  1. yeah I'm sure it's more like protesting the CAD, most people who do it tend to be wealthy
  2. Flagg is good, but I thought he would be better
  3. This is how it was supposed to've been done.
  4. Hey when Hannity comes a-callin' what kind of person turns that down?
  5. Ever watch that movie Bernie? Wouldn't shock me that the most popular dude in town, who has helped hundreds of people and would give you the shirt off his back, could also be capable of a shady dealing or two. Humans are multifaceted.
  6. Did we give weapons to these guys? This is such a poor argument dude
  7. At a certain point you are either deliberately ignoring the glaring differences or fundamentally incapable of understanding. But in either case, you've demonstrated that further engagement will not help you, and the only reason anyone should respond is if they're in a public forum and you need to be made an example of for the onlookers who, unlike you, aren't deliberately ignoring or incapable of understanding how "both things" are not meaningfully comparable. Thing One: Releasing people who have served their sentences or have posted bail is not an abuse of state power. The policy "failure" is one that could only be "fixed" by changing the rules of "releasing" people who have committed less serious crimes so that the rules operate under the assumption that undocumented people are predisposed to commit a "bigger crime" that can only be prevented by keeping them in jail. They ignore the thousands of immigrants who aren't predisposed to commit crimes either because they're racist or because they are profoundly misinformed. Thing Two: A clear and unconstitutional abuse of state power. The policy failure here is obvious, as are the blatant racism and the grotesque historical parallels to ethnic cleansing projects. These abuses are the obvious consequences of appeasing the idiots who "scream about" Thing One by indulging the assumption that undocumented people are predisposed to commit crimes. The thousands of peaceful immigrants (and non-immigrants that aren't white) who are being rounded up are being collectively punished for crimes that a tiny fraction of immigrants committed. Moral of the Story Anyone who juxtaposes these "things" and says "both are wrong" looks like a fool. Learn the difference between an ethnic cleansing project beginning with widespread abuses of state power and anomalous crimes being signal boosted by racist media figures. Be on the right side of history.
  8. He saw Kerr County yesterday but by the next day Rosie O'Donnell is on his mind
  9. Punative?
  10. Way to misquote me.
  11. I didn't realize our Congresscritters from both sides of the aisle were doing photo ops with Sudanese leadership and sending billions of my fucking money to them so that they can bomb hospitals and set up a firing squad for starving people looking for food
  12. I wish this was a FAFO but in this timeline there's no way any of those assholes actually suffered what their ignorance inflicted on others.
  13. He screeches just like Frankie the Meteorologist but has absolutely none of the likeability.
  14. I'll have to watch it later
  15. Not officially but behind the scenes they were already lobbying very hard to get their guy in Trump's sphere of influence for the final stretch of the campaign. It was never, ever going to be a brown person or a woman.
