Great speech by a great guy:facepalm:

He checks literally every mark of a right-win extremist :lol: 

 

- Against abortion in every possible situation (even if for example some dude raped a 13-year old with a genetic condition and she got pregnant)

- Against any sort of animal rights (including opposing a law that made it an offense to bring little kids to animal fights)

- "Climate change is just a religion!!!"

- Against everything that's not white

Obviously (duh, like it even needs to be mentioned) against same-sex marriage (the judges who said 'same-sex marriage is ok in Iowa now' should have resigned according to him)

 

What a guy.

Yeah, Steve King needs to go. He’s said much worse things than this.

I've read his rap sheet and this is pretty far up the list. Talking like this about rape and incest in my opinion is significantly worse than not wanting gay marriage (which is kinda lame by itself, but nothing compared to this).

Well being a white supremacist is the worst part about him. These comments are inexcusable too. He’s said a lot of dumb shit over time though, so it’d be really sad if he gets relected in 2020. (He will be the way, he represents a good 35% of country which is just shameful and sad. Plus, I mean he lives in South so it’s a given.)

This is one of the rare people where being a white supremacist is not even his clear number one in terms of bad shit. You know you've got a really shitty person then.

so apparently now is more urban to write letters instead of numbers, and floorball aspiring to enter one day into the Olympics is showig how is prepared to adapt to all the IOC new wave agenda. 2k19 oh dear...

I mean, it's sad and costly for the team and all (the driver got out quickly and was perfectly fine, no worries), but it kinda made me laugh a little that during the TCR race at the German Nürburgring, the car of Bradley Burns of all people  caught fire.

Minor detail: Burns is a Team Pyro driver. Can't make this shit up.

    • Team Event     I have come up with a quick team competition to allow me time to organise it in the short amount of time I have between now and the Grand Final. I will come up with some names for each team in the coming day (hopefully ).     Nations will be divided into 10 teams of 3 and 1 team of 4, making 11 teams in total. For the team of 4, one of those nations will sit on the bench for each of the 4 sessions meaning only the scores of the other 3 nations of that team will count towards the team competition for that particular session. (Canada will sit on the bench in session 1, Denmark will sit on the bench in session 2, China in session 3 and Mexico in session 4).   Teams were assigned based on voting position to help distribute when each team has a voting member as evenly as possible between each session.   The team event will be an elimination-based event where the scores of the team members will be accumulated for that session or quarter and the teams with the lowest combined score will be eliminated and play no further part.   Scores will be reset to zero after each quarter but in the event of a tie-break, the team with the highest ranking in the previous session will win the tie-breaker.   In the event of a tie in the first round, all teams involved in the tie will be advanced to the next round.   See details below about how many teams will be eliminated after each quarter     1st Quarter: 11 teams Top 9 teams advance to next round   2nd Quarter: 9 teams Top 7 teams advance to next round   3rd Quarter: 7 teams Top 5 teams advance to Final   4th Quarter: 5 teams No elimination         Q1 Pts Q2 Pts Q3 Pts Q4 Pts 1  Team 1 0  0  0  0  2  Team 2 0  0  0  0  3  Team 3 0  0  0  0  4  Team 4 0  0  0  0  5  Team 5 0  0  0  0  6  Team 6 0  0  0  0  7  Team 7 0  0  0  0  8  Team 8 0  0  0  0  9  Team 9 0  0  0  0  10  Team 10 0  0  0  0  11  Team 11 0  0  0  0 
    • OK, won't spoil the outcome yet.    The most interesting relay in who knows how long and it was after lunch on a working day... It's idiotic that the Germans don't have the weekday starts in the evening, when people are OFF WORK. If i was advertising i'd be fuming it's not at least at 18-19:00...
    • Took me 2 tries, but I got through the 2nd time around
    • One of the best-ever Women's Relays this afternoon in Ruhpolding.  Unfortunately stuck away on a midweek afternoon so not many people will have seen it.  Must watch though.  No spoilers yet!
    • The IOC is very TV ratings and ticket sale focused when it comes to sports to add / drop, seemingly. Which is probably not the best metric to use, but it does explain why alpine snowboarding is in more trouble than something like aerials or ski half-pipe (which should probably be closer to the chopping block if we go by competitive depth).
    • Thursday January 15th, 2026 - Round-Robin Day 3 Schedule (GMT +1)   13:00   Japan vs France 16:30   Denmark vs Norway 20:00   Italy vs Germany
    • all races are shown on public tv in places like Italy, Austria and streamed all around the Continent on the Discovery+/HBO Max popularity, instead, is another story... except maybe in Austria, tv ratings are marginal and the athletes are basically unknown, like in all the non-mainstream sports (which means, here in Italy, football, ferrari and -the newcomer in the last few years- Sinner, who replaced Valentino Rossi in this very poor list)   ps at least, there are quite a few kids practicing the sport in our mountain villages
    • Finally got in as well after about an hour-ish in line.
    • Nobody in the US watches it is the problem the IOC has. That and it's kinda dead as a grassroots sport - I ski and I've only seen one Alpine board in my entire life. It was displayed in a store as a curiosity and it was *old*. Much easier to participate in snowboardcross at a recrational level.   I don't think it should be removed, but Alpine snowboarding has a perception problem as a dead sport, at least outside of Europe (I don't have a good sense of how often Alpine snowboarding is shown on TV in Europe and how popular those broadcasts are).
    • Got in and registered, though they put me in two separate queues.  Hoping to get into the early Southern California purchase slot, though it seems nothing is certain.
