Not quite sure which category of prejudice Gaspar's posting is supposed to represent with that...
The anti-beard movement?  The youth-jealousy party?

You will probably have to turn away from MSNBC and KOS for just a moment.  Sorry.

Ah, so the 1%er's are placing the blame on the OWS to deflect from the tea party's ill-timed attempt on the president's life.  Sad.

Bachmann prob wants Sasha's red shoes.  Diabolical.

Here come the fatalities:



Campus Police Kill UC Berkeley Student

BERKELEY -- A UC Berkeley spokesman identified the man shot to death Tuesday afternoon by campus police at the Haas School of Business as 32-year-old Christopher Nathen Elliot Travis, a transfer student to the school this fall semester.

There is no information connecting the shooting to Occupy Cal protests Tuesday on the campus, UC Berkeley spokesman Dan Mogulof said.

The man was shot by university police after he brought a handgun into a business school computer lab Tuesday afternoon, officials said.
The man was the only person injured.

The business school dean, chancellor and police chief met with Haas students Wednesday morning to brief them on the shooting and to alert them that the suspect was indeed a colleague.

The rare officer-involved shooting came as an unexpected twist to an already tense day on campus.

As students began their rally outside Sproul Hall and evicted Occupy Oakland protesters amassed at Frank H. Ogawa Plaza to march to Berkeley, a man, about 5-foot-8 and wearing a blue jacket and blue backpack, entered an elevator in the Haas School of
Business, said Lyle Nevels, the business school spokesman. A business school employee entered the same elevator, and as it ascended, she noticed the suspect pull out a handgun from his backpack and then place it back inside.

When three officers questioned the man, he said, the suspect pulled out the gun and "displayed it in a threatening manner." One officer fired multiple shots, Celaya said. The man did not return fire, and a handgun was found near him, Lt. Alex Yao said. No one else was injured.

The shooting was caught on a computer lab camera, and officials will review the tape, campus police Capt. Margo Bennett said.

It's a patric post, which means that the police obviously stalked the guy for weeks, sneaked up behind him while he was minding his own business, shot him, and then planted the gun. Video will confirm all of this.

Hippy!

Last day of Navy Boot Camp was the last time I shaved it all off.   

Sailors were allowed to have a beard then.  I never failed an inspection after the first one in Boot Camp (while clean shaven). I knew a few guys that were a few years younger that needed a few more years to grow a beard that would pass inspection.  I did get told to get a haircut occasionally but the beard was never an issue.
