  1. We're arguing clinical depression makes him unfit to serve? WTF. Someone shoulda told this guy:
  2. She does realize that she'd be living in the "blue" country in the divorce, right? No, no she doesn't.
  3. The powers that be are treating trump like a white collar criminal and not like someone who committed a violent crime and is a danger to society every minute he remains free. That's the disconnect.
  4. I guess I'm skeptical that this universally White group is going to lead to positive social change at a college that didn't admit it's first Black student until 1967.
  5. Were southern based White churches involved in the Civil Rights movement, or more likely to be segregationist? Weren't most of the churches involved in the Civil Rights movement, at least in places like small town Kentucky Black churches?
  6. Went 2 plus years without getting it. Now have it for the second time in about 6 months. Fuck. Managed to do a bunch of overseas trips without getting it, but apparently a long weekend at an Airbnb in the middle of nowhere was a bridge too far late last week. Mostly just really, really tired.

    LBGTQ

    That asshole. I refuse to listen to his voice, so hopefully this is an accurate summary of the "speech" he posted on his hell site yesterday.
  9. I'm probably missing something. But why would trump need to consent to use of the tapes? Woodward taped him on equipment he, or S & S owned, in connection with an interview trump agreed to. I don't think trump got a share of the profits from Woodward's book... I don't see why Woodward and Simon & Schuster couldn't do whatever the hell they wanted with the tapes.
  10. Jesus, there was finally one of these bad enough, or the officers Black enough, that my local PD actually issued a statement condemning them. Signed up for general town alerts (eg. no trash pickup tomorrow), and this actually showed up in my inbox. I'm not sure how I feel about it. They're saying the right things now, but I doubt they're actually doing them. And they sure as fuck didn't say anything about George Floyd, Breona Taylor, or any of the other police murders.
  11. You seem to have appointed yourself as their defense attorney. I'm not sure why you would want to voluntarily take on that assignment. To the extent this is "the same thing they would do in court, on both sides." I call bs. Whether or not the victim was driving erratically is completely irrelevant to them murdering him. It's like the defense attorneys back in the day, digging into a rape victim's sexual history to try and justify their client being a rapist. Which i guess means that given America and Blue Lives Matter this will all come into play. I can't fathom purposefully taking that position on a message board in my free time though. But you do you.
  12. I'm wondering how many other times these cops did this. They acted with impunity, because they thought there would be no consequences. Probably because there haven't been consequences for decades upon decades.
  13. You know if we're going all in on thunderdome, maybe the Memphis cops can pull him over on trumped up reckless driving allegations.
  14. None of this fucking matters. You're spending a ridiculous amount of time analyzing the intricacies of the video to try and understand the murders' side of things. But you're also moving goalposts in an attempt to defend the indefensible. I never suggested that when he was pulled over he didn't know they were police. You said he was driving 80 mph and driving erratically. I responded that that might be a logical fucking reaction to being aggressively followed at night in an unmarked car. I said nothing about the actual stop at the light. I'm also not sure why you're giving all this credibility to the self-serving statements of people you also saw brutally murdering a man.
  15. I don't give a fuck how badly he was driving, it doesn't make any fucking difference. He's still a human being. The cops don't get to summarily execute speeders. And to the extent it matters, and it doesn't, evading an unmarked car chasing after him at night seems like a normal reaction. Who the fuck stops for an unmarked car chasing after you at 10 pm? And he would have been right. There were murderous psychopaths in the car.
  16. Given that the people he tried to run away from brutally murdered him a few minutes later, apparently for shits and giggles, I’d say his first instinct was spot on. I don’t care why he was pulled over. He didn’t deserve that and the psychopaths who pulled him over deserve to rot in prison for the rest of their days.
  17. Hell, the Environmental Equity Work Group of the EPA was established by that noted libtard George HW Bush in 1990. And then established the Office of Environmental Justice in 1992. Obviously this is all a far left fabrication from 30 years into the future.
  18. Well, if your point of reference is the 2023 American "right wing" you're probably correct. When the mainstream figures of the "right" are Elise Stefanik, Gym Jordan, MTG, Dotard, and Tucker, then everything to the left of that is a "left wing circle jerk."
  19. They've been going around defunding libraries, purportedly for loaning books they don't approve of. And laws interfering with elementary school teachers' ability to teach. Why do you think they'll stop there?
  20. I can't remember that trump quote anymore with specifics. But in 2015ish he said something to the effect that when there's riots, everything's burning, and chaos, then he can take control. That's what this is about. Gaetz and Boebert aren't smart enough to think this through. But their Russian handlers are.
  21. Sure. And if politicians hadn't enacted laws outlawing abortion and creating crimes for women and their health care providers, the SCOTUS ruling wouldn't matter worth a damn.
  22. That's what everyone said about overturning Roe v. Wade.
  23. Can't wait till we have a generation of physicians who haven't studied women's health, gender dysphoria, evolution, vaccines, and germ theory.
