Everyone has to make a living. That doesnt mean its their primary motivation. You know absolutely fucking nothing about what motivates a man you never met. Saying otherwise is foolish.

a friend of mine and i were talking about why some people from other cultures - and to clarify, behavior, especially like this, seems to be predicated on culture rather than genetics - are so oblivious to their volume. my friend offered up the interesting suggestion that perhaps it's a result of coming from larger families where you have to speak over your siblings to be heard. i wouldn't go as far to say that it's a rule, but if it's true it fits because asians, especially south asians, and latinos do this too from my experience, and those cultures also feature huge families like american blacks. in any case it's fucking obnoxious when you can hear people hanging out in their apartment several units down.

There is no such thing as an objective journalist, they all have an agenda and a skewed point of view and the whole idea that they don't and somehow deserve special speech protections is a perversion of equal rights.  And yet as they expose themselves more and more as partisan hacks they demand more and more restrictions on everybody else's right to broadcast their views.  They are pampered little partisan shits.

you can't omit bias from language. anything with a thesis is going to be biased towards proving that thesis. what you seem to be arguing for zappa is the claim that all journalism is unethically biased. i reject that claim as well as the notion that "race baiting" is an industry standard. if anything, it's a standard in certain areas of politics, employed by demagogues at all ends of the spectrum. labeling every instance where racism may actually be at play as "race baiting" seems to play to a specific worldview just as labeling every instance involving conflict between members of differing races as racism does. it works both ways. but that's politics, and politics isn't journalism. regardless of however racism is used to manipulate public opinion in the political sphere, it is obvious that racism is alive and well in the world. therefore it shouldn't be surprising that instances of racism are routinely reported.

@ Webster uh yeah thats racist! You're targeting a race about noise issues! dude white people can be loud too! so can hispanics and asians and every other fucking human being, of course its racist to target an ethnicity on something like noise levels after a certain hour! are you kidding me?!






everything is racist if black people are mentioned, hispanics suffer more
discrimination in the US than blacks but the news isnt chomping at the bit to get
stories of racism against hispanics and the media like most liberals including
those here like to downplay racism against whites when it's a real fucking issue
and it's clearly being perpetuated by the media and many others

I didn't say it was unethical.  I said it was fraud.  Well maybe in that sense it is unethical.  My point also has absolutely nothing to do with race.  It has to do with assholes trying to maintain a monopoly based on false pretenses.

When I lived in Spain they talked very loudly too. That was one of the first things I noticed.

My neighbors are black and they're like the quietest people in the world. I really had no idea black people were stereotyped as being loud and obnoxious, if this is true then they sound like my kind of people. :cool:

Anyway black people can be as loud as they want, they were enslaved and mistreated for hundreds of years. everyone, especially the whites, need to give em a fucking break.

I agree, and if the cop had lost his patience and done something then it got all over the news claiming cop brutality, I'd be the first to say he shoulda just handed it over.

I don't really care if people fuck with cops, just irritates me when they do and bitch about the consequences.

That cop was getting pissed though. I loved it.

I woulda told that cop to fuck right off too, but I'm pretty sure he had to give him his ID because he was in the drivers seat of a car...

That cop was still harassing him for no fucking reason though.

Yeah I know that, but the cop still had no reason to even walk up to him and harass him anyways. The suspect made it worse for sure, but the cop was being a piece of shit.
