No, they just got caught up in the moment and murdered a police officer! Boys will be boys! And who doesn’t carry around a handful of cuff ties at all times? I know _I_ often just randomly call for the outright murder of public officials! And who knows how all those pipe bombs got there? Not me! Nothing to see here!

The utter moral bankruptcy required to describe a planned domestic terrorist attack on the Capitol, Congress, the Vice President and the results of a democratic election, incited by the President and assorted cronies and family, as “people caught up in the moment” is indeed breathtaking.

All this was brought to you by the “law and order” party - believers in “personal accountability”.

But they are. If someone has to be held accountable, it’s another person.

My wife has lived there 50 years and agrees that people she knows tend to use English commands to their dogs. Philipinos who have been to school are all fairly fluent in English, so the reason may be that so much dog-related lore has been passed down through English media.

Can’t even spell “Filipino” right.

I’ve lost track of all the places where he claimed to be living. Should be able to correctly spell by now, then.

Has he ever posted anything of use? Every single piece of “advice” I have ever read from him has been exactly what you _shouldn’t_ do.

I have only replied twice to comments from jtur, the first was to tell him that I never reply to posts by a poster whose name includes the number he displays, the second I changed the number and put \*\* in its place. I guess that in the second case he will not be notified, but I couldn’t care less. What I wonder now is whether this name correction could be interpreted as jerkish behaviour on my side.

He’s now defending and minimizing the torture, abuse and killing of First Canadian children by the government and their Church agents.

Living up to the 88 in his user name.

Jesus. He’s using the “just following orders” excuse. Commenting on a subject he is obviously totally ignorant about. If not a troll, then certainly an asshole.

His residential school comments rank among some of the most infuriatingly outrageous shit I’ve read in the five years I’ve been here.

Here you go. He just doubled down in it, too, saying “Two unmarked graves per year is genocide?”

In his attempt to defend the use of “boarding school”, he somehow equated boarding _schools_ with [maternity _boarding houses_](https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/232631486.pdf). (PDF)
