“Well voting isn’t exactly ‘rebellion’. It’s kinda the opposite of rebellion. To rebel you have to confront authority. That’s pretty much the definition of rebellion.”

“As someone who’s american and also from a nationality that had been under fascist control since the late 70s’, I call bullshit. Rebellion STARTS from standing up against local authority. And guess what, that means facing the police, or any organisation that’s tasked with patrolling your local streets.”

“Can you describe any of the ‘many ways to do it’ that don’t involve non-compliance with law enforcement at some stage?”

“The fact that their first option is to kill is the problem.”

“I love how white men that claim to live in fear of ‘government tyranny’ and believe that it is righteous to rebel against it are the first ones to insist that all black people should strictly obey every police officer like a submissive dog. And they’re completely and utterly oblivious to the irony.”

Thanks, Gawker. Keep the propaganda going. Very helpful. Some loose canon loses his patience and demonstrates why he is doing a job for which he is unfit, so let’s stoke the flames of nonsense, and use it to feed into the false narrative that all cops are targeting black people all the time. Super helpful. I mean…

Kind of a pointless exercise. The drones that support this criminal will do so regardless of her crimes or lies.

“You do know that name calling is not the same as an argument, right?”

“group who quite literally raise their children to think of other races as animals.

“who actually raise their children to believe that people of another race are animals,”

“The moment you refer to any humans as animals, barbarians, etc., it starts a process of exclusion which, no matter how a/political you perceive their actions to be, will trickle down to the wider population no matter how semantically careful you think you’re being.”

“a phrase that gets flung around with the careless impunity of a toddler with a bag of superballs.”

The criminal activities of the IRS, FOR WHICH THEY APOLOGIZED, were “investigated” and no evidence of wrongdoing was found there either, apparently. Your point? Laws were broken. Just like with Planned Parenthood. Granted, the laws broken by Planned Parenthood are of a much more grisly, inhumane, cruel, disgusting…

“I see. So you purport to speak for all Republicans. If you honestly believe that millions of Americans are willing to consign themselves to hunger and homelessness all in the name of closing Planned Parenthood, then you’re even more delusional than Donald Trump.”

Well there are two of us having a conversation here. One of us is GOP... either you or I. Didn’t mean to stump you with “us.” ಠ_ಠ

“I bet you $1,000,000 that “most” GOP-leaning retirees would absolutely NOT give up their primary income source just to stick it to Planned Parenthood.”

“Can you please provide some facts on that statement? Sources even. Because I hear this a lot, and no one can ever provide me with a straight answer. He is only as bad as the House of Representatives and the Senate make him out to be.”

Pretty decent sense of humor here, actually. Saw Mitch Hedburg, have seen Jo Koy twice so far. Here’s a tip for comedy in the future, if that’s what you’re going for - when they say, “open with a joke,” don’t use “bite my crank.” Insulting your audience will fail every time.

“Wow. This is a great sentence. And I am glad you finally see the light. Does that mean you will start donating money to homeless shelters and help people who go hungry everyday?”
