Ana joins Cenk for SCS. NYPD tackled a Black man while he talked on the phone on the street. After the officer without a uniform or badge assaulted the man, they found out that it was former tennis star James Blake. NYPD apologized to Blake, which illustrates that they wouldn’t care about it if they randomly attacked an unknown Black person. The Daily Beast uncovered a study that showed a phenomenon within the gay dating community that openly and harshly discriminates certain races in their dating profiles. The question of whether or not sexual racism is a thing was asked by another study. Cenk doesn’t think we can judge people’s racial preferences when it comes to sex and dating.

Cenk hosting today. A Christian gun manufacturer has developed a new Muslim killing AR-15 called The Crusader. It has a Bible scripture etched onto each one that vows to kill its enemies. Video of the developer talking about the gun and firing it. A Muslim flight attendant is complaining that she has been suspended for not serving alcohol to passengers due to her religious beliefs.

Donald Trump is answering for his military expertise by touting his time at a military school he was sent to as an adolescent after assaulting his music teacher. Videos of Trump bashing McCain for being captured in Vietnam and telling Hugh Hewitt that he will be so good at “the military.”

Ana joins Cenk for SCS. Update on the man with the world’s largest penis. A writer in London posted a viral rant about the situation of immigration and acceptance of refugees. His rant was filled with sarcasm about people speaking English and allowing Western countries’ citizens to travel wherever they’d like. Drivers in China are known for killing pedestrians they’ve accidentally hit. After hitting someone, they respond by continuing to run over the person so that their punishment is less harsh. If the person is only injured, the driver will have to pay for their injuries and future issues for the rest of their lives. If the person is dead, they only have to pay for burial fees and spend very little time in jail. Talk about the laws incentives and disincentives.

Cenk and John hosting. A new poll has occurred that some supporters believe Obama is a Christian and/or Muslim. Some believe Obama was born in the US and others believe Ted Cruz was born in Canada.

Cenk and Ana hosting. Kim Davis, the KY county clerk believes in traditional marriages, yet she has been divorced several times. She refuses to marry same sex couples. A bunch of football players were baptized before practice. The problem was that it happened on public school grounds, therefore people are furious. People feel they violated the Constitution.
