Items In Bold Are Forms That You Will Need To File With The Court: Fill & Download for Free

Probably not. Citations are usually a good thing. I write numerous briefs and normally there is a citation for pretty much every sentence.Annika Peacock suggests that once the concept has been “introduced” it doesn’t need cited again, and in some contexts this may be sufficient.Toby Dillon suggests that the overview may omit the citations if they are discussed in the main section. (Not being particularly familiar with “policy papers” or the sort of style used therein, I can’t agree or disagree with this. Citations are not required in the “summary of argument” if an appellate-procedure rule provides that summary of argument is required.)In legal writing, though, citations are key to your being taken seriously. No judge wants to be making law up out of their butt and get reversed by an appellate court. So if you are making legal argument, you should cite every sentence that states a legal principle, even if the source or case has been cited previously in the paper (you may use “short citations” or “id.” to indicate that you’ve previously cited the item in full) and even if it is a principle you are trying to argue against the application of.†Factual citation is also important. When lawyers cite “facts”, these should generally be cited to the record of the case (repeating the citations isn’t always required), but in other contexts, you can cite sources as they are found.Ultimately, though, I believe that Michael Sellars has the correct answer—check what the type of citation style used in your field is.Note:†Here is an excerpt from a brief I wrote some years ago to illustrate this. The citations are in bold, and are found with nearly every sentence:In order to win an award of fees under section 2503, it must be shown that the respondent engaged in the conduct “in commencing the action or [in raising defenses]” (id., clause 9; Norris v. Commw., 634 A.2d 673, 676 (Pa.Commw. 1993)) during the pendency of the litigation; “[c]onduct prior to or following the pendency of the action cannot form a basis for an award of counsel fees.” Westmoreland Co. Indus. Development Auth. v. Allegheny Co. Bd. of Property Assessment, 723 A.2d 1084, 1086 (Pa.Commw. 1999); White v. Redevelopment Auth. of McKeesport, 451 A.2d 17 (Pa.Commw. 1982); Sternlicht v. Sternlicht, 822 A.2d 732, 741-2, ¶ 30 (Pa.Super. 2003); Cher-Rob, Inc. v. Art Monument Co., 594 A.2d 362, 364 (Pa.Super. 1991). The limitations found in § 2503 (‘during the pendency of’, ‘in commencing the matter’) will be strictly construed. Cher-Rob, supra. Not all fees incurred during the pendency of an action will be recoverable, even if there were offensive conduct. In Mellon Bank v. Druzisky, 800 A.2d 955 (Pa.Super. 2002) although the Superior Court affirmed an award of fees on the general ground that defendants should have known plaintiff had a right to relief and “obdurately” dragged out the litigation, it held that the award must be limited to the extent that the defendants’ position had legal merit when plaintiff sought relief in the wrong form: “Because the Druziskys were justified in opposing the quiet title action, the costs associated with Mellon’s prosecution of the action should not commence until the filing of the equity action.” Druzisky, 800 A.2d at 958, ¶ 7. Although Superior Court takes it for granted and discusses the issue only briefly, Druzisky can fairly be said to reflect an element of causation or connectivity to a sanction under § 2503 (7)—in other words, the party seeking the fees must show that the fees were incurred as a result of specific “vexatious” or “obdurate” conduct, and that fees incurred as a result of other conduct are not awardable. Accord the Explanatory Comment to Rule 1023.1; see also Twp. of S. Strabane v. Piecknick, 546 Pa. 551, 560, 686 A.2d 1297, 1301 (1996), requiring a specific finding. “[T]he statute sets forth an exception to the common law rule and therefore is intended to be interpreted narrowly.” Cher-Rob, supra, at 365. In a similar vein, it was also held error for the trial court to award fees for an earlier appeal when the fees had not been sought during the appeal pursuant to Pa. R.A.P. No. 2744. Druzisky, supra at ¶ 10. Put another way, only the appellate court can award fees pursuant to Appellate Rule 2744, although the trial court should figure the amount. Id. A fortiori, then, it would also be error for the trial court to award fees for responding to an appeal when the appellate court denied the request for fees under that rule, when the appeal was discontinued without an award, or when the appeal was successful. Conversely, an appellate court cannot award sanctions for misconduct in the trial court. Norris, supra at 675; Gossman v. Lower Chanceford Twp. Sup’rs, 503 Pa. 392, 396, 469 A.2d 996, 998 (1983).In order to support an award of sanctions, the vexatious or obdurate conduct must appear on the record, by testimony or otherwise. Piecknick, supra; State Farm Mut. Ins. Co. v. Allen, 544 A.2d 491, 494 (Pa.Super. 1988). “Moreover, it is the burden of the party seeking counsel fees to prove the existence of one of the statutory conditions.” Berg v. Georgetown Builders, Inc., 822 A.2d 810, 816, ¶ 19 (Pa.Super. 2003); In re Estate of Roos, 451 A.2d 255 (Pa.Super. 1982). The existence of “repeated actions”, without more, does not justify a finding of “vexatious” conduct. Old Forge Sch. Dist. v. Highmark, Inc., 592 Pa. 307, 319-20, 924 A.2d 1205, 1212-3 (2007). Sanctions under § 2503 may only be considered with respect to the proceeding at hand and not some other proceeding. Dep’t of Revenue v. Irwin, 475 A.2d 902, 906 (Pa.Commw. 1984).I won this one.

Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World Book, MP3 CD – Audiobook, MP3 Audio, Unabridgedby Jack Weatherford (Author),A (hopefully) cool book review(Please click on the images to get them full size. There are some nice ones!)Above: The Great KhanLet’s start with a question:Who would you say most influenced world history besides the great scientists, mathematicians and inventors?Alexander? Caesar? Napoleon? Aristotle? Socrates? Shakespeare? Hitler? Stalin? George Lucas?What would you think about Genghis Khan?When you consider what Genghis Khan and his Mongol army accomplished, it’s really not so crazy. They fundamentally shaped Eurasia and through that the entire known world.It is my humble opinion that Genghis Khan’s Mongols and Alexander’s Macedonians are the two greatest armies in history. They both conquered the biggest empires of their time and did it always outnumbered, always outgunned. I know the role Alexander played in spreading Hellenistic culture across Central Asia, and even though I’m sure that Alexander’s campaigns were of course very savage, I always somehow set him apart from the ‘murderous’ Mongols. Part of the West’s prejudices toward anything Asian I suppose.Above: The Mongolian steppe. It basically rolls like this all the way to Germany.But in Jack Weatherford’s book, ‘Genghis Khan and the Making if the Modern World,” he makes the bold claim that Genghis Khan was one of the great “makers of the modern world,” and then precedes to back it up with impressive scholarship.Weatherford tells that the Mongols, of course, destroyed and slaughtered everywhere they went but they also created some amazing things. They united much of Asia to Europe, creating the largest empire in history and helped technologies spread to both, ground breaking items like gunpowder, the compass, paper, paper money and something far personal for every male reading this: look down at your lap…are you wearing a tunic or trousers?Above: They conquered from Japan to Austria, from the Arctic Circle to the Middle East.The Mongols revolutionized warfare to the extent that it seemed as though a modern army, (trading in it’s AFV ‘s for ponies,) were set down in 13th century Mongolia. When you study it, it seems so incongruent, so out of time for one army to have advanced so far beyond every single other that was on the planet, it’s troubling. Weapons, tactics, military systems are all constantly evolving, learning and adapting from what is around it, but they are based on what went immediately before. The only time an army has just…appeared this way, new and unbeatable, was Alexander’s amazing Macedonian army, and he and they never lost a single battle. Genghis Khan’s Mongol army was pretty much unbeatable, too. For two hundred years the mongols, with a few small eceptioms, ruled earth’s battlefields. The Mongol army seems like it just sprang up out of the ground. It’s almost eerie.Above: Mongol families riding past the moveable “yurts”, the pre-fab Mongol “houses.”The author Jack Weatherford writes:' ...they also created the nucleus of a universal culture and world system. With the emphasis on free commerce, open communication, shared knowledge, secular politics, religious coexistence, international law, and diplomatic immunity.'These are same Mongols that conquered much of the world with sword and flame, the biggest empire the world has ever seen. The same Mongols that were so hated and feared they were considered to be literal agents of Satan, “The Devil’s Horsemen,” ‘animals’ we thought so brutal that a major genetic deficiency was named after them.The Mongols under Genghis Khan and his successors ruled Eurasia, and Vienna, Austria, to the Sea of Japan, from China to the Middle East. Like Lear, Genghis divided his empire among his sons, while investing one of them with supreme paramountship. Again like Lear, the unity could not be preserved, and the individual khanates drifted apart.Above: The largest Empire in history. It’s a stunning achievement. And so many dead.Even so, Eurasia's main contemporary centers of power have all their origins in the Mongol empire. China, which after the Tang had broken up into separate kingdoms – the Jin and the Song – was unified politically and administratively by Khubilai Khan, one of Genghis' grandchildren. China, then was able to maintain its geographic and political integrity despite the changing of dynasties.The Moghul Empire of India emerged from the Chagatai Khanate of Genghis' second son. The Abbasid Caliphate centred on Baghdad was replaced by the Ilkhanate, which eventually became the heart of Persia. The Mongols of the Golden Horde first