  his murder was a crime and justice must be done, but it's sobering to learn more about the man who is being lionised by millions.

  thanks as always to the courageous candace owens.. ....

  Biden says 10-15% of American's "are just not good people". I suspect those are Hillary's deplorables.

  I wonder if law enforcement has an internal deplorable chart and is working their way down the list?

  i still like the commentary on the jw.org monthly’s, i can skip through some parts.

  but it seems like he is pushing too hard to put out videos and the quality is getting very low on the content..

  *I just checked and Barbara’s documents site seems to be gone, that’s a shame. There were some rare documents not found elsewhere.

  And I see your point. Yes that is exactly it. Black Lives Matter has cornered the market and now nobody can infringe on the copyright.

  I think the struggle for justice and equality will go nowhere until entitlements and sole possession of public sympathy through snappy slogans are used.

  Stop calling my plea for equality supremacist and racist and shitting on a counteractive slogan.

  Every attorney can argue for or against a defendant equally and everyone accepts it.

  And so it is with all these race issues. We need to find accepting behaviors instead of divisive ones.

  Don't tell me I don't understand. Don't label me. If you think I need educating on the subject teach me.

  But nobody is making intellectual sense.

  We all feel bad that black men are being killed by police.

  They and their deaths are no more important or special than all other people killed by police.

  And the police who are killed by everyone deserve some grievance as well. I HATE it when a police officer is killed. They sign up to protect people. Imagine doing their job right now when the entire world is trying to paint them as killers of black people. Asinine.

  Show me scientific evidence and statistics that explain why the world needs a Black Lives Matter movement instead of or above any other "this life" matters movement.

  White people don't want to say that. They do want to say All Lives Matter. Then they are called racists.

  I hear you minimus. Apparently though I don't get it and thinking "all lives matter" makes me a racist. But I'm full Italian so I've been called worse my whole life.

  When my daughters were in high school I questioned the school board about funding ethnic clubs for African, Mexican, Asian & Armenian students. Thousands of dollars allocated to their clubs each year. Where the fuck was the Pale Ass White American club and why couldn't they get a slice of the pie? For context, students attempted to start one but it was denied as being supremacist or racist.

  I also agree with Drew Brees. You disrespect the American Flag by kneeling prior to a football game, I don't care what you are trying to symbolize by using the Flag as a prop. You are wrong. Find another avenue.

  Drew pussied out amongst the current storm.

  Do Black Lives Matter?

  It actually is starting to require some extra thought. I'm not sure any lives matter anymore.

  i haven't shared any of my podcasts here in a long time but since i started a new type of episode i thought some might like it.

  welcome to the first episode of the shunned success stories series.

  in this episode we meet kelsey and get to learn from her path as she went from a homeschooled member of jehovah’s witnesses to recently being accepted to attend mit.

  Thank you!

  I appreciate a little slice of happiness through positive story in these sad times of pandemic, confusion, rioting and sharp divide among humans on every issue. An example for anyone like her to rise from the shameful practice of shunning and the devastating doldrums it usually brings to instead a bright hopeful future. MIT will absolutely transform her life in ways most of us could only dream about.

  Boeing, Spacex, and NASA love MIT brains. I hear an astronauts voice in her. Space is our future. We all want off the planet.

  You also have a very pleasant and soothing voice. Confident, eloquent and reassuring.

  If Floyd had a squeaky clean record, a basic choir boy, community leader, mother hen of fatherless boys...

  Would that make a difference to how people feel about the way he was killed? Would there be even more outrage or would it be the same?

  Does pointing to his faults act like a salve for people completely disturbed by how he was killed?

  Does dwelling on his faults justify his killing for some?

  If we were not all on lock down for months and had a million other things to do, like go to a ball game, movie, club, bar, gym, would anyone even care about Floyd? Would these protests even be happening?

  my parents are in there late 60s, they have a net worth of 2 to 3 million dollars and a 2500 sq ft home.

  my dad works a hobby job at a service station for boredom reasons.

  it’s a kiosk type between glass but it does require some contact with the public.

  My mom delivers MaryKay and she's 74. Never stayed at home. Refuses to wear a mask.

  It's keeping her happy and alive despite the bullshit disillusionments she clings onto with the JWs.

  Don't doubt or step in the way of superheroes.
