Kerry Coddett replaces John for SCS with Ana and Margaret. Positive updates on Lamar Odom’s condition. Now that Federal government has decided to demilitarize police depts across the country, the chief of one Florida town complained that losing a TANK would lead to the deaths of his officers. He lamented the fact that they would be going on suicide missions. A British student is outraged over a mandatory class that will teach students about consent. He responded by posting a picture holding a sign asking if he looks like a rapist.

Book stores in Germany will begin selling Mein Kampf after a ban was lifted on having it. Discussion of whether or not this could be dangerous. A study showed that religious beliefs go to the portion of the brain that copes with issues like death. It also showed that people shocked in that portion of their brain were more likely to be sympathetic to immigrants. A study showed that hangovers at work cost businesses billions of dollars in lost productivity.

A Target store in California accidentally played porn over the intercom system, causing some customers to fall apart. One man said he felt violated.

Comments

  3. The story about shocking the frontal lobe was utterly disgusting. Where was Jimmy when you needed him? :(

    A caveat first: I am NOT criticizing in this incoming comment: It revealed an incredibly amount of ignorance in the “power panel” on the issue. (You don’t have to be experts on any subject, that’s fine. I’m not criticizing at all. It’s just “disgusting” like when TYT reports on IT technology or any field of study where they have absolutely no clue. Just do a different story.) Their thoughts on it show so little understanding of psychology, science, or even basic reasoning. (This is not at all an interesting study. I would never report such irrelevant nonsense.) I say this because it’s incredibly obvious how incredibly bad this study is. At best, it’s like when a study concludes that men like boobs. What a shocker!

    At worst, it’s a study about as useful as a study which proves that when you strike someone repeatedly in the head with a crowbar they are no longer capable of Complex Algebra until the beating stops. That if you give them a frontal lobotomy, they will no longer be capable of deep philosophical debate.

    “Hmm…interesting…whenever we’re beating him to near death, he is unable to calculate the square root of Pi until AFTER we stop….”

    “Fascinating Study!”

    “Perhaps we should devote 15 minutes to it? Absolutely thrilling stuff.”

  4. I don’t particularly care about the college story but I will say this… anyone = who holds a sign that says “this is not what a rapist looks like” has, at a bare minimum, 3 women locked in a basement somewhere

  5. The consent class issue comes down to whether it was mandatory for everybody or just men, If it was only for men than it’s misandrist.

  6. Regarding the sex consent boundaries class…this is OSM! There needs to be a numeutral 3rd party that sets the social guidelines for where the line is, how to define it, and how to respect it.. I dont understand the student who is against it…the ambiguity if sensual boundaries is at the root of the problem

  7. LOL, so you get shock to shut down your brain cells and the result is: There is no God. & Bring in all the ppl you want there is no overpopulation either. someone must have shocked TYT’s brain to make them report that.
    OK I am not live tweeting. time to stop random comments. this is my last one. ooohhh hard to stop, so hard

  8. I still love TYT, even though I complain. One of my biggest issues is Ana will not acknowledge that men are stronger than women and more aggressive. This is not the first time she has said that unwanted sexual advances coming from a woman are an equal threat as those coming from a man. That is just not reality.

    1. I didn’t think so until they all started falling all over themselves to say rape is not a gender issue. Women can be predators too.. yeah, I am so sure. women rape guys when they are too drunk to say no. Women jump out of the bushes and over power some helpless man. Oh no he will be overpowered.

      PC gone way to far. I hope they didn’t get scared by those MRA trolls.

      1. Women can rape other women, they did that one story recently, but unless a woman knocks out a man and ties him to a bed it’s quite a bit more difficult for a woman to rape a man and unless the man is gay, he might even like it, though of course it would still be unethical to force yourself on anyone in any case.
