• Radicalized Iraq Vet Charged With Attempting to Join & Fund Somali Islamists

  January 10, 2012 at 9:31am

  In reply to Nevermind.

  Actually why don’t you go read the report. It labeled vets returning from the war as likely to become right-wing radical terrorists. Right-wing radicals refers to Fascists and Neo-Nazi type groups, and based on the report it included various Militia groups. It said nothing about returning Muslim troops turning to domestic terrorism. The report was about white males returning from the war and joining these groups.

  Your anti-GOP spin isn’t going to work here. The readers of the Blaze.com are actually educated. You should espouse your lies elsewhere, where they might actually work.

  Wow! That is not cool. Black has nothing to do with it. Race has nothing to do with it. It is about beliefs and radicalism.

• Should ‘Self-Defense‘ Apply to McDonald’s Cashier Who Beat, Crushed Customer’s Skull With Metal Rod?

  October 18, 2011 at 11:10am

  The man was slapped and walked away. He saw the woman jump the counter and the other walking around to the other side. The rule of self dense is this. If you walk away and they follow you, you are not out of danger. Then there is the escalation of force. He was outnumbered so his own strength could not be considered an escalation of force. So he grabbed a metal bar. The women continued to move towards him, despite the fact he was brandishing the bar. The woman clearly could have backed off. They were clearly intent on a confrontation.

  This is based solely on the video. We cannot see if he continued to beat the women after the threat of their actions ceased. At the very worst, if he does in fact get a fair trial and his past is left out of it, aggravated assault is most he deserves with a suspended sentence. Unfortunately he will likely end up with a public defender who hates his job.

• Bank of America to Charge $5 Month Fee for Using Debit Card

  In reply to YammusBaggus.

  @ THEEPOLITINATOR

  If you think any business has no overhead you are the liberal my friend. There is all kinds of overhead at a bank. I design computer systems for a bank and it is extremely expensive to buy servers from companies like HP and IBM that cost more than than most houses in the U.S. A typical P-series AIX server from IBM costs nearly $500,000. Other serves can cost anywhere from $4000 – $60,000. Those servers are used to process your debit card, credit card, auto loan, home loan, or just about anything else you do with a bank.

  You want to pay your bills online, there are computers that have to support that as well as staff that have to support it so it stays up running and is there for YOU to use when YOU wish to use it. That all costs money. The customer pays for that service or feature.

  The guy that has a lawn cutting business charges his fees based on fuel and maintenance, salaries, etc – you as the business or homeowner pay those costs for the service.

  Lest you never forget – the consumer pays for EVERYTHING. The consumer pays corporate taxes, overhead, everything and everything. So when you or anyone else espouse “tax the bastard corporations” or business, think first who those fees/taxes will get passed onto. You and I.

  It saddens me to see all these people who read the blaze and pretend to be conservative – read the headline only and neglect to realize it is a fee in response to laws passed by those fools on the Hill. WAKE UP

• Feds Frisk Finance Firm

  September 28, 2011 at 2:33pm

  This doesn’t sound like it is just about structured settlement payment buyouts, but rather something shady going on with the CEO, et al. The firm in Bahamas only owning shares in the one company (Imperial Holdings) is pretty shady and it is clear as to the purpose. Then you have Pine Trading which the CEO is also in business with personally. Too many shady things going on. I think the feds are right on this one and are doing their job finally. Not everything is about Obama trying to screw Americans over. Obama isn’t sitting their in the oval office saying… “hmm… lets bust Imperial Holdings today.”

• Woman Embarrassingly Buys $180 Block of Wood Thinking It’s an iPad

  In reply to Ghandi was a Republican.

  She should be arrested for being so stupid. The “crooks’ should be applauded for either being such good salesmen or for being abel to identify the dumbest person on earth. The cops should fine her the other $180 bucks fro wasting their time.

• Justice Dept Blocks AT&T’s $39 Billion Deal to Buy T-Mobile

  Seriously? Good point? The Comcast deal and the AT&T deal are apples to oranges comparison.

• Justice Dept Blocks AT&T’s $39 Billion Deal to Buy T-Mobile

  August 31, 2011 at 2:49pm

  In reply to HuskerDave.

  I would disagree. Just because AT&T was denied doesn’t mean nobody else can purchase T-Mobile. It is just that AT&T can’t. Sprint might be able to which would make them even more competitive against Verizon and AT&T. Or some other company can com in an swoop T-Mobile and start investing in it to bring the infrastructure and the network up to snuff so that it can compete on its own merits.

  It is crystal clear that AT&T is full of it when they site the reason for buying T-Mobile in order to expand service to customers. It would cost more to buy T-mobile than it would to expand it’s network through cell towers, communications infrastructure, etc. It would cost them billions more to buy T-Mobile. So it is strictly to provide less choice and be less competitive in the mobile market place.

  Don’t kid yourselves and turn this into a political issue.

• Did Google Create ‘Google+’ Just to Amass More Info About You?

  August 30, 2011 at 4:36pm

  In reply to ejbonk.

  Google is only after profits. Facebook’s profits primarily. Facebook and Zuckerberg want to change the world. Zuckerberg wants to change the world and the way people behave through transparency. Zuckerberg believes (true to some degree) that people will not act in certain ways if they know their friends and family are watching. So if everyone in the world is on Facebook, then there would be total transparency and he believes that society would be better off. Zuckerberg believes heavily in the Northwest Native America “potlatch”. Each time you post on Facebook, you are gift-giving information to advertisers. He is a socialist who enjoys making $billions of dollars a year.

• Scary? Hacker Reveals How To Access Voicemails Like a Pro

  August 30, 2011 at 3:50pm

  So funny how something that we’ve been doing for quite some time and a group gets caught using a relatively old trick and it makes international news, somehow this is like some new security threat to people.

  Anyway, why people don’t password protect their voicemail is beyond me. You password protect everything else, but not your VM? Really?
