According to the comments on St. Louis papers, the local community is pretty clear that she deserved to be shot to death after two assaults with a deadly weapon.

Yes, the police shooting was in self-defense.

Did someone’s opinion on a song hurt your feeling, little Snowflake?

It’s like a lost verse of “We Didn’t Start the Fire.”

In 1997, I was a gay boy in high school, in a state adjacent to Tennessee. Had I been subjected to an attack like this I might have hurt myself- I certainly wouldn’t have gotten a six figure pay-out.

Cosigned.

IO9-er here- and sick of the racism getting a pass on there post-Gizmodofication.

He doesn’t need your $10- he trolled Michael into posting a bunch of abusive racist jokes (“Placenta”) about Black people directly onto the Root website itself, resulting in him, in essence, getting to tell these racist jokes directly to the faces of thousands and thousands of black people with no consequences.

If you don’t want to spend money- you could always look up the list of their stations, call their station in YOUR LOCAL COMMUNITY, and tell them you appreciate Gray Television letting them know how incompetent and vindictive they, and by extension YOUR LOCAL AFFILIATE, is.

“Where’s Charles Bronson when you need him?”

Sometimes people notice A and B are correlated, and try to make one the cause of the other, when in fact both A and B are caused by C.

You sound unhappy.

I recognize myself in this piece.

The “race dying out”comments appears alongside “ratchet Wal-Mart workers”- as a “quoted” by a middle school child’s mother. (They are direct quotes of a mother describing a child’s summary, not a direct quote from the teacher.)