moved north towards Novgorod in Russia, then veered sharply south and destroyed Kiev and its Viking (Rus,) civilization – (some say at the prodding of the Venetians, who schemed to achieve a monopoly of the slave trade and wanted the Mongols to literally wipe out the competition. Read Shakespeare’s ‘Merchant of Venice.’)Above: When the Mongols invaded Europe, Europeans were confident their armored knights would make short work of them. The Mongols shot their horses out from under them, and then killed the floundering, almost helpless knights at their leisure.The centre of power in the region shifted to the north, and czarist Russia eventually emerged. Eastern Europe was destroyed, but the rest of the sub-continent was spared – possibly because the loot and women was, after the riches of China and Persia, judged not to be worth the trouble. Europe stayed in Dark Age feudalism and continued its trajectory as a bunch of warring micro-states vying among each other for hegemony in the region – an issue settled only at the end of WW II, again imho.Above: The Mongols may have been nomads but they were definitely not barbarians.The Mongols' was the first modern army. It was built on a rational structure (based, like the Roman legion, on units in the multiple of tens) and promotion was strictly on merit. Extremely disciplined and highly mobile it was an army of 100% cavary units. (despite what the movies portray, very few nations ever fought exclusively on horseback: the Mongols and the Comanche being the most famous.)The army could execute complex tactical manoeuvres in silence upon orders from centralised command. Speed and efficiency in conquest were their trademark, and the source of the fear they struck in the enemy. Horse and bow where the Mongol warriors' strength – and it the end their weakness. Forests hindered the deployment of mounted armies, in the humid heat of India the bowstrings failed, and the horses' strength waned when they couldn’tt find grazing pastures in the Syrian desert.Above: Many equestrian scholars believe the two greatest riders in history were, again, the Comanche and the Mongols.The Mongols were genius’ at finding/stealing the best technologies of their foes and utilizing that new engineering knowledge within their own army. They stole gunpowder from China and learned to alter its formula to yield an explosive force rather than “low burn” as used in rocket and fire-lances.Early guns and cannon were created. Specialised troops of trained Mongols and captured Chinese craftsmen were skilled in building complex siege machines from local materials, all most a thirteen century ‘pre-fab,’ which eliminated the need to move them over long distances. Their yurts, round ‘tee pee’ structures they slept in, were also ‘pre-fab’ and could easily be folded and carried on pack horses.Above: Mongols on the march in winter. They had many huge ox-drawn wagons to eat, repair equipment, sleep in.They became experts at sapping walls, thus making static defence impossible. Again using captured Chinese and Chinese technology, they created a dedicated medical corps for treating the wounded. The army had no supply lines as it and its horses spread across the plains for grazing and local game/crops. They created a sophisticated communication system based on melodies to ensure accurate memorisation allowed the scattered troops to regroup at short notice and to remain in touch with the distant leadership. They had many ways to communicate with the troops in the heat of battle with whistling’ arrows and multicolored lanterns that made night combat possible.Above: They seldom fought on foot but often set up ruses and ambushes.Their intelligence/reconnaissance system was amazing in it’s accuracy and scope, (one Mongol story tells of a particularly stealthy, crafty and long-ranged recon/forward-ops rider infiltrating into Europe, into Italy and down to the “toe” of Italy’s “boot,” and gazing south across the water to another “island.” What he was seeing was North Africa!)Because of these far-riding officers the Mongols knew much more about the lands and people they were about to invade than the defenders knew about the Mongols – if nothing else because the Mongols lived off the land and needed to know where good water and pastures were to be found. In addition, the Mongols developed highly sophisticated methods of psychological warfare, spreading rumours about their cruelty and destruction. This unsettled the rural populations that then fled before the advancing army, hamstringing the defence efforts and sometimes winning battles before they had begun.Above: They were always at a disadvantage in odds