Secondly, an addict usually knows his limits
Right, cause there are no addicts that die of an overdose.
anyone following the derek chauvin trial?.
if you are actually following it, not just listening to the media, you will likely realize that there is a huge gap between what is going on in court and what is being reported in the media.. if the trial was fair, i think he should be acquitted.
there is plenty of reasonable doubt about the cause of death (his dealer doesn't want to testify because he could be guilty of 3rd degree murder for selling him a fatal amount of fentanyl) and even doubt over whether the officer even had his knee on the guys neck or did anything counter to what they were meant to do as per policy.. but is it fair?

I don't believe Floyd died of asphyxiation. Most likely a combination of drugs and stress of the situation. I still think Chauvin is a dick who mishandled this situation. He deserves some sort of punishment. But the person to really be blamed here is Floyd, for being a criminal who doesn't know how to act after being caught.
It's hard to imagine the repercussions that this incident has caused across all sectors of society. BTW, United Airlines announced today that they will make sure that 50% of pilots are minorities. Think about that for a minute. Picking airline pilots based on skin color.
The Floyd incident has given strength to the Woke mob. It has opened the door to all sorts of irrational ideas that are now infecting all parts of society. Believe it or not, I would argue that this incident is changing the world with a comparable impact as 9/11 did.
One criminal that would otherwise would have probably overdosed in a street corner, or be killed by his peers in the ghetto, in his own stupidity by refusing the get in a police's car, has changed much of the world.
today, i was watching a tv show and a black celebrity in quebec said that his latest incident of racial profiling was being asked questions by the police as he was walking in a quiet neighborhood at 2am while wearing a hoody.
then the other guest next to him validated his claim saying that she, as a white women, was never stopped like this by the police.
i became very frustrated and agitated.
Calling someone or something "racist" should be done carefully.
Not anymore. It is now a simple (and often effective) way to try to silence others, or to shut down policy that is against one's own ideology.
For example the voting law that went into effect in Georgia. Didn't favor the left, so as expected they immediately called it racism, just like they do with everything else. That is the new move.
Being called a racist carried some weight, but it's getting to the point where it will be meaningless. It will get much worse before it gets any better.
terrible news out of colorado this morning of a mass shooting in a supermarket leaving 10 dead.. missing from the homepage of cnn is any description of the shooter.
that's because it's a muslim refugee from syria who was apparently anti-trump and not a "maga white guy" which would otherwise be included in every headline.. more kids in cages than ever before (but strangely, now no one in the media seems to care) and now this.. biden doesn't have the magic wand he promised after all, right?.
you consider the fact the M16 was actually developed and made by armour lite you are really splitting hairs if you think there is much difference between an AR-15 and a M-16 carbine . ( or whatever it is called now).
Yes there is a big difference. The AR 15 is not an assault weapon, you press the trigger and it shoots one bullet. In the state that I live in, an AR 15 can only have a maximum of 10 bullets, the same maximum as a handgun.
Part of the problem is that the design of the AR 15 looks like a military weapon, but it's just a rifle.
i find it interesting that we live in a cancel culture.
the influencers go after abraham lincoln, uncle ben , aunt jemima, the flag, the national anthem, people they perceive as not following their agenda.
in the midst of all of this, rap music and its dehumanizing culture are off limits to talk about.
How ya doin, ma n*gga?
You don't find it silly that we put an asterisk in a place of a letter as if that makes any difference? And why does it have to be the "i"?
How about nigg*, is that ok? What about ni*ga, also good?
It's almost as if by using an asterisk, people are saying: "hey i'm saying a bad word but i'm a good person".
The whole thing is stupid. If write n*gga, you know i'm saying nigga, so why not use the right words? as if you spell it completely, it has magical powers over the audience.
Or it because you are one of those people that thinks if somehow a 12 year old sees words spelled as n*gga, f*ck, d*ck, c*ck, sh*t or similar, they won't figure it out and therefore won't learn a new bad word. Cause your sorely mistaken..
Poor f*ck*ng vowels, they always pay the price.
does using uncle ben’s food products offend you?.
are you offended if you see a flag?
what about a confederate flag?.
I understand Columbia University will have segregated graduation this year (if you can believe that). One graduation for blacks, another for latin, another for transgender. Just insane stuff.
The woke mob has gone so far to the extreme that they have done a full circle to pretty much what racists actually want.
whether you are in the usa or another country, are you for it or against it?.
I think immigration should be STRICTLY controlled. I think the U.S.'s having open borders would rapidly turn it into a third world country. Hell, I'm even for controlling our own internal population growth.
Amen and Amen.
I believe right now we are admitting about 1,000,000 immigrants per year. That is a lot and that is enough. It should all be legal, and by the way we should be hunting down people who overstay their visa and kicking them out.
Same thing with people crossing the border illegally. Give them 1 month jail time, then deport them. inform them that next offense will be 6 months. 3rd offense 1 year.
I'm not sure if there will be every be a president who would be able to do something like that. To be able to survive the accusations of racism by the woke mobs.
i just watched the oprah interview.
i know that many view them with little interest as just entitled wastes of space and i get that.. however, the description of how they were "trapped" and silenced and forced into perpetuating the system with little or no personal freedom rang bells for me.
they are effectively shunned, estranged and disparaged by their family and cut off from support.
cry me a river.
Being in the royal family is basically being a character. You get all of the perks that come with being royalty and in exchange you need to follow the script, which is to say go where they tell you, represent the way they want you to.
Nobody should feel sorry for them. They want to leave the "show"? Well leave, i don't care.
how are they handling the memorial this year?
zoom or open kh's?
how do they reject the wine & bread in their own home?
I can't understand why each person has to have their own red wine and bread.
You can't? I do. It's called controlling people.
Even if you believe in the goat herder bronze age user guide, where does it say that people who do not partake have to touch the emblems at all?
Evidently Jellohoba is not powerful enough to protect Jdubs from covid during the special time of the year. Turns out he is as effective as protecting you from covid as Zeus, Thor, or any other fake god.
that’s what coca-cola is telling their employees.
.
this is ridiculous!.
on UK tv adverts--there has been a huge increase in the number of "black" persons featured recently
Yup, in the U.S. as well. But it's so clearly fake, forced and not organic at all. They are simply doing it out of fear that someone will say that they didn't have any black people on their commercials. That's all.
And btw, why is it that blacks are the only race to somehow get you a get-out-of-jail card to prevent racial accusations? Why can't an Asian person, or a native american be enough to show support for diversity?
