The point flew over your head. I didn’t say Rittenhouse wasn’t legally entitled to defend himself from an imminent threat to his life, I said that imminent threat would not have existed absent his illegal open carrying, since he wouldn’t have had a gun for Rosenbaum to try to take away.

Fact: It is illegal for a minor to open carry in Wisconsin. Rittenhouse was 17 at the time. He doesn’t commit that crime, there’s no gun to take away, his life isn’t in danger, no self defense necessary.

I really don’t understand how the fuck it can be considered “self-defense” when this fat fuck cop wannabe illegally took his rifle across state lines (can’t open carry under the age of 18 in Wisconsin). If he had just stayed his dumb ass home, he would never have been “attacked” and those people would still be alive.

I saw a t-shirt design on Twitter with DTJ’s face and the slogan “My daddy wants to bang my sister”.

Supposedly the leader of “Cowboys For Trump” has realized it and is mad that he and his fellow insurrectionists are the ones in jail and not Hillary.

I suggested Simmons for Kyrie in another thread. The one thing the Sixers are seriously lacking right now is shot creators. And the Nets have basically no perimeter defense. Brooklyn could afford more than any other team to keep Ben off the floor in crunch time until he solves his free throw issues because of KD and…

It’s especially weird because what after all is art if not an expression of the artist’s self? Is it a coincidence that Woody Allen typically plays a nebbish, neurotic New Yorker obsessed with younger women? 

He’s always been a top notch defensive player, no one questions that. But his offensive game has not developed at all. His rookie year he went 16/8/8 and last year he went 14/7/7. How do your numbers go down in your 4th year in the league when you’re making max money? Look at the best players in the league - LeBron,…

His momma name him Kanye, I’mma call him Kanye.

Can they, though? Is there any offer out there that gets them past the second round where they’ve seemingly gotten stuck? The path was wide open last year with the Nets’ and Lakers’ injuries and they blew their golden opportunity. Is there an example of a team that was forced to trade an All-Star for pennies on the…

Simmons made the mess by refusing to work on his game for three straight offseasons. Dude is literally getting worse every year and it culminated with his vanishing act in the playoffs. They didn’t “bad mouth him all summer”, Rivers answered a question honestly and Embiid made a true statement about the worst…

There’s nothing inherent in the word “pornography” that means nonconsensual - it simply means explicit sexual content. When modified by terms such as “child” and “revenge”, those imply lack of consent. “Deepfake porn” does sorta kinda imply something similar as revenge porn; however, there is an argument that because…

Where did they get their stats from?

I lived in PV for a couple of years and the Confederate flag would decidedly not have been out of place: https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-racist-prom-proposal-palos-verdes20190515-story.html

Forget fetuses, kids who aren’t old enough to have a driver’s license shouldn’t count towards HOV lanes either. The whole point of them is to reduce the number of cars on the road thus reducing emissions, so unless you have another licensed adult in the car, you aren’t helping.

Morey is holding out hoping the Blazers fall apart and Dame demands out so that he can send Simmons, Thybulle, and picks for him. McCollum doesn’t get the Sixers any closer to a title.

The obvious solution here - trade the guy who won’t get a shot for the guy who won’t take a shot. Kyrie Irving for Ben Simmons (and picks), who says no?

It’s really weird - you’d think Dungy of all people would be pissed off how his team was handed to Gruden, though I guess winning a Super Bowl himself assuaged some of that bitterness. OTOH, Dungy expressed some of the same sentiment about Michael Sam (though in much less directly offensive terms) so maybe he just…

Still one of my favorite pictures of all time:

I’ve hated Bobby Flay ever since his disrespectful display on Iron Chef (the original Japanese show, not the weak American clone):
