And he tries to blame it on his diabetes. What a dick!!!
Well Cruz would have blamed it on his daughters, so progress.
Can you imagine the carnage he could have wrought if he had asthma ?
Can’t wait to hear the outrage about how this poor announcer was “cancelled” just because he has diabetes.
Fucking racist dickwad.
None because he would be too focused on breathing to say anything?
That certainly explains why Wilford Brimley became a Grand Dragon of the KKK.
I have been a Type 1 Diabetic for 33 years. I have had numerous low blood sugar incidents. Not once did it cause me to utter the word ‘nigger’.
Oooh, you said it just then!
< stones Typo_Negative >
Blood sugar must be a bit low…
Now scientists need to figure out the connection between Ambien and Type I Diabetes, the cause of all racism.
I don’t know how anyone who says something like that can say with a straight face, “I am not a racist.”
Duuude. You dropped the n-bomb on some teenagers. It’s time to do some soul - searching. The good news is you’re about to have a lot of free time on your hands!

But please call us “crazy”, which is not dismissively simplistic, offensive, or largely false, and does not marginalize women and their experiences?
I think we can arrive at a compromise here: it would be perfectly reasonable to refer to the movement currently known as “anti-vaxxer” as “Vaccine Risk Exaggerators” instead.
Because their defining characteristic is not that they are aware of vaccine risk (which everybody who’s ever had a vaccine has become aware of in reading that pharmaceutical info sheet they hand you), but rather that they wildly overestimate and hypothesize levels of vaccine risk for which there is zero valid evidence.
I regularly read the blog, https://respectfulinsolence.com/, which frequently covers anti-vaxxers, in some depth. A point “Orac”, aka Dr. David Gorski, repeatedly makes is that while a lot of rank-and-file “anti-vaxxers” might be more accurately described as “vaccine hesitant”, or as you suggest “Vaccine Risk Exaggerators”, the leaders pretty much are straight-up anti-vaccine.
The most famous example is mercury in vaccines. In the 90s, “Vaccine Risk Exaggerators” “exaggerated” the risks of mercury in vaccines. I put “exaggerated” in scare quotes because there was no risk from the mercury compound, ethylmercury aka thimerosal, that was used as a preservative in many vaccines. It’s just not biologically available to human beings. It’s firmly established that it simply passes through within a couple of days with no bioactivity at all. Despite that, the "VER"s blamed mercury toxicity from vaccinations for the autism “epidemic” and numerous other ills.
Still, there was a public outcry, and the FDA wound up banning thimerosal from childhood vaccines in 2001, in an effort to reassure the public and maintain confidence in the safety of childhood vaccines. Which, if thimerosal opponents were merely exaggerating the risks, should have reassured them, at least a little but. Nonesuch. You can still find claims in 2021 about supposed mercury toxicity from current childhood vaccines (even though they haven’t contained any in 20 years). Most anti-vaxxers have pivoted away from blaming mercury. But they still blame vaccines for autism, SIDS, and basically anything that’s wrong with their children or that they think is wrong with their children. Instead of mercury, now it’s the MMR combined vaccine, it’s “too many, too soon,” it’s aluminum toxicity, it’s formaldehyde, it’s aborted fetal tissue, it’s DNA fragments, it’s anything and everything, “risks” that are simply invented from whole cloth.
But above all, as Orac repeatedly points out, it’s the vaccines. It’s always the vaccines.
Perhaps the military could “take control” of Jeff Jansen & show him what that looks like. All in play of course, but it’ll be the worst week of his life.
I’m guessing alcohol was involved.
Police said the ordeal began when officers patrolling the beach saw a large group of people, and they began addressing disorderly conduct issues and other ordinance violations.
As additional officers arrived, police said a fight broke out, and ultimately the suspect was placed in the backseat of a cruiser. As the officer who placed the man in the cruiser walked to the front of the car to drive off, a person opened the door and the suspect escaped.
The man was identified by police as 18-year-old Dominic Glass. He is being charged with escape, disorderly conduct and resisting an officer without violence.
Police also said they have taken the person who opened the cruiser door into custody. Fox 13 reports he was identified as 18-year-old Adam Asad of Oldsmar. Asad has been charged with aiding prisoner escape and resisting arrest without violence.
It’s a lot easier to ditch an orange jail jumpsuit than it is to get out of real handcuffs. In either case you’re real obvious and attention-attracting to passersby until you do.
I wonder what Einstein’s plan was for after he started running?
Plan? I don’ need no steenkin’ plan!
Maybe a one man recreation of The Defiant Ones?
