Futile Questions

A few things have set off the crank-o-meter of late. In no particular order:

The asshole conservatives are floating the idea of repealing the 14th Amendment, the one that makes anyone born here a citizen. Seriously? How paranoid about Spanish-speakers are you fuckwads?

I’m horrified that a German tourist could be senselessly gunned down on a busy downtown SF corner by rampaging teens whose fight spilled out of a club. Worse our assistant police chief has the gall to insinuate the fault lies with the club owner because he didn’t install enough surveillance cameras. Uh, am I missing something or is the real problem that teenagers can legally possess guns? Why don’t we wake up and repeal that repugnant Second Amendment? (Take that asshole conservatives. Us wide-eyed liberals can be just as delusional.)

Why hasn’t JetBlue put Steven Slater in charge of its flight attendant training program yet? If you’ve flown in the past five years, you have to feel on some level that he was totally justified. And why hasn’t the press plastered the photo, name and address of the jackass who bonked him in the head all over the place?