but their tactical and weapons superiority overwhelmed even the largest armies.They slaughtered by the millions; only in the Armageddon of WWII were there more casualties. But what seems established is that the Mongols promised justice to those who surrendered, but they swore absolute destruction to those who resisted, particularly if they wee part of the captured lands and then rebelled and thus threatened supply lines or withdrawal routes.It seemed the Mongols always kept their word. Interestingly the Mongols did not torture or mutilate – which sets them apart from the rulers and religious leaders from China to Europe who depended upon such gruesome displays to control their own people. They offered religious freedom to everyone, again not something allowed in Europe till..the end of WWII.Above: The mongols were masters of “dog fight” tactics: they would feign retreat, draw the enemy after them, letting them break up and string out their formations, then spring back on the attack and destroy them piecemeal.Weather ford covers all these topics and many, many more.Topics like: How they secured the Silk Road (which had languished under the petty Muslim rulers that squatted it), established free trade, and moved great quantities of goods in either direction. (It’s along this Mongol Silk Road that Marco Polo probably would have travelled to Khubilai's court.)Above: In military terms: Killing perfection. 400 years ahead of it’s time.How the acculumulation of plunder and it’s equitable distribution to the army led to a highly sophisticated bureaucracy that kept track of the accumulated wealth. Weatherford writes-“The rulers of the Mongol Empire displayed a persistent universalism. Because they had no system of their own to impose upon their subjects, they were willing to adopt and combine systems from everywhere. Without deep cultural preferences in these areas, The Mongols implemented pragmatic rather than ideological solutions. They searched for what worked best; and when they found it, they spread it to other countries.”Above: Firing at full gallop. Just riding at full gallop was almost impossible for most.I have been a student of the Mongols for 45 years and this is the best, most comprehensive book I’ve ever read on the Mongols. The author’s style is enjoyable, like reading an exciting story, you will fly through it while being educated.Five out of Five stars.Twelve facts about the Mongols :Riding: A mongol was trained to ride at 3. It was the MOTHER who taught the young child. The child would be tied to the horse to avoid injury if he fell. A Mongol would be trained to actually live in the saddle. They developed amazing saddles that had elevated backing formed to even allow sleeping.Above: The incredibly well-engineered Mongol saddle. You can ride, sleep, fight in it.Above: Mongolian children on the steppe today. Not much different than the 13th century. They are a beautiful people.2. First Bow: A mongol child got his first bow ate age 5 and at that age his role as a hunter began. In another 8–9 years he would be expected to join the ranks of the soldiers.Above: Very accurate reenactment from Genghis’ time.3. Rations: A Mongol was capable of surviving without food rations for days on end. Their military-provided rations were frugal to begin with – with just dried milk curd (that was mixed with water and drank as a thin-watery yogurt), cured meat (which was further tenderized by keeping it under the saddle) and ‘kumis‘ (an alcoholic beverage made from fermented mare’s milk. Yes, you read correctly. I actually got to try some, once. The key word being “once.”) But when the rations ran out, the Mongol was not loathe to try other exotic ‘dishes’ that ranged from hunted dogs, wolves to rats and even new-born foals. Marco Polo wrote that if worse came to worse the Mongol’s would make a small incision on their horses’ neck and drink the blood. This ability to move and fight without a supply train made it possible to travel at incredible speed, even rivaling modern mechanized armies of today.Above: The Mongol composite bow.4. Mongol Bow; Mongol warrior’s main weapon of choice was his compound bow (or more accurately, the ‘composite bow’), which was capable of delivering a pull of 75 kg (or 166 lbs) and had a substantial range of over 250 yards (230 m or 750 ft). Anyone familiar with archery knows how powerful their bows were. The most famous bow in history must be the English (Welsh) Longbow, a “super weapon” the English used to slaughter the armored elite of France at Crecy and Agincourt. But it was almost 6ft tall, and very tough to use if you were of short stature. The Mongol bow had the