The US seems to be teetering on the brink of serious civil disorder.  Surely it's not long before they all start shooting each other.

That fat useless cunt hanging out of the jeep was complaining that its a free country and how dare he protest their protest.

 

WUT?

See this is like a lot of society. Tories, and other sections of community. They are allowed free reign to say/do what they want. Challenge that and "Oh no you can't do that!!!! How dare you!" 

 

Americans are absolute murder for that. Especially if you aren't American. Get into a discussion with an American and see how offended they get when you praise the NHS or say that allowing people to buy a semi-automatic weapon to defend their home is nuts. The "How dare you!" brigade need fucking into the sea.

Would make a nice difference to it just been the usual school kids I suppose.

They did indeed.

For the first time in almost two decades, there were no mass school shootings in the US during the month of March.

Just in schools, I'm sure the rest of the population are still offing each other as much as they can under the circumstances.

You are only six feet away, if you miss from there you deserve to be shot by an off duty policeperson.

Probably.

Probably the real reason he's so keen to get things moving again.

 

US oil prices turn negative as demand dries up

 

The price of US oil has turned negative for the first time in history.

 

That means oil producers are paying buyers to take the commodity off their hands over fears that storage capacity could run out in May.

 

Demand for oil has all but dried up as lockdowns across the world have kept people inside.

As a result, oil firms have resorted to renting tankers to store the surplus supply and that has forced the price of US oil into negative territory.

 

The price of a barrel of West Texas Intermediate (WTI), the benchmark for US oil, fell as low as minus $37.63 a barrel.

 

The severe drop on Monday was driven in part by a technicality of the global oil market. Oil is traded on its future price and May futures contracts are due to expire on Tuesday. Traders were keen to offload those holdings to avoid having to take delivery of the oil and incur storage costs.

 

 

June prices for WTI were also down, but trading at above $20 per barrel. Meanwhile, Brent Crude - the benchmark used by Europe and the rest of the world - was also weaker, down 8.9% at less than $26 a barrel.

The oil industry has been struggling with both tumbling demand and in-fighting among producers about reducing output.

 

Earlier this month, Opec members and its allies finally agreed a record deal to slash global output by about 10%. The deal was the largest cut in oil production ever to have been agreed.

But some analysts said the cuts were not big enough to make a difference.

 

"It hasn't taken long for the market to recognise that the Opec+ deal will not, in its present form, be enough to balance oil markets," said Stephen Innes, chief global market strategist at Axicorp.

Are those car drivers trying to drive past the crossing or is that a stand-off?

To be fair there used to be the odd shout of fuck off back to Cuba on here a good few years back.

When a hospital system in Massachusetts scored precious PPE, they put it in food-service trucks and sent them on different routes to avoid interception—by the federal government.

That's fucking mental. I suspect he's trying to seize the supplies so that he can dole them out, like treats, to compliant state governors.

Fucked up isn't it? 

 

What's baffling is that his acolytes constantly bemoan 'government interfering in our lives' and yet no President in living memory has used executive orders or ICE as bluntly and as wildly as he has.

That’s quality.

It must be a first for a sitting president to promote civil unrest in his own country.

 

Another first for The Orange Toddler.

Don't you hate when people do that - then post something or other.
