How times have changed. This is what Bill Clinton had to say upon the occasion of Pol Pot’s death:
“The death of Khmer Rouge leader Pol Pot has again brought to international attention one of the most tragic chapters of inhumanity in the twentieth century. Between 1975 and 1979, Pol Pot and his Khmer Rouge followers transformed Cambodia into the killing fields, causing the death of an estimated two million of their countrymen in a brutal attempt to transform Cambodian society.
“Although the opportunity to hold Pol Pot accountable for his monstrous crimes appears to have passed, senior Khmer Rouge, who exercised leadership from 1975 to 1979, are still at large and share responsibility for the monstrous human rights abuses committed during this period. We must not permit the death of the most notorious of the Khmer Rouge leaders to deter us from the equally important task of bringing these others to justice. And equally, we must renew our determination to prevent such atrocities from occurring in the future.
“Now is a time to remember the victims of Pol Pot’s murderous reign of terror and to underscore our determination to help the Cambodian people achieve a lasting peace based on respect for basic human rights and democratic principles.”
Vedder obviously didn’t listen to what Butker said, or he is unable to understand the clear language. Ranting about things taken out of context — what a jackass.

Yeah, that sounds like a real life-threatening emergency worthy of a 911 call for an ALS provider to respond with lights and sirens.
DETECTIVE FOSTER: Yeah, and we’re not gonna fall for a banana in the tailpipe.
AXEL FOLEY: You’re not gonna fall for the banana in the tailpipe? It should be more natural, brother. It should flow out, like this: “Look, man, I ain’t fallin’ for no banana in my tailpipe!” See, that’s more natural for us. You been hanging out with this dude too long.

Late last year, a 13-member commission created by the DFL-led Legislature was given a timeline of four months and a budget of $35,000 to redesign both the flag and the state's seal.
The central image on both shows a white settler plowing a field in the foreground with a rifle and an ax resting on a nearby tree stump. In the background, a Native American man on horseback rides westward toward the setting sun.
I read this and thought it sounded really cool and was surprised they picked it. Then I realized this was the description of the bad old design.
Ten thousand complaints in just one week! All the people speaking out clearly demonstrates the magnitude of the problem and the fact that people don’t want men in the women’s room.
