  1. They werent really accepted/popular until later. Love them though.
  2. No one has pointed out: if you arent personally watching it getting signed their is no guarantee the artist himself is the one signing the record.
  3. I just wish they would consider ONE south eastern state. Georgia? Tennessee? Florida? North Carolina? South Carolina?
  4. Closest show to NC is 450+ miles away in Baltimore. Cool.
  5. First let me start by giving you the benefit of the doubt . Maybe you are not aware or maybe you are kidding, but this type of statement or question is no way to conduct a proper inquiry. It has no place in rational discourse or debate. But I will respond to you nevertheless, it does register in my brain as a matter of a fact. The argument that all cops are bad is an ideological and sociological viewpoint upon culture (in this case specifically American culture). The problem with this argument is that it is almost exclusively ideological and barely ever contains substance or a practical application in terms of solving the problem. For example what do you personally propose would be a better system (in exchange for a police force.)? Surely you are not suggesting erasing the police force from US soil, and that upon doing so Peace and Love would immediately follow and take care of the rest. Furthermore after you come up with a specific plan: how would you integrate this plan into a stateside system where each state contains different laws that need to be enforced uniquely to that state (without police mind you because police are bad and need replacing.) Even further, how would you make this system cohesively enforced (again without police) nationally on a federal level. And then finally, what makes you think that in thousands of years of cultures reforming social policy and the use of police upon the populous that you can even come up with a system that is full proof? If you do not propose a better system than police, and continue to wildly claim all police are bad you are only distracting and at the same time intensifying the very problem you most likely want to fix. This is because again, you are not proposing anything better than the current system. You are (at best) recognizing the problem or admitting that a system is broken, but that is all. Yes.
  6. Exactly. It helps the cause because, as with any problem in life, it is best to have all the information present when deciding what the best path towards change is. If you wipe out all cops in America because "they" are all "bad" you WILL have anarchy. I guarantee it. The type of logic that says all cops are bad let us get rid of them all, is akin to a doctor amputating an arm because it is severely sprained. It is better to work as a country towards reforming law and regulation and setting forth a better tomorrow.
  7. How old is your friend. I suspect 17 or younger. My favorite part though is: The P.S. is such a subtle precursor to "really real in 2014".
  8. There also is the issue in both Ferguson and new york of the officers report or statement carrying more weight than really any other parties involved. Truth is truth no matter where it comes from. A police officer should not be valued higher than a civilian in a court of law. But from what I can understand that is exactly what happens in these specific Grand Jury cases.
  9. First two that came to mind: 1) Electric Wizard ‎– Time To Die 2) Tobacco ‎– Ultima II Massage
  10. According to the BBC tonight the reason for not indicting the officer was because the grand jury could not find "malicious intent." I would love to know the true legal definition or law that explains "malicious intent." As far as I am concerned: a man being choked to death for selling loose cigarettes is malicious and at the very least deserves a trial.
