From Turborama's thread about riots in London



The mood is spreading. Imagine how emotions will boil over as things get worse. Our only hope for any kind of real change comes from the high rate of speed at which we are screaming towards a wall. If you drop a frog in lukewarm water and slowly turn up the heat, you can boil him, but if the water's too hot when you drop him in or if it gets too hot too fast, he'll jump out.

Feeling froggy?

3. To those who do not remember, none of us were alive back then
this is startign to look like... 1848... boy that WAS a hot summer.

A little flavor was Les Miserables... but it went far beyond a play based on a novel by Victor Hugo...

I wonder if and exactly when the Red Flags will reapear and those who have no fucking clue about European history... this is not just the flag of the communist party... hell in 1848 there was NO communist party...

4. I wonder if the "W" is meant to apply to Shit-for-Brains?


It would be damned appropriate if that is the case.

Those who make reform impossible, hasten the inevitability of revolution.

And hey Obama & Congressional Dems: I'm not just talking about Republicans here.
