News of the Day III

Here’s another good read …

Indeed. Disregarding the particulars and merits of the Ritt case, this will NOT be the last time we see wanna-be texas rangers show up at social justice protests, whether in Boise, Lansing or Atlanta. And that is exactly what you and many of us have referenced in this whole legal debacle. It is only going to get worse, more violent and deadly.

They were putting themselves in the line of fire by chasing down and beating on somebody who was not actively shooting anyone and running away?

They went after somebody who had a long gun in hand who was running and who was being chased by other people that were saying he shot somebody. There had just been gunshots. Why is this so hard for you to understand?

Not sure where you all are getting the hero bit from, probably something you are slurping up from the media shills. Calling anybody heroes that night is just pandering to morons.

Some people called them heroes, I didn't say they were heroes, I said that if there were any it wasn't Rittenhouse. He's a stupid little shit who put himself voluntarily in the middle of a bad situation, got scared, and shot people. He knew it was a bad situation so he brought a gun and body armor. It's his f'ing fault!

I don't think you appreciate what the phrase "putting yourself in the line of fire" means if you think this is equitable.

This is almost an acceptable stance, he deserves blame for being there armed. Just don't try and argue that means he intended to murder people, it's a really obvious converse error.

Time to cancel the Rittenhouse worship, lol

What did Rittenhouse do to provoke the situation? Did Rittenhouse pursue the decadents or did he flee? I think you've hit peak confirmation bias

Come on. You aren’t this obtuse. He went to Kenosha. He had no business being there at 1 am. He completely provoked the situation. He never attempted to flee. He marched up and down the street with his gun like the Proud Boy that he is.

Oh, I’m sorry. He’s a self proclaimed BLM supporter.

I guess his meeting with the Proud Boys, flashing the White Power sign and wearing his Free as Fuck shirt was just to grift them into paying for his vacation to Charlotte County. Because being a BLM supporter, I’m sure he isn’t down here to meet with the local residents, Steve Bannon and Michael Flynn.

This is pure comedy. You're right, the situation is more like invading someones home and executing them. You have lost your damn mind.

If 6 people haven't been able to explain to you the problem with an underage kid traveling 20 miles, across state borders, breaking curfew, going into a riot zone carrying a loaded AK-47, without anyone asking him to be there, kill 2 people and shoot another and then to be able to claim self defense and get away with it, then I don't think anyone can get though to you.

You continue to mischaracterize that I said there was no problem to support your ignorant and already proven false claim that murder was committed. Carrying an AK-47, yikes.....The world exists outside this message board DD, the emperor has no clothes

This new strain is not good news

[Hoek]

Too early to say for certain how bad it really is. A lot of reports of it being milder so far and no evidence that it actually gets around vaccines. So far 0% of the hospitalized with this new strain are vaccinated.

I thought this was a pretty good synopsis. I think regardless, every new strand comes new casualties

Warren is such a shill, can't believe I ever considered voting for her, I think we seen her true colors when she fake snitched on Sanders

[Hoek]

For someone that supposedly knows a lot about banking and the economy she sure says some dumb things, like blaming inflation in certain sectors as only caused by greed by corporations, when they could've jacked prices up ages ago if that was the case.

Trying to harness populist BS that she probably doesn't even believe herself. Placing a target on a group of people and assigning blame, sounds familiar and not very presidential
