Sexually abusing and harassing children isn't just fine it's an old past time.

President Trump officially supports Pedophilia. GOP is the party of the Pedo. I'm glad it's official.

That SNL staffer thing is some hot garbage to me. How someone has treated me has fuck all to do with behaviors and actions towards another person.

About fucking time. Rot in hell you piece of shit. Still infuriating how Serbia is not happy about the sentence. They never had their catharsis and Chetniks are still seen as heroes.

By Francis Go To PostRatko Mladić sentenced to life in prison. It's been a long time coming.Is it a quick explanation of why he's a piece of shit or is there an article or something you can recommend I read to learn the context of why this is a big deal?
By Kibner Go To PostIs it a quick explanation of why he's a piece of shit or is there an article or something you can recommend I read to learn the context of why this is a big deal?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratko_Mladić
A long-time member of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia, Mladić began his career in the Yugoslav People's Army in 1965. He came to prominence in the Yugoslav Wars, initially as a high-ranking officer of the Yugoslav People's Army and subsequently as the Chief of Staff of the Army of Republika Srpska in the Bosnian War of 1992–1995. In 2017, he was sentenced to life in prison by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) for genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity. As the top military general with command responsibility, Mladić has been convicted by the ICTY of being responsible for the Siege of Sarajevo (5 April 1992 to 29 February 1996) and the Srebrenica massacre. He has often been referred to by Western media as the Butcher of Bosnia, a title also sometimes applied to Radovan Karadžić, the former President of Republika Srpska.If you really want to go in-depth and learn the backstory, watch The Death of Yugoslavia.

Finally I say. This is the last case the Haag will hear from the Yugoslavian wars I believe.

Man, I was so young during that crisis that I barely remember much of it. :( The only thing that sticks out is everyone saying how terrible it is and how Chelsea Clinton was very outspoken about it for a kid (retroactively, that seems more PR than anything else). I think there were maybe commercials on TV asking for donations to help the refugees?
I have a much better idea now why people are so happy that some form of justice was brought this guy's way.

UN, NATO and (least of all) the US did jack shit in the grand scheme of things. Their "intervention" and course of action was very similar to how the Rwandan genocide was handled.
Poorly is an understatement.

But in parts of Kosovo and Bosnia, Bill Clinton is revered as a hero for his handling of the conflict at large. They even have a statue of him in Pristina.
Poorly is an understatement.

The American Exceptionalist in me thinks that if the US cared to be involved as much as they should have, a 3.5 year siege of a city wouldn't have happened.
Poorly is an understatement.

By Perfect Blue Go To Posthttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jan/21/14-years-fugitive-hunt-for-ratko-mladic-butcher-of-bosniaStill reading the article but this made me go "wtf":
[…] But General Mladić was never so busy with the war that he could not take the occasional weekend off to play board games and relax with his wife and two grown children, Darko and Ana, whom he kept safe in Belgrade.
At these game nights, no one was allowed to mention politics or the war, but that did not stop the conflict from pulling the family apart. Ana was in her early 20s and had fallen in love with a young doctor – a human rights activist who believed his putative father-in-law to be a war criminal. He would only marry Ana if she renounced her father. Unable to do that or to give up her dreams of love and marriage, she took her father’s favourite pistol from its display case after a night of board games in February 1994 and shot herself.
Mladić could not accept his daughter’s suicide. He found solace instead in conspiracy theories that put the blame on his enemies. It was a conviction that took the burden of guilt off his shoulders and deepened a reservoir of hatred toward non-Serbs.

Rakić also felt the unmistakable presence of the FSB looking over his shoulder. In 2008, he and a colleague made a clandestine trip to the Hague tribunal to discuss the Mladić case. They flew a roundabout route and Dutch protection officers drove them straight into the tribunal’s underground car park. On his return, however, Rakić received a visit from one of Mladić’s supporters in the security services, warning him that his family would be in peril if he continued to cooperate with the court. Lest there be any doubt over the seriousness of the threat, he recited details of Rakić’s young son’s daily routine.
Shocked at the threat, Rakić angrily denied he was collaborating with the court, insisting he had never even been to The Hague. Without a word, the visitor took a piece of paper and drew a diagram of a conference table. Then he wrote out the name of every person who had attended his meeting in The Hague, indicating precisely where each of them had been sitting. Rakić described it as the most chilling moment of his life. From that moment on, until his death from cancer in 2014, he travelled with a two-man protection team.

Last Week Tonight did a bit on this in Ferguson Missouri a while back. They had more outstanding warrants than black people lol, which made almost any police stop valid for 'probable cause'. Endless feedback loop of fines and penalties and stops.

Gary Cohn faked a bad connection to get off a call with Trump, Democratic senator says
https://www.cnbc.com/2017/11/22/tom-carper-says-gary-cohn-faked-bad-connection-to-get-off-trump-call.html
LOL
https://www.cnbc.com/2017/11/22/tom-carper-says-gary-cohn-faked-bad-connection-to-get-off-trump-call.html
"About 30 minutes into the call, Gary gets up and takes a call on his cellphone, comes back into the room, and says, we have somebody calling in from Asia, and it was the president, which was nice. Nice of him to do that," Carper said, according to a transcript shared by a CNN reporter. "15 minutes later, the president is still talking. And I said to Gary, it was a room where we're all sitting around this big table, and I said, Gary why don't you do this, just take the phone from, you know, your cellphone back and just say, 'Mr. President, you're brilliant! But we're losing contact, and I think we're going to lose you now, so good-bye.'"
"And that's what he did, and he hung up," Carper said.
A CNN anchor then asked if Cohn faked a bad connection to get off the phone with Trump.
"Well, I wouldn't — I don't want to throw him under the bus, but yes," the senator responded.
