'm still waiting to see if it grabs me as a whole.
