Is there any more unexpected assassination than that of Nicky Santoro in Casino? His own crew whack him in the middle of a voice-over!

Frankly, as long as you understand it's meant to be a joke I don't give a shit.

*whoosh*

Does he acknowledge how his being overweight is very unhealthy and insist that nobody should copy him? Because I'm sure I can't find a comedian funny if they are overweight and act like it's no big deal, or that it is a big deal but also none of anybody's business, or - worst of all - make some self-deprecating…

The reason they're used that way is to show that the repression of minority groups actively harms everyone, not just the minority groups.

So if there's an example of - let's say - blackface and you don't want to write an entire essay on blackface because you know it will derail the rest of your review you're supposed to just not mention it? Except even that doesn't work, because you know that it's going to come up if not in actual comments, and really…

Haters.

Well she must be doing something right. She's just lost 25lbs in two comments.

Net neutrality campaigny

The broken window theory, obviously. Plants see that infrastructure spending is down 10% and so decide to stop photosynthesising.

Fictional characters behave in ways that support author's own beliefs! Film at 11.

Real talk, made-up numbers.

Not that there's actual official data or anything, but the Guardian's data project put the 2015 data at 7.22 cop shooting deaths per million for black Americans, 3.51 for Hispanic/Latino, 3.4 for Native American, 2.94 for white and 1.34 Asian/Pacific Islander.
