Comment Re:First blacks, (Score 1) 917

Could you kick someone out of your bar for getting naked and defecating in the middle of the room?

Yes, because defecating in the middle of the room is a health issue and can damage property. Your question is the same as "If you allow gay marriage, why not marrying sheep?" If the difference between being gay and defecating in someone's business is not very clear to you, you have a problem.

At least he wasn't wearing a red shirt as part of the away team. While not claiming it was intended, the movie The Edge seemed to go down that path. Anthony Hopkins, Alec Baldwin and a black guy (Harold Perrineau) are stranded by a plane crash in the northern wilderness. Then there was a bear. Then there was no black guy.

Comment CEO pay IS based on performance (Score 4, Funny) 712

If a company succeeds, CEO pay increases because their super human abilities are solely responsible for corporate performance. If a company fails, CEO pay increases because their super human abilities limited the damage from incompetent workers and are needed to liquidate the company in an orderly fashion.
