Are you fucking stupid. The guy wasn’t a drug dealer, and was exercising his second amendment rights by owning a fire arm. Unknown fuckers break in his door and start shooting (per witness accounts, cops fired first) and he returned fire. Its fucking self defense at this point. Fuck you and your racist fucking ass. If

Reporting a weapon stolen is the easy way for the owner to claim  loss of custody so when its used in a murder they can claim its not theirs.  I’m sure they have the gun tucked away for some other purpose.

So, does not the same standard of self-defense apply to Ahmaud? Can you not say, seeing a man with a shotgun he reasonably fear for his life and felt his only recourse was to disarm the man with the weapon. Why does self-defense only apply to the person holding the gun (read the white guy). You don’t know what threats

If this was a just world they will apply the death penalty to the felony murder charge that has been laid. I’m not pro-death penalty, but I wouldn’t mind sacrificing a few racists to finally push forward with capital punishment reform.

The upper limit for his charges is 150kph in Ontario.  So unless the calibration was so off it was DOUBLE the speed he was actually going, he’s fucked.

Doesn’t matter, if he was doing 308kph or 150kph both carry the same stunt driving charges in Ontario. The only thing you could argue would be other reckless endangerment charges. But they would do that at 150kph as well.

Seeing as the US and Liberia are the only countries in the world that have grand juries, I think you guys will be just fine.

This was not being held up by grand jury. There is a grand jury standing at ALL times in states that require grand juries for indictment. IF the police were willing they could have arrested the men (they didnt) and while holding them for processing convened the grand jury and obtained the necessary indictment. Grand

Fuck off, he has one shop lifting charge as a fucking teenager.

I hate to break it to you but you don’t need meat for iron and can get plenty from fish and vegetables. There are fish options that have LOTS of heme-iron for you. You can go vegan without needing iron substitutes and you don’t need just legumes and nuts for protein. That’s a COMPLETE fallacy. I understand you had a

People need to stop saying the food supply chain is breaking. The INDUSTRIAL MEAT SUPPLY chain is breaking. There is plenty of food out there and Americans can do without eating the 5lbs of meat per person per week that they consume.  Hell the planet will be better off if the american industrial meat complex were to

I really hope people are looking into what ties Trump has to hydroxychloroquine producers.  The Huffington Post (I know, not reliable) ran a story a few weeks ago that he did have a stake in a company.  But it sorta vanished and didn’t show up in other media.

Didn’t say there wasn’t morons here. I was speaking to the timing of implementing restrictions. Its not all holding hands and singing kum ba yah here, but we certainly don’t have resistance on the scale on display here. I agree with you that individualism in the US is probably the main reason for this sort of thing. I

Sure, Detroit has a worse socioeconomic situation compared to say Toronto but that factors into the outcomes of the disease not the epidemiological spread. So yes, death rates will be higher for sure. If the spread was based on socioeconomic situations New York wouldn’t be as bad as it was or Seattle. The extreme

But that falsely accounts for the large size of Northern Ontario, with is small population and low case load. Southern Ontario is 91 people per sq km and accounts for the majority of the population at 12.7 million. So it is DIRECTLY comparable. Toronto, a larger city than Detroit (and more similar to New York than

This blows my mind. I live in Ontario (the GTA) and when I look at Michigan I see what could have happened here if we didn’t enact measures early. Lets compare Ontario to Michigan

People are fucking dying.

I’m as anti-trump as the next guy (I’m Canadian and vote NDP), but sometimes the narrative needs to take a break. In this case, medical advice would be (as it is in Canada with Justin Trudeau) not to be tested until you have symptoms. To isolate yourself and perform monitoring. Tests should be used when appropriate,

It doesn’t remove the loss or the significance of the event. But it wasn’t WRONG. Just because a terrible thing happens doesn’t mean there has to be fault. We need to prioritize helping people and we have a system that saves millions of lives every year by doing just that. I fail to see how you can just say its wrong.
