Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Nice try.
Bullshit. Bullshit. Bullshit.

You have to go back to 1974 for a lesson on GD for me? The USWNT is the huge favorite in the entire competition. Their group is particularly weak. It consists of the top ranked side, the 10th ranked side, the 19th ranked side and the 24th ranked side. So the best team in the whole competition faced off against the weakest team in the whole competition. There's no way in hell the USWNT is going to rely upon GD to get through. That's ridiculous on its face.

But, for the sake of your argument, let's say the USWNT really, really thought they might need the GD to get through and that every other nation's side was as pathetically unsportsmanlike as they are and so they had to score ten goals in the second half because everybody else will do it and hey, we're all unsportsmanlike c*nts here.

I don't really take issue with that. What no one can defend is the manner in which they celebrated goals 9 through 13. That was horrifically unsportsmanlike. I sincerely hope that during the course of this competition the USWNT ends up with no less than ten broken legs.

New Running up the score and celebrations are different issues.
They can't be (reasonably) faulted for running up the score (IMHO).

I didn't see the game or the celebrations. But if I were some 2nd or 3rd string player on the US National Team playing in the Word Cup tournament, you bet your bippy I would celebrate like mad on getting a goal - it may be the only one I'll ever get one in such a tournament.

YMMV.

(You pick the strangest things to get all high-and-mighty-vengeful about. Children are dying in cages, the EPA is being gutted, Measles is back, Ebola is back, Donnie is trying to monetize everything that isn't nailed down, but OMG! LOOK AT THE USWNT CELEBRATING!!!!1)

New where are kids dying in cages?

The little boy playing in the parking lot of a Seventh-day Adventist Church here was startled when three U.S. Customs and Border Protection vehicles pulled in.

Favio Ferreira, a 7-year-old from Guatemala, ran inside to tell the others.

“Come, come, la migra!” he said.

But the agents weren’t there to round up people who were in the country illegally. They were dropping immigrants off.

Rolling Stone:

Hours after President Trump declared in the White House Rose Garden that he doesn’t “do coverups,” his administration revealed that it had been hiding the death of a migrant girl at the border for the past eight months. On Thursday evening, CBS News reported that a 10-year-old girl from El Salvador died last September while under the care of the government. The Department of Health and Human Services confirmed the death, which had not been previously disclosed.

HHS spokesman Mark Weber explained that the girl had a history of heart problems and was in a “medically fragile” state when she arrived at an Office of Refugee Resettlement facility last March. The girl’s name was not released, and it’s unclear why the death was not previously reported. “I have not seen any indication that the Trump administration disclosed the death of this young girl to the public or even to Congress,” Rep. Joaquín Castro (D-TX) told CBS. “And if that’s the case, they covered up her death for eight months, even though we were actively asking the question about whether any child had died or been seriously injured. We began asking that question last fall.”


NBCNews:

At least seven children are known to have died in immigration custody since last year, after almost a decade in which no child reportedly died while in the custody of U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

The string of cases continue to raise questions around the conditions in which migrant children are being kept at a time when a growing number of migrants, many of them Central American parents with children, are presenting themselves at the border to seek asylum.

Aside from the fact that children may have underlying health conditions, most are reaching the United States after arduous journeys during which they have had little access to clean shelter and proper provisions. Many are leaving impoverished and drought-stricken regions.


YahooNews:

For the past year and a half, Dr. Eric Russell has been traveling from Houston to McAllen, Texas, every three months or so to volunteer at the Catholic Charities Humanitarian Respite Center, a first stop for many asylum-seeking migrants who’ve been released by U.S. Customs and Border Protection in the Rio Grande Valley.

During his most recent visit to the clinic in April, when he saw more than 150 migrants, he noted a troubling new trend: a number of people reported that their medication had been taken from them by U.S. border officials.

“I had a few adults that came who had high blood pressure, who had their blood pressure medications taken from them and, not surprisingly, their blood pressure was elevated,” Russell told Yahoo News. “There was a couple of adults that had diabetes that had their diabetes medicines taken from them, and wanted to come in because they were worried about their blood sugar. And, not surprisingly, their blood sugar was elevated.”

For Russell, a pediatric emergency medicine physician, the patient who stood out the most during that visit was a boy of 8 or 9 with a history of seizures. According to his mother, the child had been on a long-term seizure medicine in their home country, but the medication had been taken from him upon entering the Border Patrol custody in McAllen and never returned.

“The mom came to the clinic because she was concerned that he was going to have a seizure,” said Russell. He wasn’t sure exactly how long they’d been in custody — “usually it's a matter of days,” he said, “but with seizure medicines, that’s enough.”


Etc.

Scott.

First Roxsana Hernández was beaten to death by ICE while in restraints. Now we have evidence they murdered Johana too. But keep pretending ICE aren't murderous scumbags running concentration camps. 24 people have died in their custody so far. How many more must die?
24 out of the 160k this last month alone? The feds need to get off their ass if killing migrants is their goal. Seriously nother your cites reek of infowars and briebart and russian election interference. There is a real industry in this sort of partisanship money to be made by all. They are rolling it in.

The previous story didn't say 24 were killed in one month. Read more carefully. And stop making excuses.

Nobody in US custody should die - especially nobody seeking asylum. And those seeking asylum shouldn't be in cages or have their medication taken from them.

We're supposed to follow the law and serve as an example.

Cheers,
Scott.
New nothing indicates that ICE did the abuse in that story
24 deaths over a long period in a population of 100k+ is not a bad stat, not perfect but not bad. Your statement now is now along way from killing kids in cages, thats all I wanted to note

New *Nobody* should die in US custody, least of all children looking for asylum.

New Oh please
That is unrealistic.

Try to apply the statistics of the general population and number of deaths versus the quantity they have in their custody. It'll be close if not matching.


So what would you have them do?
New 10 years without a death until Donnie shows up (according to an earlier reply)...
