    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    Yeah sadly, we seem to be entering a new dangerous phase. It is a shame if Turkey does go under as it is probably the only muslim country that has a democratically elected government that appears on the face of it to be successful.

    It's gratifying to see the reaction of the Turkish people. They decided they were against this coup, and rose up and stopped it.

    A true win for democracy.

    265 reported deaths as a result of the coup, including 104 soldiers involved in the plot.

    Hang on, give the yanks a crack. Plenty of imploding going on with regular random massacres, blacks and cops, and a bit more if Trump keeps going.