same draw strength-power but it was half as long, making it perfect for fighting on horseback. To utilize the best of either bow you had to literally have the arm and upper-back strength of Arnold Schwarzenegger or The Rock, but these bandy-legged guys were made of tempered steel.Above: Typical Mongol equipment and weapons.5. Mongol Arrows; The Mongols used various arrowheads, usually made of iron, steel, horn, or bone. Each soldier carried a file of some sort to sharpen the edges of their arrows. Armor penetration was done with a tapered steel arrowhead or a steel spike arrowhead. Usually, a broad-headed arrow would disperse the force along the edges of the arrowhead. This was useful when battling an unarmed target.Not only were the arrowheads different, but the functions of the arrows were wide ranging. Arrows were fashioned for purposes from armor piercing to signal arrows. Signal arrows are very interesting. Sometimes they would be whistling arrows. Always useful when signaling a military action from a distance.Above: The Mongol bow and arrow.Arrows tended to be a little over 2 feet in length and were usually larger than what was commonly used in Europe. The preferred tree for producing arrows was willow, though they used any trees available. They also utilized river reeds, when available, as shafts. Historian Timothy May notes that Mongol arrows were usually fletched in an asymmetrical fashion. He compares the flight path of an arrow to a bullet from a gun. The arrow would rotate slightly as it flew, just as a bullet rotates, and the impact would penetrate deeper into the target.Each Mongol archer carried 60 arrows with them. Usually many extra quivers of arrows were attached to the soldier's remounts. Each Mongol warrior had with him at least 4-6 remounts. Mongols used a ring grip and held the bow as we do in our left hand, but they set the arrow to the right of the bow’s trunk.Above: Image from China. The Chinese learned the hard way about the Mongols.6. They were almost always outnumbered in their battles. There has always been the idea of Mongol “Hoards” of never-ending riders, attacking without mercy. Well, they did attack without mercy, but they moved so much faster than their enemies could even conceive they fooled their foes into believing there were more armies than there actually were. They would also divide and hit from multiple sides, and sometimes would tie straw dummies behind their horses to make it appear their numbers were greater than they were.Above: A what if? What if the Great Khan’s son, (now himself the Great Khan,) hadn’t suddenly died while the Mongol army was literally banging at the gates of Vienna, forcing the Mongols by law to return home to Mongolia to elect a new Khan? Would the Mongols have invaded further into Europe? They had just annihilated the best of Eastern European’s armies/knights and now it seemed Europe lay helpless in front of them. Germany, France, England, Spain, Italy all were warring amongst themselves and were simply unable or willing to unite against this common foe. There was the problem of leaving the plains of Poland and going up into the heavily forested hills of Germany and France and dealing with stone towers and a few stone castles. What would have happened if the Mongols would have conquered Western Europe?Above: The “business end.”7. They had no word for ‘soldier.’ Linguists have been unable to discern a single word designating their fighters. The reason why was there was no distinction within their culture, no ‘soldiers’ and no ‘civilians.’ Everyone was a fighter, even the women and children.8. Every officer was responsible for his men’s readiness and equipment, and was required to live with his men, stand watch with them, never order them to do anything he wouldn’t do.9. They wore silk shirts. Silk is known to have fibers that can potentially cushion the impact of an arrow. More importantly, it was a common medical knowledge that a barbed arrow did more damage went pulled out from the skin, rather than when penetrating the skin during entry. The silk fibers came in handy during such injurious scenarios, because they twisted along the pierced arrow point – which made the act of pulling out the arrow much safer and clean. They wore them as undershirts and since they seldom bathed even with the advantage/protection of the silk, the arrow would still be forcing a filthy shirt into the wound.Above: Never without bow and arrows.10. They could fight at night and during the winter. Most soldiers for many superstitious, (but often practical) reasons feared the darkness and spent their nights sleeping/crouching around campfires. The