I ate sushi with Vordul once. This doesn’t have anything to do with anything, I’ve just been waiting for over a decade to have a justification to brag about it, and I don’t think I’ll ever have a better opportunity.

Yes, and a defense attorney is given wide latitude and broad discretion to determine what the best defense is. I don’t know why you have “legally” underlined there, as though imperfect self-defense isn’t.

Could be his lawyer believes he’s going to prison no matter what, so he’s shooting for a finding of “imperfect self-defense” in order to mitigate the sentence as much as possible.  I notice he said the bum “thought” he was acting in self-defense, but didn’t mention anything about that belief being reasonable.

Yeah, I hate that shit.  There’s always some white saying, “Hey, my father is a cop!”  As if that makes a difference.  They always look at me crazy when I say, “Fuck your daddy too.”

And actually, they will probably find a way to water it down so much that it only helps white people.

I would never underestimate the depths of don’s pettiness, but I really believe he called the man Peter S because even he knew that he couldn’t spell “Strzok.”

I lose it every time I see this picture because when it was first making the rounds, someone commented, “She’s not supposed to be sitting while the president is standing, let alone sprawled out like a thot,” and I’ve never forgotten it.

YES.  Very few things make me as immediately frustrated as hearing that phrase does.  I want it eradicated from the English language.  Where did white people even come up with that?

There are other tells, too. One of them is that they’ll repeat some stereotype or myth that white people believe but that they would know was false if they were actually black. For example:

That’s when Barnes walked up to her and shoulder bumped her and said, “I’m white. Have you seen the news?”

Remember when he got cornrows?

Don’t even know how to stop.

You’re right because he apparently told her to her face he’d shoot her, and she still “gets on great” with him.  Honestly, I’ve cut off family members for less.

Sister should have disowned him already for being that ugly.  God did that to him for a reason.

As a reformed Texan, it pains me to even think about it.

I was thinking the same thing. I was also thinking about how incongruous it is for a main who refers to his wife as “mother” to say “aint.”  You don’t have the credibility, Mike, you don’t have the sauce.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who immediately was reminded of this song and has had it in my head ever since.

I’m introducing myself this way from now on.
