Oddly enough even freep (FREEP !) seems to be 100% on the side of the dead black guy for once. The fact that the cop is a female seems to play a factor, as is the “he was on his property and he did not have to do nuffing she said !” part.
I mean obviously had the shooting occurred literally 2 meters from his front door it would have changed the response significantly but whaddaya know. So “my house, my castle, he should have shot that bitch !” seems to trump both “people should obey the cops at all times if they want to live” and “negroes are inherently dangerous and fit to be shot”.
The more you know.
Bear in mind that freep•com is the domain of The Detroit Free Press which is very, very, very, [very many ‘verys’] very different from Free Republic. Though, freepers do tend to be anti-establishment, and the police are establishment.
The Buffalo-area congressman faces charges of securities fraud, wire fraud and false statements related to alleged insider trading.
He originally suspended his campaign to better fight the scurrilous charges against him:rolleyes:
Now he wants to go again not with the best wishes from the local Republican party -
“Erie County Republican Committee chairman Nick Langworthy said Monday that there was a “crystal clear way” to replace Collins, but that it hinged on his cooperation.”
Now, Collins’ decision to move forward with his re-election could put his solidly Republican seat in jeopardy.
“This is a big curveball,” Langworthy said.
Of course, Cheeto expressed his discontent with the DOJ for doing their jobs saying they should have held off until after the election when Collins is safely in his house seat before charging him. Can you believe it? His own DOJ is in cahoots with the deep state.:eek:
You mean an OK sign? Do we actually know that this “WP” symbol is being used that way, or are the press just looking for Nazis in the government out of paranoia?
Could be an OK sign, could be white power, could be power rangers activate, or could be raising a flag for like-minded power tops seeking friends. We will never know!
It’s definitely a WP sign now - when was the last time you saw a guy do that sign as “OK” in the last 20 years (unless you’re a SCUBA diver) ?
The alt-right deliberately picked an innocuous gesture for maximum trollage and painting people who get upset by it as irrational to people who aren’t savvy to alt-right memes. Then it morphed into a bona fide group identifier, as these things tend to.
Which is goddamned annoying, because I’ve used the OK sign for *decades *and it’s a pretty ingrained habit. I do not like that idea that I’m going to have to train myself out of it because of a bunch of jerks.:mad::mad:
I am part of the Resistance inside Beto O’Rourke’s campaign, and I have personally swiped a memo from his desk, the prototype of a future executive order that would put people who use “y’all” on death row without a trial. He immediately noticed it was missing and hit me upside the head with a baseball bat stamped with the words “IMMA MESS WITH TEXAS”. The man ain’t playin’, y’all.
The key is context. Most people who do the OK sign don’t feel the need to do so surreptitiously. On the other hand, when my wife signals me as I’m pulling out of the driveway to see if I have my lunch, it is unlikely that I would choose that exact time to blatantly indicate to her my support of the white race.
Your brief synopsis doesn’t due justice to the sheer absurdity of the claims.
Not only has Gillum shown no interest in enacting an income tax, but in order to do so he would have to Amend to Florida Constitution with the support of 60% of the citizens. At which point it would cease to be an campaign issue that could be used against him.
The contortions that DeSantis has gone through to bring in child molestation is even more absurd. His argument is that under the idea of sanctuary cities, if an illegal immigrant is convicted of child molesting, and is released after he serves his 5-15 year sentence, he might not be deported.
First off, the complaint about sanctuary cities is that local jurisdictions might not hold undocumented immigrants while they wait for ICE to come pick them up. But if ICE can’t get its act together given 5-15 years to prepare to pick this guy up, then its not the states fault.
Second, if the problem is releasing child molesters, his solution only applies to the relatively small number that happen to be illegal immigrants. If your really scared of child molesters leaving jail after serving their time, you should be campaigning on mandatory life sentences, not immigration.
