You make no effort to contribute anything of substance or understand someone’s point of view - it’s just “liberals suck”. Frankly I don’t even know why you’re here except to troll. Well, he was suspended for trolling. Then when I pointed this out, he denied he was trolling by using the reasoning that he didn’t agree with the suspension. When I pointed out that this was idiotic, he added me to the growing list of people who he ignores. ---

On the upside, any time those cops look at a defendant sideways, they will inevitably get a fresh lesson in why they shouldn’t allow their enthusiasm for police brutality to show up on YouTube. Should make their court appearances more interesting. ---

Of does commit abuse (which covers a wide range of behaviors) automatically parse as Go Commit Brutality? If you’re going to go down the path of accusation, you better make sure your hands are clean. ---

So the president is using an ethnic slur that should offend all Irish people similar to calling him an oompa loompa. He is advocating brutality against people who are arrested further empowering the gangs that steal and kill to do more damage against us. What a tool. ---

> [@SteveG1](#): > > I am no mod, but it I were, that fuck would be gone forever. The mods, Colibri just a few posts above, pretty much know he’s a trolling asshole. I think they like to keep him around to remind him just how big an ignorant asshole he really is. Why does Clot stick around knowing how much he’s disliked?.. Because he likes the abuse, and deep down inside he knows he deserves it. ---
