Are you really making excuses for the cops tackling the sister of the boy they shot and neglecting to get him medical attention? Really?

I'd say as early as possible. If you lived in that town in Canada that's overrun with polar bears (which happily kill and eat people), you wouldn't wait to tell them polar bears are dangerous and how to avoid being killed by one. You'd drill that lesson into their heads the minute they were born.

I cannot even deal with this right now. How do i as a POC have this conversation with my nephew and my kids (that I don't have) about being black and "scary?" When is it appropriate to tell a black kid that he is cannon fodder?

Jesus, what did the people of Belize ever do to you?

I heard an alternate version:

Why was it a crime scene? The cops already know who shot the kid.

I've seen the slowdown instructions described as "only arrest someone if you have to".

I think the folks in Belize deserve better.

An incident happened in Boston that got absolutely no coverage in the mainstream press - just after New Years, a Boston cop beat an Uber driver, spewing a host of racial epithets during the event. Uber may have issues as a company, but I've used the service a number of times safely, and you have to remember - under…

The 2 police officers should at the VERY LEAST be in trouble for lying on their report about what happened. That Tamir was brandishing his weapon after being told 3 separate times to drop it is absolute BS.

Depends... are the Low Points minorities?

Q: How many cops does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

I'm curious what their endgame is. I mean, how long is this fucking pee-pants tantrum the NYPD is throwing going to last? My 6-year old is like this when he gets angry; he won't back down and gets madder even after he knows he's wrong until the breaks down crying and screaming. Is this what the police are going to do…

Q: How many cops does it take to kick a poor person down the stairs?


A: He fell.

Yeah, as much as I dislike Humanist Boyfriend, this one is really bad too. The thing with this guy is that he's just close enough to come off as a feminist, but when you're 5 days late or you want to have a discussion about how you both work full time but one of you is doing twice as much housework, he's never going…

Every time I hear about Chris Pratt, I'm all like:

thank you.

This seems like a great time for the concept of "it's rape if you feel like it's rape" (a concept that I'm normally not a fan of, because legalities.) If maintenance sex doesn't make you feel bad, and more often than not makes you feel at least a little bit better in some way, and most importantly, if you feel…