Mongols had no such fears, as they WERE the darkness, and they used that ability to great effect ambushing foes in the darkness. They could fight in the winter, sometimes preferring it as they could use the frozen rivers as bridges or even highways. They would take turns riding their mounts and pulling their remounts, usually 4–6 horses per rider, through the snow drifts, clearing a path for the army following.Above: Mongols moving through the snow.11. The Mongol paid their leaders, no the other way around. Booty was the pay for these soldiers and a certain amount was approved of. If there was more than they passed it up the ladder and so on. It actually worked out the the average Mongol soldier actually need up making a lot more ‘Money’ than other armies. The Mongol military and political system was based on merit so individual achievement like initiative and courage was rewarded with additional treasure, horses, access to grazing land, women, slaves.Above: The Mongols horses were smaller than the big plow horses the European armored knights rode. The were not as fast as the Arabian stallions the Muslim knights rode. But they were strong and quick and could trot for mile after mile after mile, day after day after day.12. For many of their foes, especially the Europeans, the Mongols were looked at as genuinely ‘demonic,’ ‘the Devil’s Horsemen.’ The Mongols were also known as ‘Tartars’ to the Europeans – a term which was most probably derived from the word ‘tātār’, which meant ‘mounted messenger’ in both Turkish and Persian language traditions. However, the inclusion of the extra ‘r’ in the European case was surely an intentional ploy in a bid to invoke the ominous effect of ‘Tartarus’, the Greek equivalent of hell. Actual evidence of such a word play comes from a letter send to St Louis of Frances in 1270 AD, which says –“In the present danger of the Tartars either we shall push them back into the Tartarus whence they come, or they will bring us all into heaven.”Thanks for reading. -PeteAbove: These physically small people from a small country in the middle of “nowhere,” with a small population ended up affecting the entire world like no other army ever did or has, including Alexander, including Rome, including the British, American, Nazi or Soviet armies. Almost beyond belief.

Carrie Fisher delivered a cow tongue inside a Tiffany box to a predatory producer who had assaulted her friend. She said, "The next delivery will be something of yours in a much smaller box!Full on First Godfather movie scene with an animal substitution.My favorite thing about Carrie Fisher is that she had a dog named Gary Fisher.Don CarrieoneI really want her to be not dead.She was a second generation Hollywood A lister.

Maybe a copy of his house key - that’d be scary.A true hero <3She may have played Princess Leia but Carrie Fisher was a Queen.I find this story to be unlikely.She's threatening to cut off his dick and mail it back to him? That doesn't seem very well thought out.It's my dick in a box.This is shit from top to bottom.What does a butcher offcut prove? If she had cut the tongue from a live cow or something then you might go "oh shit, she's psycho, better back off" but she didn't... She may as well have sent him a steak.If you're assaulted call the police.The whole thing reeks of: And the name of that cow tongue? Albert Einstein.it's all such roleplay-ish nonsense. How about help your friend by filing a detailed report with the police or accompanying her when she's alone in a room with producers instead of pretending to be a real tough badass who don't take no funny bidnizz.67k upvotes. GJ reddit.so she was going to cut his dick off and then mail it to him? that makes no sense. he already knows his dick got cut off.You go girlAny proof? Sounds like BS to be honestCould just report him to the police insteadLol that happened.Chaotic goodThis is really cringeyA Carrie Fisher and "powerful men are perverts" circle jerk in one post? Straight to the top we go!I'm starting to think Reddit is full of bots. Either that or 75% of the people here are mindless sheep that repeatedly circle jerk the same topics over and over.I heard this before, only it was Joan Rivers in that version.I don't believe it.Going to the police might have been the more intelligent thing to do.So obviously fake it hurts.Yeah I also heard carrie fisher once molested a kid.Gee, we can all make up stories after she's gone and no one to tell if its true or notmuh feminist heroJesus Christ I miss Carrie.riamverybadassrthathappenedI forgot she died..Seems I learn this at least once a weekSo she knew is what you’re telling meGangsta.Wow.

