PARIS, March 1 A major translation website was lashed today for offering up anti-Semitic and racist explanations of words.
Users who typed nicer into Reverso looking for a French equivalent were offered the example: Hitler was a lot nicer to the Jews than they deserved.
A search of much nicer produced the result Dachau was much nicer than Auschwitz.
The French-based service used by more than 45 million people a month threw up equally hateful results for the word Jew.
There are too many Jews here, Here is the ultimate example of how the Jews control America and This is why the Jews are so dangerous it offered as examples of how the word is used.

This doesnt happen by accident. Someone programmed the site to work this way
Attacked and powerless, Venezuela soldiers choose desertion
Source: AP
CUCUTA, Colombia (AP) The simple house on a street ridden with potholes in this town on Colombias restive border with Venezuela has become a refuge for the newly homeless: 40 Venezuelan soldiers who abandoned their posts and ran for their lives.
The young National Guard troops sleep on thin mats on the floor. In one room, several flak jackets rest along a wall. On a balcony, boots that got wet crossing the muddy Tachira River are set out to dry.
I was tired of people seeing me as just one more of them, Sgt. Jorge Torres said, referring to President Nicolas Maduros socialist government. Im not.
A high-stakes plan by the Venezuelan opposition to bring humanitarian aid into the country floundered Saturday when troops loyal to Maduro refused to let the trucks carrying food and medical supplies cross, but it did set off a wave of military defections unlike any seen yet amid the countrys mounting crisis. Over 320 mostly low-ranking soldiers fled in a span of four days, Colombian immigration officials said Tuesday.

Anti-Semitic Attacks Fuel Continuing Rise in Hate Crimes in New York
Source: NYT
One video showed a 51-year-old Jewish man being beaten to the ground by three young men, who seemed to select him at random. Another showed an Orthodox Jewish man being chased across the street by a man wielding a tree branch. A third showed an Orthodox Jewish man hanging on to a fence as an assailant jumped and choked him.
The three incidents, all of which took place in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, in the past year, have raised alarms in the neighborhood and in the citys large Orthodox Jewish community as a whole. Hate crimes are up citywide, but in Crown Heights, they have taken a particularly violent turn.
There were 55 hate crimes reported in New York City this year as of Feb. 17, an increase of 72 percent over the same period last year, the police said. Anti-Semitic crimes made up almost two-thirds of that, for a total of 36 crimes reported so far this year, compared with 21 last year.
The steep rise comes after a year when hate crimes were already increasing. Anti-Semitic crimes in 2018 were up 22 percent compared with 2017.

I will never understand this fear of Jews, who do nothing to anyone. They dont demand laws be changed for them. They'll even volunteer to work for people on Christian holidays. Ridiculous. Worse in Europe by far, but this is still ridiculous.
Ignorant assed people.

Two unnamed children are shown saluting the flag in a Facebook post made by The Roseboro Fire Department. The departments chief said the boys were also reciting the pledge of allegiance.
It happened as the fire stations Champlain was raising the flag to full staff.
*What a nice story for us*
My example of how broken the medical system is.
I need to get some surgery done. Its my sinuses; remove polyps, open he cavities better, etc. Since I have sleep apnea, my surgeon said we have to do it in the hospital instead of their surgical center.
So my surgeon is giving me a discount since I have no insurance & do self pay. His bill started at 9400. With the discount, I'll pay 3340. The Anesthesiologist will bill me a bit under 2k.
So I go to the hospital for their check in. They tell me that their "facilities charge" is 41000. But they'll give me a 70% "discount" bringing it down to 12000. I asked what does that cover? They still haven't provided me with a breakdown.
So the man doing the work charges 3340, anesthesiologist 2000. These are the 2 guys who are doing the major work. Its outpatient. They told me that the procedure takes about an hour.
And the hospital wants 4x what the SURGEON wants. For what?
And is there any way that anyone knows to get this ridiculous number reduced to something reasonable?

Virginia Governor Ralph Northam now denies appearing in a racist photograph that he on Friday apologized for, and claims he can prove it wasn't him.
The 59-year-old from Nassawadox has done a complete about face after apologizing for being in a picture of people wearing a Ku Klux Klan robe and blackface, Portsmouth Democrat Senator Louise Lucas learned during a private conversation.
An insider said Northam was willing to use facial recognition technology to prove he doesn't appear in the offending picture.
The Democratic party tweeted Saturday morning: 'We made the decision to let Governor Northam do the correct thing and resign this morning - we have gotten word he will not do so this morning.
