I read this earlier. Total abuse of authority on the cops who issued the citation. Noise/nuisance ordinances almost always pertain to car stereos, loud music, or in the case of a department dwelling, loud arguing neighbors. I could not tell if the officers heard her or took the word of the white woman. Unless Michigan…

It’s still not enough. It will never BE enough. The officers pulling this shit face no real consequences themselves, so they’ll just keep doing it. Nothing will change until the *officers* and their *union* are the ones who pay the price of fucking up and not the rest of society which has no say over officers being…

Came here to say something very similar:

if you own a gun, legally or illegally, and you make a death threat, you should no longer be allowed ownership of a firearm. 

A billionaire and their corporation suing another massive corporation for the money to air the advertising to convince people to buy shitty, non-nutritious food because it’s the cheapest option available. So that the owner, not necessarily the people who do the work, can look like some of the people who consume the…

Denial of exclusivity is not a blow to free press. The press is still free to write whatever they would like to write about her and her administration without fear of suppression - that is free press. Had she just not taken interviews from the white cishet male press corps, kept this a quiet protest, you bet your ass…

I think I would have died that day. I just don't know if mentally I would have been able to handle someone treating the remains of my baby like that, especially knowing everything she went through as she died. I just dont know. The cops would have either killed me or I would have been committed from a complete…

McDonald’s is a piece of shit from top to bottom when it comes to POC. They’ve also had lawsuits filed against them from Black franchise owners. They want our dollars, but treat us like bottom of the barrel customers. Let’s pull our billions of dollars in revenue from these racist ass basturrds, and watch how damn…

She's not banning anyone from covering City Hall. She's just going to do interviews one on one with journalists who tend to not get a crack at interviewing big city mayors. 

If there’s nothing wrong with you, a formerly 18 year-old man, marrying (and impregnating and divorcing) a 14 year-old child, then what could possibly be so “dirty” about researching and reporting on the story?

Makes those, “Calvin’s got a job,” and “365 Black (that only air in Feb)” commercials hit different. I understand why many people see Byron Allen’s lawsuits as self serving but he has a point and makes people realize while lining his pockets just how locked out Black Americans are. Bootstrappers simply can’t deny the…

Appreciate you sharing that gem. Welp! That lil rotten apple didn’t fall far from the rapey fam tree. Ol’ Playa is trying to get ahead of two tainted tales by spraying Poo-Pourri on them. Nah, we see him.

Got a different figure? Because that would seem plausible when you consider the tendency of McDonald’s to make a lot of sales from impoverished areas and especially food deserts.

cherry pick which journalists are ALLOWED to cover them

That is not what she said.

Why is it that the need for consistency is only enforced on those who are already on the shit end of the stick when it comes to how they’re treated?

I don’t give a fuck.

“Recently, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot announced that as she approaches the two-year anniversary of her historic win, she’s giving one-on-one interviews to mark the occasion but only to journalists of color.”

Is this interview tour going to be a series of exclusives where the white men who cover City Hall and politics in general are left out in the cold and have no ability to report on civic matters to their readers? Is Lightfoot going to POC reporters to tell them about how she’s going to screw over all of the white…

The double standard is the point...not what Trump did or didn’t do.
