Pakistan - Nanga Parbat - Taliban murders
glassgowkiss replied to ScaredSilly's topic in Climber's Board
Let's start with some facts. First of all, this is not the first time Taliban attacked in that area. There are at least 3 attacks in the past 3 years, most famous one was on a cricket team from Sri Lanka in 2009. There were several instances of sectarian violence, mostly going unreported by the press in the US. Killed people were infidel, killed Pakistani was Shias, and this was the sole reason he was killed. -

These killings were religiously motivated, so the logic is sound. -

This is fucked. -
I would not recommend plastic bags, as soft plastics (at least in the US) contain BPA and Phosphoric Acid. In a heat (trunk of a cur or any other hot place) both will be contaminating whatever they are toughing. I am not sure about BPA ((CH3)2C(C6H4OH)2), but Phosphoric Acid (H3PO4) would have exact same results as other acids over a longer period.

Which part of no SAR on the ledge for 3 hours you have hard time comprehending? There was no need to move anyone to just get by them. Having fewer people on the ledge, while conducting rescue, would have been safer for everyone. But you just keep posting your self-righteous bullshit.
-
You are just a genuine idiot. Have you even done this route? Feeling better after spewing a bunch of meaningless bullshit on your soapbox?
-
for the record, I climbed on the same route with the party right behind injured climbers on Sunday. With all due respect- I doubt Perry was conducting interviews about what was said and done before SAR arrived. I talked to them about it for about 10 minutes, so the account given is fairly accurate. Climbers in question were quite young, but very competent. I also have done this route over 10 times, and do not believe that there was a logical reason not to climb past them. Also the second party did not have medical training or supplies to provide any meaningful help.

sure, what do you expect from a polak?

Last Saturday there was an accident on Angels's Crest on p7- resulting a broken ankle. They also refused the party after them to continue climbing to the top, and held them up on the ledge (top of p6) for over 3 hours for no real good reason. I know that people in pain don't have the best judgement, but they clearly created a total cluster fuck. For one additional people under a flying chopper is not a good idea, second- they forced people to rap into North Gully with a single rope. Kudos to Squamish SAR, speedy recovery to the injured. Just one request- next time don't bring your assclown shoes.

If you think you can get that impacted cock out of your mouth using only chi massage and acupuncture, rather than surgery, go right ahead sunshine. I am sure you are an expert on this subject after having vast experience with duct taped chickens. I am also sure your velcro gloves would increase the friction of the grip during an attempt of removal.

Even if you push bike up, it makes it worth for the way out.
-
If you don't know the sources, what kind of "accounting" are you talking about? If you remove transparency, how do you avoid foreign money influencing elections? I think your approach is completely naive. It's the same argument of self regulating by banking industry- it simply never worked.
-
which is nothing less then political money laundering. I would not be surprised also if it is a real money laundering for drug cartels and foreign intelligence services. Along with unsupervised "just meta-data" gathering it makes me feel like I am back in Poland 30 years ago.
-
I wish people stopped giving medical advice over the internet, particularly the one who don't know jack shit about the subject and particularly people who are clearly wrong. And stop advocating for unnecessary and outdated surgery. I just was kicked off FB group for calling his bullshit.

I think these organizations should not be tax exempt, regardless of the side of political spectrum.
-
You are right 501c. But the fact remains they are just political organizations and should not be granted tax exempt status in any way shape and form. These guys are just abusing the system, and now they are distorting the truth about "being targeted".
-
Another idiot with a show on Fox...... she should join with palin to produce "Americas stupidest network videos".
-
Read Now why is only conservative groups are crying foul? And why should they be granted 503c status in the first place. Political organizations are for profit- period. It's not like they do charitable work. On that token let's grant every corporation 503c status.

well and the most famous Tacoma Bridge: [video:youtube]j-zczJXSxnw

Probably Rudy should speak up about it, since it's his field and he would be one of the most qualified people to talk about the subject. My thoughts are, that if one truck can collapse the bridge, it is an outdated design. It also could be a combination of the design, fatigue of the material and human error. Unfortunately looks like a loss of life is also involved.
