JAMES GUNN FIRED FROM ‘GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL 3′!
James Gunn has been removed as director of ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3′ following controversy surrounding a series of offensive “jokes” that surfaced on twitter. No other information has been revealed!
Hey so it’s worth noting that the person leading this charge is an alt right author and actual honest to god proponent of rape and that James gunn apologized years ago and that all of these horrible very bad ‘jokes’ (since I guess we’re using quotes now) are at least seven years old.
I’m all for consequences for actions. But why are Scarjo or Renner still employed? And Why do people who actually do bad things get less flack than people who have demonstrated growth and change and are less disgusting than they used to be?
Why was a man who thinks rape is good louder than someone who knows he was being a dick when he joked about horrible things?
This is who got James Gunn fired. Just so yall know what the FUCK the world looks like today.
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) claims he is being “bullied” by former Ohio State wrestlers who accuse the congressman of turning a blind eye to the sexual abuse of hundreds of student athletes while he worked as the assistant wrestling coach from 1986 to 1994.
According to a CNN report Wednesday, Jordan will contact the Capitol police after receiving emails from one of the wrestlers who has accused Jordan of doing nothing about the sexual abuse by the team doctor, Dr. Richard Strauss.
Migrant children under the care of United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP) were allegedly beaten, threatened with sexual violence and repeatedly assaulted while in custody between 2009 and 2014, according to a report released Wednesday from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the International Human Rights Clinic at the University of Chicago Law School.
Based on 30,000 pages of documents obtained through a records request, the report includes gruesome, detailed accusations of physical and mental abuse at the hands of officers. The claims were filed by unaccompanied minors, most of whom hailed from El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico and Honduras. CBP officials have contested large swaths of the report, telling Newsweek that many of the allegations have been investigated and are “false.”
Border authorities were accused of kicking a child in the ribs and forcing a 16-year-old girl to “spread her legs” for an aggressive body search. Other children accused officers of punching a child in the head three times, running over a 17-year-old boy and denying medical care to a pregnant teen, who later had a stillbirth.
Mitra Ebadolahi, ACLU Border Litigation Project staff attorney, said the allegations describe a law enforcement system “marked by brutality and lawlessness.” The organization also accused Border Protection officials of failing to “meaningfully investigate” the allegations detailed in the public records.
“All human beings deserve to be treated with dignity and respect regardless of their immigration status—and children, in particular, deserve special protection,” she said. “The misconduct demonstrated in these records is breathtaking, as is the government’s complete failure to hold officials who abuse their power accountable.”
A left wing person: Hi, I champion the rights of minorities.
Me: Have you heard that people in their own country, speaking one of that country’s native languages have had to fight for the right to be educated in their own language?
LWP: That’s awful.
Me: Sixty years ago children were beaten in school for speaking it.
LWP: A sign of cultural imperialism if ever I’ve heard it.
Me: And now even slightly token support gets a load of vitriol from the right wing. Railway signs make them foam at the mouth.
LWP: Seeing a minority language causes people anger? That’s so backwards.
Me: Now they have 2.5 million over a period of 15 years to make a historical dictionary which already exists for English, its finally getting something that English speakers have taken for granted.
LWP: That’s great!
Me: Yeah, it’s really good that Scottish Gaelic has at least some support.
LWP: Scottish….Gaelic? Um, no thanks. That’s the preserve of blood and soil nationalists and I’m always suspicious of people who support it.
