  1. Yeah Turkey has a history of military intervention. Yeah it seems a few folk were almost waiting for this to happen. Including the council on foreign relations. I watched a video last year (which i posted) that talked about it, but forgot i had watched it till i saw the coup happening. 42 folk dead maybe 17 policemen and helicopters being shot down as the army fights the army. Not good at all.
  2. Looking like it has failed. 42 folk dead though Who's to say the people involved in the coup weren't involved in the blackmarket oil as well. Anyway I don't really know much about this seems it wasn't a surprised to some peeps.
  3. they were talking about the possibility on the corbet report about it being a possibility back in December. Seems a few folk saw it coming, I never,
  4. https://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/2016-05-30/turkeys-next-military-coup
  5. happened loads in turkey normally to stop crazy leaders, no idea this time.
  6. France has a huge history of terrorism due to them basically taking over the southern ottaman empire after WWI. EDIT: Algerian conflict etc
  7. Yeah we can do that, to make it worth our while though give us another 50 thread titles that need changed to reflect accuracy now.
  8. Shut up legs do what i tell you.
  9. ah they reset the time, so he still leads, oh well... I mean if you're going to dope, let's at least see the ceiling of it. I want to see how fast he can do this TT and the other MTF at full blast. Like Panatani and Armstrong up Ventoux
  10. Never got a chance to see it, hearing it is the crowd again, getting worse each year. Well Froome might have to show everything he has now, should be interesting now.
  11. It's just a shambles, i'm going to turn off and enjoy the spectacle of it all as a neutral observer.
  12. Why let folk vote again, you not paid attention to what doing that has done
  13. Not seen it but every American I know is raving about it. Is it not 10 hours or so?
  14. "Jeremy Corbyn was the principle factor behing the UK voting to leave EU referendum" Talk about being a bad loser.
  15. Exactly they all talked let's see who walks. There is a reason they tried to stop in being a voting option.
  16. The first time i went to the SLAM Tent it was Carl Cox followed by fatboy slim for 4 hours.
  17. The propaganda campaign is in full swing. It's always funny when the sham that is democracy is revealed in small ways.
  18. You have to the least assumptions possible (Occams razor and all that) so assuming uniform crime rates across demographics isn't a good starting point. It might even be deliberate sophistry by authorities in a divide and conquer manner.
  19. The reason i assumed you were assuming race was below. I can see where you're coming from though. " the higher the rate of crime in any demographic the more they will be arrested, imprisoned and sometimes shot by the police and this will end up with disproportionate numbers in jail and / or shot dead by police. " was the quote and you said " So if blacks are more likely to commit crimes, they are more likely to be in jail, and involved in sometimes fatal interactions with the police? So by that logic if you are black you are more likely to be involved in a crime, or more likely to be shot by police, as it is demographics? " All thplinth is saying with that is to come to the conclusion that from 13% population to 35% prison population to assume it is because of a racist system requires there to be equal rates of crime. Explaining the axioms built into that statistic cause as you say, they can be spun to say most things.
  20. Henman has always appeared sound, as Parkie says has a good relationship with Murray as a mentor. It's the hysteria surrounding Henman that was the problem. Like a lot of things it's the fans not the person.
  21. You're assuming race here. It could be age group, pay packet, social status, marital status. " the higher the rate of crime in any demographic the more they will be arrested, imprisoned and sometimes shot by the police and this will end up with disproportionate numbers in jail and / or shot dead by police. " is the quote, no need to make up another one that suits your argument better.
  22. @bajin Ordered the book from America just got it a couple of hours ago. it's pretty crazy so far and it's just the start. It's book 3 of 4, but 4th is written and will come out next July. Author just finishing off the glossary.