What to go, princess.you know what he did with the tounge gift.And then after she delivered the cliché zinger, Carrie did a triple backflip and gave everyone $100% bills. Haven't you heard?Don't f*** with bipolar princessesI like that the impression she gave us all of her was exactly who she was.I don't think I can listen to "Dick in a Box" the same way ever again.And then she flew awayThats a badass bitch that one should not f*** with.The Godmother.She never ceases to amaze me. Carrie Fisher will always be my hero.Here comes the general, rise up!Oh Carrie, My Carrie. The world sucks without you.Carrie is a badass boss queen.honestly read the headline and looked in the comments for the meaning of the expression "to deliver a cow tongue inside a Tiffany box".then suddenly, OH!..Carrie Fisher was (and still is) the best Space Mom we could’ve had. ❤️Goddammit this woman was a national treasure.Man, now I want a cow tongue, that's some good eating right thereCarrie Fisher, the god damn savage.I just feel bad for the poor Cow.Yah that's still f***ed up - teaching someone a lesson can be done without threatening to chop them up..Isn't that a pretty serious threat of violence? The double standards are strong with reddit.People here realize that this isn't true, right? The people in this article are both acquaintances of a dead woman. They could literally say "Carrie was actually a man with a huge penis" and it would be just as true as what's in this article.Ah, right. Time to apply some plaster to Carrie Fisher's memory after she unceremoniously OD'd on coke peddling a book she didn't even bother to hire a good ghostwriter for. God knows it's not her acting chops that can carry the load, or her silence in the face of evidently systematic predatory practices in Hollywood.But she totally did this. Totally. Her friend said so and why would she lie about this to her friend--why would her friend lie about it on some C-list radio show? There's no reason not to believe.LegendNo matter what I achieve in life I will never reach the Carrie Fisher level of badass.Isn't it funny that if a man did this it would be considered a threat and any number of crimes, but when a woman does it, it's empowering?This would be a different story if genders were reversed.Would've probably have been better to report it to the police and have him investigatedconvicted.I commend her but she was pill popping, alcoholic, drug addicted loser. The toxicology review at the autopsy found evidence of cocaine, methadone, MDMA (better known as ecstasy), alcohol and opiates when she was rushed to Ronald Reagan UCLA Hospital on Dec. 23, a toxicology report showed. Ergo, she committed a slow, long suicide taking over 35 years.Did the cops not allow her to file a complaint?Carrie Fisher was a slut that slept her way into show business and therefore helped set the expectations for women entering after her. She was definitely part of the problem whether she liked it or not.That's also not okay lol. I mean I hate predatory producers, but that is a bit too much.Fake and gayIs this true or is it just because ppl love star wars and Carrie Fisherrip to our princessOh shit we got a badass over hereFisher was herself assaulted by the crew of the original Star Wars film. Had it not been for Harrison Ford things could have been worse.This woman was a pure treasure and we did not value her enough while we had her with us.Why is small dick shaming okay in modern society?Edit: seriously? What’s with the downvotes? I see stuff all the time on the front page making fun of dick sized or if someone is a predator or creepy who happens to not be big, they get made fun of for their dick size. Like they aren’t just shitty for assaulting and harassing women, but they aren’t well endowed, something that is completely out of men’s control.Looks like the men's rights and incel crowd showed up. Stay classy reddit and stop whining every time some tells you that you hate women. You prove it on posts like this.Wasn’t this on the front page a few different times in the last six weeks, but the predator was Weinstein and the friend was her daughter...is that why she was never in any movies?Cocaine's a hell of a drugThat's gangstaCan we just stop caring about her, please?! She was a poor to mid range actor who skidded through life being known for one hit series whose character added only marginally to the pantheon of Sci-Fi story telling. By all accounts she was a horrible wife, mother, friend, and person. Let’s all just stop talking about her!Calling BS especially since it's form the joke that is BBC.Or she could contact the police. But I guess a cow tung is OK too.Disney really going all out with their marketing campaigns on Reddit.Instantaneous downvote signals the confirmation, lmao.If a man did this, it would be treated as a death threat and everyone would be up in arms for him to go to prison.EqualityFake and gay... then she did an 8-ball and sucked off a coworker in a trailer.Sexual misconduct only exists when there is money and litigation makes sense. If no money, its just flirting, and sex with coworkers. Funny how that works.This whole 'movement' is so tired and