Ana joins Cenk, Ben, and Brian for SCS.  Police in Oklahoma beat a man to death after they responded to a domestic dispute between the man’s wife and daughter. A push for more drug testing is being assisted by a newspaper, especially of the elderly.  Colorado Court of Appeals has ruled that people in jail over marijuana charges can appeal and potentially get out.  Talk about what social issue people will debate when this one is fully accepted by the marijuana lobby.  Cenk predicts that in 5 years, the War on Drugs focusing on marijuana will be over.  A high school teacher was banned from a school event that Obama showed up to because he has had a history of very hateful things said and tweeted about the president.  The school denied that it was what he said as the reason he can’t come to the event.  Real life pimps were interviewed for a study, and they had some interesting things to say about what real pimps are like.  They don’t like the term pimp, look down upon Mexican pimps, and some admitted that they were brought into the game by prostitutes.

  2. I liken our justice system to the assyrian gods. chaotic and sociopathic. Sometimes you can wreck half the country and they take no notice, other times you jaywalk and you get arrested, and you never know who they decide they want to kill for giggles.

  3. re the pimp story and the modern pimp’s reluctance to allow black men to hump their white girls… Interestingly enough, my kid works in the porn video distribution biz and spends all day long QC’ing all types of porn be it gay, tranny, vanilla, you name it… She says the most overwhelmingly prevalent porn trope out there is “black man with enormous dong versus petite white MILF”. Her observation is supported by data released about racism inherent in online hookup sites like okcupid, google it. This topic is ripe with innuendo and punny story titles. Get on top of this, TYT!

  4. everyone is wearing a lav mic… why does it sound like youre riding audio levels on your talent. sounds a little fucked up.

  5. Commenting more today than ever…. Having been a teacher, I can say that his contract probably has something about representing the school well. While he does have free speech rights, calling our president a pussy is NOT modeling good behavior, ESPECIALLY for a ss teacher.

  6. I’m also surprised they were OK with her taping. Re: bad cop in the midst – forget the whole country, if there were one in this group and they didn’t reign his ass in, they are all looking at murder charges. (Ha! I wish!) They are directly hurting themselves.

  7. OMG, I can’t believe he fucking died!!!! WTF?!?! I was so surprised when Anna said that. I hope she sues and gets HELLA DAMAGES. These cops need to get put in check. I hope she got the whole f’ing thing on video.
