    Rampant Police Brutality and Media censorship in Ferguson Missouri

    I know I sure as hell wouldn't be present if a bunch of gun-toting white people were parading down the street. That shit be scary, lol. But in all seriousness, yeah it is pretty clearly a race issue and the police are pretty clearly in the wrong. It's a pretty bad situation down there right...

    8 Countries That Have Declared Independence From England

    Wait, Scots? As in Scotland? Aren't you still technically a part of England? I know you're your own separate country and all, but you're still connected to them via the UK, and thus more or less under English control, right? Either way, Scotland's never exactly "declared independence."