overhyped.Stop the circle jerc.There is another...edgy10Instead of telling like.. the police?Surfing Reddit is almost like having a friend with a traumatic brain injury. You get to hear the same stories over and over and over again.After she snorted coke off a hard cock?Or before?That's some mafia stuff right there.As a Mexican I am deeply offended, that cows tounge could have been made to good use and turned into tacos smhThat’s assault, too.Who was the unfortunate man who enabled her bi-polar fantasies?Everyone’s saying how badass Carrie Fisher is and all I can think of is a farmer going up to one of his cows in the morning and realizing it’s tongue is gone.Every single f***ing thing I learn about her makes me more sad she’s gone.It's cool Carrie. You were morally in the high ground being a weaker less harmful woman being. The dick death threat was the right choice. sBoy what a threat. Because we all know she’s so capable of doin something like that. Would have meant more if she made an actualbetter threatA sociopath wouldn't care if that's as far as the threat goes. I applaud Carrie Fisher, but the producer should be named, if not charged and taken to court, otherwise, it may have produced nothing more than a little shock or laugh in him."TIL"This was all over the news in October. Do you live under a rock?Such Hollywood<#friendgoals2017Carrie Fisher's death is the first celebrity death that actually had an impact on me. I really don't want to accept that she is dead.My favorite thing about Carrie Fisher is that she had a dog named Gary FisherReddit, I love you, but sometimes you really piss me off. Here is a story about something incredible Carry Fisher did, but the top comment is about her dog's name. Ugh.Literally everything I learn about Carrie Fosher makes me love her even more. What a woman. What. An. Icon.Carrie is savage af.she never ceased to be amazingSeriousness aside, Cow tongue is delicious. A side of A-1 suace, forget about it.RIP Carrie you where a straight savage.So how come they won't say the producer's name? Or give a little context so an interested reader can figure it out. Do you hate sexual predators and want them gone or don't you? Shit or get off the pot.Remarkable. I didn't quite enjoy her acting and characters, but this right here is some bold Godfather i-will-f***-you-up badassery. Kudos to her. Women should take notice of her approach instead of hiding out like little bitches and #metoo'ing from the safety of decades apart timeframes and social networks.Top 10 things that never happenedI would expect nothing less from a broken down junkie.She was standing next to me at a crosswalk in midtown one day after I left work. She looked so at peace, I pretended not to notice who she was and just let her be. She died soon after.Metal.Penis. She means the penis.Some say still to this day, her force ghost is still being sassy at the producerMy X had a cat that had a stroke and could only walk in circles going left. She couldn't go backwards either. So to get anywhere she would turn and turn and turn but going forwards. One day she never came back. About two weeks later they found her behind the shed. Poor thing couldn't back up out of the gap she was in and died right there in the rain, alone and hungry.why didn't she report the assaulter to the authorities instead of potentially putting herself in danger with this edgy stunt?Sorry but who verifies this news is true? there is no way this sort of thing can be verified as the main character is dead, and neither the unnamed producer is going to own up to this incident.. i find it hard to believe that some people suddenly remember incidences where involved people are dead not talking about it..That totally happened. Go girl powerShe's strong and independent and empowered and she doesn't take shit from men and she's not shackled by the chains of the patriarchy.Saw Star Wars today. I f***ing love Carrie Fisher.I support the message Carrie was putting forth but I would have totally thrown that shit in a crock pot and made tacos. Lengua is so f***ing goodSounds like the delusional lies of a cocaine addicted self-righteous narcissist. I like Star Wars too but do we need to turn her into a hero? She was a drug addict who struggled to find work in Hollywood due to her substance abuse issues, and her lack of acting talent. One role in her entire life, not exactly a successful Hollywood career.All Hail General OrganaThat's nice and all but calling the cops would have been just finerthathappenedName the producerCarrie Fisher was (and still is) the best Space Mom we could’ve had. ❤️So she says...Ain’t you ever seen a princess be a bad bitchShame someone for being a rapist, not their dick size.Just saw TLJ last night. It really doesn’t feel like Carrie is gone, but she is. Has been for about a year now. You truly don’t realize what you have until it’s gone...RIP Carrie, you were an inspiration to all.Reading that, I couldn't help but think, "Isn't it a little late for warnings? Seems like an investigation should've been in order at that point."That's savage!That didn’t happen:BullshitMay the Force be with you and ur badasseryThis is so damn satisfying.
