I'm not against judging people by how they look it's my favorite past time !

We know.

Dammit the lack of an edit function!

I should have used Han Solo saying, "I know" to cause undue, inappropriate sexual tension!

Some cosplayer running for office.

I remember she did a "cosplay" with pot-leaf pasties and another where she was just nude in the shower.

I am sure the campaign will go well for her.
Pics or it didn't happen.

Turkey and the Islamic State appear to be headed toward outright war

Quote:
ISTANBUL — A brazen assault by three suicide bombers on Istanbul’s Ataturk Airport has set the stage for a more violent conflict between Turkey and the Islamic State, a development that would deepen Turkish involvement in the Syrian civil war.

There has been no claim of responsibility for Tuesday’s carnage, but Turkish officials blamed the Sunni extremists for the attack, which killed 41 people and injured at least 239.

The raid marked the fifth bombing attack in Istanbul this year and struck the country’s most important transportation hub. While Kurdish militants also have recently attacked targets in Istanbul, analysts said the airport operation bore all the hallmarks of the Islamic State.

I must admit to some confusion on the headline however. How can you be anywhere near ISIS and not be at war with them? Isn't that sort of their nature? You're either with them or they're trying to *** your ***up?

Subjectively speaking, and far be it from me to argue with anyone, I find her face a bit on the severe and unappealing side.

Her official response to all this:

“I am serious about this,” Trujillo told the New Times. “I felt it was a good time to run. I’m glad people are deciding they want to get more involved, and I want to give people the opportunity to choose something more outside the red-and-blue party system.”

Her day job is running an indie comic-book publishing house with her husband, but she says she’s been increasingly active in local politics. Trujillo, who was previously married, told the New Times how she’s been lobbying to change laws so that divorced parents can get equal time with their children. She describes herself as willing to work with both Republicans and Democrats and “very pro-limited government.”

Gun shop to raffle off AR-15 rifle to benefit Orlando shooting victims

suburban gun shop is conducting a raffle to benefit victims of the Orlando shooting massacre — and the prize is an AR-15 rifle.

The semi-automatic weapon that Second Amendment Sports in McHenry plans to give away is similar to the gun used in the June 12 Orlando attack that killed 49 people and wounded dozens more in a gay nightclub.


A McHenry County woman who lost her son in another mass shooting where an AR-15 was used — the 2012 movie theater massacre in Colorado — called the shop's raffle "offensive."

But gun shop owners say their intent was not to offend or to make a political statement but to help the Orlando victims by raffling off one of the shop's most popular products.




Quote:
"We wanted to do something for the loss of lives and injuries that happened to people in Orlando," said Bert Irslinger Jr., who co-owns the shop with his father, Bert Irslinger Sr.

"I understand that there are different opinions out there," said Vic Santi, store marketing director. "We don't look at this as a gun issue. We look at this as a terrorism issue."

Kathleen Larimer said she considers the raffle an inappropriate publicity ploy.

Her son, John Larimer, a 27-year-old U.S. Navy sailor from Crystal Lake, was among the 12 people shot to death at an Aurora, Colo., theater.

"Guns are not toys," she said. "They should be taken seriously. I'm not saying they should be illegal, but raffling off a gun is not taking its killing power seriously."

Colleen Daley, executive director of the Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence in Chicago, also called the raffle offensive.

"I'm glad people are trying to raise money," she said. "I just don't think it's the most appropriate way to do that. These guns are weapons of war, meant to kill large numbers of people in a short time, which is what happened in Orlando. I find it very distasteful and offensive."

Some people will be offended. Some people will praise it as a jab at left-wing gun control advocates.

I think it's just brilliant marketing by the gun dealer.

Slick Willy pulling his moves on Lynch I see.

Bill's taste in women has surely declined...

It begins. We finally get rid of that Ben Ghazi fella and now onto the email conspiracy.

I should start selling lotion to these circle jerkers but I don't want to touch their money.

If it's to benefit those who died I don't see a problem with it, I can certainly see why some are offended but I don't think there should be anything done to stop it. I do think a background check should be performed before the prize is handed over though.

Well clearly, from the sensible standpoint.

Again, I think it's just free press and a good cause, really.

The only potential embarrassment would be if that gun was won by someone who then committed a crime with it.

It's a gamble.

I hope they take the nomination and give it to someone else. I don't think it'd be right to but I'd love to see the look on his face when they say someone else's name.

I don't think it would be the "right" thing to do as, sadly, it is the will of the people.

I do think it's the right thing to do from a moral standpoint. -.-;
