    It's not right. And I don't think they have the right.

    But it's what they do.

    And everyone, in 2024, knows it. The reputation for cops as thugs, bullies, etc. with little to no accountability. It is known.

    I'm reminded of that funny TikTok guy who works retails when the customers whine about the reality versus the theory crafted on the internet:

    Cops aren't supposed to act that way. But what do our eyes say?

    My eyes say you are a moron

    The cops are being thugs but she got into the middle of their arrest. It's doubtful that they knew she was a professor and I'm uncertain how her job title would impact their orders.

    You think cops making an arrest have the right to slam you to the ground and cuff you for asking them a question?

    To what extent is UT getting squeezed by state politics in ways that make his decision making authority futile? 

    If that is what happened he should have offered his resignation when given the order to call in troops, and if resignation was accepted he should have immediately released a statement announcing riot police have been ordered to campus by [insert whichever assholes gave the order], decrying that decision, and stating he was resigning effective immediately in protest

    I don't think a legislative body largely made up of maga morons is going to prioritize this in any way. 

    That’s what I am getting at. Can only the majority party initiate an investigation

    I don't agree with his decisions on the face of it. I'm simply saying it was a tough spot under current political dynamics not the least of which is the likely intense pressure from the office of the governor and as someone very interested in the truth, I don't know the whole story regarding how the shitty decision was made.  that's all.

    No doubt it was a tough spot to be in. He failed miserably in his handling of it. He should resign

    Don’t ask if he can order the assassination of a political rival. Ask if he can order the assassination of a Supreme Court justice. 

    Wouldn’t even need to assassinate any. If they rule for any type of broad immunity for presidential actions Biden should immediately lock up the 3 Trump SC appointees plus Thomas and declare the court open for business

    right.  It stated he called them because they affirmatively stated they wanted to do the same takeover encampent bullshit they did at Columbia

    You really think the leaders of that group called Hartzell told him they were planning to commit felonies? You’re not dumb. Use your brain

    McCarthy is the only QB in this class that I don’t think will be utter dogshit

  9. They wanted to gather on the South Mall and march down to the capital. Some were herded down onto speedway and arrested for blocking a roadway lol. Fucking speedway. And others were forced off the grass in front of the six pack onto the sidewalks and then, because they were boxed in by cops and cordoned off from the grass, some of those were charged with blocking the sidewalk. Fucking bullshit

    This legitimately brand new poster sure studied up on the rules before joining this site for what was surely the first time!

    It’s GRU

    Fascism is a political ideology, ergo a discussion/accusation of it is CR. Literally. Take it somewhere else. 

    No one has ever said this forum is news without commentary. You cannot explain Abbott’s actions yesterday without discussing the motivations behind them. I mean I guess if you are a thinned skinned titty baby with a low IQ you could try. Fascism is very germaine to what is going on at a place many or most of us hold close to sacred. That is not political

     

    eta you smell like a sock. If I head over to 6th street am I going to find any crypto posts from you?
